REPLACING THE
BATTERY PACK
If you follow the instructions in “Connect- ing and Charging the Battery Pack” on Page 12, the battery pack should last about a year. If the battery pack will not hold a charge for more than 2 hours af- ter an overnight charge, replace it with a new 3.6 V, 600 mAh battery pack with a connector that fits the socket in the bat- tery compartment. You can order a re- placement battery pack through your local RadioShack store.
Follow these steps to install the new bat- tery pack, then charge the battery pack for about 24 hours before you use it.
Note: To avoid losing phone numbers stored in memory on the handset, try to install and begin charging the new bat- tery pack within 1 minute after removing the old one.
1.Slide open the battery compartment cover and lift the battery pack out of the compartment.
2.Gently pull on the battery connector to disconnect it, then remove the battery pack.
3.Insert the fresh battery pack inside the compartment, plug its connector into the socket inside the battery compartment.
4.Replace the cover.
