The freedom that your cordless telephone can offer is fully dependent on the
performance of the rechargeable battery in the handset. To maximize the battery
performance, follow these guidelines:
Charge the battery for a full 15 continuous hours
Before initial use of your new battery, charge it for 15 hours continuously. The proper
initial charging is very important to maximize the battery performance.
Keep the contacts clean
You can never fully recharge the battery if the contacts are dirty. Clean all the
contacts (two at the bottom of handset and two in the base cradle) periodically using
a pencil eraser.
MAXIMIZE BATTERY PERFORMANCE
Do not replace the handset in the base after each call
Repeated short charging creates a memory effect in the battery. Once a rechargeable
battery acquires this “short memory”, it sends a “CHARGE BATTERY” signal even
when it is almost fully charged. The battery then needs to be charged frequently. To
avoid this, leave the handset away from the cradle until it really needs recharging.
Refresh battery
If your battery seems to need recharging more often than usual, it may have lost part
of its charging capacity because of premature recharges. To bring back its full
capacity, try “refreshing” the battery:
1. First discharge the battery by leaving the handset in TALK mode until Battery
Low indication turns on. (Disconnect the base from the telephone line, so that
your line is not busy all the time.)
2. Then charge it for 15 continuous hours.
3. Repeat the above once more.
