CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of fire or personal injury, only use Thomson Inc. approved

1. Make sure the telephone is
OFF
(not in TALK mode) before you replace battery.
2. Remove the battery compartment door.
3. Disconnect the cord attached to the battery pack from the jack inside the
battery compartment and remove the battery pack.
4. Insert the new battery pack and connect the plug on the battery pack to the
jack inside the compartment.
NOTE:
It is important to maintain the polarity (black and red wires) to the jack inside the
compartment. To ensure proper battery installation, the connector is keyed and can be
inserted only one way.
5. Close the battery compartment by pushing the door up until it snaps into place.
6. Place the handset in the charging cradle.
Allow the handset battery to properly charge (for 16 hours) prior to first use or when you

will be compromised.
