The Basics

Connecting/Charging the Battery Pack

The phone comes with a rechargeable nickel-metal hydride (Ni- MH) battery pack in the handset. Before using your phone, you must connect the battery pack. Then charge it for about 15 - 20 hours.

1.Press down and slide off the battery compartment cover.

2. Lift the battery pack out of the compartment.

3. Plug the battery pack’s connector into the socket in the compartment (the connector fits only one way). Then place the battery pack in the compartment.

4.Replace the cover.

5.To charge the battery pack, place the handset on the base. The CHARGE indicator on the base lights.

Recharge the battery pack when LOW BATTERY flashes on the display.

If you have any trouble replacing the battery pack, take the phone to your local RadioShack store for assistance.

Notes on Recharging

If the battery pack becomes weak during a call, LOW BATTERY flashes. When this happens, you cannot make a call until you recharge the battery pack.

IMPORTANT: Be sure the battery pack is properly connected before charging. The CHARGE indicator lights when the handset is on the base, even if the battery pack is not connected.
