Low battery alert • Even when the battery pack is not being used, it will gradually discharge over a long period of time. For optimum performance, be sure to return the handset to the base unit after a telephone call. When the battery pack is very low and needs to be charged, the phone is programmed to eliminate functions in order to save power. If the phone is not in use, Low Battery appears on the LCD and none of the keys will operate. If the phone is in use, Low Battery flashes and the handset beeps. Complete your conversation as quickly as possible and return the handset to the base unit for charging. Dial mode setting, last number dialed, names and numbers stored in memory locations (including RocketDial), CID list are retained for up to 30 minutes while you replace the battery pack. Cleaning the battery charging contacts • Talk Mode The handset is off the base and the talk/flash key has been pressed, enabling a dial tone. • Standby Mode The handset may be sitting in or off the base, but is NOT in use. The talk/flash key has not been pressed and there is no dial tone. To maintain a good charge, it is important to clean the charging contacts on the handset once a month. Using water only, dampen a cloth to clean the charging contacts. Then make sure to go back over the charging contacts with a dry cloth before returning the handset to the base to charge. Do not use paint thinner, benzene, alcohol, or other chemical products. Doing so may discolor the surface of the telephone and damage the finish. [ 12 ] G E T T I N G S T A R T E D www.uniden.com
