Battery charging
Once you have installed the battery, the screen indicates the
battery status (see the table below). If necessary, place the handset
in the telephone base or charger to charge the battery. For best
performance, keep the handset in the telephone base or charger
when not in use. The battery is fully charged after 16 hours of
continuous charging. See page 27 for battery operating times.
If the screen is blank, you need to charge the handset without
interruption for at least 30 minutes to give the handset enough charge to use the
telephone for a short time. The screen shows LOW BATTERY until you have charged the
battery without interruption for at least 30 minutes. The following table summarizes the
battery charge indicators and actions to take.
