Charge your phone with a USB charger

Your battery has been partially charged at the factory, but you may need to recharge it before you can switch the phone on for the first time.

Make sure you use a compatible USB charger to charge your phone. The charger may be sold separately.

1. Plug a compatible charger into a wall outlet, and connect the cable to your phone.

2. When the battery is full, disconnect the charger from the phone, then from the wall outlet.

You don't need to charge the battery for a specific length of time, and you can use the phone while it's charging.

If the battery is completely discharged, it may take several minutes before the charging indicator is displayed.

Tip: You can use USB charging when a wall outlet is not available. Data can be transferred while charging the device. The efficiency of USB charging power varies significantly, and it may take a long time for charging to start and the device to start functioning.

Make sure your computer is switched on.

First connect the USB cable to the computer, then to your phone. When the battery is full, first disconnect the USB cable from your phone, then from the computer.

The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times, but it will eventually wear out. When the talk and standby times are noticeably shorter than normal, replace the battery. To replace a non-removable battery, take the device to the nearest authorised service facility.

Charge your phone wirelessly

No need to connect to a charger every time you need to charge your phone – charge wirelessly instead. Just place your phone on a wireless charger, and it immediately starts charging.

Wireless charging is not supported by all phones. For availability, go to www.microsoft.com/ mobile/support/wpfeatures.

You may need a wireless charging cover for wireless charging to work. The cover may be included in the sales box, or it may be sold separately. Only use original Lumia wireless charging covers designed for your phone.

Wireless chargers are sold separately.

The charging areas on the phone and the charger need to touch, so make sure you align the phone and charger properly. Not all phone models fit in all chargers.

Use only wireless chargers compatible with your device.

1. Make sure the wireless charger is plugged in.

2. If your phone needs a wireless charging cover, make sure it’s properly attached to your

phone.

3. Place your phone on the wireless charger so that the charging areas touch.

4. When the battery is full, remove your phone from the charger.

Warning: Make sure there’s nothing between the charger and the device. Do not attach

any objects, such as stickers, on the device surface near the charging area.

For more info on wireless charging, see the user guide of your charger.

Create your Microsoft account

Get the most out of your phone by creating a Microsoft account. If you didn’t create a Microsoft account during the first start-up, you can always do it later.

If you already have an Xbox Live, Hotmail.com, or Outlook.com account, or if you have created a Microsoft account on your Surface tablet or Windows PC, you don’t have to create a new one – just sign in with the username and password for that account. If you don’t have a Microsoft account yet, you can create one with your phone.

1. Swipe down from the top of the screen, and tap All settings > Accounts > Your email and accounts.

2. Tap Sign in with a Microsoft account instead > Create one.

3. Fill in your account details.

Make sure you remember the credentials for the Microsoft account you added to your phone.

4. Type in your phone number or an alternative mail address. They are used to send you a one-time verification code and to protect your data.

5. Select how you want to get your one-time verification code.

The verification code is required to confirm your identity. Your account and personal info are safe even if someone else finds your password because they don’t have access to the other device or mail address you use to receive the verification code.

6. When asked, type in your mail address or the last 4 digits of your phone number.

7. When you receive the code, type it in, and you are ready to back up your data and use your

phone.

Tip: When you receive the code in a message, your phone shows the message notification for a while. To open the message, tap the notification. If the notification is not visible anymore, swipe down from the top of the screen to see it in the action centre, and tap it. To get back to the view where you can add the code, tap and hold the back key , and tap the correct view.

The Microsoft account that you create on your phone is your account on all your Microsoft devices and services.

You can also create or manage your account at account.microsoft.com.
