3. Operating Instructions

3.1 Initial Charge

After installing the new battery, it is crucial to perform an initial charge. Place the handset on its charging base for a continuous period of 12 to 15 hours, even if the phone indicates a full charge sooner. This ensures the battery reaches its full capacity and optimizes its lifespan.

3.2 Regular Charging

For daily use, return the handset to its charging base when not in use. The battery is designed to be continuously charged without damage. If the phone will not be used for an extended period (e.g., several weeks), it is advisable to fully charge the battery, then remove it from the handset, and store it in a cool, dry place. Recharge it every few months to prevent deep discharge.

4. Maintenance and Care

• Avoid Deep Discharge: While Ni-CD batteries can tolerate deep discharge, frequent deep discharge can reduce overall battery life. Try to recharge before the battery is completely depleted.
• Temperature: Store and operate the battery within recommended temperature ranges (typically 0°C to 45°C or 32°F to 113°F). Extreme heat or cold can degrade battery performance and lifespan.
• Cleaning: Keep the battery and phone contacts clean and free of dust or debris. Use a dry, soft cloth for cleaning.
• Disposal: When the battery reaches the end of its life, dispose of it responsibly at a designated recycling facility. Do not throw it in household waste.
