Try resetting the phone by unplugging it from
the mains and taking the battery pack out of
the cordless handset for a few seconds.
Now reconnect the battery pack, plug in the
base unit, put the cordless handset back on the
cradle charging unit and try again.
Recharging the handset battery pack
When fully charged and in good condition, the
handset battery pack in the cordless handset
will last for up to five hours of continuous use. If
the battery pack is running low, the handset will
display a flashing BATT warning message. If you
are making a call, the handset will give a series
of beeps and the BATT warning message will
stay on the display. You will have approximately
10 seconds before the call is cut off.
Leaving the cordless handset on the cradle
charging unit to recharge overnight will
usually keep it working properly during
the day.
If in time you find that the battery pack is not
holding enough charge, you can get a new
battery pack from BT shops or your supplier.
To change the handset battery pack
• Slide open the battery cover on the back of
the cordless handset. Disconnect the
connector and take out the old battery pack.
• Put the new battery pack in the
compartment. (Remember to plug in the
battery pack connector.)
• Put the battery pack cover back on, and put
the handset on the cradle charging unit.
• Leave the cordless handset to recharge for
24 hours.

Battery-saving tips
To extend the life of your cordless handset battery
pack, it is a good idea to take the cordless handset
off the cradle charging unit for around two hours
every day or let the handset run down completely
once every six months.
The handset seems to be ‘dead’
Check that the mains power to the cradle
charging unit is switched on.
Make sure the cordless handset battery pack is
fully charged.
