handset from the cradle so you don't have to waste time pushing buttons. AutoStandby allows you to hang
up by simply returning the handset to the cradle.
To protect you against mis-billed calls that might result from your phone being activated by other
equipment, one of more than 10,000 digital security codes is set for your phone.

Talk and Standby Times

With average use, your handset battery provides approximately 6 hours of talk time and approximately 10
days of standby time. When your handsets are not being used and are left off of their charging cradles,
the battery will gradually discharge. You can achieve optimum battery life and performance by returning
the handset to the charging cradle after each use. If the handset is left off of the charging cradle, the
actual talk time duration will be reduced respective to the amount of time the handset is off of the
charging cradle.

material where the base unit will be placed.

Dampen a cloth with plain water. Gently rub the damp cloth over
the charging contacts until all visible dirt is removed. Dry the
contacts thoroughly before returning the handset to the cradle.
Caution
Do not use paint thinner, benzene,
alcohol, or other chemical products.
Doing so may discolor the surface of
the telephone and damage the finish.
