Emergency Batteries

If your SX5T has a Power Supply, you may install emergency batteries to power the device in the event of a power outage. Do not install emergency batteries if your SX5T has a BBU. The SX5T will not automatically switch to battery if AC power fails; you must flip the AC/Battery switch to battery operation - see Figure 5.

To install emergency batteries:

1.Remove the battery access door screw located on the bottom of the unit - see Figure 4.

2.Press the battery access door tabs and remove the battery access door.

3.Install 4 “AA” alkaline batteries (not supplied) - see Figure 4.

4.Reinstall the battery access door using the screw.

WARNING!

Only “AA” alkaline batteries should be used with the Phonecell® SX5T. Use of any other batteries may result in fire and/or other damage to the unit.

Figure 4 – SX5T battery installation.

Note:

If you use rechargeable “AA” batteries with the SX5T, they must be recharged externally (the unit will not recharge them automatically).

Battery Operation

SX5T models with Power Supplies will not automatically switch from AC to battery upon loss of AC power. The AC/Battery switch must be changed manually - see Figure 5. Battery power will provide up to 3.5 hours of standby or up to one hour of talk time, depending on the SX5T model.
