MAINTENANCE

The freedom that your cordless telephone can offer is fully dependent
on the performance of the rechargeable batteries in the handset. To
maximize the battery performance, follow these guidelines:

Charge it for at least 16 continuous hours.

Before initial use of your new battery, charge it for at least 16 hours
continuously . The proper initial charging is very important to maximize
the battery performance.

base for a few hours at a time. Running the batteries right down at
least once a week will help them last as long as possible.

until Battery Low indicator turns on (Disconnect the base from the
phone line, so that your line is not busy all the time.)

2. Then charge it for 16 continuous hours.
