Recharge the battery pack when the BATT LOW indicator on the handset flashes.

Notes:

•You can place the handset on the base face down or face up without removing the belt clip. If you want to use the hanging hole on the back of the handset to place the handset on the wall-mounted base face-up, re- move the belt clip (see “Removing the Belt Clip” on Page 21). However, the battery pack will not fully charge in this position.

•If the CHARGE indicator does not light when you place the handset on the base, be sure the battery pack and AC adapter are correctly and securely connected.

Also, check the charging contacts on the handset and base. If the con- tacts are dirty or tarnished, clean them with a pencil eraser.

•When you first use the phone after charging or recharging the battery pack, the phone might not work and you might hear 3 short beeps when you press TALK. If this happens, re- turn the handset to the base for about 5 seconds. This resets the security access-protection code.

•About once a month, fully discharge the battery pack by keeping the hand- set off the base until the BATT LOW indicator lights. Otherwise, the bat- tery pack loses its ability to fully re- charge.

•If the BATT LOW indicator does not light, but the phone does not work, re- charge the battery pack. (The battery pack charge might be too low to light the indicator.)

•If the battery pack becomes weak during a call, you hear 2 beeps and the BATT LOW indicator flashes. End the call as soon as conveniently pos- sible, and recharge the battery pack before using the phone again.

•If the battery pack is completely dis- charged or the base loses power while the handset is away from it, place the handset on the base to re- set the security access-protection code. If it was the handset that lost power, recharge the battery pack.
