Cleaning the battery charging contacts

To maintain a good charge, clean the charging contacts on the cordless handset once a month. Dampen a cloth with plain water. Gently rub the damp cloth over the charging contacts until all visible dirt is removed. Dry the contacts thoroughly before returning the cordless handset to the charger.

Caution:

Do not use paint thinner, alcohol, or other chemical products. Doing so may discolor the surface of the telephone and damage the finish.
