R Clean the charge contacts of the handset, base unit, and charger with a soft and dry cloth
once a month. Before cleaning the unit, disconnect from power outlets and any telephone line
cords. Clean more often if the unit is exposed to grease, dust, or high humidity.
Saving battery power
R The amount of time you can use the handset before the battery needs to be charged varies
depending on how you are using it. Each of the following can help you save battery power.
– Turn off the screen when you are not using the handset (page 16).
– Use the control panel to turn off the handset’s Wi-Fi, GPS, and Bluetooth features. See the
Operating Instructions for more information (download information is on page 1).
– When you are away from home, use the control panel to turn off the handset’s DECT connection to the base unit. Note that if you do not turn the connection back on when you
return home, you will not be able to make or receive calls using the handset. See the
Operating Instructions for more information (download information is on page 1).
