Notes on operation

When installing and using the rechargeable batteries, please follow the rules below:

●Initially charge the batteries thoroughly. We recom- mend charging the batteries for approximately 16 hours without interruption (overnight for example). During the first week of operation, continually replace the handsets in the charging unit for recharging.

●New batteries do not usually reach their full capacity (i.e. maximum time when the telephone is in use and stand-by time) until they have been in normal use for several days. Although the battery LED indicates that the rechargeable batteries of a handset have been charged (LED off), you must assume during this initial phase that the capacity may not reach that of maxi- mum time when the telephone is in use, or that of stand-by time.

●Stand-by time

–Up to 70 hours (NiCd, 650 mAh)

–Up to 110 hours (NiMH, 1100 mAh)

–Up to 130 hours (NiMH, 1300 mAh)

●When the telephone is in use

–Up to 7 hours (NiCd, 650 mAh)

–Up to 11 hours (NiMH, 1100 mAh)

–Up to 13 hours (NiMH, 1300 mAh)

●After they have initially been thoroughly charged, the rechargeable batteries are fully operative. For normal operation, we recommend that the handsets are not placed in the charging unit each time a call is complet- ed. The rechargeable batteries should be discharged from time to time.

Caution: partially discharged batteries only offer lim- ited operating time.

●Make sure that the contacts do not touch metal or oily objects.

●Battery charging times

–Charging time in the handset

NiCd	approx. 4–5 hours
NiMH 1100 mAh	approx. 8–9 hours

–Charging time in the charging unit backup battery compartment

NiCd	approx. 24 hours
NiMH 1100 mAh	approx. 40 hours

●The LED display lights up occasionally to indicate that float charging is taking place.
