you charge your phone, the lock screen will tell you the battery level each time you wake up your phone.

• On first use please charge the battery for 3-4 hours. It is better to keep

your battery topped up than to let it fully discharge.

TIPS TO MAXIMISE BATTERY LIFE

• After 2-3 charge / discharge cycles the battery life will improve. From

then on use top up charging to recharge frequently and always charge promptly when flat.

• To avoid the battery entering a deep discharged state charge the

battery more quickly.

remove the battery.
