To install the battery, insert the battery into the
opening on the back of the phone. Put the battery
cover on the battery and push it slightly upwards.

of the phone. Pull the battery cover downward and
remove it. Then remove the battery by pressing the
upper area of it.

To use the charger provided with your phone:
Warning! Use only the charger provided with the

charger port and the other end into an electrical
outlet.

The battery charge level is shown at the top right of
