3.5 Fitting standard batteries
To fit the standard rechargeable batteries supplied into the
handset, press on the upper edge of the battery compartment
and slide it downwards. Now insert the batteries taking care
to ensure that the polarity is correct. Close the battery
compartment cover.
Important note: Place the handset in the base station or one of the chargers with
the display to the front for at least 16 hours . The telephone may malfunction if the
batteries are not properly charged. The charging light on the base station will come
on.
3.6 Charging the standard batteries
The standard rechargeable batteries for the handset have a stand-by time of max.
144 hours at room temperature and a maximum talk time of 12 hours. To charge
the batteries, place the handset in the base station with the display to the front.
Note: Switching off the display lighting has a positive effect on the standby time and
the maximum talk time. You can find out how to switch off the display lighting in
Chapter 8.11.
The current battery capacity is shown in the display.
Full Half full Discharged.
Note: Exactly like your car battery, the standard rechargeable batteries are
unavoidably subject to a certain ageing. However, you can have an influence on this
ageing process by "training" the standard batteries to a certain extent. In regular
use of the phone, if you cyclically charge and fully discharge the standard batteries
by using the telephone until the
symbol flashes in the display, a demand is
placed on the batteries and they will repay you by giving maximum performance
and a long life. Extended charging and extended discharging on the other hand will
both degrade the capacity and shorten the life of the standard batteries.
