Battery installation & charging

After installing the battery, you may be able to make and receive short calls. For best performance, place the handset in the telephone base and charge for 16 hours before use.

You can keep the battery charged by returning the handset to the telephone base after use. When the battery is fully depleted, a recharge takes about 12 hours. The average talk time on a fully charged battery is about eight hours and the standby time is approximately five days. Actual battery life depends on usage conditions and age of battery.
