Chapter 12: Charging Your Handset
The Battery Pack in your handset is removable. You may charge the Battery Pack either while removed
from or while attached to your handset. Some facilities provide chargers to all users while others
maintain a bin of charged Battery Packs. Ask you system administrator about how your facility provides
chargers if you were not issued one with your handset.
Charging the Battery Pack
You must fully charge your handset’s Battery Pack before you use it for the first time. Depending on the
type of charger you use, this might take several hours.
Only use SpectraLink 8400 Series Battery Packs with SpectraLink 8400 Wireless
Telephones. Check the label on the Battery Pack and ensure the model number is RS657
for the Standard Capacity Battery Pack or RS658 for the Extended Capacity Battery Pack.
Risk of electric shock. Do not expose charger or battery to liquid, vapor, or rain.
The Battery Pack icon at the right side of the status bar of your handset is completely green when it is
fully charged. When the handset is in a charging device and charging, the Battery Pack icon has a
lightning bolt symbol through it. When the background of this icon turns green, the Battery Pack is fully
charged.
