Using your phone
- Don't press the keys when not necessary: each keypress activates
the backlight, and uses much power.
- Don't activate too often the screensaver: a starting time too high
increases the power consumption.
- Don't obstruct the antenna with your fingers.
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery. A new battery must
be charged for 4 hours at least before being used for the first time. It
reaches its optimum capacity after a few cycles of use.
When your battery has been discharged, the phone displays the state
(empty battery icon flashes). In this case recharge your battery for at
least 15 minutes before making any calls in order not to be cut off in the
middle of a call.
To recharge the battery:
Connect the charger to a socket.
Plug the end of the cable into the bottom connector of the phone.
The phone is then charging up. The battery icon is scrolling up and down
to indicate that it is charging. When the battery is fully charged, the
charging stops on its own. Disconnect the cable.
When charging, the battery may warm up, this phenomenon is normal.
