When powered on for the first
time, the base goes through an
initialization sequence.
Note: Do not use the phone
until the initialization
sequence is complete.
Power backup
batteries (Optional)
The optional back-up batteries provide a reserve
power supply so the base can operate for up to 30
minutes (depending on battery condition) in case of
power outages or if power is cut off to the base for
any reason. Backup power activates immediately
when the normal power supply to the base is cut off.
1Verify power is disconnected from the base.
