• About once a month, fully dis-
charge the battery by keeping the
handset off the base until the
BATT LOW indicator flashes. Oth-
erwise, the battery loses its ability
to fully recharge.
• If the BATT LOW indicator does
not light, but the phone does not
work, recharge the battery. (The
battery charge might be too low to
light the indicator.)
• If the battery pack gets weak dur-
ing a call, a beep sounds about
every 30 seconds, and the BATT
LOW indicator flashes about every
3 seconds. If this happens, you
cannot make another call using
the handset until you recharge the
battery.
• If the battery loses its charge com-
pletely, the TAD-1016 loses the
security access-protection code.
Place the handset on the base
and charge the battery; this also
resets the code.
• The supplied battery should last
about a year. When the battery
loses its ability to fully recharge,
order a replacement battery (see
“Replacing the Battery Pack” on
Page 34).
