Battery installation and charging
Install the battery as shown on page 7. Once you have installed
the battery, the screen indicates the battery status (see table
below). If necessary, place the cordless handset in the telephone
base to charge the battery. For best performance, keep the
cordless handset in charger when not in use. The battery is fully
charged after 11 hours of continuous charging. See the table in
the
Technical specifications
section on page 30 for battery
operating times.
If the screen shows Place in charger and
flashes, you need to
charge the cordless handset without interruption for at least
30 minutes to give the handset enough charge to use the
telephone for a short time. The following table summarized the
battery charge indicators and actions to take.
