Most phone systems use tone
dialing. Check with your
local phone company if
you’re not sure whether
your system is tone or pulse.
Low battery indicator
The low battery indicator shows when the
battery pack is very low and needs to be charged.
If the phone is not in use, the talk/batt low
LED flashes every four seconds. If the phone is in
use, the
talk/batt low LED flashes every four
seconds and the handset beeps. Complete your
conversation as quickly as possible and return
the handset to the base for charging.
To avoid Memory Effect
On a monthly basis, use the phone until the talk/batt low LED indicator
flashes on the handset. Then charge the battery for 15-20 hours.
With normal usage, your battery should last about one year.
To maintain a good charge, clean all charging contacts on the handset and base
about once a month. Use a pencil eraser or other contact cleaner. DO NOT use
liquids or solvents; you may damage your phone.
Be sure the
PULSE/TONE switch
is in the TONE position, unless your local
phone system uses pulse dialing.
SETTING THE PULSE/TONE SWITCH
CLEANING THE BATTERY CONTACTS
All rechargeable nickel-cadmium batteries
develop a “memory effect”. The memory effect
gradually reduces your talk and standby time.
