Connecting the Charger Unit
Plug the mains adaptor into the wall socket .
The charger unit is now ready to use.
Preparing the Handset(s)
Inserting and Charging the Batteries
Open the battery compartment, by pushing
upwards on the cover.
Insert the 2 x AAA batteries supplied, observing
the correct polarity.
If the batteries are inserted incorrectly
the handset will not operate and there is
also a possibility that the handset
may become damaged.
Push the battery cover back on until you hear it click into place.
Place the handset in the base station/charger unit to charge the batteries.
A confirmation beep and the charging indicator confirm that the handset is charging.
Note: Before first use, the batteries should be allowed to charge for at least 16 hours,
without interruption. If possible, only take the handset out of the base station when
charging is complete. This will help to guarantee optimum operation.
Note: To ensure no interruptions during the initial charging period, you may prefer to
connect the telephone line cord after charging so as not to be disturbed by any
incoming calls.
