2. Getting Connected
This section will help you understand the ins and outs of
charging and using 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.
Charging your new battery
Your phone can b e used with eit her a r echargeabl e Li-Io n
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 powered
on or off, connect the lead
from the charger to the
bottom of your phone.
You can also place your
phone on the charging
stand (with the stand
connected to a standard
120V AC outlet via either the ACP-7U or ACP-9U AC/DC
adaptors).
When the battery begins charging, your phone will beep
once and the battery strength indicator on the right side
of the display will begin to scroll after a few seconds.
3
If your phone displays
Check that the battery is connected only 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 temperature. If charging
still fails, contact your service provider or retailer.
When a charger is not in use, disconnect it from the power
source. Do not leave th e battery connect ed to a charger for
longer than a week, since ov ercharging may shorten its lif e.

, charging is suspended.
When is a good time to charge?
Actually, you can charge 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
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 page71.
Once all the power has drained from your battery, you’ll
hear three beeps wi th the m essage
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 couple more
hours. This is called “trickle charge” or
“maintenance charge.” If your phone is powered
off the display will clear when charging is complete.
4
Charging times depend on the type of battery and
charger used.
For approximate charging and operating times, see “Batteries” on
page72.
Can you make calls while charging?
Yes, you can. But your battery may not charge while a call
is in progress (depending on which charger you are
using). Charging should resume once you end the call.
See "Chargers and Other Accessories" on page 74 for more
information.
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.
Removing the battery
Note: Switch off the phone before removing the
battery!
1.
Press and hold the
button at the top
of the battery.
2.
Slide the battery
toward the bottom of the phone.
3.
Lift the battery off
the phone.

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 optimal operation, discharge the
battery from time to time by leaving your phone switch ed
on until it turns itself off. You can also use the battery
discharge feature 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.

Cool Features
Did you know that you can lock the keys on your phone
to prevent accidental key presses and phone calls? Or
that you can call someone with the touch of a single
button? You can also stop your phone from ringing
without even answering the call.
These are just some of the many Cool Features you’ll find
in your phone. Look for the icon throughout this
owner’s manual to find them.

3. 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.
What is the ‘start screen’?
The start screen appears when you first turn your phone
on, in its idle state.
Anytime you want to get to the start screen, press ,
except during a call (unless you want to hang up).
CAUTION:
requesting input (for example, a setting, phone number,
name, etc.), the phone displays the start screen, the input
is not saved, and the option is not selected.
Navigating tools
Softkeys
Your phone has two softkeys that
appear below the display. Their
current function is indicated by the
words appearing above them.
Simply press the corresponding key
under the choice you wish to select.
