Handset battery charging
Once you have installed the handset battery, the screen indicates the
battery status (see the table below). If necessary, place the handset in the
telephone base or charger to charge the battery. For best performance, keep
the handset in the telephone base or charger when not in use. The handset
battery is fully charged after 16 hours of continuous charging. See the table on
page 61 for battery operating times.
If the screen is blank or displays Place in charger, you need to charge
the handset without interruption for at least 30 minutes to give the handset
enough charge to use the telephone for a short time. When the battery is low,
the handset displays Low battery along with a ashing icon. If you are on a
call in low battery mode, the handset plays short beeps to alert you.
The following table summarizes the battery charge indicators and actions
to take.
