Recharging the Battery Pack
The nickel metal hydride (Ni-MH) Battery Pack in the Handset can be recharged many times
using the built-in charger in the Base Unit.
When the BATT LOW symbol appears on the LCD Screen, a “beep” sound will be heard every
12 seconds. This indicates that the Battery Pack needs to be recharged.
Charge the Battery Pack at least once every 90 days of nonuse to avoid battery failure.
When the Battery Pack can no longer be charged, replacement of the Battery Pack will be
necessary.
NOTES:
1. During a power interruption, the Base Unit does not operate, and a phone
conversation cannot be made on the Handset.
2. To ensure your phone charges properly, place the Handset on the Base Unit with
Telephone Keypad face up, and make sure that the CHARGE LED indicator on the
Base Unit lights up and a “beep” confirmation tone is heard.
