Charging the standard batteries
The standard rechargeable batteries for the handset have a stand-by time of max. 100
hours at room temperature and a maximum talk time of 10 hours. To charge the batteries,
place the handset in the base station with the display to the front. The handset will be
charged in rapid charge mode for the first 30 minutes. While this is happening, the boxes in
the capacity display will come on one after the other. Charging will then switch to the normal
charging mode and the battery capacity display will be on constantly.
The current battery capacity is shown in the display.
If the battery capacity is too low, the
symbol will appear in the display and you will
hear warning tones every 20 seconds.
Note:
Exactly like your car battery, the standard rechargeable batteries are unavoidably
subject to a certain ageing. However, you can have an influence on this ageing process by
"training" the standard batteries to a certain extent. In regular use of the phone, if you
cyclically charge and fully discharge the standard batteries by using the telephone until the
symbol appears in the display, a demand is placed on the batteries and they will repay
you by giving maximum performance and a long life. Extended charging and extended
discharging on the other hand will both degrade the capacity and shorten the life of the
standard batteries.
