WARNING:
Fully charged high-capacity rechargeable batteries should be handled with
care. Replace only with the battery recommended by the manufacturer. Do not
disassemble it or attempt to recharge the battery outside the system. Do not
crush, puncture, dispose of in a fire, short the external contacts, or expose to
high temperature or immerse in water or other liquids. Dispose of the battery
in accordance with local regulations and instructions from your service
provider
.
1
Turn the residential gateway so that you are facing the side with the battery
compartment.
2
Gently release the latch to open the battery cover and gain access to the battery
compartment.
3
Insert the battery into the battery compartment. Do not force the battery into the
compartment, but be sure to press the battery all the way in until it seats fully.
4
Close the battery compartment door.
Important:
After you install the residential gateway and plug it into an AC
electrical outlet as described in
Install the Wireless Residential Voice Gateway
(on page 18), it can take as long as 24 hours for the battery to charge fully.
However, you can begin using your high-speed Internet and telephone service
immediately after installation. See
Normal Operations (AC Power Applied)
(on
page 24) for information on how the LEDs on the front of the residential gateway
indicate the state of the battery charge.
How Do I Mount the Wireless Residential Voice Gateway on a Wall? (Optional)
Your residential gateway may include mounting holes so that, if you wish, you can
mount the residential gateway to a wall. This section describes how to mount the
residential gateway to a wall, and includes a list of equipment you will need along
with suggestions for choosing an appropriate place to mount the residential
gateway.
Important:
If you have not already done so, insert the battery in the residential
gateway before you mount the residential gateway on a wall (if desired) or before
you install the residential gateway in your home. For assistance inserting the battery
in the residential gateway, go to
Install the Battery
(on page 13).
