Connecting and Charging the
Battery Pack
The phone comes with a rechargeable
nickel metal hydride (Ni-MH) battery
pack. Before using your phone, you
must install the battery pack, and then
charge it for about 12–15 hours.
1. Press down and slide off the
battery compartment cover.
2. Plug the battery pack’s connector
into the socket in the compartment
(the connector fits only one way),
then place the battery pack in the
compartment.
3. Replace the cover.
To charge the battery pack, place the
handset on the charger. The CHARGE
indicator on the charger lights and

Recharge the battery pack when

appears.
Important: Be sure the battery pack is
properly connected before you try to
charge it. The CHARGE indicator
lights when the handset is on the
charger, even if the battery pack is not
connected.
Notes:
• Using a pencil eraser, clean the
charging contacts on the handset
and charger about once a month.
• If the battery pack becomes weak
during a call, the handset beeps
and
87JJ

appears. If a call is in
progress when the battery pack of
one handset becomes too weak,
the call is placed on hold and you
can retrieve the call from another
handset.
• About once a month, fully
discharge the battery by keeping
the handset off the base or
charger until

stays lit.
Otherwise, the battery pack loses
its ability to fully recharge.
• 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.)
• If you are not going to use your
phone for an extended period,
disconnect the battery pack. This
