Standby and Talk Times
Note: Battery talk and standby times are estimates only and depend on signal strength,
network conditions, features used, battery age and condition (including the effect of
charging habits), temperatures to which battery is exposed, use in digital mode, and
many other factors. Please note that the amount of time a phone is used for calls will
affect its standby time. Likewise, the amount of time that the phone is turned on and
in standby mode will affect its talk time.
Charging and Discharging
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery. Note that the full performance
of a new battery is achieved only after two or three complete charge and discharge
cycles!
The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times but it will eventually
wear out. When the operating time (talk-time and standby time) is noticeably
shorter than normal, it is time to buy a new battery.
Use only batteries approved by the phone manufacturer and recharge your battery
only with the chargers approved by the manufacturer. Unplug the charger when
not in use. Do not leave the battery connected to a charger for longer than 72
hours, since prolonged maintenance charging may shorten its lifetime. If left
unused, a fully charged battery will discharge over time.
Temperature extremes can affect the ability of your battery to charge. Battery will
not charge at temperatures above 140°F (60°C).
When the battery is fully charged, the indicator will tell you that the battery is fully
charged.
When you are not using a charger, disconnect it from the power source. Do not
leave the battery connected to a charger for more than 72 hours, since prolonged
maintenance charging could shorten its lifetime. If left unused, a fully-charged
battery will discharge over time.
Temperature extremes can affect the ability of your battery to charge. Therefore,
allow it to cool down or warm up before trying to charge it.
When the battery is running out of power and your phone only has a few minutes
of talk time remaining, a warning tone sounds and the
Battery low message appears
briefly. When no more talk time is left, a warning tone is sounded and the phone
switches itself off.
