Battery

Your Nokia 9000il Communicator is powered by a rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery. The Extended Li-Ion Battery provides up to three hours of talk/ fax/terminal time or up to 30 hours of standby time. Use only batteries approved by the com- municator manufacturer.

Charging the battery

Use only those chargers approved by the commu- nicator manufacturer for charging a Lithium-Ion battery. The communicator can be used during charging. To charge a battery with the adapter and a charger:

•Insert the battery.

‚Attach the adapter to the bottom of the com- municator as shown in Figure 2-7. Insert the curved pin into the right-hand side aperture at the end of the communicator. Push the left side of the adapter gently towards the com- municator until the left locking pin engages. (If you try to force the adapter into place up- side down, you may accidentally break off the curved guiding pin.)

Figure 2-7: Attaching the adapter

ƒConnect the charger lead to the adapter, as shown in Figure 2-8.

Note: You must have the adapter in order to charge the unit.

Figure 2-8: Charger lead

„Connect the charger to an 120 V AC wall out- let. If the phone interface is switched on, the CHARGING message appears on the display and segments of the battery indicator bar on the right-hand side of the phone interface dis- play will start scrolling. (Charging information is also shown on the communicator interface display, see ”Indicators” on page 2-10.)

…When the battery is fully charged, the battery indicator bar will stop scrolling and display five solid bars. You may remove the adapter from the communicator:

†Hold down the release button on the left side of the adapter (Figure 2-7), and turn the adapter away from the communicator.

When the charge is low and only a few minutes of operation time remain, a warning tone will be heard, and the message BATTERY LOW will be re- peated at regular intervals on the display. When the charge level becomes too low for operation, the RECHARGE BATTERY message will be dis- played, accompanied by a warning tone. If you do not connect the communicator to a charger, the communicator automatically switches itself off. If the tones have been switched off, only the display messages will appear (see Chapter 13 "Phone interface: Detailed menus list - All sounds (Menu 10)" on page 13-15).
