The rechargeable batteries for your telephone have a stand-by time of max. 100 hours at room temperature and a
maximum talk time of up to 10 hours. The current battery capacity is shown in the display.
Full
If the battery capacity is too low, the symbol will flash in the display and you will hear warning tones every 60 seconds.
To charge the batteries, place the handset in the base station with the display to the front.
Note: The batteries must be charged for at least 16 hours before being used for the first time. Exactly like your car
battery, the rechargeable batteries are unavoidably subject to a certain ageing. However, you can have an influence
on this ageing process by "training" the batteries to a certain extent. In regular use of the phone, if you cyclically
charge and fully discharge the batteries by using the telephone until the
demand is placed on the batteries and they will repay you by giving maximum performance and a long life. Extended
charging and extended discharging on the other hand will both degrade the capacity and shorten the life of the
batteries.
