Radio Shack ET-1124 owner manual Connecting and Charging the Battery Pack

CONNECTING AND CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK

The phone comes with a rechargeable nickel-cadmium battery pack in the handset, but not connected. Before us- ing your phone, you must connect the battery pack and then charge it for about

24hours.

1.Press down and slide the battery compartment cover in the direction of the arrow to remove it.

2.Lift the battery pack out of the com- partment. 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 compart- ment.

4.Replace the cover.

To charge the battery pack, simply place the handset on the base, either face up

or face down. The CHARGE/IN USE in- dicator on the base lights.

Recharge the battery pack when the handset beeps and the TALK/BATT indi- cator flashes.

Important: Be sure the battery pack is properly connected before you try to charge it. The CHARGE/IN USE indica- tor lights when the handset is on the base, even if the battery pack is not con- nected.

Notes:

•When you first use the phone after charging or recharging the battery pack, the phone might not work and you might hear an error tone. If this happens, return the handset to the base for a few seconds.

•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.
