Inserting the two rechargeable batteries (note the polarity!):
Insert the batteries in the battery compartment. Make sure the polarity is correct. Insert
the batteries so that the flat end (negative polarity) of the battery is pressing against the
spring. The handset will not function if the batteries are incorrectly inserted. This may
result in damage. Replace the compartment cover by placing it approximately 3 mm off-
set and slide it upwards until it clicks into place.
Charging the batteries
The batteries are not yet charged when you first unpack the telephone. Insert the handset
in the base station for charging. The flashing battery symbol on the handset shows the
charging status. The batteries will take around 14 hours to fully charge (initial charge).
Do not insert the handset in the base station without batteries.
Setting up the telephone

partment cover:

cover downwards (approx.
3 mm) and lift it up.
