Using the battery.Your Phone comes with a partially charged,recharge-
able Lithium Ion (Li-ion) Battery so that you can use
your phone immediately after it is activated.
Installing the battery.
To attach the battery to your Phone:
1. Hold the battery so that the metal contacts on
the base of the battery line up with the metal
contacts on the base of the phone.
2. Place the battery on the back of the phone with
the top of the battery about a quarter of an inch
from the latch.
3. Gently slide the battery toward the top of the
phone until it snaps into place.
Charging the battery.
You can tell whether or not your battery needs to be
recharged by checking the upper-right corner of
your phone’s display.
When the battery charge level gets low,the battery
sensor will let you know by blinking the battery
icon,sounding a tone and displaying a message. If the
battery level gets too low,the phone will turn off
automatically.Unfortunately,if this happens you’ll
lose whatever you were just doing,including drop-
ping your call.Watch the battery strength icon and
make sure your battery is adequately charged.
Display indicators.Display indicators appear across the top of your
phone’s display screen.These display indicators (or
icons) will vary based your phone’s operating mode.

current signal strength.More lines indicate
more signal strength.Four lines indicate maxi-
mum strength,and one line indicates least
strength.
Service indicator: This icon indicates a call
is in progress.
No service indicator: This icon indicates
your phone cannot find a signal because
you’re outside a service area.When this is dis-
played,you cannot make or receive calls.Wait
a little while for a signal or move into an open
area.
Roaming: Appears when you are out of your
home area and have registered with a different
network.

have message(s) waiting.Press OK to see the

nected to Voicemail.

where you don’t want your ringer to disturb
others.

of your battery charge.The more black bars
you see,the greater the charge.When the ba-
ttery becomes very low,an empty box appears
and the phone flashes an alert.
