Important Information About the Battery
If the battery has not been used for a long time, you may not be able to power on your
mobile phone immediately after you begin charging the battery. Allow the battery to
charge for a few minutes with the phone powered off before attempting to power the
phone on.
As it ages, the battery’s performance will degrade, in particular, it will not hold charge as
it did when it was new. When the battery life becomes noticeably shorter than usual
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.
When the battery power is low, the phone will alert you and display a message. When
the battery power is almost exhausted, your phone will power off automatically.
