•
Only use the charger supplied.

Normal charge time is 2-3 hours.
•
When not using the phone for a long period remove the battery and store it in a cool dry
place.
•
Do not leave the phone connected to the charger for extended periods of time eg > 24
hrs.
•
If the battery is not fully charged after 3 hours please stop charging.
•
Charge the battery between 0°C~50°C. If the temperature of the handset is too high,
switch it off and let it cool.
•
Battery life can be maximized by regularly allowing the phone to fully discharge before
recharging the battery.
•
Charge the battery promptly when flat.
•
Under poor network conditions (less than 2 bars) it is normal for the battery to only last 1
day.
•
To maximize battery life turn off Bluetooth and reduce the back lighting to 10 seconds
(see Section 1.13 - ‘Personalise your Phone’).

If the phone is not used for a long time or the battery is completely flat it may take a few
minutes to power up.
