leave it on the base to charge the
battery pack.
• If you will not use your phone for a
long time, disconnect its battery
pack. This helps increase the
battery pack’s life.
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 overnight charge,
replace it with a new 3.6V, 600mAh Ni-
Cd rechargeable 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, place the remote keypad
on the base, and charge the battery for
15 hours before using it.
Note: To avoid losing numbers stored
in memory, you must install and begin
charging the new battery pack within 2
minutes of removing the old one.
Warning: Dispose of the old battery
pack promptly and properly. Do not
burn or bury them.
Cautions:
• You must use a replacement
battery pack of the same size and
type.
• Do not dispose of the battery pack
in fire because it might explode.
• Do not open or mutilate the
battery pack.
• Be careful not to short the battery
pack by touching the conducting
materials, such as rings,
bracelets, and keys. The battery
pack or conductor might overheat
and burn.
