Charging your new battery

Your phone can be used with either a rechargeable Li-Ion or NiMH battery. Note that a new battery’s full performance is achieved only after two or three complete charge and discharge cycles.

With your phone on or off, connect the charger to a standard 120V AC outlet. Then connect the lead from the charger to the bottom of your phone or place it on a charging stand.

When the battery begins charging, your phone will beep once and the battery strength indicator on the right side of the display will scroll.

Note: If the battery is totally empty, it may take a few minutes before the charging indication appears on the display.

If your phone displays Not charging, charging is suspended. Check that the battery is not connected to a non-approved charging device. If the battery is very hot or cold, wait for a while; charging will automatically resume after the battery is restored to its normal operating state. If charging still fails, contact your dealer.

When is a good time to charge?

You can charge your battery anytime. If you have a NiMH battery, you should allow it to completely discharge once in a while.

When your phone beeps once and displays Battery low, you only have a couple of minutes of talk time remaining. The repetition rate of these battery-low warnings depend on the remaining battery capacity and the battery con- dition. These warnings are more frequent when you’re in a call.

Note: The phone will not give you the warning tone under certain conditions. See “Warning and game tones” on page 72.

Once all the power has drained from your battery, you’ll hear three beeps with the message Recharge battery on your display. At this point, your phone will switch itself off and you’ll need to recharge your battery.
