2. Battery installation and charging
Before you can use your new phone, you need to attach and
charge the battery.
Attaching the battery
To attach the battery, place it
on the back of the phone as
shown and slide it toward the
top of the phone until it clicks
into place.
Battery charging
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable NiMH or Li-Ion
battery. Note that a new NiMH battery’s full performance
is achieved only after two or three complete charge and
discharge cycles. For charging times, see ‘Charging times’ on
page 68.
How to charge your battery
Connect the lead from the charger to the bottom of your
phone or to a charging stand. Then plug the charger into a
standard wall outlet.
When the battery is charging, the battery strength indicator
on the right side of the display scrolls.
Note: When you charge the battery for the first time, the
battery strength indicator will not scroll the entire time; this
is normal.
Problems charging
If your phone displays
Check that the battery is connected to an approved charging
device. If the battery is very hot or cold, wait for a while;
charging will automatically resume after the battery is

restored to its normal operating state. If charging still fails,
contact your dealer.
When is charging complete?
When the charge indicators stop scrolling, your
phone is considered fully charged. However, a
slight increase in charge may occur if you leave
your phone connected to the charger.
When is a good time to charge?
You can charge anytime, but remember that when your
phone displays
minutes of talk time left.
Battery low
, you only have a couple of
Can I make calls while charging?
Yes, but depending on the charger used, your battery may
not charge during a call.
Discharging NiMH batteries
For good operation times, discharge NiMH batteries from
time to time by leaving your phone switched on until it
turns 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.
Removing the battery
Note: Switch off the phone before removing the battery!
Press and hold the
1
button at the top of the
battery.
Slide the battery

toward the bottom of
the phone.
Lift the battery off the

Important battery information
• Note that a new battery’s full performance is achieved only after
two or three complete charge and discharge cycles!
• The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times
but it will eventually wear out. When the operating time (talk
time and standby time) is noticeably shorter than normal, it is
time to buy a new battery.
• Use only batteries approved by the phone manufacturer and
recharge your battery only with the chargers approved by the
manufacturer.
• 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, since overcharging may shorten its life. If left unused a
fully charged battery will discharge itself over time.
• (NiMH batteries only) For good operation times, discharge the
battery from time to time by leaving your phone switched on
until it turns 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.
• Temperature extremes will affect the ability of your battery to
charge: allow it to cool down or warm up first.
• Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
• Never use any charger or battery which is damaged or worn out.
• Do not short circuit the battery. Accidental short circuiting can
occur when a metallic object (coin, 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 circuiting the terminals
may damage the battery or the connecting object.
• Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a closed car
in summer or winter conditions, will reduce the capacity and
lifetime of the battery. Always try to keep the battery between
59º F and 77º F (15º C and 25º C). A phone with a hot or cold
battery may temporarily not work, even when the battery is fully
charged. NiMH batteries’ performance is particularly limited in
temperatures below 14º F (-10º C). Li-Ion batteries’ performance
is particularly limited in temperatures below 32º F (0º C).
• Do not dispose of batteries in a fire!
• Dispose of used batteries in accordance with any local regulations.

About the antenna
Your Nokia phone has a fixed-length antenna. Do not attempt
to extend or remove it.
Normal position
Hold the phone as you would any other telephone, with the
antenna pointed up and over your shoulder.
Tips on efficient operation
As with any other radio transmitting device, do not touch the
antenna unnecessarily when the phone is switched on. Contact
with the antenna affects call quality and may cause the phone
to operate at a higher power level than otherwise needed.
Checking signal strength
Your phone operates on radio waves. Radio signal coverage is
maintained by a wireless network, and the quality of calls on
your phone depends on the strength of the wireless radio signal.
Get a strong signal
When you are at the start screen (see page 7) or in
a call, the strength of the radio signal is indicated
by the signal indicators on the left side of your
phone’s display. These indicators scroll as the
signal strength increases and decreases.
