charge the battery for the first time, the battery
strength indicator bars will not scroll the entire time. If
your phone is off, the scroll bars will disappear shortly
after charging begins; if your phone is on, the scroll
bars will stop scrolling after a while. This is normal. Be
sure to charge the battery for the entire 24-hour period
without interruption.
If your phone displays

, charging is sus-
pended. Check that the battery is not connected to a
non-approved charging device. If the battery is very
hot or cold, wait for a while; charging will automatically
resume after the battery is restored to its normal oper-
ating state. If charging still fails, contact your dealer.
When is a good time to charge?
Actually, you can charge anytime. If you have a NiMH
battery, you should allow it to discharge once in a while
(see Discharging NiMH batteries on page 9).
Whenever your phone beeps once and displays
%DW0
WHU\ ORZ
, you only have a couple of minutes of talk time
remaining. The repetition rate of these battery-low
warnings depend on the remaining battery capacity
and the battery condition. These warnings are more
frequent when youre in a call.
Note: The phone will not give you the warning tone under
certain conditions. See Warning tones on page 79.
Once all the power has drained from your battery,
youll hear three beeps with the message
5HFKDUJH
EDWWHU\
on your display. At this point, your phone will
switch itself off and youll need to recharge your
battery.
When is charging complete?
When the charge indicators stop scrolling,
your phone is considered fully charged.
However, a slight increase in charge may
occur if your phone is left connected to the
charger. This is called trickle charge.
