About the station number
When you start charging the battery, “HANDSET 1”
appears on the display of the cordless handset. This
shows the ID number for each cordless handset and base
unit of the system, called “station number.” The station
number of the base unit is set to 0 and that of the cordless
handset (supplied with the base unit) is set to 1 at the
factory. The station number of the cordless handset
newly added to the system will be one of the number 2
through 4 in the order of registration. (See “Registering
additional cordless handsets” on page 23.)
Battery duration
A fully charged battery pack lasts for about:
• Approx. 5 hours when you use the cordless handset continuously
• Approx. 6 days when the cordless handset is in standby mode.
Notes
• The battery pack will gradually discharge over a long period of time, even
when not in use.
• If you leave the battery pack in the cordless handset without charging it, the
battery pack will be completely discharged.
It may require several times of charging to recover to its full capacity.
• While charging, the battery pack warms up. This is not a malfunction.
To obtain the best performance from the battery
Do not place the cordless handset on the base unit after each call. The
battery works best if the cordless handset is returned to the base unit
after two or three calls. However, do not leave the cordless handset off
the base unit for a long period of time as this will completely discharge
the battery pack.
When to purchase a new battery pack
If the battery lasts only a few minutes even after 12 hours of charging,
the usable life of the battery has expired and needs replacement.
Contact your local Sony authorized dealer or service center, and ask
for a Sony BP-T38 rechargeable battery pack.
Note
Battery life may vary depending on usage condition and ambient temperature.
