Battery Charge
A rechargeable Ni-Cd battery powers the handset. Charge the battery for about 6 hours before initial use (p. 13).
The battery is beneath this cover.
Base Unit Location/Noise
Calls are transmitted between the base unit and the handset using wireless radio waves. For maximum distance and noise-free operation, the recommended base unit location is:
Away from electrical appliances such as a TV, personal computer or another cordless phone.
In a HIGH and CENTRAL location with no obstructions such as walls.
Raise the antenna.
Note:
While using the handset:
•If you are near a microwave oven which is being used, noise may be heard from the receiver. Move away from the microwave oven and closer to the base unit.
•If more than one cordless phone is being used and your handset is near another cordless phone’s base unit, noise may be heard. Move away from the other cordless phone’s base unit and closer to your base unit.
