battery pack will be recharged continuously.
If the handset battery becomes weak
You will hear a beep every three seconds during the conversation.
The call will be di.sconnected in one minute.
When to purchase a new battery pack
If the battery la.sts only a few minutes even after 18 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 Sony BP-T18 rechargeable battery pack.

If the handset battery is completely discharged, the digital security code will be erased
and all programmed numbers will be lost from memory.

Additional Information
Resetting the digital security
code
Since a random security code is automatically assigned between the
base unit and the handset when you charge the battery pack for the
first time, you normally do not need to reset the security code.
However, in the unlikely event that you suspect that another cordless
phone uses the same .security code, you can manually change the
code as follows:
1
Replace the handset on the ba.se unit.
Press (PAGE).
2
3
Lift the handset for a while. Then replace the
hand.set on the base unit to complete the code
change.
Note
If the battery pack in the hand.set is
completely di.scharged, or is removed from
the handset for more than several seconds, the
digital security code stored will be lost. If this
happens, charge the battery pack, and a new
.security code will be automatically assigned.
Tip
This procedure will change the code in both
the base unit and the hand.set. The code can
be changed as often as desired.
