Repeated use or recharge of Ni-Cd batteries without periodic full discharge results in reduced useable
charge time. When you notice the usable charge duration decreasing, fully discharge the Ni-Cd battery
and recharge as described:
DISCHARGING
1. Unplug the telephone line cord from the
Excursion
®
36288.
2. Make sure that the adapter is connected.
3. Lift the handset out of the base cradle.
4. Press the TALK button of the handset and start discharging.
Once the Symbol LOW Battery appears on LCD display, it means that the battery level is low. Let it fully
discharge for 12 hours. Once the Ni-Cd battery is fully discharged, you may now charge the battery to its
full capacity.
CHARGING
1. Make sure the adapter and telephone line cord are connected to the
Excursion
®
36288.
2. Place the handset on the base cradle. The CHARGE LED indicator of the base unit will light
steadily.
3. Leave the handset charging on the base for 14 hours continuously to get a maximum charge.
4. The
Excursion
®
36288 is now ready for regular use. Discharge and charge the Ni-Cd battery again
once you notice a decrease in the useable charge time.
MAINTENANCE
1. Your phone should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heaters, stoves or any
other appliance that produces heat.
2. Use a slightly damp cloth to clean the plastic cabinet. A mild soap will help to remove grease or oil.
Never use polish, solvents, abrasives or strong detergents since these can damage the finish.
