Using the Internal Charger

Your phone has a built-in battery charger. Using
either the AC or cigarette lighter adapter, you can
plug the handset directly into a power source to
charge any attached battery.
To charge:
1. Plug the AC adapter or vehicle power
adapter into the accessory connector on the
bottom of your phone as shown, with the
release tab facing up.
2. Plug the power adapter into a 110V AC
electrical outlet.
or
Plug the vehicle power adapter into the
cigarette lighter opening in the vehicle.
In both cases, a beep-tone sounds, and the
battery icon flashes.
See “Charge Times” on page 26 for charge times.
