Charge the parent unit battery
When you have connected the parent unit and
installed its battery for the first time or after a
power outage, the parent unit will power on
automatically. The battery icon indicates the
battery status (see the following table).
The parent unit battery is fully charged after
3 hours of continuous charging.
It takes longer to charge the battery when the
parent unit is turned on. To shorten the charging
time, turn the parent unit off while charging.
The standby time varies depending on the
sensitivity level you set, your actual use and the
age of the battery.
