MAINTENANCE
The freedom that your cordless telephone can offer is fully dependent on the
performance of the rechargeable batteries in the handset. To maximize the battery
performance, follow these guidelines:
Charge batteries for at least 8 continuous hours.
Before initial use of your new battery, charge them for at least 8 hours continuously.
The proper initial charging is very important to maximize the battery performance.
Battery Performance
To keep your batteries in the best condition, leave the handset off the base for a
few hours at a time. Running the batteries right down at least once a week will help
them last as long as possible.
