•About once a month, fully dis- charge the battery by keeping the handset off the cradle until flashes, then return the handset to the cradle and fully recharge the battery. If you do not fully discharge and recharge the battery periodically, it loses its
ability to fully recharge.
•The first time you use your phone after installing a new battery, the handset might not work and 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 cradle for 5 sec- onds. This resets the security access code.
