VTech 2428 Cordless Telephone User Manual


 
Charge the Handset Battery Pack
This battery should remain charged up to six days with the ringer turned on and
up to 12 days with the ringer off. A fully charged battery provides an average talk
time of about six hours.
The battery pack needs charging when:
— A new battery is installed in the handset.
— The phone beeps twice every 5 seconds.
— The screen displays
BATTERY LOW and the low battery icon.
Place the handset in the base so the CHARGING light turns on. The battery pack
is typically fully charged in eight hours.
You can keep the battery fully charged by returning the handset to the base after
each use.
If you repeatedly get a low battery indicator, even after charging overnight, the
battery should be replaced. Use VTECH Battery.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire or injury to persons or damage to the
telephone, read and follow these instructions carefully:
Charge the battery provided with or identified for use with this product
only in accordance with the instructions and limitations specified in this
User’s Manual.
Replacing the Handset Battery Pack
1 Remove the battery compartment cover on the handset by pressing on the
indentation and sliding the cover downward.
2 Lift out the old battery pack and disconnect.
3 Align the two holes in the new battery pack’s plug with the socket pins, and snap
the plug into place. Place the battery pack in the compartment with the wires in
the lower left corner, along the bottom of the battery pack.
4 Replace the cover by sliding it up into place.
5 The new battery pack must be charged before using the phone. Place the handset
in the base and allow it to charge for at least 12 hours the first charge. The
telephone might operate before that, but for best performance, let the battery
pack charge fully.
