flash (and the battery is not charged).

repeats every 5 minutes if the phone is in       │ LOW     │
the standby mode, or every minute during a call. └─────────┘

When the battery is fully discharged, the        ┌─────────┐

                                                 └─────────┘

BATTERY PERFORMANCE

Batteries last longer and perform better if you allow them to discharge
fully at least once a week.  You can do this by leaving the phone on
overnight, until the phone displays RECHARGE BATTERY and turns off.  Or,
you can use the deep-discharge facility available on your (optional)
Desktop Rapid Charger (Cat. No. 17-737).

STORAGE

When a battery is not in use, store it uncharged in a cool, dark and dry
place.  If left unused, a fully-charged battery loses its charge in a few
weeks at room temperature.

NO SERVICEABLE PARTS

The battery is a sealed unit; do not attempt to open the case.

Do not short-circuit the terminals.

DISPOSAL OF BATTERIES

At the end of the battery's useful life, it must be recycled or disposed
of properly.  Contact your local, county, or state hazardous waste
management authorities for information on recycling or disposal programs
in your area.  Some options that might be available are:  municipal
curbside collection, drop-off boxes at retailers, recycling collection
centers, and mail-back programs.
