Preparing the battery
Charging the battery for the first time
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery. A new phone battery must be fully charged before using your
phone for the first time.
•
Before attempting to use your phone, insert the phone's battery. Place the battery terminal end towards the
hinge of the phone. Lower the battery towards the phone to lock into place and slide back the rear cover until
you hear a click.
•
Connect the NEC battery charger supplied with your phone to a suitable main power socket.
•
Connect the charger plug into the connector at the base of the phone.
•
Check that the battery icon becomes animated on the main-LCD or 2nd-LCD. Leave the phone charging until
the battery icon stops moving to ensure that the battery is fully charged.
