Notes:

•You can place the handset on the base facedown or faceup without re- moving the belt clip. If you want to use the hanging hole on the back of the handset to place the handset on the wall-mounted base faceup, re- move the belt clip (see “Removing the Belt Clip” on Page 18).

•If the CHARGE indicator does not light when you place the handset on the base, be sure the battery pack and AC adapter are correctly and securely connected.

Also, check the charging contacts on the handset and base. If the con- tacts are dirty or tarnished, clean them with a pencil eraser.

•When you first use the phone after charging or recharging the battery pack, the phone might not work and you might hear 3 short beeps when you press TALK. If this happens, re- turn the handset to the base for about 5 seconds. This resets the security access-protection code.

•About once a month, fully discharge the battery pack by keeping the hand- set off the base until the LOW BATT indicator lights. Otherwise, the bat- tery pack loses its ability to fully re- charge.

•If the LOW BATT indicator does not light, but the phone does not work, re- charge the battery pack. (The battery pack charge might be too low to light the indicator.)

•If the battery pack becomes weak during a call, you hear 3 beeps and the LOW BATT indicator flashes. End the call as soon as conveniently pos- sible, and recharge the battery pack before using the phone again.
