5.4 Battery low warning
If you hear a warning beep every 30 seconds during a call, you
will need to recharge the handset before you can use it again.
When charging, icon will scroll on the display.
5.4.1 Battery performance
Under ideal conditions, fully charged batteries should give about
10 hours talk time or 200 hours standby time on a single charge.
Note that new batteries will not reach full capacity until they have
been in normal use for several days.
To keep your batteries in the best condition, leave the handset off
the base for a few hours at a time.
Drain the batteries completely at least once a week before
charging will help to prolong battery life.
The charge capacity of rechargeable batteries will reduce with
time as they wear out, giving the handset less talk/standby time.
Eventually they will need to be replaced.
After charging your handset for the first time, subsequent charging
time will be about 6 hours a day. Batteries and handset may
become warm during charging. This is normal.
