Battery performance
To keep your batteries in the best condition, leave the handset off the base for a few hours at a time (after the initial 16 hour charge).
Running the batteries right down at least once a week will help them last as long as possible.
On a full charge, your BT Freestyle 7310 handset gives you up to 10 hours talk time or up to 30 hours standby. Standby time is increased if set to battery save mode, see page 60 for details.
The charge capacity of rechargeable batteries will reduce with time as they wear out, giving the handset less talk/standby time. Eventually they will need to be replaced.
Batteries and handset may become warm during charging. This is normal.

3.Charge the handset batteries for at least 16 hours by placing the handset on the base. The screen shows the battery icon filling up.
