RISK OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS REPLACED BY AN  
INCORRECT TYPE. Refer to the original type supplied with this  
telephone. Ni-MH batteries must be disposed of in accordance with  
applicable waste disposal regulations.  
Charging the handset  
An empty battery icon indicates the batteries need recharging. Place  
the handset on the base cradle to recharge the batteries. You should  
hear a parking tone (double beep) when handset is put on the charging  
cradle. The handset battery icon scrolls during charging. Handset may  
take some time to power up and it may get warm during initial charge.  
This is normal. A handset reaching a very low battery voltage level will go  
into sleep mode, displaying LOW BATT on the screen.

when it is not in use or every evening to ensure the handset is always  
fully charged
