When is charging complete?
To allow the battery to completely charge, wait
for the charge indicators to stop scrolling. At this
point, your phone is considered fully charged.
However, a slight increase in charge may occur
if the phone is left connected to the charger, this
is called trickle charge.
Charging times depend on which type of battery and
charger is used. For approximate charging and operating
times, see Accessories on page 58.
When charging is completed, disconnect the charger from
the AC outlet and from your phone.
Note: When you disconnect the power cord of any acces-
sory, grasp and pull the plug, not the cord.
Can you make calls while charging?
Yes, you can. But your battery will not charge while a call
is in progress. Charging will resume when you end the call.
What if charging fails?
If your phone displays 127 &+$5*,1*, charging is sus-
pended. Make sure the battery is connected to an
approved charging device and that the battery is at room
temperature. Extreme temperatures, hot or cold, can af-
fect your batterys performance and prevent charging.
If charging still fails, disconnect the charger from your
phone. Then reconnect the charger to
your
phone and re-
try. If you still experience charging problems, contact your
dealer and, if necessary, bring your phone in to have it ser-
viced. Also remember to bring in your battery and charger.
To discharge your battery
There are two ways to properly discharge a battery. You
can leave your phone on while your battery drains, finally
turning itself off. Or you can use the discharge facility of
any approved accessory equipped with this feature.
