Charging the battery

You must have at least a partial charge in the battery to make or receive calls. Fully charge the

battery before using the phone.

To charge the battery, connect the AC adapter to the

jack on the bottom of the phone, then plug the adapter into a wall outlet.

The battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen tells you whether the phone is:

•Charging (the icon is animated)

•Partially charged

•Fully charged

Recharging the battery

You can safely recharge the battery at any time, even if it has a partial charge.
