Battery charging
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable NiMH or Li-Ion
battery. Note that a new NiMH battery’s full performance is
achieved only after two or three complete charge and
discharge cycles.
How to charge your battery
Connect the lead from the charger to the bottom of your
phone or to a charging stand. Then plug the charger into a
standard 120V AC outlet.
When the battery is charging, the battery strength indicator
(on the right side of the display) scrolls.
Note: When you charge the battery for the first time, the
battery strength indicator does not scroll the entire time; this
is normal.
Problems charging
If your phone displays Not charging, charging is suspended.
Check that the battery is connected to an approved charging
device. If the battery is very hot or cold, wait for a while;
charging will automatically resume after the battery is
restored to its normal operating state. If charging still fails,
contact your dealer.

When is charging complete?
When the charge indicators stop scrolling, your
phone is considered fully charged. However, a
slight increase in charge may occur if you leave
your phone connected to the charger.
When is a good time to charge?
You can charge anytime, but remember that when your
phone displays Battery low, you only have a couple of
minutes of talk time left.
Can I make calls while charging?
Yes, but your battery may not charge during a call. Charging
should resume once you end the call.
Discharging NiMH batteries
For good operation times, discharge NiMH batteries from
time to time by leaving your phone switched on until it
turns itself off (or by using the battery discharge facility of
any approved accessory available for your phone). Do not
attempt to discharge the battery by any other means.
