Battery low warning
If the handset battery symbol is empty and you hear warning beeps, you will need to recharge your handset before you can use it.
WARNING
Under no circumstances should
Under ideal conditions the battery should give about 10 hours talk time and 120 hours standby when the batteries have been fully charged.
Fully discharging the batteries at least
once a week will help them to last as long as possible. However, the charge capacity of rechargeable batteries will reduce with time as they wear out, so reducing the talk/standby time of the handset. Eventually they will need to be replaced. New batteries can be obtained from the Helpline on 0870 240 4682.
Battery performance
Your handset is supplied with NiMH batteries. These need to be initially charged continuously for 16 hours to reach full charge.
Note that the battery charge icon does not indicate the correct level when the batteries are first installed. The batteries must first be fully charged.
