Initial charging and discharging of batteries
Battery charging is indicated in the top right of the display by a flashing battery icon

,

. During handset operation, the battery icon indicates the charge status of the
batteries (page 1).
The correct charge status can only be displayed when the batteries are first fully charged
and
discharged through use.

To do this, leave the handset in the charging cradle without interruption until the bat-
tery icon stops flashing in the display (around 13 hours).
¤
Once the batteries are fully charged, remove the handset from the charging cradle and
do not put it back again until the batteries are fully discharged.
Please note:
u
Always repeat the charging and discharging procedure if you remove the batteries from
the handset and reinsert them.
Please note:
– Only place the handset in the charging cradle that is intended for it.
– If the handset has switched itself off because the batteries are flat and if it is then placed in the
charging cradle, it will switch itself on automatically.
Please note:
After the first battery charge
and
discharge, you may place your handset in the charging cradle after
every call.
