Setting up the telephone and putting it into service
Charging the batteries
The batteries are in a discharged state when
supplied; they will first need to be charged:
1.
Place the handset in the base
station or the charging bay.
An acknowledgement tone
indicates that the handset is
correctly positioned.
Note:
Use only rechargeable batteries. Do not use
ordinary batteries.
Do not place the handset in the charging
bay if the batteries have not been fitted.
Before initial use, batteries have to be
charged without interruption for at least
12 hours in the case of NiMH batteries, and
for at least 6 hours in the case of NiCd
batteries.
Only remove the batteries from the handset
to replace them with new ones.
Do not charge the batteries out of the
handset.
Battery endurance between
charging
A set of NiMH batteries provides approx.:
• 150 hrs "standby"
• 15 hrs "talk time"
A set of NiCd batteries provides approx.:
• 80 hrs "standby"
• 8 hrs "talk time"
Note:
Make sure you select the correct battery
type. See section "Handset settings".
Charging contacts must not come into
contact with metallic or greasy parts.
After a long period out of operation with
the power switched off (e.g. during
holidays) the batteries will need recharging
before the set can be operated again.
Battery indicator
When the batteries are first inserted, the
battery status is unclear. A correct indication
in the display is obtained only after a
complete charging cycle.
