9 To charge the handset
When you first use your Freestyle 120 Plus,
the rechargeable batteries in the handset
need charging for 24 hours.
• Make sure you have connected your
Freestyle 120 Plus to the mains power
supply, see steps 4 and 5, page 7.
• Make sure the red
POWER
light is on.
• Place the handset on the base unit, ensuring
the contacts are touching. The
CHARGING
light comes on.
• The charging light will remain constantly lit
whilst the handset is placed on the base unit.
As a rule, placing the handset on the base unit
overnight, will keep the batteries fully charged
for all normal use.
Battery care
Batteries cannot be overcharged. However, leaving
the handset on the base unit all the time can
deteriorate rechargeable batteries. To get the
longest possible life from your batteries, take the
handset off the base for a few hours each day.
Mains power adaptor
The Freestyle 120 Plus must only be used with the
adaptor supplied.
Using any other adaptor will result in non-
compliance with EN60950:1992, and will
invalidate the approval given to this apparatus.
When fully charged and in good condition, the
handset batteries will provide up to 5 hours
continuous talk time or 72 hours standby.
If the batteries are running low, the handset will
beep every few seconds and the
BATT LOW
light
will flash.
If you are making a call and the batteries are
running low, the handset will give a series of beeps.
Place the handset on the base unit to recharge.
