Important Information About the Battery
If the battery has not been used for a long time, you may need to charge the battery for
a few minutes before you can power on your mobile phone.
The battery’s performance will degrade over time. When the battery life becomes
noticeably shorter than normal after being charged properly, replace the battery with a
new one of the same type.
Using data services increases the power consumption of the phone and will therefore
reduce the length of time that the phone can be used between battery charges.
The time required to fully charge the battery depends on the ambient temperature and
the age of the battery.

the battery power is almost exhausted, your phone will power off automatically.
