For Best Performance
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.
In a HIGH and CENTRAL location
with no obstructions such as walls.
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.

• USE ONLY WITH Panasonic AC ADAPTOR PQLV1 (Order No. PQLV1Z).
• The AC adaptor must remain connected at all times. (It is normal for the adaptor to
feel warm during use.)
• The AC adaptor should be connected to a vertically oriented or floor–mounted AC
outlet. Do not connect the AC adaptor to a ceiling–mounted AC outlet, as the
weight of the adaptor may cause it to become disconnected.
• If your unit is connected to a PBX which does not support Caller ID, you cannot
access Caller ID services.
• The unit will not work during a power failure. We recommend connecting a
standard telephone to the same telephone line or to the same telephone jack
using the Panasonic KX-J66 T-adaptor.
* If the unit is connected to a telephone line with DSL service, you may hear noise
from the receiver or speaker during conversations or the unit may not display
caller’s name and/or phone number properly. We recommend connecting a noise
filter (contact your DSL service provider) to the telephone line between the base
unit and the telephone line jack.

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.
• If the battery has been discharged, the handset will display “Charge for 6h”
and “8” when you place the handset on the base unit. 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.

Te l ec o i l ( p . 23 )
• 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, even when the handset is not in use. The longer you leave the
handset off of the base unit, 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.
• Clean the charge contacts of the handset and the base unit 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.
• 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 “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 when the handset is not used. The battery cannot be overcharged.
