Connecting the charger
Set up the the charger for the second handset within reach of a electricity supply
socket.
Insert the connector on the lead from the transformer plug in the socket on the rear
side of the charger and insert the transformer plug in a 230V supply socket installed
in accordance with regulations. For safety reasons, use only the transformer plug
supplied.
3.5 Fitting
the
batteries
To fit the batteries supplied into the handset, press on the top edge of the
battery compartment cover and slide it downwards. Now insert the two
batteries supplied and close the battery cover.
Important information:
Place the handset with the display to the front on the base
and charging station for at least 16 hours. If the batteries are not correctly charged,
the telephone may not work properly. While the handset is being charged, the
battery capacity symbol
will flash in the display.
3.6
Charging the batteries
The rechargeable batteries in your handset have a standby time of max. 8 days at
room temperature and a maximum talk time of up to 12 hours. To charge the
batteries, place the handset in the base station. The current battery capacity will be
shown in the display.

Batteries are discharged
Note:
The batteries must be charged for at least 16 hours before being used for the
first time. Exactly like your car battery, the rechargeable batteries are unavoidably
subject to a certain ageing. However, you can have an influence on this ageing
process by “training” the batteries to a certain extent. In regular use of the phone, if
you cyclically charge and fully discharge the batteries by using the telephone until
the
symbol appears 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 batteries.
