Headset socket
You can connect the following types of
headset (with jack connector): HAMA
Plantronics M40, MX100 and MX150.
If you do not connect a headset, please
insert the cover supplied for the headset
socket to guarantee the unit is still splash
proof.
Initial charging and discharging of the
battery pack
If the handset is activated, the flashing
battery icon
e
in the top right of the dis-
play indicates that the battery pack is
being charged.
During handset operation, the battery
icon indicates the charge status of the bat-
tery pack (page 1). The correct charge sta-
tus can only be displayed if the battery
pack is first fully charged
and
discharged.
¤
To do this, leave the handset in the
base station
continuously
for
ten
hours. Your handset need not be
switched on for it to charge.
¤
Afterwards, remove the handset from
the base station and do not put it back
again until the battery pack is fully dis-
charged.
Please remember:
u
Always repeat the charging and dis-
charging procedure if you remove the
battery pack from the handset and
insert it again.
u
The battery pack may warm up as it is
charging. This is not dangerous.
u
After a time the charge capacity of the
battery pack will decrease for technical
reasons.
