Notes:

• You can use the phone while it is charging, but charg-

ing takes longer.

• For the fastest charging, be sure the phone is turned

off during charging, if you are not expecting a call.

• If the phone is on when you connect the charger, the

phone beeps once and the keypad backlight remains
on until you disconnect the charger.

4. When the battery is fully charged, disconnect the charger

from the AC outlet. Then press in the clips on the sides
of the plug and pull it away from the phone to disconnect
the charger.

CHECKING BATTERY POWER

When battery power becomes low, the phone displays

Low

Bat

and sounds a warning tone every few seconds. When

power becomes too low for the phone to operate, it automati-
cally turns off. Recharge the battery as soon as possible.

To check the battery’s charge level at any time, press

. The battery strength meter appears on the display for

about 5 seconds. The more bars that appear on the meter,
the higher the battery’s current charge level. If few or no bars
appear, the battery’s power is low.

Notes:

• If you press

while the phone is charging, the

phone flashes

Chrging

Battery

for about 5 seconds

instead of the battery strength meter.
