REPLACING THE

BATTERY PACK

If you follow the instructions in “Con- necting and Charging the Battery Pack” on Page 9, the battery pack should last about one year. If the bat- tery pack will not hold a charge for more than 2 hours after an overnight charge, replace it with a new 3.6 V, 300 mAh battery pack with a connector that fits the socket in the battery com- partment. You can order a replace- ment battery pack through your local RadioShack store.

Install the new battery pack as de- scribed here, then charge the battery pack (see “Connecting and Charging the Battery Pack” on Page 9).

Note: To avoid losing phone numbers stored in memory, try to install and be- gin charging the new battery pack within about 2 minutes.

1.Press down and slide off the handset’s battery compartment cover as shown.

2.Gently pull out the battery connec- tor to disconnect it, then remove the battery pack.

3.Insert a fresh battery pack and insert its connector into the socket inside the battery compartment.

4. Replace the cover.

Cautions:

You must use a replacement bat- tery pack of the same size and type.

Do not dispose of the battery pack in a fire because it might explode.

Do not open or mutilate the bat- tery pack.

Be careful not to short the battery pack by touching it with conduct- ing materials, such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The battery pack or conductor might overheat and burn.
