Putting the equipment into operation - step by step
4th step: inserting the batteries in the handset
The handset is powered by two batteries.
.
Cover of battery compartment
Battery compartment and batteries
Hold the handset with the keypad downwards.
Insert the batteries in the battery compartment.
Make sure that the batteries have the correct +/– polarity. The +/– markings on the batteries must correspond to the +/– markings on the label in the battery compartment.
If the batteries are aligned wrongly, the handset will not function and the equipment is liable to be damaged.
Slide the cover for the battery compartment into the groove on the handset and close the compartment.
5th step: charging the batteries
To charge the batteries, place the handset in the handset rest on the base station. The charging contacts on the lower edge of the handset must touch the contacts in the handset rest on the base station. It is immaterial whether the keypad is facing up or down.
If you have inserted the handset correctly, an acknowl- edgement tone is heard. The LED below the battery sym- bol lights up on the base station.
The batteries must be charged before you can start making calls or settings.
We recommend initially charging the batteries for approximately 16 hours without interruption (over night, for example).
For further information on the use of the batteries see ➔ page 67.
