The parent unit can be used on or off the charger pod. When on the charger pod, the batteries will be recharged at the same time. However, the time it takes to charge the batteries to full will be longer when the unit is charged and used at the same time.
The Parent Unit can't be operated on the charging cradle without batteries.
Rechargeable batteries in the Parent unit give up to 10 hours continuous usage. Please note however, that new batteries do not reach full capacity until they have been in normal use for several days.
Running rechargeable batteries right down at least once a week will help them last as long as possible. The charge capacity of rechargeable batteries will reduce with time as they age, so reducing the performance time of the parent unit. Eventually they will need to be replaced.
