Setting up the handset
Connecting the charger
LUse only the included Panasonic AC
adaptor PQLV207.
Note:
LThe AC adaptor must remain connected
at all times. (It is normal for the adaptor
to feel warm during use.)
LThe AC adaptor should be connected to
a vertically oriented or floor-mounted AC
outlet. Do not connect the AC adaptor to
a ceiling-mounted AC outlet, as the
weight of the adaptor may cause it to
become disconnected.

firmly, and slide it in the direction of the
arrow.
LIf necessary, remove the old battery.
2Insert the battery (A), and press it
down until it snaps into position (B).
Then close the handset cover (C, D).
Important:
LUse only the rechargeable Panasonic

purchased.
Please call 1-800-8-BATTERY (1-800-
822-8837) for information on how to
recycle this battery.
Fasten the AC adaptor cord to prevent
it from being disconnected.

Battery charge
Place the handset on the charger for 7
hours before initial use.
While charging, the charge indicator on the
handset lights in amber. When the battery
is fully charged, the indicator lights in
green.
Note:
LIf you want to use the handset
immediately, charge the battery for at
least 15 minutes.
LTo ensure that the battery charges
properly, clean the charge contacts of
the handset and charger with a soft, dry
cloth once a month. Clean more often if
the unit is subject to the exposure of
grease, dust, or high humidity.
Battery level
Note:
LWhen the battery needs to be charged,
the handset beeps intermittently during
use.
Panasonic battery performance
Note:
LBattery operating time may be
shortened over time depending on
usage conditions and surrounding
temperature.
LBattery power is consumed whenever
the handset is off the charger, even
when the handset is not in use. Hence
the longer you leave the handset off the
charger, the less time you may actually
talk using the handset.
LAfter the handset is fully charged,
displaying “Charge completed”, it
may be left on the charger without any ill
effect on the battery.
LThe battery level may not be displayed
correctly after you replace the battery. In
this case, place the handset on the
charger and let charge for 7 hours.
