3.Align the bracket’s keyhole slots with the mounting screws and slide the base downward to secure it.

CONNECTING AND

CHARGING THE

BATTERY PACK

The telephone comes with a rechargeable nickel-cadmium battery pack installed in the handset, but not connected. Before using your phone, you must connect the battery pack, then charge it for about 24 hours.

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

2.Lift the battery pack out of the compart- ment. Plug the battery pack’s connector into the socket in the compartment. The connector fits only one way.

3.Put the battery pack in the compartment.

4.Replace the cover.

To charge the battery pack, simply place the handset on the base, facing either up or down. The CHARGE/IN USE indicator on the base lights.

Recharge the battery pack when the handset beeps and the TALK/BATT indicator flashes.

Important: Be sure the battery pack is prop- erly connected before you try to charge it. The CHARGE/IN USE indicator lights when the handset is on the base, even if the bat- tery pack is not connected.

Notes:

When you first use the phone after charging or recharging the battery pack, the phone might not work and you might hear a five-beep error signal. If this hap- pens, return the handset to the base for about 5 seconds. This resets the secu- rity access-protection code.

Using a pencil eraser, clean the charg- ing contacts on the handset and the base about once a month.

If the TALK/BATT indicator does not light and the phone does not work, recharge the battery pack. (The battery power might be too low to light the indicator.)

If the battery pack becomes weak during a call, you hear a beep and the TALK/ BATT indicator flashes. When this hap- pens, you cannot make another call on the phone until you recharge the battery pack.

About once a month, fully discharge the battery pack by keeping the handset off the base until the TALK/BATT indicator flashes. Otherwise, the battery pack loses its ability to fully recharge.
