Battery Life
Fully charged battery cells provide an average talk time of about 8 hours or
standby time of 5 days.
NOTE: Talk time and standby time may vary depending on operating conditions.
Battery Indicator
Ten minutes before the battery charge level gets too low to operate the Handset,
an empty battery icon will start flashing, five short tones will sound, and a LOW
BATTERY message is displayed.
If you continue to use the Handset without charging or replacing the battery
cells (spare battery cells purchased separately), the Handset will turn off auto-
matically when the battery charge level is no longer sufficient to power up the
Handset, and the call will be dropped.
Charging the Handset Battery Cells
After a low battery indication, place the Handset in the charger, and ensure that
the CHARGING light turns on. With the exception of the first charge, the battery
cells are typically charged in 8 hours.
NOTE: If you repeatedly get a low battery cells indication, even after 8 hours of
charging, then the battery should be replaced.
As you register additional Handsets to your i 5853, i5857, i5866 or i 5867
system, they will be assigned extension numbers in the following order:
HANDSET 2, HANDSET 3, HANDSET 4, and so forth.
Whenever a charged Handset battery cells are installed, the Handset will
automatically begin Searching for Base... (if previously registered), or it will
prompt you to Enter Base ID to register the new Handset.
BEFORE USING YOUR HANDSET(S), CAREFULLY PEEL OFF THE
PROTECTIVE FILM COVERING THE DISPLAY.
