Battery Life
With average use, your battery talk time will be approximately 8 hours and standby time will be approximately 7 days. For optimum performance, be sure to return the handset to the cradle after each call. If the handset is left off of the base, the actual talk time duration will be reduced respective to the amount of time the handset is off the cradle.
Note: Do not place the power cord where it creates a trip hazard or where it could become chafed and create a fire or electrical hazard.
Low Battery Alert
When the battery pack is very low, the phone is programmed to eliminate functions in order to save power. The battery pack needs to be charged when the display shows LOW BATTERY and the empty battery icon. If the phone is in standby, none of the keys will operate. If you are on a call, complete your conversation as quickly as possible, and return the handset to the charging cradle.
Battery Replacement and Handling
When the talk time becomes short, even after the battery is recharged, please replace the battery. With normal usage, your battery should last about one year. A replacement Uniden adapter or battery may be purchased by visiting www.uniden.com.au (Australian Model) or www.uniden.co.nz (New Zealand Model).
