Notes on Recharging
If the battery pack becomes weak during a call, LOW BATTERY
flashes. When this happens, you cannot make a call until you
recharge the battery pack.
IMPORTANT: Be sure the battery pack is properly
connected before charging. The CHARGE indicator
lights when the handset is on the charger.
If the display is blank and the phone does not work, recharge
the battery pack. (The battery power might be too low to light
the display.)
About once a month, fully discharge the battery by keeping
the handset off the charger until LOW BATTERY flashes on
the display. Otherwise, the battery pack loses its ability to fully
recharge.
Using a damp cloth, clean the charging contacts on the handset
about once a month.
If you are not going to use your phone for an extended period,
disconnect the battery pack. This increases the battery pack’s
usable life.
The supplied battery pack should last for about a year. If the
battery pack does not hold a charge for more than two hours
after an overnight charge, replace it with a new 3.6-volt, 750
mAh battery pack with a connector that fits the socket in the
battery compartment.
You can order a replacement battery pack through your local
RadioShack store. Install the new battery pack and charge it for
about 15 - 20 hours.
WARNING:
Dispose of the old battery pack promptly and
properly.
Do not burn or bury it. Dispose of used batteries
according to the instructions.
Danger! Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by
an incorrect type.
