Installing The Battery Pack
To install the supplied rechargeable battery pack, place it on the battery
compartment tracks, then slide it up (toward the antenna) until it locks
in place.
Note: You must charge a new battery pack at least 24 hours before you use
it the first time.
When the handset's battery pack no longer recharges, replace the battery
pack. You can order a replacement battery pack from your local RadioShack
store.
To remove the battery pack, press the tab on the back of the handset,
slide the battery down (away from the antenna) until it stops, then lift
it up to remove it.
Note: The phone uses one rechargeable nickel-cadmium battery pack. At
the end of the battery's useful life, it must be recycled or
disposed of properly. contact your local, county, or state
hazardous waste management authorities for information on recycling
or disposal programs in your area. Some options that might be
available are: municipal curbside collection, drop-off boxes at
retailers, recycling collection centers, and mailback programs.
Charging The Battery Pack
You must charge the battery pack at least 24 hours before you use the
ET-910 the first time or when you recharge the battery. To charge or
recharge the battery pack, simply place the handset on the cradle. The
CHARGE indicator lights.
Notes: If the CHARGE indicator does not light or blinks continuously when
you place the handset on the cradle, be sure the battery and AC
adapter are correctly and securely connected. Also, check the
charging contacts on both the handset and base. If the contacts
are dirty or tarnished, clean them with a pencil eraser.
If the handset is charged, and the AC adapter is unplugged from
the AC outlet or the AC outlet loses power, the handset beeps
intermittently until power is restored to the base the security
access-protection code is reset. To turn off the handset sooner
so it stops beeping, press TONE *, #, or any number key (0-9).
If the base loses AC power and the handset is away from the base,
place the handset on the base for a few seconds after AC power is
restored. This resets the security access-protection code.
You can recharge the battery pack at any time, but you must be sure to
recharge the battery pack when the handset's PRIVACY/LOW BATT indicator
lights.
If the battery pack will not hold a charge, replace it. We recommend you
replace the battery pack about once a year.
Notes: The first time you use your phone after charging a new or
completely discharged battery, the handset might not work or it
might sound an error tone when you press TALK. If this happens,
replace the handset on the cradle for about 5 seconds, then try
again.
About once a month, fully discharge the battery. Otherwise, it
will lose its ability to fully recharge, and you might have to
recharge and replace it more often.
To fully discharge the battery, keep the handset off the cradle
until PRIVACY/LOW BATT turns on. Then return the handset to the
base and fully recharge the battery.
Some deeply discharged batteries take longer to charge. If
overnight charging is not sufficient, try charging for up to 48
hours.

which type you have, do this test.

Adjusting The Ringers

can choose from four different ringer types for the base and handset, or
turn off the ringer on one or both.
Note: If you turn off the ringer on the base or handset, you can still
make calls normally using that keypad and you can still answer
calls if you hear another phone on that same line ring (see
"Operation" in Faxback Doc. # 58096).
