Setting up the telephone

Putting the handset into operation

Your handset will be ready for operation (for making or accepting calls) only once the battery has been charged for the first time.

Inserting the rechargeable batteries

The bottom of the handset contains a battery compartment for housing two type AAA batteries (microcells).

Removing the battery compartment cover:

Slide the battery compartment cover downwards

(approx. 3 mm) and lift.

Inserting the two rechargeable batteries (note the polarity!):

Insert the batteries in the battery compartment. Make sure the polarity is correct. Make sure to insert the batteries so that the flat end of the battery (the negative side) connects to the spring contact. The handset will not function if the batteries are incorrectly inser- ted. This may result in damage. Replace the compartment cover by placing it approxima- tely 3 mm offset and slide it upwards until it clicks into place.
