Basics
* You need to subscribe to the service from your telephone company. Notes � When you increase the sound volume, in some cases the back ground noise may be increased as well. You should adjust the volume accordingly. � If your conversation is muted and �CHANNEL SEARCHING� appears on the display, move closer to the base phone; otherwise, the call will be disconnected after one minute.
If the battery becomes weak during a call
The handset will beep every three seconds five times and E and �BATTERY LOW� appears on the display. Finish your call and charge the battery pack. For optimum performance, charge the battery for a full 12 hours. Note that during the first 10 - 15 minutes of charging, the phone will be inactive, i.e., unable to make or receive a call. After this initial 10 - 15 minutes, you may be able to use the phone, but the battery duration will be very short; thus it is recommended that you fully charge the battery before the next usage.
