Getting started
To keep your batteries in the best condition, leave the handset off the base
for a few hours at a time.
Running the batteries right down at least once a week will help them last as
long as possible.
The charge capacity of rechargeable batteries will reduce with time as they
wear out, giving the handset less talk / standby time. Eventually they will
need to be replaced.
After charging your handset for the rst time, subsequent charging time is
about 6–8 hours a day. Batteries and handset may become warm during
charging. This is normal.

All talk and standby times are approximate and depend on features selected
and usage pattern.
