Getting started
Battery low warning
If is shown on the display, recharge the parent unit before using it again.
When charging, will scroll on the display.
Battery performance
In ideal conditions, fully charged batteries should give up to 10 hours usage
time or up to 15 hours standby time on a single charge.
Note that new batteries do not reach their full capacity until they have been
put to normal use for several days.
The charge capacity of the rechargeable battery will reduce with time as it
wears out, giving the parent unit less usage / standby time. Eventually it will
need to be replaced.
Batteries and the parent unit may become warm during charging. This is
normal.
Your PIP11 is now ready for use.
