Getting started

Battery installation and charging

Install the cordless handset battery as shown below. Once you have installed the battery, the screen indicates the battery status (see table below). If necessary, place the handset in the handset charger to charge the battery. For best performance, keep the handset in the handset charger when not in use. The battery is fully charged after 16 hours of continuous charging. See the table on page 91 for battery operating times.

If the screen shows Place in charger, you need to charge the handset without interruption for at least 30 minutes to give the handset enough charge to use the telephone for a short time. The following table summarizes the battery charge indicators and actions to take.
