Charging time: (empty battery pack) to full capacity 6 - 7
hours.
Talk time: up to 8 hours (with fully charged battery pack).
Standby time: up to 80 hours (with fully charged battery pack).
The charge status of the battery pack is indicated by FGHI
on the display. This means:
FGHI battery pack fully charged (75 – 100 %)
FGH battery pack 50 – 75 %
FG battery pack 25 – 50 %
F battery pack 0 – 25 %
F (frame flashes) battery is empty: alert tone has been
given.
There is no status display after replacing the battery pack
before a complete charge cycle has been completed.
When the handset is placed in the charger, the flashing seg-
ments indicate the charging process. If the Optical Charge
Indication is enabled (see page 17) and flashing, than the bat-
teries are fully charged.
When the battery pack‘s capacity is almost exhausted, an
acoustic warning is given in the form of 3 short ”beep” sig-
nals. If you are in the middle of a call, then you still have up to
5 minutes talk time before the handset switches itself off.
Initial Setup and Operation
The handset can be operated on up to 10 different DECT
systems. To do so, it has to be registered to each DECT
system.

Initial
Operation
The battery pack can be charged and discharged hundreds
of times, but sooner or later it will be worn out. If the opera-
ting time (i.e. talk and standby time) are significantly shorter
than usual, then it is time to replace the battery pack.
To maintain optimum operating time, the battery pack should
be discharged from time to time by not placing the handset in
the charger but leaving it switched on until it switches itself
off. Only use this method to discharge the battery pack.
Extreme temperatures influence the charging capability of the
battery pack.
Charging the Battery Pack
Charge the battery pack at least 6 - 7 hours before initial use
of the handset. This protective measure extends the service
life of the battery pack.
The maximum power output is only attained after three to five
charging and discharging cycles.
Place the handset regularly in the charger thus ensuring opti-
mum charging of the battery pack.
When replacing the battery pack, pay attention to the correct
polarity. It is essential to make sure that only battery pack
types approved by the manufacturer are used.
Do not use normal batteries (primary cells)! The manufacturer
does not accept liability for malfunctions or damage caused
by using other battery pack types or normal batteries.
