Battery Check:
The Pendant battery should last at least 4 months in standby mode before
needing recharging. And, up to one hour of talk time when fully charged.
One benet is that it has a built-in battery test button. When you press the
Gray button at the back of the Pendant for two seconds, a voice announce-
ment will inform you of the battery condition. One of the following mes-
sages will be heard:
“Battery is ok.”
Check the battery condition twice a month.
“Battery is low.”
The battery should be replaced within the next week.
“Replace battery now.”
The battery should be replaced now with a fully charged battery.
To replace the battery - simply exchange the battery in the Pendant with the
battery that has been charging in the Base unit.
Please note: If there is no response after pressing the button for one second
or more, the battery is dead and must be replaced immediately.
The battery should be tested at least twice a month along
with the System Check outlined on the next page.
When it gets to the point after a few years that the pendant battery only lasts
4 weeks before needing to be charged - it is then time to replace both of the
Pendant batteries. Note: This is a very unusual battery not available at most
outlets. Order replacement batteries from your dealer or service provider as
directed on page 22.
NOTE: The Pendant does a self test on the pendant battery
every 13 hours. When the battery level gets to the “Replace
battery now” level, it will send a signal to the central station
to notify them of this situation. We recommend you swap the
battery out with a fully charged pendant battery when the
battery test button says “Replace battery soon”.
