Low battery warning
When the batteries are very low,
beep will sound every minute to prompt you to recharge the batteries.
Battery performance
When fully charged, the batteries offer approximately 8 hours of talk time and 120
hours of standby time under ideal conditions. Please note that a new battery
reaches its full capacity after several days of normal use.
The battery capacity decreases over time, reducing the talk time and standby time.
Replace the batteries if necessary.
The batteries and the handset will become hot during charging. This is normal.
Tip
When you are not using your handset, place it on the charger so that you can
always have fully charged batteries.

DO NOT USE STANDARD OR ALKALINE BATTERIES. THEY MAY EXPLODE AND CAUSE
INJURY. ONLY USE RECHARGEABLE NI-MH BATTERIES AS INDICATED IN THIS USER

Never use non-rechargeable batteries. Use only batteries that are identical to the
ones supplied with your telephone.
