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 promptly when flat.
If the battery is deeply discharged it can take 30 minutes to start
charging. Leave it on charge to recover the battery.
Keep your handset and battery cool. High temperatures degrade the
battery more quickly.
Normal charge time is 3-4 hours. Do not charge more than 24hrs.
When not using the phone for long periods charge to approx 40% and
remove the battery.
With low network signal conditions battery life is reduced.
Turn off Bluetooth and Wi-Fi when not in use, and set the screen
brightness to automatic to maximise battery life.

SAFETY
GENERAL STATEMENT ON RF ENERGY
The phone is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. When switched on it intermittently transmits radio frequency (RF) energy (radio waves). The transmit power level is optimised for best performance and automatically reduces when there is good quality reception. Maximum power is only used at the edge of network coverage so under most circumstances the power output is very low. Under poor network conditions the phone transmits at a higher power, may get hot and have a shorter battery life.
SPECIFIC ABSORPTION RATE (SAR) The phone is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves recommended by the ICNIRP. The limits include safety margins designed to assure the protection of all persons, regardless of age and health. The guidelines measure the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile devices is 2W/Kg. This device has been tested and approved to be lower than the maximum allowed SAR value. The worst case SAR value for this device is 0.696W/Kg tested in the body position (10mm spacing) with simultaneous Wi-Fi. The limit is 2.0W/Kg
