Recharge the battery pack when the
BATT LOW indicator on the handset
flashes.
Notes:
• You can place the handset on the
base face down or face up without
removing the belt clip. If you want to
use the hanging hole on the back of
the handset to place the handset on
the wall-mounted base face-up, re-
move the belt clip (see “Removing
the Belt Clip” on Page 21). However,
the battery pack will not fully cha rge
in this position.
• If the CHARGE indicator does not
light when you place the handset on
the base, be sure the battery pack
and AC adapter are correctly and
securely connected.
Also, check the charging contacts
on the handset and base. If the con-
tacts are dirty or tarnished, clean
them with a pencil eraser.
• When you first use the phone after
charging or recharging the battery
pack, the phone might not work and
you might hear 3 short beeps when
you press TALK . If this happens, re-
turn the handset to the base for abo ut
5 seconds. This resets the security
access-protection code.
• About once a month, fully discharge
the battery pack by keeping the hand-
set off the base until the BATT LOW
indicator lights. Other wise, the bat-
tery pack loses its ability to fully re-
charge.
• If the BATT LOW indicator does not
light, but the phone does not work, re-
charge the battery pack. (The battery
pack charge might be too low to light
the indicator.)
• If the battery pa ck becomes weak
during a call, you hear 2 beeps and
the BATT LOW indicator flashes. End
the call as soon as conveniently pos-
sible, and recharge the battery pack
before using the phone again.
• If the battery pack is completely dis-
charged or the base loses power
while the handset is away from it,
place the handset on the base to re-
set the security access-protection
code. If it was the handset that lost
power, recharge the battery pack.
