5. Setup and Installation

Follow these steps to install your new replacement battery:

1. Locate the Battery Compartment: On your cordless telephone handset, identify the battery compartment, typically located on the back.
2. Remove Old Battery: Open the battery compartment cover. Carefully disconnect the old battery's connector from the handset's port. Remove the old battery.
3. Insert New Battery: Connect the new JustGreatDealz BT-1007 battery's connector to the corresponding port in the handset. Ensure the connector is firmly seated and oriented correctly (it is usually keyed to prevent incorrect insertion).
4. Position Battery: Place the new battery into the compartment, ensuring wires are not pinched.
5. Close Compartment: Replace the battery compartment cover securely.
6. Initial Charge: Place the handset on its charging base. Allow the battery to charge for a minimum of 12-15 hours before its first use, even if the phone indicates a full charge sooner. This initial charge is crucial for conditioning the NiMH battery.

6. Operating Instructions

Once installed and initially charged, your telephone handset should operate normally. Keep the handset on the charging base when not in use to maintain battery charge.

• Normal Use: Use your cordless phone as you normally would.
• Recharging: When the phone's battery indicator shows low charge, return the handset to its charging base.
• Battery Memory: NiMH batteries have a minimal 'memory effect' compared to older NiCD batteries. However, occasional full discharge and recharge cycles (once every few months) can help maintain optimal battery life.

7. Maintenance

Proper maintenance can extend the life of your battery:

• Storage: If storing the battery for an extended period, charge it to about 50% capacity and store in a cool, dry place. Recharge every 3-6 months to prevent deep discharge.
• Temperature: Avoid exposing the battery to extreme temperatures (hot or cold), as this can degrade performance and lifespan.
• Cleaning: Keep the battery contacts and the phone's charging contacts clean and free of dust or debris. Use a dry, soft cloth for cleaning.

8. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your new battery, consider the following:

• Phone Not Turning On/No Power:
  • Ensure the battery connector is fully and correctly inserted into the handset.
  • Verify the handset is properly seated on the charging base and the base is powered.
  • Allow for the initial 12-15 hour charge.
• Battery Not Holding Charge:
  • Confirm the initial long charge cycle was completed.
  • Check if the phone's charging contacts or battery contacts are dirty.
  • The battery may require a few charge/discharge cycles to reach full capacity.
• Short Talk Time:
  • Ensure the battery is fully charged.
  • Battery capacity can decrease over time with extensive use.

If problems persist after following these steps, please refer to the support section.
