5.12 Power fail back-up
*
Power Fail back-up system lets you make calls during a mains power interruption
with your cordless phone. During a mains power interruption, you can supply
the power stored in your handset battery to the base unit, so you can make calls
even when the power is out.
Notes:
Power Fail Back-Up mode will not work if the handset battery power is not
sufficient (usually not lower than level 2).
Do not pick up the power supplying handset from base when Power Fail
Back-Up mode is activated.
Do not touch the charging contacts of the power supplying handset during
Power Fail Back-Up mode.
In Power Fail Back-Up mode none of the base functions, including the
answering machine will operate.
It may take up to 90 seconds to transition through the Power Fail Back-Up
activation process as the base and handset(s) synchronise with each other.
