Charging the Battery
Before using the device for the first time, charge the main battery until the green Charging/Notification light
emitting diode (LED) remains lit. To charge the device, use a cable or a cradle with the appropriate power
supply. For information about the accessories available for the device, see Accessories for more information.
The 4,620 mAh battery fully charges in less than five hours at room temperature.
Charge batteries in temperatures from 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F). The device or accessory always performs
battery charging in a safe and intelligent manner. At higher temperatures (approximately +37°C (+98°F)) the
device or accessory may, for small periods of time, alternately enable and disable battery charging to keep the
26
battery at acceptable temperatures. The device or accessory indicates when charging is disabled due to
abnormal temperatures via its LED.
To charge the main battery:
1. Connect the charging accessory to the appropriate power source.
2. Insert the device into a cradle or attach to a cable. The device turns on and begins charging. The
Charging/Notification LED blinks amber while charging, then turns solid green when fully charged.
