Tips: Regarding the battery
A
To ensure maximum battery performance, a new battery (or a battery that has not
been used for several months) should be charged for at least 14 hours before use (but
NOT more than 24 hours).
A new battery will require several full charge / discharge cycles in order to achieve its
optimum performance.

A new battery, or a battery that has not been used for several months, may cause a
prematurely fully charged indication. Ignore this indication and let the battery charge
for several more hours.
A
Do not use lithium ion batteries at extremely low temperatures as the maximum
standby / talk time will not be available when cold.
