Battery installation

Before using the telephone, you should install four good AA alkaline batteries

If you unplug the telephone from the wall jack, or you lose telephone service for over 0 minutes, and good batteries are not installed, the following information is lost: call list, numbers stored in the directory, redial list, and all settings in the feature menu. We recommend that you initially install new batteries and change the batteries soon after the low battery icon appears.
