• Battery life may be shortened depending on usage conditions, such as viewing the Caller ID Caller List or directory items and ambient temperature.

properly.

• If the battery is fully charged, you do not have to place the handset on the base unit until “Recharge battery” is displayed and/or “ ” flashes. This will maximize the battery life.
