Running the batteries right down
at least once a week will help them
last as long as possible.
On a full charge, your BT Freestyle
7310 handset gives you up to 10
hours talk time or up to 30 hours
standby. Standby time is increased
if set to battery save mode,

.
The charge capacity of
rechargeable batteries will reduce

Eventually they will need to be
replaced.
Batteries and handset may
