Charge battery
The battery is not fully charged
when delivered. Plug charger cable
into the bottom of the phone, plug
power supply unit into a mains
power socket and charge for at least
two hours
.
Display when charging is in progress:

During charging.
If
Dynamic Light
is activated for
Charging
LEDs flash slowly to show that the
charging process is in progress.
When the battery is fully charged,
these LEDs switch off.
Charging time
An uncharged battery is fully
charged after about 2 hours. Charg-
ing is only possible within a tempera-
ture range of +5 °C to +40 °C. If the
temperature rises/falls 5 °C above/
below this, the charge symbol
flashes a warning. The mains voltage
specified on the power supply unit
must not be exceeded (Operating
Charging and Discharging
Note that a new battery's full perfor-
mance is achieved only after two or
three complete charge and dis-
charge cycles. The operations times
provided are reasonable estimates
and may be affected by network con-
ditions, charging and phone usage.
The battery can be charged and dis-
charged hundreds of times but it will
eventually wear out. A noticeably
shorter operating time (talk-time
and standby time) may be an indica-
tion that the battery requires
replacement.
Use only Siemens batteries and
recharge your battery only with
Siemens chargers. When the charger
is not in use, disconnect it from the
power source. Do not leave the bat-
tery connected to a charger for
longer than a week, since overcharg-
ing may shorten its life. If left unused
a fully charged battery will discharge
itself over time.
If the battery is completely empty, it
may take a few minutes before you
can make or receive a call once you
plug the phone into a charger.
Temperature extremes will affect
the ability of your battery to charge:
allow it to cool down or warm up
first.
Note
Keep SIM cards out of reach of small chil-
dren. The SIM cards and its contacts are
easily damaged by scratching or bending,
so be careful when handling, inserting or
removing the SIM card.
