Preparing for Use
Before you can use your cordless telephone, you must charge the HANDSET for 12 hours.
Failure to do so will require recharging of the BATTERY PACK more often.
1. Place the HANDSET on the BASE UNIT for 12 hours.
2. After 12 hours, remove the HANDSET from the BASE UNIT.
Before you can use your cordless telephone, you must charge the HANDSET for
12 hours. Failure to do so will require more frequent charging of the BATTERY PACK.
NOTE:
Depending on the frequency of use, once the HANDSET is fully charged, it remains
functional for approximately 7 hours of continuous use and approximately 10 days when the
HANDSET is off the BASE UNIT in STANDBY mode.
1. When the phone rings, the LCD Screen of all of the
HANDSETS registered to the system will display
“Ring.” If you have Caller ID, the LCD Screen will
display the Caller ID information after the first ring.
2. With the HANDSET on or off of the BASE UNIT, press
the button. “Talk” will be displayed and the Call
Timer starts to count. Start your conversation.
3. To end your conversation, either press the button
or place the HANDSET on the BASE UNIT. The
duration of the call will be displayed on the LCD
Screen for about 3 seconds and then returns the LCD
Screen to the STANDBY mode.

Receiving Calls
When a call is received, all of the HANDSETS registered to the system will ring with the RINGER
LEVEL and MELODY selected by the user. The first HANDSET to respond will get the call.
NOTE:
If you are too far away from the BASE UNIT, the HANDSET emits “beep” sounds to warn you
that the background noise level is too high for proper communication between the HANDSET
and the BASE UNIT. When you hear this sound, you should move closer to the BASE UNIT to
reduce the noise level. Otherwise, the call will automatically cut off.
