Safety Precautions Handling the Phone, Battery and Charger Only use the battery and charger specified for the phone. Failure to do so can result in damage to the phone, electric shock or fire. Do not store or operate the phone or charger in hot, damp, or dusty areas, which can damage electrical and mechanical components. Avoid prolonged exposure to temperatures below 5°C (41°F) or in excess of 35°C (95°F). Do not drop, shake or throw the phone or charger. Rough handling can damage internal circuit boards and the battery pack. Do not use the phone in the vicinity of volatile gases. Leave the area before using the phone. Failure to leave the area can result in the risk of fire or an explosion. Do not disassemble or modify the phone, charger, or battery. Incorrect modifications, reassembly, or tampering may result in malfunction or personal injury. Handling the Phone Do not use the phone while operating a vehicle. Observe local regulations for specialized areas (hospital, aircraft, etc) when using the phone. Do not use the phone near electronic equipment prone to interference. Radio frequency interference may result in electronic equipment malfunction. The following electronic equipment may be affected: Hearing aids, pacemakers and other clinical electronic devices, smoke detectors, automatic doors and other automatically controlled devices. 5 Keep all storage media (magnetic cards, floppy disks, credit cards, etc.) away from the phone. Close contact can erase or damage the storage media. Keep all sharp metal objects (pins, nails, hairpins etc.) away from the phone handset. The handset earpiece contains a strong magnet that can attract and hold metal objects. To avoid personal injury, remove any objects from the handset earpiece before using. Handling the Battery Do not dispose of the battery pack in a fire. It may explode. Check with local waste management codes for disposal instructions. Do not force the battery pack into the phone. Improper installation can cause malfunctions or damage the battery pack. This may result in fire or personal injury. Use caution in handling batteries in order not to short the battery on conductive materials such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The battery and/or conductor may overheat and cause burns. If the battery becomes too hot while recharging, it should be removed immediately from the charger. When clothes or skin are exposed to battery leakage, rinse with clean water at once to prevent skin irritation. Do not use a cracked, leaking or odor-emitting battery pack near an open flame or high temperatures. If a fully discharged battery is stored for a long period of time, it may not be possible to recharge the battery. Observe local waste management codes for proper battery disposal instructions. Handling the Charger Only use a power source that provides the appropriate voltage (AC100~240 V) for the charger. 6 An unsuitable power source can result in damage to the charger, electric shock or fire. Do not use the charger if the power supply cord or plug is damaged or frayed (exposed or broken wires, etc). This can result in the risk of fire or electric shock. Do not short circuit the charger connector jack. This may result in fire or electric shock. In the event that liquid is spilled into the unit, immediately unplug the charger from the wall outlet to prevent fire or electric shock. To avoid the risk of electric shock, always unplug the charger from the wall outlet before cleaning. To avoid damage, do not place heavy objects on the cord. To avoid damage and the risk of electric shock, always grip the power plug when removing the charger from the wall outlet. Do not pull on the power supply cord. 7 Front View of Your Phone 1.

It allows you to recharge your battery before it is fully 12 drained. The battery provides up to 3.5 hours of continuous digital talk time (up to 1.5 hours in analog). When the battery reaches 5% of its capacity, the battery icon blinks. When there are approximately two minutes of talk time left, the phone sounds an audible alert and then powers down. Note: Long backlight settings, searching for service and vibrate mode affect the battery's talk and standby times. Tip: Be sure to watch your phone's battery level indicator and charge the battery before it runs out of power. Installing the Battery 1.

Removing the Battery Pull down the release latch, lift up the battery cover and remove the battery from the phone. Charging the Battery Your phone's LiIon battery is rechargeable and should be charged as soon as possible so you can begin using your phone. Keeping track of your battery's charge is important. If your battery level becomes too low, your phone automatically turns off and you will lose all the information you were just working on. For a quick check of your phone's battery level, glance at the battery charge indicator located in the upper-right corner of your phone's display screen. If the battery charge is getting too low, the battery icon blinks and the phone sounds a warning tone. Always use an approved desktop charger, travel charger, or vehicle power adapter to charge your battery. Warning: Using the wrong battery charger could cause damage to your phone and void the warranty. Using the Charger To use the travel charger provided with your phone: Connect one end of the charger into the phone's charger jack and plug the other end into a standard 100~240V AC wall outlet. You can monitor the battery status by checking the battery level indicator. It takes approximately 3 hours to fully recharge a completely rundown battery. With the approved LiIon 14 battery, you can recharge the battery before it becomes completely run down.
