to 15 minutes due to the memory effect. Therefore you should discharge the batteries completely, i.e. use
them in the handset until the battery level indicator displays as empty ("
"). Then recharge them as
described in the manual. After the memory effect has occurred, it is possible to achieve almost complete
capacity of the Ni-MH batteries by charging and discharging several times one after another.
Ni-MH batteries can also self-discharge. This self-discharge depends on the ambient temperature. At
temperatures under 0 °C, the self-discharge will be the lowest. High humidity and high temperatures
support the self-discharge. Also long-term storage will lead to self-discharge.
CAUTION
RISK OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERIES ARE REPLACED BY AN INCORRECT TYPE. DISPOSE OF
USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE INSTRUCTIONS.
