2. Getting Connected
You’ll need to charge your battery once your phone has
been activated. 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
1.
button at the top of
the battery.
Slide the battery

toward the bottom of
the phone.
Lift the battery off

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 73.
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 76.
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.

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

Your phone has two soft keys
located below the display. The
