Information about power and charging
AC adaptor connection
R
The AC adaptor must remain connected at all times. (It is normal for the adaptor to feel warm
during use.)
R
The AC adaptor should be connected to a vertically oriented or floor-mounted AC outlet. Do
not connect the AC adaptor to a ceiling-mounted AC outlet, as the weight of the adaptor may
cause it to become disconnected.
Power failure
R
The unit will not work during a power failure. We recommend connecting a corded-type
telephone (without AC adaptor) to the same telephone line or to the same telephone line
socket using a telephone double adaptor (for Australia)/a BT double adaptor (for New
Zealand).
Battery use and replacement
R
Use only the supplied battery. For replacement, use only the Panasonic rechargeable battery
noted on page 2.
R
The battery might swell when its life is close to an end. This is dependent on the usage
conditions and is not a problem.
Battery charging
R
It is normal for the handset to feel warm during charging.
R
Clean the charge contacts of the handset, base unit, and charger with a soft and dry cloth
once a month. Before cleaning the unit, disconnect from power outlets and any telephone line
cords. Clean more often if the unit is exposed to grease, dust, or high humidity.
R
Charging time and battery performance may vary depending on mobile phone network
conditions.
Saving battery power
R
The amount of time you can use the handset before the battery needs to be charged varies
depending on how you are using it. Each of the following can help you save battery power.
– Turn off the screen when you are not using the handset (page 17).
– Use the control panel to turn off the handset’s Wi-Fi, GPS, and Bluetooth features. See the
Operating Instructions for more information (download information is on page 1).
– When you are away from home, use the control panel to turn off the handset’s DECT
connection to the base unit. Note that if you do not turn the connection back on when you
return home, you will not be able to make or receive calls using the handset. See the
Operating Instructions for more information (download information is on page 1).
