The battery symbol indicates the state of charge:

- during charging, the 3 charge indicators scroll;
it takes around 2.5 hours to fully recharge your
mobile phone.

- when all 3 bars are steady the battery is fully
charged: disconnect the charger. Depending
on the network and condition of use, talk time
goes from n to 2.5 hrs and stand-by time from

use an easily accessible AC power socket. You can
connect the charger to an IT supply (Belgium only).
