Charge the handset
You will need to fully charge your handset before you can
use it for the first time. Leave the handset in the base station
for approximately 16 hours to charge the battery pack.
Battery performance
Batteries and case may become warm during charging.
This is normal. Under ideal conditions, the handset
batteries should give about 10 hours talktime or 100
hours standby time on a single charge. However, new
NiCad batteries do not reach their full capacity until they
have been in normal use for several days.
The charge capacity of rechargeable batteries will reduce with
time as they wear out, so reducing the talk/standby time of
the handset. Eventually they will need to be replaced. New
batteries are available from www.withandwithoutwires.com
or call 0870 240 5522.
If you replace the handset batteries with ones that have
been fully charged, the battery indicator will not show full
until the next charge cycle has been completed. Charge the
handset until the batteries register full again. From then
on the display will be correct.
