The handset registers automatically. Registration takes around 1 minute. During this process Regstr.Procedure appears in the display and the name of the base station flashes e.g. Base 1. The handset will be assigned the lowest unassigned internal number (1­4). This will appear in the display when registration is complete, e.g. INT 1. This means that the number 1 has been assigned. If the internal numbers 1­4 are already assigned to other units, the number 4 is overwritten. ¤ Place the handset in the base station During handset operation, the battery icon indicates the charge status of the batteries (page 1). The correct charge status can only be displayed if the batteries are first fully charged and discharged. ¤ To do this, leave the handset in the charging cradle uninterrupted for 10 hours. Your handset doesn't need to be switched on for charging. ¤ Once the batteries are fully charged, remove the handset from the cradle and do not put it back again until the batteries are fully discharged. Note: After the initial charge and discharge you may replace your handset in the charging cradle after every call. Please note: Notes: ­ Automatic registration is only possible while no-one is making calls using the base station. ­ Each key press interrupts the automatic registration. ­ If automatic registration does not work, you will have to register the handset manually. ­ You can change the name of the handset (page 24). u Always repeat the charging and dis- charging procedure if you remove the batteries from the handset and insert them in again. u The batteries may warm up as they are charging. This is not dangerous. u After a time the charge capacity of the batteries will decrease for technical reasons. Your phone is now ready for use. To charge the batteries, leave the handset in the charging cradle. ¤ Set the date and the time (page 8), for example to ensure the correct time of incoming calls is recorded. Notes: ­ When the handset is in the base station, it charges even if it is switched off. ­ If the handset has switched itself off because the batteries are flat and is then placed in the cradle, it will switch itself on automatically. ­ The handset must only be placed in the designated base station.
