Intelligent charging
Your Colombo supports Intelligent Charging, this means when the cordless
handset is fully charged, the base will automatically detect this and stop drawing
power from the mains to charge the handset, saving unnecessary
power usage.
IMPORTANT
Warning! Use only the approved rechargeable Ni-MH battery cells (2 x AAA Ni-MH
750mA rechargeable batteries) supplied with your Colombo.
