not lit except for the SPEAKER button.

2. The speakerphone uses more power than the normal handset. If the handset battery becomes very low while you are using the speakerphone,

the call remains in speakerphone mode until you hang up or the battery

becomes depleted. When the battery is very low, you cannot switch a call from normal handset use to speakerphone mode.

3.After installing the battery into the handset, the screen may show LOW BATTERY. If you use speakerphone at this time, the battery may become depleted. Follow the instructions in the Battery installation & charging section on pages 8-9.
