INITIALIZING THE DEVICE

When you start using the device for the first time, you should
charge the battery first. Please note that the battery will reach
its full capacity only after two or three charging times.

POWER SUPPLY

•Mains charger with the charger adapter or charging cradle

•Standard Li-Ion battery integrated to the unit is 2600mAh Li-ion
polymer battery. The battery type and capacity may vary
depending on the market area and model of the unit in the sales
package.

MAINS CHARGER

The mains charger
should only be used
indoors. Make sure that
the voltage in the
country which you are
staying corresponds to
the voltage marked on the charger. When charging, connect the
mini USB connector to mini USB connector in charging adapter.

Twist the Charging adapter to the bottom of the phone from
keyboardside down, all the way until it clicks on its place on back
cover.

CHARGING

The device controls the charging status, the battery temperature and
power supply during the charging operation. The ideal temperature
range for charging is +10°...+30°C. If charging the battery above or
below these temperatures the life of a battery may be shortened. Also,
the battery may not reach full capacity. Battery charging is not allowed
below +0°C or above +50°C

When charging the Li-po batteries with the USB charger, about 70% of
the battery capacity will be charged quickly, but charging the remaining
30% takes relatively more time. Also note that humidity, temperature,
age of the battery and currently used features (e.g. the GPS) affect the
time spent on charging.

Standard CE-approved USB car charger (5VDC, 500mA) may be used
for charging.

BATTERY CARE, MAINTENANCE AND DISPOSAL

The continuous operating time is less when using an old battery than a
new battery. When storing unit for a long time, it should be kept cool
and with fully charged battery in a dry place. Li-po batteries do not
contain heavy metals which can damage the environment. Li-po
batteries should be disposed of according to the country-specific
regulations.

ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS IN USAGE

SIGHT

The device must have an unobstructed view to satellites at any time. In
marginal conditions (e.g. when staying in surroundings with heavy tree
cover or in a shadow area in between base stations) GPS positioning
may not work properly.

The device can be used like a standard GSM phone with the limited
feature set. In some cases, the device can be built in clothes or special
vests. If the device is mounted somehow, it must be attached to the
surface so that the back of the device is facing up and the top of the
phone upwards. To ensure proper functioning of the GPS and GSM,
the unit can be covered with thin low loss material such as plastic, fiber
glass or clothes, but not with metal.

TEMPERATURE RANGES

•Usage: -20°C to +55°C, at temperatures below -20°C , or above
+55°C, the battery will not supply power and the de vice will shut down
to prevent damage. Upon warming up/cooling down, the device will
function properly again

•Charging: Battery must not be charged below °0. Li kewise, charging
above +50 °C is prevented.
