8. Insert each battery to be charged into a slot on the charger. The charge
indicator lights for each slot will light steadily red to indicate that the
battery is charging or green to indicate that the battery is fully charged.
9. When charging is complete, the batteries are ready for use.
Notes:
A fully discharged (dead) battery can take as long as 3 ½ hours to recharge.
Fully charged batteries should be stored whenever they are not in use.
Leaving them on the charger does not harm them or waste energy.

Install the Base Station
Choose a Location
Generally, the base station should be located centrally, and close to the order
takers. However there are several important guidelines that must be followed to
reduce the risk of problems. Follow the guidelines to ensure that the base
station(s) can communicate with headsets in any foreseeable location:
• Do not assume that the location of an old base station is suitable for a
new base station.
• The LCD screen should be approximately 5 ft (1.5 m) from the floor.
• The base station should be at least 3 ft (1 m) from large metallic
fixtures or appliances.
• The base station should be within 6 ft (2 m) of a 110VAC, 15A or 20A
electrical outlet.
• The base station should be placed away from inside corners, airborne
grease, and moisture.
• Easily visible and the keypad accessible.
