2. Getting Connected

You’re battery should be charged before you activate your new phone. This section will help familiarize you on how, and when, to charge your battery.

Attaching your battery

Simply place the battery in the grooves on the back of your phone. Then slide the battery upward until it clicks.

Note: Use only those batteries approved by the phone manufacturer and recharge your battery only with the chargers approved by the manufacturer.

See “Important Battery Information” on page 6.

Removing the battery

Note: Switch off the phone before removing the battery!

Press and hold the

button at the top of the battery.

Slide the battery

toward the bottom of the phone.

Lift the battery off

the phone.

Charging your new battery

Your phone can be used with either a rechargeable Li-Ion or NiMH battery. Note that a new battery’s full performance is achieved only after two or three complete charge and discharge cycles.

With your phone on or off, connect the charger to a standard 120V AC outlet. Then connect the lead from the charger to the bottom of your phone or place it on a charging stand.

When the battery begins charging, your phone will beep once and the battery strength indicator on the right side of the display will scroll.

Note: If the battery is totally empty, it may take a few minutes before the charging indication appears on the display.

If your phone displays

Not charging

, charging is suspended. Check that the battery is not connected to a non-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 a good time to charge?

You can charge your battery anytime. If you have a NiMH battery, you should allow it to completely discharge once in a while.

When your phone beeps once and displays

Battery low

you only have a couple of minutes of talk time remaining. The repetition rate of these battery-low warnings depend on the remaining battery capacity and the battery condition. These warnings are more frequent when you’re in a call.

Note: The phone will not give you the warning tone under certain conditions. See “Warning and game tones” on page 72.

Once all the power has drained from your battery, you’ll hear three beeps with the message

Recharge battery

your display. At this point, your phone will switch itself off and you’ll need to recharge your battery.

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 your phone is left connected to the charger for a while. This is called “trickle charge.”

Charging times depend on the type of battery and charger used.

For approximate charging and operating times, see “Standby and Talk Times” on page 74.

Can you make calls while charging?

Yes, you can. But your battery may not charge while a call is in progress. Charging should resume once you end the call.

Discharging NiMH batteries

A NiMH battery lasts longer and performs better if you fully discharge it from time to time. To discharge the battery, leave your phone switched on until the battery is drained. The phone will display several messages that the battery is low and that you need to recharge it; just ignore them. Do not attempt to discharge the battery by any other means.

Important Battery Information

• 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.

3. The Basics

You have purchased a powerful phone, with lots of features. Read this section for some very basic information on how to use your phone.

A more comprehensive description of your phone is covered in “Features A to Z” starting on page 16.

highlighted) then press OK.

Note: This method is available in all profiles except

Car

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.

WARNING! Do not switch on the phone when wireless phone use is prohibited or when it may cause interference or danger.

See “Safety At A Glance” on page 1 for more information.

Get a good signal

Your phone operates on radio waves, and the quality of radio reception depends entirely on the strength of the radio signal in your area.

This radio coverage is maintained by a wireless network and the quality of calls on a wireless phone depends on the strength of the wireless radio signal.

Checking signal strength

When you are at the start screen or in a call, the signal strength is indicated by the indicators on the left side of your phone’s display. These indicators scroll as the strength of the signal increases and decreases.

Increasing your phone’s signal may be easy. Try moving your phone slightly, or move towards a window if you’re calling from inside a building.

4. Using Your Phone

The first few days you have your phone, play with it to learn how the menu and submenu system works. The more you learn how to access these menus and submenus, the more fun you’ll have with your phone.

This section describes the different methods of using your phone menus and submenus.

The display

Soft keys

Your phone has two soft keys located below the display. The current function is indicated by the texts appearing directly above them. Press the corresponding key under the choice you wish to select.

phone’s menus and submenus, as well as through your phone book.

. The start

Names

Scroll bar

When you access your phone’s menu and submenus, you will notice a scroll bar at the far right of the screen. This bar indicates your location in the menu structure; each “tab” on the bar represents a different menu item.

For example, press

once. The scroll bar appears

with the first (top) tab displayed. A different tab appears each time you press the

or V key to move up and

down through the menu structure. The scroll bar works the same way with submenus.

Menu & submenu numbering

When you scroll to a menu or submenu, the menu number and/or submenu number appears on the display above the scroll bar.

For example, when you scroll to menu 2 (

The start screen appears when you first turn your phone on, in its idle state.

When you want to get to the start screen, press any time except during a call (unless you want to hang up).
