Using the commercial battery holder
Depending on the model, your telephone package will contain a battery holder, enabling
ordinary commercial batteries to be used. Any commercial AA NiCd 1.2 V battery may
be used. However, the charge time required will be at least 4 hours.
To install the chargeable cells in the holder, release the retaining strip, insert two AA cells,
respecting the polarities shown inside the holder, and install the retaining strip.
You can now charge the holder, either installed in the telephone or in the charger
spare battery housing.
The batteries contain polluting materials and should be finally disposed of through
a specialist collection point.
The battery may become hot during the charge. This is not a fault. Protection is
available against battery overheating, to preserve its nominal working life
(only for an enclosed battery pack).

When telephone 4074 GC is used in hands free mode, its battery is no longer
charged. Avoid needlessly long conversations in hands free mode when the telephone
battery is not fully charged. After a call in hands free mode, charging the telephone
will soon restore the full battery charge.
If the telephone must be kept out of the charger, the battery should be removed
and stored separately or placed in the spare battery housing on the rear
of charger 4071 DA.
