Charging the batteries
Before the handset is used for the first time, insert it in the base/charging
station for
at least 16 hours.
When the handset is properly inserted in the base station / charging station, you will
hear an acoustic signal. The handset warms up during the charging process. This is
normal and does not represent a risk. Do not charge the handset with charging units
from other manufacturers. The current
battery charge status is indicated in the dis-
play:
Full Half empty Low Empty

option selections.
Automatic answering
If this function is activated, an incoming call is taken when the handset is removed from
the base station. The automatic answering function is activated and deactivated using
the menu. Refer to Page 98 for the sequence of menu option selections.
Private branch exchanges
The information on Page 107 explains how to install your telephone in a private branch

Low−radiation operation (ECO mode)
The level of radiation is considerably lower than that of standard DECT
cordless telephones when in Standby mode when the handset is in the base
station.
In talk mode, radiation is reduced (depending on the distance between the
handset and base station).
