CONNECTING AND CHARGING THE BATTERY

The ET-536 comes with a rechargeable nickel-cadmium battery installed in
the handset.  Before using your phone, you must connect the battery then
charge it for about 24 hours.

1.  Remove the screw on the battery compartment cover on the bottom of the
    handset.  Press down and slide off the handset's battery compartment
    cover in the direction of the arrow.

2.  Insert the battery pack's plastic connector into the phone's socket.
    The plug fits only one way.

3.  Replace the cover and tighten the screw.

4.  To charge the battery, simply place the handset on the base.

The CHARGE indicator on the base lights.

Recharge the battery when the BATT LOW indicator flashes.

NOTES:  If the CHARGE indicator does not light when you place the handset
        on the base, be sure the battery and AC adapter are correctly and
        securely connected.

        When you first use the phone after charging or recharging the
        battery, the phone might not work and you might hear an error tone.
        If this happens, return the handset to the base for about 5 seconds.

        If the BATT LOW indicator does not light, but the phone does not
        work, recharge the battery.  The battery charge might be too low to
        light the indicator.

        If the battery pack gets weak during a call, the handset sounds a
        beep every 30 seconds, and the BATT LOW indicator flashes every 3
        seconds. If this happens, you cannot make another call on the phone
        until you recharge the battery.

        About once a month, fully discharge the battery by keeping the
        handset off the base until the BATT LOW indicator lights.  Other-
        wise, the battery loses its ability to fully recharge.

        Using a pencil eraser, clean the charging contacts on the handset
        and the base about once a month to make sure they are not dirty or
        tarnished.

        If the battery gets completely discharged, the ET-536 loses the
        security access-protection code.  To reset the security code, place
        the handset on the base and charge the battery.

        The supplied battery should last for about a year. When the battery
        loses its ability to fully recharge, order a replacement battery
        from your local Radio Shack store (see "Replacing the Battery" on
        Faxback Doc. # 37015).
