Charging the battery
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 will reach its
full capacity after several complete utilization cycles.
When your battery is exhausted, the empty battery icon flashes. In this case,
charge your battery for at least 15 minutes before making any calls to ensure
you are not cut off.
Notes: Each SAGEM phone has a specific charger with the appropriate
connectors for the phone with which it is sold. Using any other charger, or its
use on any other device other than the phone will invalidate the warranty.
To charge the battery:
Connect the charger to a socket.
Plug the end of the cable into the connector located on the side of the phone.
The phone is then charging up. When the battery is fully charged, the charging stops on its own. Disconnect the cable. When
charging, the battery may warm up; this is normal. When you charge the battery, the mains sockets where the charger is
plugged in must be easily accessible.
WARNING
There is danger of explosion if the battery is not inserted correctly or if it is exposed to fire.
Do not short circuit it.
The battery does not have any part that you can change.
Do not try to open the battery casing.
Use only the appropriate chargers and batteries as shown in the phone manufacturer's catalog. The use of other types
of chargers or batteries may be dangerous or invalidate the warranty.
Used batteries must be disposed of in the appropriate places.
We advise you to take the battery out if you plan not to use the phone for extended periods.
You are strongly advised not to connect your phone to the charger if it doesn’t contain a battery.
The charger is a safety step-down transformer; you must not modify, alter or replace it by any another component
(ordinary mains plug, etc.).
if the battery is completely discharged, the phone will not start. In this case, connect the phone to the mains charger.
The phone will switch on after being charged for a few minutes.
You can use the phone again when the Start option is displayed on the screen.
