Getting started
BATTERY LOW WARNING
If
icon flashes on the display and you hear a warning
beep every minute during a call, you will need to recharge
the handset before you can use it again.
When charging,
icon will scroll on the display.
BATTERY PERFORMANCE
In ideal conditions, fully charged batteries should give up to
12 hours talk time or up to 250 hours standby time on a
single charge*.
Note that new batteries do not reach their full capacity until
they have been put to normal use for several days.
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.
The charge capacity of rechargeable batteries will reduce
with time as they wear out, giving the handset less talk/
standby time. Eventually they will need to be replaced.
After charging your handset for the first time, subsequent
charging time is about 6–8 hours a day. Batteries and
handset may become warm during charging. This is normal.
* All talk and standby times are approximate and depend on
features selected and usage pattern.
