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
When the battery pack is very low and needs
to be charged, the phone is programmed to
eliminate some functions to save power. If the
phone is not in use, Low Battery flashes.
If the phone is in use, Low Battery flashes and the handset beeps.
To avoid Memory Effect
On a monthly basis, use the phone until the Low Battery
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 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.
