INSTALLING THE BATTERY PACK
The Handset of your Sprint cordless phone cordless telephone is powered by a rechargeable battery pack. It charges automatically when- ever the Handset is in the Base Unit. You should charge the battery pack for 16 hours when you first receive your phone. You’ll know the battery pack needs charging when:
•The low battery message is displayed:
•The Handset seems completely dead, the LCD is completely clear and does not activate when you press the keys.
TO CHARGE THE BATTERY PACK
To charge the battery pack, place the Handset in the Base Unit. The CHARGING indicator will light to show the Handset is seated properly and the battery pack is charging. It is recom- mended that the battery pack be charged for at least 16 hours initially. Afterwards, 8 hours of maintenance charging should be sufficient. You can use your telephone before that with diminished capacity, but it is best to charge the battery pack fully. It will take several recharge cycles to maximize the charge capacity of your battery pack. The maximum battery life be- tween charges is 7 hours of continuous talk time or 14 days of stand by.
Alternatively, if the
spare battery pack has been charging in the Base Unit, simply ex- change the drained Handset battery pack with the fully charged replace- ment battery pack from the Base Unit charger. Place the drained Handset battery pack into the Base Unit charger so that it will charge.
The Base Unit spare battery charger does NOT charge a battery pack as quickly as the main Handset battery charger. A full charge requires 24 hours.
