Note: 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 the battery only with the chargers
approved by the manufacturer. Unplug the charger when not in use. Do not leave the battery connected to
a charger for longer than a week, since overcharging may shorten its lifetime. If left unused a fully charged
battery will discharge itself over time.
Temperature extremes can affect the ability of your battery to charge.
For good operation times with Li-Ion batteries, discharge the battery from time to time by leaving the product
switched on until it turns itself off (or by using the battery discharge facility of any approved accessory
available for the product). Do not attempt to discharge the battery by any other means.
Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
Never use any charger or battery which is damaged.
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 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 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°
F). A phone with a hot or cold battery may temporarily not work, even when the battery is fully charged.
Batteries' performance is particularly limited in temperatures well below freezing.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire!
Dispose of batteries according to local regulations (e.g. recycling). Do not dispose as household waste.

Keyboard and side keys troubleshooting
Context
There are two possible failure modes in the keyboard module:
•
One or more keys are stuck, so that the key does not react when a keydome or a side key is pressed. This
kind of failure is caused by mechanical reasons (dirt, rust, mechanical damage, etc.)
•
Malfunction of several keys at the same time. This happens when one or more rows or columns in the key
matrix are failing (shortcut or open connection).
If the failure mode is not clear, start with the Keyboard test in Phoenix.
In this phone the keyboard is connected to D2800 I/O pins.

Introduction to display and keyboard backlight troubleshooting
Display and keyboard lights are handled by Gazoo (EM ASIC) internal LED drive. It has one output pin, but two
independent LED branches (display and keyboard) which can have different number of LEDs (2 to 4). Keyboard
and display branch of LED network can be enabled and disabled independently from Gazoo LedCR register or
using Phoenix display test program. Display LEDs are located inside the display and keyboard LEDs are on the
PWB.
Ambient Light Sensor troubleshooting and re-calibration
Introduction to ALS troubleshooting and re-calibration
The Ambient Light Sensor (ALS) consists of the following components:
•
Ambient Light Sensor (N1100). ALS is a digital I2C interface component that has two channels with different
spectral sensitivities. When combined, the component responds to illuminance similar as human eye.
•
Vdd filtering capacitor (C1100)
The ALS components are located at the top side of the main PWB as illustrated in the figure below.
Figure 16 ALS components
ALS information is used to control the keypad and display brightness of the phone. The keyboard backlight
is turned OFF, when it is not needed. Display brightness is dimmed, when environment lighting is dark. ALS
is calibrated in production and can be re-tuned in service points though not recommended unless calibration
coefficient is lost for some reason.
Note: ALS calibration is also required for Light SWAP Engines, because ALS is not factory calibrated
for Light SWAP.
When executing the ALS calibration, a reference phone that includes calibrated ALS is required. The ALS retuning instructions show why the reference phone is needed.
Note: Make sure that you have completed the display and keyboard backlights troubleshooting
before starting the ALS troubleshooting.
There is an Ambient Light Sensor window in the Phoenix Display Test tool, which shows the luminance value.
The correct luminance in darkness is <20 lx, and in an office environment 100-2000 lx.
Note: The luminance value depends heavily on the light source and the angle of the phone against
the light source, so the values above can only be used as a rough guideline. Phoenix has an ambient
light sensor calibration tool for changing the calibration values.

3. Choose Testing→Display test.
4. Open the Lights tab, and check the Ambient light sensor check box. Click the Read button in order to get
the reference ambient light value. Cover the sensor and click Read again. When covered, the luminance
reading should be less than after clicking Read without covering the sensor.
5. If the component does not give any reading or the reading does not change when sensor is/is not covered,
replace the part.
Note: The ALS calibration procedure requires a reference phone with a calibrated ALS.
