The charge level of the batteries in the handset is shown in the display:
Batteries dead Batteries up to 40 %
charged
Batteries up to 0 % Batteries up to 80 %
charged charged
Batteries fully charged.
The first time you charge the batteries, we recommend an uninterrupted
charging time of at least 1 hours, regardless of the charge level display!
After each call, you can return your handset to the base station. Electronic
control ensures optimum and protective charging of the batteries.
The batteries warm up during charging; this is a perfectly normal process
and is not dangerous.
The charge level for the batteries displayed is only correct after an
uninterrupted charging / discharging process. You should not, therefore,
open the battery compartment unnecessarily.
Remark: The charge level display is used for orientation of the remained
energy reserve.
Recommended batteries:
Use only Nickel cadmium (NiCd) or Nickel metal hydride (NiMH) batteries with
a minimum battery capacity (NiCd: 700 mAh and above, or NiMH: 1200 mAh
and above).
For replacement or as a reserve, we recommend rechargeable, standard
batteries with the above minimum capacities.
The use of other battery types or non-rechargeable batteries /
primary cells can be dangerous and can also lead to
malfunctions or damage to the telephone. The manufacturer
accepts no liability in such cases.
