Charging the battery
To use your phone, you must connect the travel charger or the HotSync
cable and charge the battery. When you’re near your computer, connect
your phone to the HotSync cable with the travel charger connected to a
wall outlet as shown in the section that begins on page 19. When
travelling, connect the travel charger cable directly to your phone as
shown in this section.
When wireless mode is on, a fully charged battery provides approximately
2.5 hours of talk time or 150 hours of standby time. When wireless mode
is off, a fully charged battery provides approximately one week of use in
handheld mode.
If the battery drains to the point where your phone does not turn on, it
stores your data safely for about three days. Therefore, we recommend
that you charge the battery daily to avoid potential data loss. See Section
9 for tips on extending the life of the battery.
To charge the battery with the travel charger:
1. Plug the travel charger into a wall outlet.
2. With the word “UP” facing up (as shown), connect the travel
charger cable to the charger connector on the bottom of your phone.
Tip: The LED is solid red while your phone charges. When the LED turns
solid green, your phone is charged. It takes approximately 2 hours to
charge a fully drained battery.
