Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery. A
new battery is partially charged and an alarm will warn
you when the battery reaches low.
We recommend that you do not remove the battery
when the phone is switched on: you may lose all your
personal settings (see information on battery safety,
page 98).
1. Once the battery and battery cover are clipped on
the phone, plug the connector of the charger
(supplied with the phone, in the box) into the
LEFT hand socket at the base of the phone on one
end, then plug it into a main AC power socket
with easy access on the other end.
2. The battery symbol indicates the state of charge:
• During charging the 4 charge indicators change;
Each bar represents around 25% of charge and it
takes around 1.45 hours to fully recharge your
mobile phone.
• When all 4 bars are steady the battery is fully
charged, you can disconnect the charger.
Depending on the network and condition of use,
talk time can be up to 6 hrs and stand-by time up
to 300 hrs.
Keeping the charger plugged to the mobile when the
battery is fully charged doesn’t damage the battery. The
only way to turn off the charger is to unplug it, so use
an easily accessible AC power socket. You can connect
the charger to an IT supply (Belgium only).
3. If you don’t intend to use your phone for several
days, we recommend you disconnect the battery.
You can use the phone while it is on charge (note that
the vibra alert goes Off when plugging the charger). If
the battery is completely flat, the battery icon will only
reappear after 2 or 3 minutes of charging.
