Charging Spare Battery Packs
The charging unit of your cordless telephone is equipped to charge the spare battery
pack with or without the handset in the front slot.
1. Slide the spare battery pack into the second slot in the charging unit until the
retaining clip snaps over the top of the pack.
2. Make sure the
battery
indicator lights. If the indicator doesn’t light, check to see
that the AC adapter is plugged in, and that the battery pack is making good contact
with the unit’s charging contacts.
Note
Charge the battery pack without interruption for 12~15 hours.
3. When charging is complete, press out on the latch and remove the battery pack for
use. If you don’t need the battery pack immediately, leave it in the charging
compartment. It will not overcharge.
Range and Performance
Ranges of 300 to 400 feet are possible depending on the building structure in which it
is used. The range is affected by the operating environment and base station
placement, and can be impacted by factors including metal walls, walls with metal
studs, office partitions, cabinets, other RF sources in the area, and nearby equipment.
For optimum range and performance from your handset, try the following:
•
Place the base units at least three to six feet away from the DKT; three feet from
metal structures; and six feet from computers, fax machines or other electronic
equipment.
•
Place the base unit as high as possible in the room
•
Use an AC outlet not associated with computer or electromagnetic equipment.
•
Wherever possible, put the base unit in the middle of the coverage area.
Radio Interference
Radio interference occasionally interrupts conversations, which does not mean that
your unit is defective. Move to a different location while you are talking. If the
interference continues, move the base unit. If there is still interference, contact your
System Administrator.
