Installing and Charging the Battery
Your phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (Li-ion) battery. It allows
you to recharge your battery before it is fully drained. When the
battery is weak and only a few minutes of talk time remain, a
warning tone sounds and a message repeats at regular intervals on
the display. If this happens, the display dims to conserve the
remaining battery power. When the battery level becomes too low,
the phone automatically turns off.
Be sure to watch your phone’s battery level indicator and charge the
battery before it runs out of power. You can use the phone while the
battery is charging, but this causes the phone to charge more slowly.
Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibration mode,
camera and browser usage affect the battery’s talk and standby
times.
Important:
When you use the phone for the first time with a new
battery, ensure that the battery is fully charged to avoid damaging it.
Important:
Using a non-supported battery may cause damage to
your phone. When using a non-supported battery, you cannot
recharge it. The handset can be used only for the duration of the
factory battery charge, if any.
