About your phone
4 Press down slightly and slide the
cover until it locks into place.
• CHARGE THE BATTERY
Before you begin, you need to prepare your phone
by charging the battery.
1
Plug the charger into a standard wall outlet;
then connect the lead from the charger to the
bottom of the phone.
The battery power indicator (or battery bar) appears on the screen and starts
scrolling.
If the phone is on, Charging appears also.
When the battery bar stops scrolling, the battery charge is complete. Battery
full appears also, if the phone is on.
2 Disconnect the charger from the phone.
• IMPORTANT BATTERY INFORMATION
Use the following guidelines to obtain the best performance from your battery:
•
With your phone turned off, charge your new battery for three hours before
its first use. Use the battery until it is fully discharged. Repeat this procedure
twice for a total of three charging cycles.
• Battery operation time may be less than the estimated times during the first
charges. This condition is normal.
• If the battery is fully discharged, the scrolling bars may not appear immediately
when charging.
• After the first charge, you can make and receive calls during the charging
cycle, but the calls interrupt the charge. When the phone call ends, the charge
will resume.
• The bars on the screen stop scrolling and remain constant when the phone is
charged. If you leave the phone connected to the charger, the battery receives
an additional charge.
Note: The battery will accept a “trickle charge” for an additional two hours.
See “Reference information” on page 48 for more information on batteries.
• Charging time depends on the charger and battery used. See “Batteries” on
page 55 for charging, talk, and standby times.
