reached after a few complete cycles of
charge/discharge (use).
L Actual battery performance depends on a
combination of how often the cordless handset is in
use and how often it is not in use (standby).
L Battery operating time may be shortened over time
depending on usage conditions and ambient
temperature.
L Even after the cordless handset is fully charged, the
cordless handset can be left on the base unit without
any ill effect on the batteries.
L The battery strength may not be displayed correctly
after you replace the batteries. In this case, place the
cordless handset on the base unit and charge for at
least 7 hours.
