After your Panasonic batteries are fully charged [at 25 °C]:

While not in use (Standby)
10 hrs approx.
120 hrs approx.
• 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.
