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.
![](/html/69/692e/692e8c548d53c4c3bd85c958abd63560cc49840ad73e0f0f84bc49e9c1cf68b5/bg7.png)

• Do NOT use excessive force which may damage the USB port.
• Be careful to avoid tripping on the lead whilst it is plugged in.
• Physical damage to the USB port is NOT covered by warranty.
• Normal charge time is 3-4 hours.
• Do not leave on charge for more than 24hrs.
• To maximise battery life limit multimedia functions.
• Charge the battery between 0°C~45°C. Charge the battery

• With poor network conditions (less than 2 bars) battery life is
reduced.
• When not using the phone for long periods remove the battery.
![](/html/69/692e/692e8c548d53c4c3bd85c958abd63560cc49840ad73e0f0f84bc49e9c1cf68b5/bg8.png)
TIPS TO MAXIMISE BATTERY LIFE
• After 2-3 charge / discharge cycles the battery life will improve.
• Use regular top up charging rather than letting the battery fully
discharge.

• 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.

• 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.
