• If you are not going to use your phone for an extended period
of time, disconnect its battery pack. This helps increase the
battery pack’s life.
• When the handset is on the base, the CHARGE/IN USE/
MESSAGE indicator lights even when the battery pack is not
connected. If your phone does not work, be sure the battery
pack is properly connected.
The supplied battery pack should last about a year. If the battery
pack does not hold a charge for more than 2 hours after an over-
night charge, replace it with a new 3.6-volt, 600 mAh battery pack
with a connector that fits the socket in the battery compartment.
You can order a replacement battery pack through your local Ra-
dioShack store.
Note: To avoid losing numbers stored in memory, you must install
and begin charging the new battery pack within 2 minutes of re-
moving the old one.
Warning: Dispose of the old battery back promptly and properly.
Do not burn or bury it.
Cautions:
• Be careful not to short the battery pack by touching it with
conducting materials, such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The
battery pack or conductor might overheat and burn.
• Do not open or mutilate the battery pack.
If you have trouble replacing the battery pack, take the phone to
your local RadioShack store for assistance.
