Getting Started with Your Phone

The Battery

NOTE It is important to fully charge the battery before initial use of the phone.

The phone comes with a rechargeable battery. Keep the battery charged while not in use in order to maximize talk and standby time. The battery charge level is shown at the top of the LCD screen.

Installing the Battery

To install the battery, insert the bottom of the battery into the opening on the back of the phone. Push the battery down until the latch clicks.

Removing the Battery

Turn the power off. Pull the release latch up, hold both ends of the battery and remove it.

Charging the Battery

To use the charger provided with your phone:

Warning! Use only the charger provided with the phone. Using any charger other than the one included with The V may damage your phone or battery.

1.Plug the end of the AC adapter into the phone’s charger jack and the other end into an electrical outlet.

2.The charge time varies depending upon the battery level. The maximum charge time for a fully discharged standard battery is 5 hours.

Battery Charge Level

The battery charge level is shown at the top right of the LCD screen. When the battery charge level becomes low, the low battery sensor alerts you in three ways: sounding an audible tone, blinking the battery icon, and displaying LOW BATTERY WARNING! If the battery charge level becomes exceedingly low, the phone automatically switches off and any function in progress is not saved.
