Discharging the Battery
A battery lasts longer and performs better if you fully dis-
charge it from time to time. To discharge the battery, leave
your phone switched on until the battery is drained and the
phone turns itself off. Then wait for 30 minutes before con-
necting to a charging source. (See “Deep Discharge” on
page 9.)
Note: Do not attempt to discharge the battery by any other
means.
