Charge the Battery

Place the handset in the charger. A beep indicates connection with the charger. Charging status
is displayed by the battery icon in the handset display. After approximately two hours for Desktop
Chargers or four hours for Charging Racks, the handset is fully charged, indicated by a filled

it remains switched off when fully charged. To start the handset press and hold the
