NetLink e340/h340/i640 Wireless Telephones and Accessories User Guide

Overview The handset will need to have its Battery Pack recharged periodically. The Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) rechargeable handset Battery Pack gives you four hours of talk time or 80 hours of stand-by time (unless PTT is enabled in the NetLink i640 Wireless Telephone only). Stand-by time is when the handset is turned on, but not in an active call.

Indications of low battery The handset will notify you when the charge on the Battery Pack is low by displaying the battery icon. If you are in a call you will hear a soft beep through the earpiece every thirty seconds. User has 15–30 minutes of battery life left. The alerts will increase to every six seconds when there is about one minute of battery life left.

Not in call: The message Low Battery and a loud beep indicate a critically low Battery Pack charge. These occur when the user is not in a call. The handset will not work until the Battery Pack is charged.

Caution: Take care not to short the battery contacts on the Battery Pack with metal objects such as coins, keys or paper clips. Shorting the contacts can cause permanent damage.
