Desktop Charging Your Battery
A The Desktop Charger is an optional accessory that allows you to
charge both the battery fitted in your phone and a spare
battery at the same time.
Batteries charge in about 2 to 3 hours, depending on the battery.
A It is normal for batteries to become warm during charging.
1 Connect the charger to the desktop charger socket.
(The connector is keyed and can only be inserted one way.)
2 Plug the charger into a standard mains socket.
3 Insert your phone into the desktop charger as shown.
A spare battery can be charged on its own or at the same time as your
phone. Insert the battery into the desktop charger as shown.
A For maximum NiMH battery charging, you should double the
charge time.
A Charge times will increase if you make or receive phone calls
while charging.
Battery Indicators
Your Motorola cellular phone includes the Motorola Expert Performance
(
¢ ) charging system. This enables the charging circuits in both the phone
and the optional ( ¢ ) desktop charger to communicate directly with the battery. Based on this
communication, the charger can implement the optimum charging cycle for best performance and
determine the level of charge.
Your phone monitors and displays information about your battery. The following message will
appear on the display, as the condition occurs:
Battery Meter Indicators
The battery meter displays different messages depending on the batteries attached, and whether
or not there is an external power source. The battery meter is found in the Call Related Features
part of the Options Menu.
A When the battery is completely discharged, you must charge the battery for one
minute before you can make or accept a phone call.
Low Battery The battery charge is low. The battery should be recharged.
Insert Battery No battery fitted; external power connected
Invalid Battery This message is accompanied by a single beep. Your phone is
alerting you that you do not have charging capabilities with this
battery even though the battery may be able to power the phone.
The most likely reason why your charging system does not
recognise the battery is that the battery you have purchased is not
a Motorola original battery and therefore does not have the
communications technology built into it. All Motorola original
batteries include this communications technology.
It is recommended that you use only Motorola original batteries,
chargers and other accessories.
Charging Battery The battery is being charged.
Charging Complete Charging is complete.
Invalid Battery Battery may be defective, or may not be a Motorola original battery.
