Charging the Battery Pack
The rechargeable Nickel-Cadmium battery
pack must be fully charged before using
your phone for the first time. Before
plugging the phone line into your new
phone, you must charge the battery for
approximately 15-20 hours without
interruption.
1. Remove the handset
battery cover.
2. Plug the battery’s cable into the handset.
NOTE: The plastic connectors will fit together only
one way. Make sure the battery’s
connector is properly aligned. Use only the
battery pack (model BT-905) supplied with
your phone.
3. Replace the battery cover.
▼ Charging the Handset
Place the handset on the
base to charge.
▼ Low Battery Indicator
When the battery
pack in the handset
is low and needs to
be charged, the
TALK/BATT LOW
LED flashes every
3 seconds.
If this occurs while you are on the phone,
you will hear a tone. Complete your call as
quickly as possible, and return the handset
to the base for charging.
▼ Cleaning the Battery Contacts
To maintain a good
charge, it is important
to clean all battery
contacts on the
handset about once a
month. Use a damp
cloth.
Do not use any
liquids or solvents.
Selecting a Location
Before choosing a location for your new
phone, read the “Important Safety
Instructions”.
NOTE: • Do not place the power cord in an area
where it may create a trip hazard or
become chafed and create a fire or
electrical hazard.
• If your home has specially wired alarm
equipment connected to the telephone
line, be sure that installing the system
does not disable your alarm equipment.
If you have questions about what will
disable your alarm equipment, contact
your telephone company or a
qualified installer.
