Make sure you charge up the battery before you use your handset for the first time as it ships out
with only a low charge level. To do so, place the handset (switched on or off) in the charger cradle. If
the handset is switched off (e.g. after the battery has been inserted for the first time), it will remain
switched off in the charger cradle, but will still be charging. The LED flashes alternately green and
red to indicate this status. If you switch the handset on (see page 24) the handset’s current charge
level is indicated on the display (see page 12).
It takes three to five charge and discharge cycles for the battery to achieve maximum performance.
So make sure you place the handset in the charger cradle regularly to achieve the optimum battery
charge.

Note
Poor radio signals (far away from the system base station) reduce the handset standby and talk
times. High loudspeaker or ringer volume, frequent key activation and display illumination as well as
active vibration alarm and
Bluetooth
operation are features that can specifically shorten standby
and talk times.
