PREPARATION
CONNECTING THE
BATTERY
Before you use your phone for the first time, you must connect the battery and charge it for 15 hours.
Slide off the battery compartment cov- er on the back of the handset and con- nect the battery’s plug to the pins inside the compartment.
Replace the cover, then follow the in- structions under “Charging the Bat- tery.”
CHARGING THE
BATTERY
After you connect the battery, set POWER to OFF. Then place the hand- set on the base so the CHARGE/TALK indicator lights and let the battery charge for about 15 hours.
(Illus with callout:
CHARGE/ TALK Indicator)
The phone recharges whenever the handset is on the base. You can re- charge the battery at any time, but you must be sure to recharge the battery when LOW BATT lights on the hand- set.
Notes:
•The first time you use your phone after charging the battery, the handset might not work or might sound an error tone when you press TALK. This might also occur when you recharge a battery that has been completely discharged.
If this happens, be sure the hand- set is turned on. Then return the handset to the base for 5 sec- onds. This resets the security access protection code.
