CAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire or injury to persons or damage to the telephone, read and follow these instructions carefully: Charge the battery provided with or identified for use with this product only in accordance with the instructions and limitations specified in this User's Manual. Replacing the Handset Battery Pack 1 Remove the battery compartment cover on the handset by pressing on the indentation and sliding the cover downward. 3 Align the two holes in the new battery pack's plug with the socket pins, and snap the plug into place. Place the battery pack in the compartment with the wires in the lower left corner, along the bottom of the battery pack. Place the handset in the base and allow it to charge for at least 12 hours the first charge. The telephone might operate before that, but for best performance, let the battery pack charge fully. 15 IN CASE OF DIFFICULTY If you have difficulty operating this phone, try the suggestions below. Please retain your receipt as your proof of purchase If the phone doesn't work at all, check these items first: · Make sure the AC adapter is plugged into an outlet not controlled by a wall switch. · Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged firmly into the base unit and the modular jack. · If the handset does not beep when you press PHONE, the battery might need charging. · If you have dial pulse (rotary) service on your phone line, make sure the dial mode is set to dial pulse (see INSTALLATION). If you experience interference, move away from the microwave If the above suggestions don't solve the problem, try re-initializing the handset and base: 1 Disconnect the power to the base. If you hear a two-beep signal when you try to use the handset: · You might be out of range. · If moving closer to the base doesn't help, try following the directions above for re-initializing the handset and base. If the phone does not ring when you receive a call: · Make sure the handset ringer is on. · Make sure the telephone line cord is connected firmly to the base and the telephone jack. · Make sure the AC adapter is plugged firmly into an outlet not controlled by a wall switch. · You might have too many extension phones on your telephone line to allow all of them to ring. If you hear noise or interference when using the phone: · Make sure the base antenna is fully upright. · Press and release PROG/CHAN to change to another of the 30 channels available. If noise is exceptionally loud, move closer to the base before changing channels. · Household appliances plugged into the same circuit as the base can sometimes cause interference.
