Removing the battery

Low battery warning

When the battery power falls to its lowest level, Low Battery! will display and a low battery warning tone will sound. If you are on a call, end it then press and hold to turn Off the phone. Recharge the battery as shown below or replace it with a charged one.
Do not turn Off the phone by removing the battery. Data that needs to be saved by the SIM may be lost.

Charging the battery

To extend the battery’s life, recharge it only when the Low Battery! warning is displayed and the 'low battery' tone is heard.
Remove the cover from the bottom of the phone and connect the AC adapter to the phone as shown. The clip inserts into the phone only one way, so if it doesn’t fit, turn the clip over and insert again.

Plug the AC adapter into a wall socket. The battery will start to charge. If the phone is used while charging, it will increase the charging time. To release the AC adapter from the phone, push the buttons on both sides of the clip and pull it away from the phone.

Charging indicators when the phone is Off

Charging... message displays. The LED light will be red. When charging is completed, Battery full displays and the LED light will change to green.

Charging indicators when the phone is On

During charging the battery icon will flash 1-2-3 bars continuously. When charging is completed the battery indicator will show three solid bars. If a call is received during charging the LED light will rapidly flash green. It is normal for the battery to get warm during charging.

Typical charging times using the AC adapter

Battery use and safety information

When the operating time (standby and talk time) is noticeably shorter than normal it is time to buy a new one.

  • Do not leave batteries connected to a charger longer than necessary, overcharging will shorten battery life.
  • Disconnect battery chargers from the power source when not in use.
  • Do not expose batteries to high temperatures or humidity.
  • Do not discard the batteries into a fire. They may explode.
  • Avoid putting the batteries into contact with metal objects which may short circuit the battery terminals (e.g. keys, paper clips, coins, chains etc).
  • Do not drop or subject the batteries to strong physical shocks.
  • Do not dispose of old batteries together with household waste. Old batteries must be returned to place of purchase or a battery recycling center.

Extending the antenna

Your phone’s antenna locks when it is extended fully. To lock the antenna, pull it up until you hear a click.

For best results use the antenna fully extended when making or receiving calls.

Retracting the antenna

To unlock the antenna, hold it near the base and push gently until it releases. Then slide the antenna down.

If pressed from the top, the antenna may bend and not slide back into the body of the phone.
