Times indicated are for peak performance.

The battery operating time may be shortened depending on usage conditions and ambient temperature.

Clean the charge contacts of the handset and the base unit with a soft, dry cloth once a month. Clean more often if the unit is subject to grease, dust or high humidity. Otherwise the battery may not charge properly.

The batteries cannot be overcharged unless they are repeatedly removed and replaced.

For maximum battery life, it is recommended that the handset not be recharged until the battery icon flashes

.

Replacing the

Batteries

If the icon flashes after a few telephone calls even when the handset batteries have been fully charged, both batteries must be replaced.

Charge new batteries for approximately 7 hours before initial use. (The telephone line cord must not be connected to the telephone socket at this time.)

When replacing the batteries, be sure to set up the battery type even if you install the same type of batteries to initialise battery remaining memory of your handset. (See Setting the Battery Type on page 53.)

Do not use non-rechargeable batteries. If non-rechargeable batteries are fitted and start charging, it may cause the leakage of the battery electrolyte.

Press the notch on the cover firmly and slide it as indicated by the arrow. Replace both batteries (p. 10) and close the cover then charge the handset for about 7 hours.

Please order Panasonic P03P (Ni-MH) or P03H (Ni-Cd) batteries.
