Low Battery Indicator
You can easily tell if your battery needs to be
recharged by checking the Battery Status icon ( ) at
the upper-right corner of your phone’s display. The
presence of all three bars indicates a full charge, two
bars indicates a smaller charge, and one bar indicates
an even smaller charge.
When the battery charge level gets low, the battery
sensor blinks an empty Battery Status icon ( ) and
sounds a warning tone. If the battery level gets too
low, the phone automatically turns off. When this
happens, you lose whatever you are doing and your
phone call cuts off. Watch the Battery Status icon and
make sure that your battery is adequately charged.
Note: The battery’s operation time may shorten,
depending on your phone usage. The phone
could be heated when the call time is long.
4. When charging is finished and the service light
turns green, unplug the adapter from the power
outlet and from the phone.

Entering Text
At many times when using your phone, you will need
to enter text; for example, when storing a name in
Phone Book, creating your personal greeting or
scheduling events in your calendar. You can enter
alphanumeric characters into your phone using your
phone’s keypad.
Your phone has the following text input modes:
• T9(English): This mode allows you to enter words
with only one key press per letter. Each key on a
keypad has more than one letter - a single press on
could be J,K or L. The T9 mode automatically
compares your key presses to an internal linguistic
database to determine the correct word. The T9
mode requires far fewer keystrokes than the
traditional multi-tap method, Alphabet mode.
• Alphabet: This mode allows you to enter letters by
pressing the key labeled with the desired letter
once, twice, or three times until the letter appears
on the display.
• Symbol: This mode allows you to enter special
characters.
• Number: This mode allows you to enter numbers.
Notes:
• T9 mode is available only in Engilsh. For further
details about entering text Hindi characters, see
page 41 in the Hindi User’s Manual.
