Insert four alkaline batteries (AA size, 1.5V type) into the battery compartment noting the correct polarity. Insert the two AA batteries into the top part of the compartment by positioning the negative (flat) end of the battery against the spring. Place the other battery next to it with the negative (flat) end touching the positive (raised) part of the first battery. The positive (raised) part of both batteries should be facing right. The bottom two batteries should be inserted in the opposite direction with the positive (raised) part of both batteries facing left. Once inserted, please replace the battery cover. If the batteries are running low, the low battery icon will appear on the LCD display. There is not an announcement only shown on display.

Please note: Ensure that the telephone is not connected to the telephone line socket and/or mains power connection when the batteries are being inserted or replaced.
