THE BATTERY PACK
Charging the Headset Battery Pack
The headset of your VT 1511 cordless telephone is powered by a rechargeable battery pack. It charges automatically whenever the headset is placed on the remote charging stand. You'll know the battery pack needs recharging when:
•The phone emits a warning tone when you rotate the microphone boom into the ON position.
•The phone emits a warning tone when you press PHONE on the remote dial card.
•The headset seems completely dead and does not beep when you press the keys.
•The red LOW BATTERY LED in the wireless headset flashes.
To Charge the Battery Pack
To charge the battery pack, place the headset on the remote charging stand. The two LEDs on the top of the headset will light to show the headset is seated properly and the battery pack is charging.
NOTE:
The VT 1511 uses an advanced inductive charging system. This technology allows the batteries to be recharged without the need for physical charge contacts.
It is recommended that the battery pack be charged for at least 8 hours initially, and
cycles to maximize the charge capacity of your battery pack. The maximum battery life between charges is 7 hours of continuous talk time or 7 days standby time.
Alternatively, if you have purchased a spare battery pack and it has been charging in the base unit, simply exchange the drained headset battery pack with the fully charged battery pack from the base charger. Place the drained headset battery pack in the base charger.
The base spare battery charger does not charge a battery pack as quickly as the remote charging stand. A full charge requires 24 hours when using the base unit spare battery charger.

It is impossible to overcharge the battery
The battery pack can be recharged many times, but if you get a low battery warning even after 16 hours of charging on the remote charging stand (or 24 hours in the base spare battery charger), the battery pack(s) should be replaced.
A Word about Rechargeable Batteries
Your battery pack recharges whenever the headset is returned to the remote charging stand. You may return the headset to the remote charging stand whenever it is not in use.
