Installation
1. Press down and slide off the battery
pack compartment cover.
2. Lift the battery pack out of the compart-
ment.
3. Plug the bat-
tery pack's con-
nector into the
socket in the
compartment,
(the connector
fits only one
way), replace the battery pack, and
replace the cover.
To charge the battery pack, place the hand-
set either faceup or facedown on the base.
The CHARGE/IN USE indicator on the base
lights and
Total:00
appears.
Note:
Be sure the battery is properly con-
nected before you try to charge it. The
CHARGE/IN USE indicator flashes when the
handset is on the base with the battery not
connected.
Recharge the battery pack when
Low
Bat-
tery
flashes.
Notes:
When you first use the phone after
charging or recharging the battery pack,
the phone might not work and you might
hear a beep when you press
TALK
.
Return the handset to the base for about
5 seconds to reset the security access-
protection code.
If the base loses power for 60 minutes
while the handset is away from it or the
the handset’s battery pack is completely
discharged, the security access-protec-
tion code might be lost. To reset the
code, return the handset to the base for
about 5 seconds.
Using a pencil eraser, clean the charg-
ing contacts on the handset and base
about once a month.
If the battery pack becomes weak during
a call, the handset beeps every 3 sec-
onds and
Low
Battery
flashes. When
this happens, you cannot make a call
until you recharge the battery pack.
About once a month, fully discharge the
battery by keeping the handset off the
base until
Low
Battery
flashes. Oth-
erwise, the battery pack loses its ability
to fully recharge.
If the display is blank and the phone
does not work, recharge the battery
pack. (The battery power might be too
low to light the display.)
If you are not going to use your phone
for an extended period of time, discon-
nect the battery pack. This increases the
battery pack's usable life.
The supplied battery pack should last about
a year. If the battery pack does not hold a
charge for more than 2 hours after an over-
night charge, replace it with a new 3.6-volt,
600 mAh battery pack with a connector that
fits the socket in the battery compartment.
You can order a replacement battery pack
through your local RadioShack store. Install
the new battery pack and charge it for about
24 hours.
Warning:
Dispose of the old battery pack
promptly and properly. Do not burn or bury it
(see “Battery Safety Instructions” on Page 6
for additional information on proper battery
handling).
If you have trouble replacing the battery
pack, take the phone to your local
RadioShack for assistance.
