Battery Packs
About Battery Packs
The Wireless Telephone will need to have its Battery Pack recharged periodically. The
Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) rechargeable Wireless Telephone Battery Pack gives you
four hours of talk time or 80 hours of stand-by time. Stand-by time is when the phone is
turned on, but you are not using it.
The Wireless Telephone also supports a Nickel-Cadmium (NiCd) Battery Pack, which
supports two hours talk time and 40 hours stand-by.

the Battery Pack.
Depending on the charging equipment you have purchased, you will either place the
Wireless Telephone in a Charging Stand to charge the Battery Pack, or you will remove
the Pack from the Wireless Telephone and install it in the Charger.
Removing and Replacing the Battery Pack on the Wireless
Telephone
To remove the Battery Pack, press down on the oval button above the Battery Pack on the
back of the Wireless Telephone. Slide the Pack toward the bottom of the Wireless
Telephone until it stops, then lift up.
To replace the Battery Pack, first properly align the top of the Battery Pack with the
arrows on the label on the back of the Wireless Telephone. Gently press and slide the
Pack toward the top of the Wireless Telephone until it snaps into place. You should not
have to force it against the Wireless Telephone.
Take care not to short the Battery contacts on the Pack with metal objects such as coins,
keys or paper clips. Shorting the contacts can cause permanent damage.

Charging the Wireless Telephone
Chargers are shipped with the appropriate power supply for the site’s location. Connect
the Stand or Charger to an appropriate wall outlet via its power supply and it’s ready for
use. Chargers operate in a 50° to 85° F (10° to 30° C) environment. Do not expose them
to freezing temperatures or direct sunlight.
The Dual Charging Stand
The SpectraLink Dual Charging Stand is a two-slot desktop charger designed to charge
the Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) Battery Packs required to operate Wireless
Telephones. Full charging is accomplished in
approximately two hours.
Only NiMH Battery Packs with a YELLOW label on the
handset contact side may be charged in the Dual Charging
Stand. Nickel-Cadmium (NiCd) and older NiMH Battery
Packs with a GREEN label will not charge. If the indicator
light does not come on when a Wireless Telephone or
Battery Pack is first placed in the Charger, check to make
sure the Battery Pack has a YELLOW label.
Do not place anything in the Dual Charging Stand other
than the Wireless Telephone. You might damage the
contacts. Bent contacts can keep the Wireless Telephone
from charging.
Using the Dual Charging Stand
Place the Dual Charging Stand on a flat, horizontal surface.
The user must end any call in progress by pressing the
END
key on the Wireless
Telephone before placing the handset into the Charger. Place the Wireless Telephone in
the front compartment facing forward. It may be on or off during charging. A spare
Battery Pack may be placed in the rear slot. Either slot can be chosen to take priority.
The first Battery Pack placed into either slot is charged first.
There are two indicator lights, one for each charging slot. Verify that the light for the
corresponding slot comes on when a Wireless Telephone or Battery Pack is placed into a
charging slot. The light turns off when the Charger is finished charging or a short time
after a fully charged Battery Pack is placed in a slot. An indicator light will not come on
when the slot is empty, when a Battery Pack is improperly seated or is the wrong type, or
when the Charger has no power applied. A fast flash indicates the Battery Pack is not
charging and must be replaced.
Cleaning the Dual Charging Stand
Clean the Dual Charging Stand by wiping the surface with a clean, water-dampened cloth
or paper towel. A mild detergent solution may be used. Be sure to wipe away any

The Quick Charger
The Quick Charger holds a single Battery Pack and can charge it in approximately one
hour.
Using the Quick Charger
Place the Battery Pack on the charger by gently
sliding the Pack upward into the charger in a
manner similar to installing it on the Wireless
Telephone. If placed correctly, the light on the
Quick Charger will shine solid green. When the
Pack is fully charged, the green light will begin
to flash.
Every 11th charge the Quick Charger will
automatically recondition the Battery Pack, as
indicated by the flashing amber light. This may
take from three to six hours depending on the
state of the Battery Pack. To enter or exit the
reconditioning mode, press the
while the Battery Pack is on the Quick Charger.

Maintenance
General Care of the Wireless Telephone and Chargers
This section applies to the Wireless Telephone, Dual Charging Stand and the Quick
Charger equally.
The Wireless Telephone and chargers have been designed to withstand the wear and tear
of normal use; however, avoid dropping the Wireless Telephone or knocking it against
hard surfaces. Carrying the Wireless Telephone in a holster or carrying case will help to
protect it.
There are no serviceable parts in the Wireless Telephone or Chargers. You should not
open the Wireless Telephone case nor disassemble the Chargers. Doing so will void your
warranty.
Turn off the Wireless Telephone and unplug the Charger before you clean them. Never
immerse either in water. Clean the exterior surfaces, including the charging contacts, with
a cloth that has been slightly moistened with water. Take care not to exert undue pressure
on the Charger electrical contacts while wiping.
Wiping the handset surface with a water-dampened cloth or paper towel will remove
most films or residues. If the soiling is too stubborn for plain water, a mild detergent
solution may be used. Be sure to wipe away any detergent residue with a clean waterdampened cloth.
The Wireless Telephone may be cleaned with any general-purpose household glass and
surface-type cleaner. DO NOT SPRAY THE HANDSET DIRECTLY! Isopropyl alcohol
may be used occasionally applied by a cloth or paper towel. When using alcohol, do not
rub the keypad characters vigorously. Doing so will significantly degrade legibility.
Do not use any chemical cleaners. They can harm the plastic shell. If necessary, a small
amount of mild surface or window cleaner can be applied to the cloth, but do not spray
the cleaner onto the Wireless Telephone or Charger.

key.
Keep the Wireless Telephone away from your ear when it is ringing.
The microphone is in the Wireless Telephone’s lower right corner. This is a sensitive
microphone that works well when the Wireless Telephone is correctly positioned on
your ear. There is no need to speak directly into the microphone, but do not cover it
with your hand or cheek when talking on the Wireless Telephone.
The Wireless Telephone’s LCD panel displays information about the status of your
Wireless Telephone and prompts you about features.
If the Wireless Telephone’s Battery Pack is low, you will hear a soft beep and see the
BATT
or
Low Battery
message in the display.
Improper disposal of Battery Packs can damage the environment. Dispose of batteries
properly.
You can control the Wireless Telephone’s volume level and the type of ring. See
Setting User Preferences.
To protect the Wireless Telephone, use a carrying case.
NOTE:
It is recommended that standard acceptance procedures be followed prior to operating
this equipment in proximity of life-support systems.
To minimize risk of interference, pacemaker users should not carry the Wireless
Telephone next to the pacemaker.
Warning: Earpiece may retain magnetic objects.
Operation of the Wireless Telephone may produce an audible noise noticeable to hearing
aid users. It is recommended that a SpectraLink headset be used by hearing aid users.
