CONNECTING AND
CHARGING THE BATTERY
PACK
The ET-1104 comes with a rechargeable
nickel-cadmium battery pack in the
handset but not connected. Before using
your phone, you must connect the bat-
tery pack and then charge it for about 24
hours.
1. Press down and slide off the cover
as shown.
2. Unfasten the plastic retainer strap
and lift the battery pack out of the
compartment. Plug the battery
pack’s connector into the socket in
the compartment. The connector fits
only one way.
3. Place the battery pack inside the
compartment and fasten the retainer
strap.
4. Replace the cover.
To charge the battery pack, place the
handset on the base either face-up or
face-down. The CHARGE indicator on
the base lights.
When the handset beeps and the LOW
BATT indicator on the handset flashes,
recharge the battery pack.
Notes:
• When you first use the phone after
charging or recharging the battery
pack, you might hear an error tone
(3 short beeps) or the phone might
not work when you press
TALK
. If
this happens, return the handset to
the base for a few seconds. This re-
sets the security access-protection
code.
• If the battery pack gets completely
discharged or the base loses power
while the handset is away from it,
the security access-protection code
needs to be reset. To reset the secu-
rity code, place the handset on the
base. If it was the handset that lost
power, leave the handset on the
base to charge the battery pack.
• If the CHARGE indicator flickers
rapidly when you place the handset
on the base, be sure the battery
pack and AC adapter are correctly
and securely connected.
