Power Guard Feature

The i 5871 uses the spare battery charger in the base unit to provide power backup in the event of a power failure or outage. With a fully charged battery in the spare battery charger, you will be able to place and receive calls, for up to 2.5 hours during a power outage.

The spare battery can also be used to replace a drained handset battery, ensuring uninter- rupted use. The spare battery is optional and can be purchased separately.

NOTE: When using your i 5871 during power backup mode, audio quality may be compromised due to reduced power availability.
