Changing the Battery

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire or personal injury, use only the Thomson Inc. approved Nickel-Cadmium (Ni-Cd) battery model 5-2729, which is compatible with this unit.

1.Make sure handset is OFF (not in TALK mode) before you replace battery.

2.Remove the battery compartment door.

3.Disconnect the battery plug from the jack inside the battery compartment and remove the battery pack from the handset.

4.Insert the new battery pack and connect the cord to the jack inside the battery compartment.

5.Put the battery compartment door back on.

6.Place handset in the base or handset charge cradle to charge. Allow the handset battery to properly charge (for 16 hours) prior to first use or when you install a new battery pack. If you do not properly charge the phone, battery performance will be compromised.

Battery Safety Precautions

•Do not burn, disassemble, mutilate, or puncture. Like other batteries of this type, toxic materials could be released which can cause injury.

•To reduce the risk of fire or personal injury, use only the Nickel-Cadmium battery listed in the User’s Guide.

•Keep batteries out of the reach of children.

•Remove batteries if storing over 30 days.

NOTE: The RBRC seal on the battery used in your Thomson Inc. product indicates that we are participating in a program to collect and recycle the rechargeable battery (or batteries).
