4. When charging is finished, unplug the adapter

from both the power outlet and the charger.

Using the Travel Adapter

The travel adapter allows you to use the phone

while the battery is charging, but this will cause

the phone to charge more slowly.

1. With the battery in position on the phone,

plug the connector of the travel adapter into
the bottom of the phone.

5. Take the battery out of the charger.

3. When charging is finished, unplug the adapter

from the power outlet and from the phone by

pressing the gray tabs on both sides of the

connector and pulling the connector out

Low Battery Indicator

When the battery is weak and only a few

minutes of talk time remain, you will hear a

warning tone and a message will be repeated at

regular intervals on the display.

When the battery level gets too low, the phone

automatically turns off.

2. Plug the adapter into a standard AC wall

outlet.

Note: Do not remove the battery from the phone

without unplugging the adapter while it is

charging. If you do this, the phone may be

damaged.
