Note
Please note that alkaline batteries will require
replacing and can NOT be used with the Freeway
charger.
The typical battery capacity of an AAA alkaline
battery is approximately twice that of an AAA size
Ni-MH battery. The battery life for the Freeway is
approximately 21 hours using alkaline batteries
and approximately half this using rechargeable
Ni-MH batteries.
The Freeway handset can be charged when it is
switched on or off, however, it will take longer to
fully charge the battery pack if the handset is left
switched on.
To fully charge the battery pack, from a fully
discharged state takes around 14 to 16 hours.
The lights on the Freeway charger will stay lit even
when the battery pack is fully charged.
1 Installing the batteries
Your Freeway handset is supplied with 4 x AAA
(alkaline) batteries or a Freeway rechargeable
Ni-MH battery pack depending on which version
you have purchased.
