Battery Charge
The handset is powered by a rechargeable NickelMetal Hydride (Ni-MH) battery. Charge the battery
for 6hours before initial use (p. 10).
Base Unit Location/Noise
Calls are transmitted between the base unit and 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.
Raise the antenna.
Note:
• If you use the handset near a microwave oven which is being used, noise may be
heard from the receiver or the speaker. Move away from the microwave oven and
closer to the base unit.
• If you use the handset 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.
In a HIGH and CENTRAL location

Recharge
Recharge the battery when:
—“Recharge battery” is displayed on the handset,
—“7” flashes, or
—the handset beeps intermittently while it is in use.
• The display will continually indicate “Recharge battery” and/or “7” will
flash when the handset battery is charged for less than 15 minutes and the
handset is lifted off the base unit or charger.
• If the battery has been discharged, the handset will display “Charge for 6h”
and “8” when you place the handset on the base unit or charger. The handset
will not work unless the battery is charged. Continue charging.
Battery replacement:
If you cleaned the charge contacts and fully charged the battery, but after a few
telephone calls, “Recharge battery” is displayed and/or “7” continues to
flash, or “Charge for 6h” and “8” are displayed, the battery may need to
be replaced. Please order a new Panasonic HHR-P104 battery at the telephone
number shown on page 2. To replace the battery, see page 10.
A nickel metal hydride battery that is recyclable powers the
product you have purchased. Please call 1-800-8-BATTERY for
information on how to recycle this battery.
Battery information
Recharge battery
Preparation
After your Panasonic battery
is fully charged, you can
expect the following
performance:
• A fully charged battery will give you up to 5 hours of continuous talk time, or keep
your handset in Standby mode to receive incoming calls for up to 11 days (if no
phone calls are made). Battery power is consumed whenever the handset is off of
the base unit or charger, even when the handset is not in use. The longer you
leave the handset off of the base unit or charger, the time you can actually talk on
the handset will be shortened. Actual battery performance depends on a
combination of how often the handset is in TALK mode and how often it is in
Standby mode.
• If the battery is fully charged, you do not have to place the handset on the base
unit or charger until “Recharge battery” is displayed and/or “7” flashes.
This will maximize the battery life.
• If you want to keep the battery fully charged at all times, place the handset on the
base unit or charger when the handset is not used. The battery cannot be
overcharged.
• Clean the charge contacts of the handset, the base unit and the charger with
a soft, dry cloth once a month. Clean more often if the unit is subject to
grease, dust or high humidity. Otherwise the battery may not charge properly.

Ringer Tone
You can set the handset ringer to use one of 7 ringer patterns for outside calls.
“Tone 1” to “Tone 3” are bell ringer patterns. “Melody 1” to “Melody 4” are melody
patterns. The factory preset is “Tone 1”.
• You cannot change the ringer tone for intercom calls.
• If you subscribe to a Distinctive Ring Service (such as IDENTA-RING) from your
telephone company with 2 or 3 consecutive rings, select a bell ringer pattern
(Tone 1 to 3). If you select a melody pattern, you will not be able to distinguish
lines by their ringers.
• If you select one of the melody ringer patterns, the ringer will continue to sound for
several seconds if:
— the caller hangs up before you answer the call, or
— another person answers the call using another phone connected on the same line.
