Charging the Handset Battery Pack
This battery should remain charged up to 15 days with the Ringer turned on and up to 30 days with the Ringer off. A fully charged battery provides an average talk time of about 10 hours.
The battery pack needs charging when:
A new batter y is installed in the handset.
The phone beeps four times when you press P.
The phone does not respond when you press P. Place the handset in the base either in the face-down or
face-up position so the CHARGING/HANDSET IN USE light turns on. The battery pack is typically fully charged in six hours.
You can keep the batter y fully charged by returning the handset to the base after each use.
If you repeatedly get a low battery indicator,even after six hours of charging,the batter y should be replaced.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire or injury to persons or damage to the telephone,read and follow these instructions carefully:
Use only Replacement Batter y 3300 (SKU# 90556).
Do not dispose of the battery in a fire. The cell might explode. Check with local codes for special disposal instructions.
Do not open or mutilate the battery. Released electrolyte is corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.
Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to short the battery with conducting mater ials such as rings,bracelets, and keys. The batter y or conductor may overheat and cause harm.
Charge the batter y provided with or identified for use with this product only in accordance with the instructions and limitations specified in this manual.
Obser ve proper polarity or ientation between the battery and batter y charger.
Nickel-Cadmium Rechargeable Batteries

5 The new battery pack must be charged before
using the phone. Place the handset face up or face

OPERATING RANGE
This cordless telephone operates within the maximum power allowed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Even so,this handset and base can communicate over only a certain distance — which can vary with the locations of the base and handset,the weather, and the construction of your home or office. For best performance,keep the base antenna fully upright.
If you receive a call while you are out of range, the handset might not ring — or if it does ring,the call might not connect when you press P. Move closer to the base,then press P to answer the call.
If you move out of range during a phone conversation, you might hear noise or interference. To
improve reception,move closer to the base. If you move out of range without pressing P,
your phone will be left “off the hook.” To hang up properly,walk back into range,periodically pressing P.

If you have difficulty operating this phone,try the suggestions below. If you still have trouble,call 1 800 222–3111.
If the phone doesn’t work at all, check these items first:
Make sure the AC adapter is plugged into an outlet not controlled by a wall switch.
Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged firmly into the base unit and the modular jack.
Make sure the base antenna is fully upright.
If the handset does not beep when you press P, the battery might need charging.
Make sure the batter y pack is installed cor rectly.
If you have dial pulse (rotary) ser vice on your phone line,make sure the dial mode is set to Dial Pulse (see INSTALLATION).
If the above suggestions don’t solve the problem, try re-initializing the handset and base:
1 Disconnect the power to the base. 2 Remove the handset battery pack. 3 Wait a few minutes. 4 Connect the power to the base. 5 Insert the handset battery pack. 6 Put the handset in the base to re-initialize.
If you hear a two-beep signal when you try to use the handset:
You might be out of range. Move closer to the base and try again.
If moving closer to the base doesn’t help, try following the directions above for re-initializing the handset and base.
If you hear “popping” or “clicking” when using the phone:
Make sure the base antenna is fully upright.
You may be out of range. Move closer to the base.
Household appliances plugged into the same circuit as the base can sometimes cause interference. Try moving the appliance or the base to another outlet.
The layout of your home or office might be limiting the operating range. Try moving the base to another location,preferably on an upper floor.
If the buttons don’t work,try placing the handset in the base for at least 15 seconds.
If the phone does not ring when you receive a call:
Make sure the handset Ringer is on. (Press to turn ringer on.)
Make sure the telephone line cord is connected firmly to the base and the telephone jack.
Make sure the AC adapter is plugged firmly into an outlet not controlled by a wall switch.
You might be too far from the base;move closer.
You might have too many extension phones on your telephone line to allow all of them to ring. Try unplugging some of them.
If you hear other calls while using your phone:
Disconnect the base from the modular jack and plug in a corded telephone. If you still hear other calls,the problem is probably in your wiring or local service. Call your local telephone service company.
If you lose a call after changing channels:
You were probably almost out of range. Move closer to the base before changing channels. Before placing another call,set the handset in the base for at least 15 seconds.
If you are unable to operate special telephone services or other equipment requiring touch tone signals:
If you have dial pulse (rotary) service,follow the directions under “T emporary Tone”in the TELEPHONE OPERA TION section of this manual.
