If your Freestyle 1200 is your only

phone, you should fit a back-up battery

in the base unit so that your phone can

always be used in emergencies.

If the power fails, the back-up battery

will give you up to one hour talktime

or seven hours on standby.

Like all cordless phones, your Freestyle

1200 handset will need charging for 24

hours before initial use.
