Check battery indicator
If you see WARNING CHECK BATTERY! on the handset display, it indicates one of the following:
1. There is no battery in your handset. You need to install the supplied battery into your handset (see
Install handset battery on page 6.)
2. The battery needs to be replaced.
3. The battery has been installed incorrectly. Please reinstall (see
