Battery Information
Fully charged, the battery should provide about 10 hours of talk time and about 7 days of standby
time. For best results, return the handset to the cradle after each call to keep it fully charged.
Keep an eye on the battery status icon. When the battery gets too low, the handset shows a low
battery alert. If you hear a strange beep during a call, check the display: if you see the low battery
alert, nish your conversation as quickly as possible and return the handset to the cradle. If the
handset is in standby, none of the keys will operate.
With normal use, the battery should last about one year. Replace the battery when the talk time
becomes short even when the battery is charged. To buy a replacement battery, call the Parts
Department listed on the front cover.
