Note:
L
Battery power is consumed whenever
the handset is off the base unit or
charger, even when the handset is not in
use. The longer you leave the handset
off the base unit or charger, the shorter
you can actually talk on the handset.
Actual battery performance depends on
a combination of how often the handset
is in use and how often it is not in use.
L
Once the battery is fully charged, you do
not have to charge it again until
“
Recharge battery
” is displayed or
3
flashes. This will maximize the
battery life.
Battery replacement
If battery performance diminishes, make
sure you have cleaned the charge
contacts and fully charged the battery. The
battery needs to be replaced if any of the
following are displayed after a few phone
calls even when you have fully charged the
battery.
– “
