Depending on the network and condition of use,
talk time goes from 2 to 4 hrs and stand-by time
from 200 to 400 hrs.
Keeping the charger plugged to the mobile when the
battery is fully charged doesn’t damage the battery.
The only way to turn off the charger is to unplug it, so
use an easily accessible AC power socket. You can
connect the charger to an IT supply (Belgium only).
If you don’t intend to use your phone for several

days, we recommend you disconnect the battery.
You can use the phone while it is on charge (note that
the vibra alert goes Off when plugging the charger). If
the battery is completely flat, the battery icon will only
reappear after 2 or 3 minutes of charging.
