Note
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: � Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. � Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. � Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. � Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Notes � Use only the supplied AC-T127 AC power adaptor. Do not use any other AC power adaptor. � Connect the AC power adaptor to a continuous power supply. � Place the base unit close to the AC outlet so that you can unplug the AC power adaptor easily. Tip If your telephone outlet is not modular, contact your telephone service company for assistance.

Caution

Slide open the battery compartment lid of the handset. Connect the battery connector with correct polarity (black wire goes on lower side and red wire goes on upper side), and hook the cords. Insert the battery pack, and close the lid. Place the handset on the base unit. The LINE/CHARGE lamp lights up when the handset is properly seated on the charge terminals of the base unit. Charge the battery pack for more than 12 hours so that the battery is fully charged. The LINE/ CHARGE lamp remains lit even after charging is completed.
Choose the best location
Away from noise sources such as a window by a street with heavy traffic Away from television sets and other electronic equipment Away from heat sources, such as radiators, airducts, and sunlight Away from a microwave oven Away from excessive moisture, extremely low temperatures, dust, mechanical vibration, or shock
Battery duration
A fully charged battery pack lasts for about: � 10 hours when you use the handset continuously. � 30 days when the handset is in standing by.
Notes � The battery pack will gradually discharge over a long period of time, even if not in use. � If you leave the battery pack in the handset without charging it, the battery pack will be completely discharged. It may require several times of charging to recover to its full capacity. � If the battery runs out completely, the setting of dialing mode, the speed dial numbers and the digital security code will be erased. If this happens, charge it on the base unit for over 12 hours. Then choose the dialing mode, set the ringer type, reprogram the speed dial numbers, and assign a new digital security code (see �Resetting the digital security code�). You may need to charge the battery several times before it is recharged to its full capacity.
To obtain the best performance from battery
Away from a personal computer Near a central location and on a level surface Away from a another cordless telephone
Do not place the handset on the base unit after each call. The battery works best if the handset is returned to the base unit after two or three calls. However, do not leave the handset off the base unit for a long period of time as this will completely discharge the battery pack.
When to purchase a new battery pack
If the battery lasts only a few minutes even after 12 hours of charging, the usable life of the battery has expired and needs replacement. Contact your local Sony authorized dealer or service center, and ask for Sony BP-T50 rechargeable battery pack.
Note Battery life may vary depending on usage condition and ambient temperature.
