WARNING
Under no circumstances should non- rechargeable batteries be used. Only use the supplied battery pack or you will invalidate your guarantee and may damage the telephone.
BATTERY LOW WARNING
If the 
symbol is displayed on the handset or if you hear the low battery tone, you will need to recharge your handset.
Note: If you set the "Battery Low" tone to off, the low battery tone will not sound.
We recommend that you place the handset back on the base/charger between use to ensure that it is always fully charged.
Battery Performance
The handset may become warm during charging, this is normal. On a single charge your handset will give 10 hours talk time and 7 days standby time.
New NiMH batteries do not reach their full capacity until they have been in use for several days.
Over time, as the batteries wear out, the charge capacity will reduce, so reducing the talk/standby time of the handset.
Eventually the batteries will need to be replaced.
