• If the battery pack is completely dis-
charged or the base loses power
while the handset is away from it,
place the handset on the base to re-
set the security access-protection

power, recharge the battery pack.
• The supplied battery pack should last

pack loses its ability to fully recharge,
order a replacement battery pack
from your local RadioShack store
(see “Replacing the Battery Pack” on
