Standby time: 120hrs approx.

When using Ni-Cd batteries (250 mAh): Talk time: 4hrs approx.

Standby time: 40hrs approx. (Times indicated are for peak performance.)

The batteries reach peak performance after several full charge/discharge cycles. The batteries cannot be overcharged unless they are repeatedly removed and replaced.

If battery life is shortened then please check that battery and charge terminals are clean.

For maximum battery life, it is recommended that the handset not be

recharged until battery icon flashes .
