Using this Owner’s Manual
The cellular phone descr ibed in this manual is approved for
use in AMPS/TDMA networks.
A number of features included in this guide are called
Network Services. They ar e s pecial services provi de d by
cellular service providers. Before you can take advantage

2. The Battery
Your phone is powered by a rech argeable battery. Use
only batteries approved by the phone manufacturer and
recharge your battery on ly w ith th e c harge rs ap prov ed by
the manufacturer.
New batteries must be charged with
the phone off for at least 24 hours
before initial use. A new battery’s
full performance is achieved only
after two or three complete charge
and discharge cycles!
Note: This chapter gives only the basi cs for battery usage.
See “Accesso r i es ” o n page 48 for more in fo r mation on
chargers and other acce sso r ies.

Charging a battery with Rapid Travel
Charger (ACH-4U)
1) Connect the lead from
the charger to the bottom of the phone.
2) Connect the charger to
a standard 120V AC
outlet.
When the battery is charging, the battery
indicator on the right side of the displ ay sc rolls.
Allow the battery to completely charge.
Charging is finished when the segments stop
scrolling.
The charging times depend on the type of the
battery and the charger used.
See “Accesso r i es ” o n page 48 for detai ls .
When charging is finished, disconnect the charger from
the AC outle t a nd from the phon e. W h en you discon nect
the power cord of any accessory, grasp and pull the plug,
not the cord.
Discharging the battery
Either leave your phone switched on until it turns itse lf off
or use the battery discharge facility of any approved
4
accessory available for your phone. The battery can be
charged and discharged hundreds of times but it will
eventually wear out. When the operating time is noticeably
shorter than normal, it is time to buy a new battery.
Battery Charge
The phone gives you a warning tone
and the messag e BATTERY LOW when
only a couple of minutes of talk time remain. When no more battery power
remains, you get a Recharge Battery
Tone and the message RECHARGE
BATTERY. The phone switch es itself off.
Connect your phone directly to a charg er or place it on a
charging stand with the power on or off to begin charging.
Note: In some vehicles, the ignition must be on in order to
charge the phone with the cigarette lighter adapter.
If the message NOT CHARGING is displayed, charging is
suspended. Check that the battery is not ove rheated (over
104°F/40°C), too cold, or connected to a non-approved
charging device. Wait for a while, connect the charger to
the phone aga in an d retry. If chargin g st il l f ai ls , co nt act
qualified service personnel.
Important Battery Information
For good operation times, discharge the battery from time
to time by leaving y ou r ph one switched on un t il it tu r n s
itself off or by using the battery discharge facility of any
approved accessory available for your phone. Do not
attempt to discharge the battery by any other means.
• When a charger is not in use, disconnect it from the
power source. Do not leave the battery connected to
a charger for longer than a week; overcha r g in g may
shorten its life.
• If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge
itself in about a week at room temperature.
• When the battery is not in use, st o re it uncharged in a
cool, dark and dry place.

• Temperatur e e xtr e mes affect the abil it y of yo ur batt ery
to charge: it may require cooling or warming first.
• Do not short circuit the battery. Accidental short circuiting can occ ur wh e n a m et al lic o b je ct (e. g . co i n,
clip, or pen) causes direct connection of the + and terminals of the battery (metal strips on the back of
the battery), for example when you carry a spare battery in your pocket or purse. Short circui ting the terminal may damage the battery or the connecting object.
• Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
• Never use any charger or batte r y that is damaged or
worn out.
• Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a
closed car in summer or winter conditions, reduces
the capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try to
keep the battery between 59°F and 77°F (15°C and
25°C). A phone with a hot or cold battery may temporarily not work, even if the battery is fully charged.
NiMH battery performance is particular ly lim it ed in
tempera tures be low 14°F (-10°C).
• The batte r y is a sealed unit with no serviceab le p ar t s .
Do not attempt to open the case.
• Do not dispose of a battery in a fire! Dispose of used
batteries in accordance with local regulations.
Recycle!
