Battery duration

A fully charged battery pack lasts for about:

•Approx. 6 hours when you use the handset continuously

•Approx. 7 days when the handset is in standby mode.

It may require ser eral times of charging to recover to its full capacity.

To obtain the best performance from the battery

Do not place the handset on the base unit after each call. The battery works best if the handset is returned to the base unit after two or three calls. However, do not leave the handset oft the base unit for a long period of time as this will completely discharge the battery pack.

When to purchase a new battery pack

If the battery lasts only a few minutes even after 12 hours of charging, the usable life of the battery has expired and needs replacement. Contact your local Sony authorized dealer or service center, and ask for a Sony BP-T23 rechargeable battery pack.

•The total number of phone numbers which can be stored into the Phone Directory varies according to the number of digits of each phone number, if all the phone numbers consist of up to 16 digits, you can store up to 50 phone numbers. However, as the Phone Directory uses two-phone number memory to store one phone number of 17 digits or more, the total number of phone numbers which can be stored in the Phone Directory decreases two by two every time you store a phone number of 17 digits or more.
