Spare Battery Charger

The VT 1421 has a built-in spare battery charger, which is located in the cradle of the base unit.

Note:

In order to benefit from this feature, you must obtain an optional spare battery from an authorized dealer, or bycontacting VTech Communications at 1-800-595-9511.

Installation

1.Remove the spare battery charger cover.

2.Place a battery pack in the spare battery charger. Make sure the metal contacts on the battery are aligned with the contacts in the spare battery charger.

If at any time you find that the battery does not provide adequate talk time after a 16 hours of charging, you should either temporarily remove and replace the battery in the handset, or,

temporarily unplug the AC adaptor from the wall outlet and then plug it in again. This will reset the battery charger to ensure a frll battery charging cycle is started again.

Power Backup Function

When a spare battery pack is installed in the base unit, the VT 1421 uses this battery pack to provide operational backup in case of a power failure. If you have a fully charged battery pack in the spare battery charger and there is a power outage, you will still be able to place and receive calls on the handset for up to 5 hours. When power backup mode is active the following message will be displayed:

Replacing a Drained Handset Battery

The spare battery pack can also be used to replace a drained handset battery pack to ensure uninterrupted use. Be sure to put the drained battery pack in the spare battery charger for recharging.

Please note that the spare battery compartment charges at a slower rate than a battery pack charging in the handset. It takes 48 hours to fully charge a battery pack in the spare battery charger.
