For Best Performance

Battery Charge

A rechargeable Ni-Cd battery powers the handset. Charge the battery for about 6 hours before initial use (p. 11).

Base Unit Location/Noise

The battery is beneath this cover.

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 antennas.

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.

Battery information

After your Panasonic battery is fully charged (p. 11):

	Operation		Approx. battery life
While in use		near the base unit*	Up to 4.5 hours
(TALK)		away from the base unit	Up to 3.5	hours
While not in use (Standby)			Up to 11	days

*Within about 10 feet (3 m)

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

•Clean the handset and the base unit charge contacts 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 “	” flashes. This will
maximize the battery life.
• The battery cannot be overcharged.
