•Use only the supplied AC adapter (AD-0005). Do not
use other AC adapters.
• Place the charger close to the AC outlet so that you can
unplug the AC adapter easily.
Step 2: Install the Batteries and charge your
new handset for 15-20 hours
1Remove the battery compartment cover. Press down on the
semi-circle indent and slide the cover off.
2Charge the battery for 15-20 hours before using. To charge the
batteries, place the handset on the charger. While charging,
the symbol scrolls. When the battery is fully charged and the
phone is off the cradle, all the bars of the battery symbol will
be filled. If the symbol does not appear, reposition the handset
in the charger, ensuring that the charging points contact.
NOTE: Once your handset is fully charged, your phone is
designed for the charge LED to turn off for approximately
4 seconds during the following instances:
1) just after reaching a full charge
2) 1 minute after reaching a full charge
3) every 5 minutes after reaching a full charge
To alleviate the charge LED from blinking on the charger
base, you can simply remove the handset from the
charging cradle.
You may also select to leave the handset in the cradle
which will not damage the unit. Once fully charged, you
may notice the charge LED light will turn off for 4 seconds
every 5 minutes. This is normal operation and does not
mean your unit is defective.

Cleaning the battery charging contacts

contacts on the handset once a month. Dampen
a cloth with plain water. Gently rub the damp
cloth over the charging contacts until all visible
dirt is removed. Dry the contacts thoroughly
before returning the handset to the cradle.

chemical products. Doing so may discolor the surface of the
telephone and damage the finish.
