Charging the Battery

New batteries are shipped partially charged. Before you can use your phone, you need to install and charge the battery as described below. Some batteries perform best after several full charge/ discharge cycles.

Battery Use

Battery performance depends on many factors, including network configuration; signal strength; the temperature at which you operate your phone; the features and/or settings you select and use; items attached to the phone’s accessory connector port; and your voice, data, and other application usage patterns.

Caution: To prevent injuries or burns, do not allow metal objects to contact or short-circuit the battery terminals.
