INSTALLING AND CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK

The SP-809 is packaged with a rechargeable nickel-cadmium bat- tery pack. Before using your phone, you must install the battery pack and then charge it for 12–15 hours.

Press down and slide off the compartment cover. Place the battery pack into the com- partment aligning the battery pack with the polarity marks (+ and –) inside. Replace the cover.

To charge the battery pack, simply place the handset on the base. The CHARGING in- dicator on the base lights.

Note: You can place the handset on the base faceup or facedown.

Recharge the battery pack when the LOW BATT indica- tor on the handset flashes.

Notes:

LOW BATT Indicator

²When you first use the phone after charging or recharging the battery pack, the phone might not work and you might hear a two- beep signal when you press TALK. If this happens, return the handset to the base for about 30 seconds. This resets the security access protection code.
