Power Reserve Feature

The power reserve batteries in the base allow you to use your cordless handset temporarily in the event of a power failure.

To ensure that this feature will be available during power failure, replace the power reserve batteries with fresh heavy-duty or alkaline batteries when the PWR RESERVE BATT LOW light on the base goes on.

The Power Reserve feature will not work if you install or replace the power reserve batteries during a power outage. The phone requires AC power to recognize that new batteries have been installed.

NOTE: The Power Reserve feature allows you to make and answer calls in the event of a power failure (as long as the power reserve batteries have power). Other features will not function during power failures.
