• Battery charge may be shortened depending on usage conditions and ambient temperature.  
• The batteries cannot be overcharged.  
• The batteries will drain even while the unit is “OFF”.  
• The PS can receive calls while charging.  
• Battery consumption increases when the PS is used out of range. If “ ” flashes, power off  
the PS.  
Clean the handset and the charger contacts with a soft, dry cloth once a month. Clean  
more often if the unit is subject to grease, dust or high humidity. Otherwise the  
batteries may not charge properly.  
• Read “Important Notice Concerning the Correct Use and Charging of Ni-MH Batteries.”  
Low Battery Warning  
The batteries needs to be charged when “  
minute.*  
” flashes or the alarm sounds every one  
* If the low battery warning occurs during a conversation, you can continue the call for  
one minute, then the call will be disconnected automatically.  
Replacing the Batteries  
If “  
” flashes after a few telephone calls even when the batteries have been fully  
charged, it is time to replace the batteries with new ones.  
Before replacing the batteries, turn the power off to prevent memory loss. Replace the  
batteries. Charge the new batteries for at least 7 hours.  
If you replace the batteries before the low battery warning appears, the battery strength  
icon may display an incorrect reading. In this case, use the PS as normal with the new  
batteries installed. When the low battery warning is displayed, charge the batteries for  
about 7 hours.  
The battery strength icon will then display a correct reading.  
• Please replace with PANASONIC batteries, part number HHR-4EPT/BA2.  
• Replace both batteries and close the cover then charge the handset for about 7 hours.  
Please use only Panasonic R03P (Ni-MH) batteries, part number HHR-  
4EPT/BA2.

Important Information  
Caution  
To reduce the risk of fire or injury to persons, read and follow these instructions.  
1) Use only the batteries specified.  
2) Do not use non-rechargeable batteries.  
3) Do not mix old and new batteries.  
4) Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire. They may explode. Check with local waste  
management codes for special disposal instructions.  
5) Do not open or mutilate the batteries. Released electrolyte is corrosive and may  
cause burns or injury to the eyes or skin. The electrolyte may be toxic if swallowed.  
6) Exercise care in handling the batteries in order not to short the batteries with  
conductive materials such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The batteries and/or  
conductor may overheat and cause burns.  
7) Charge the batteries provided with or identified for use with this product only in  
accordance with the instructions and limitations specified in this manual.  
Important Notice Concerning the Correct Use and Charging of Ni-MH  
Batteries  
Batteries, due to their construction, undergo some wear and tear. The lifetime of a battery  
also depends on correct maintenance. Charging and discharging are the most important  
factors. You should take notice of the following to maintain the life of the battery as long  
as possible.  
Ni-MH batteries have a kind of memory, the “memory effect.” If fully charged batteries are  
used several times only for 15 minutes in the handset and then recharged, the capacity of  
the batteries will be reduced to 15 minutes due to the memory effect. Therefore you  
should discharge the batteries completely, i.e. use them in the handset until “  
” on the  
display starts flashing. Then recharge them as described in the manual. After the  
memory effect has occurred, it is possible to achieve almost complete capacity of the Ni-  
MH batteries by charging and discharging several times one after another.  
Ni-MH batteries can also self-discharge. This self-discharge depends on the ambient  
temperature. At temperatures under 0 °C, the self-discharge will be the lowest. High  
humidity and high temperatures support the self-discharge. Also long-term storage will  
lead to self-discharge. A dead Ni-MH battery should not be disposed of normally. They  
contain toxic heavy metal hydride and therefore should be recycled.  
Safety Instructions  
Pay special attention to the safety suggestions listed below.  
Safety  
1) Power source: The AC adaptor should be connected to a power supply only of the  
type as marked on the AC adaptor. The AC adaptor is used as the main disconnect  
device, ensure that the AC outlet is located/installed near the unit and is easily  
accessible.  
46  
 
Important Information  
2) Non use periods: When the PS is not being used, turn the power off. When left  
unused for a long period of time, the charger should be unplugged from the AC outlet.  
3) Do not place metal items such as coins or rings on the charger. As they become hot,  
you might get burned if you touch them.  
Installation  
Environment  
1) Water and moisture: Do not use the PS and the charger near water — for example,  
near a bathtub, washbowl, sink, etc. Damp basements should also be avoided.  
2) Heat: The PS and the charger should be kept away from heat sources such as  
radiators, kitchen ranges, etc. They also should not be placed in rooms where the  
temperature is less than 5 °C or greater than 40 °C.  
Placement  
1) Stacking: Do not place heavy objects on top of the PS and charger.  
2) Foreign material: Care should be taken so that objects do not fall onto and liquids are  
not spilled into the PS and charger. Do not subject the PS and charger to excessive  
smoke, dust, mechanical vibration, or shock.  
3) Surface: Place the charger on a flat surface. If the charger is mounted on the wall,  
install it straight.  
For best performance  
Operating Range  
1) The range of operation depends on the topography of your office, weather or usage  
conditions, because signals are transmitted between the Cell Station (CS) and the PS  
by radio waves.  
2) Normally, you get greater range outdoors than indoors. If there are obstacles such as  
walls, noise may interfere with your telephone calls. In particular, high metal shelves  
or reinforced concrete walls will restrict your operating range.  
3) A PS may not work when it is too far from the CS depending on the structure of the  
building.  
Noise  
Occasional noise or interference may occur due to electromagnetic radiation from  
objects such as refrigerators, microwave ovens, faxes, TVs, radios, or personal  
computers. If noise disturbs your telephone calls, keep the PS away from these electrical  
appliances.  
WARNING:  
TO PREVENT FIRE OR SHOCK HAZARD, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS PRODUCT TO  
RAIN OR ANY TYPE OF MOISTURE. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK,  
DO NOT DISASSEMBLE THIS UNIT. TAKE THE UNIT TO AN AUTHORISED SERVICE  
CENTRE WHEN SERVICE IS REQUIRED.
