The battery recharges automatically when the handset is placed on the base unit. Charge the handset battery pack for at least 15-20 hours before using your new cordless telephone for the first time! To maximize the charge capacity of your battery pack, DO NOT plug the telephone cord into the base unit and wall jack until the battery is fully charged. 1) Press down on the handset battery case cover (use the finger indention for a better grip) and slide the cover downward to remove. 2) Plug the battery pack connector (red & black wires) into the small, black jack inside the battery compartment. (The connector notches fit into the grooves of the jack only one-way.) Match the wire colors to the polarity label in the battery compartment, connect the battery and listen for a click to insure connection. 3) Make certain you have made a good connection by slightly pulling on the battery wires to insure that there is a secure connection. If the battery connector is not securely connected, the handset will not charge properly. www.uniden.com G E T T I N G S TA R T E D !
