While charging, the Battery Strength icon at the top right-hand corner of the display repeatedly fills to show its charging.
3.When charging is finished and the service light stops blinking, unplug the adapter from the power outlet and from the phone.
Note: You can make a call at your convenience when the phone is plugged into the adaptor. The adaptor will continue to charge the battery even when you are making the call.
Getting Started
Low Battery Indicator
You can easily tell if your battery needs to be recharged by checking the battery strength indicator in 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. No bars (the battery icon is empty) means your battery must be charged.
When the battery charge level gets low, the battery sensor blinks an empty battery icon ( ), sounds a tone. If the battery level gets too low, the phone will turn off automatically. Unfortunately, if this happens you’ll lose whatever you are doing, including dropping your call. Watch the battery strength icon and make sure your battery is adequately charged.
