Battery life

LBattery life is dependent on use and conditions, but in general if your Panasonic battery is fully charged:

–it should last up to 4.5 hours while in use (in conversation).

–it should last up to about 11 days while not in use (off the charger).

–it should last up to 3.5 hours while using the reception booster feature (page 34).

LIf your Panasonic battery is fully charged and the 2-way radio mode (page 49) is used:

–the battery should last up to 4.5 hours while in use (in conversation).

–it should last up to about 12 hours while not in use (off the charger).

Note:

LOnce the battery is fully charged you do not have to place the handset on the charger after every use. Placing the handset on the charger only when “Recharge battery” is displayed and/or 0688754 flashes will maximize battery life.

Recharge

–the handset beeps intermittently while it is in use.
