Low Battery Message
When the battery voltage is too low, the headset sounds a “change battery now” message at fifteen-second
intervals to alert the operator to install a fully charged battery. The “change battery now” message continues
for two minutes after which the headset turns off automatically to prevent damage to the batteries.
Charging Batteries
To charge a battery, insert the battery in one of the charging slots.
