Initial charging and discharging of
batteries
If the handset is activated, the flashing
battery icon
e
in the top right of the dis-
play indicates that the batteries are being
charged.
During handset operation, the battery
icon indicates the charge status of the bat-
teries (page 1). The correct charge level
can only be displayed if the batteries are
first fully charged
and
discharged.
¤
To do this, leave the handset in the
base station or charging cradle
contin-
uously
for
seven
hours. Your handset
need not be turned on for it to charge.
¤
Afterwards, remove the handset from
the base station and do not put it back
again until the batteries are fully dis-
charged.
Please note:
u
Always repeat the charging and dis-
charging procedure if you remove the
batteries from the handset and reinsert
them.
u
The batteries may warm up during
charging. This is not dangerous.
u
After a while the charge capacity of the
batteries will decrease for technical rea-
sons.

automatically.

or charging cradle that is intended for it.
Please note:
After the first battery charge
and
discharge
you may replace your handset in its base sta-
tion after every call.
