Charging the battery
• When the battery needs to be charged, a beep is heard. The
indicator light (on the top of your P900) flashes red and a
battery low message appears on the screen.
• The battery can be charged whenever you want. The P900
performance is not affected. However, using your P900 while
charging increases the charging time.
To charge the battery
The P900 can be charged either when it is switched on or off.
1. Make sure the battery is inserted in your P900 and the cover
is closed.
2. Connect the charger to
the P900 at the base of
the phone by the flash
symbol. The charger
plug flash symbol must
face upwards.
3. Connect the charger to
the mains.
Charging is indicated by the battery meter on the screen pulsing
continuously, and the indicator at the top of the P900 showing a
steady red light (or green, if the P900 is switched on).
See also ‘Battery Use and Care’ on page 176.
Tip You can also use other battery chargers that have been
supplied with other Sony Ericsson mobile phones using the same
connector plug, for example, T68i or T300.
Note When the battery is completely discharged, or new, it may
take up to 30 minutes before the battery charging icon appears
on the screen.
4. Wait approximately 4 hours or until the battery meter on the
screen is full and the indicator on the top of the P900 shows a
steady green light.
5. Remove the charger by tilting
the plug upwards.
