Display Indicators
Signal strength indication
A cellular phone sends and receives radio signals.
As with all radio equipment, the quality of radio
reception depends on the strength of the radio
signal in the area where you are operating your
phone.
The strength of the cellular signal is
shown by the vertical bar on the left-
hand side of the display. The higher the
bar, the stronger the signal at your
present location, and the more likely you
are to get good call quality.
When NO SERVICE is displayed, the
phone is either outside of the cellular
service area or restricted from entering service,
and calls cannot be made or received.
If the signal is poor and you are using the phone
in a building, you may get better reception near a
window.
IMPORTANT! The phone can make and receive calls
only when:
• It is switched on, and
• It is located in the cellular service area, and
the radio signal strength is adequate.
To make an emergency call, see "Emergency Calls"
on page 75.

Battery Information
Charging the Battery
1Connect the lead from the charger to the bottom
of your phone, or place the phone in the Compact
Desktop Charging Stand (optional accessory).
Note: See the “Accessories” section starting on page 68
for more charging options.
2Plug the charger into a standard wall outlet.
When charging starts, the
segments of the battery
indicator scroll and the
phone beeps once.
After the segments of the
battery indicator stop scrol-
ling and all segments are displayed, the
battery is fully charged.
Charging times (specified below) depend on
the charger used.
3Disconnect the charger from the power outlet
and phone.
You can use the phone during charging, but
charging is reduced for the duration of the call.
Note: In a call, charging stops completely if you are
using the Standard Travel Charger (ACP-7U).
If the battery is too hot or cold, the charging may
be interrupted until the battery reaches its nor-
mal operating temperature.

Battery Information
Talk and Standby times
Battery operation times depend greatly on how
you use the phone, as well as on the coverage of
the network and network parameters set by the
wireless service provider. Typical times are shown
in the table.
Battery Low warning
The phone says BATTERY
LOW and gives a warning
tone when the battery charge
is low and only a few minutes
of talk time remain.
The repetition rate of the battery low warnings
depends on the remaining battery capacity and
the battery condition.
When the battery charge is too low for the phone
to work, the phone displays RECHARGE BATTERY,
then beeps, then shuts itself off.
Charge the battery as described earlier in this
section.

Battery Information
Removing the Battery
Note: Switch off the phone’s power before removing the
battery!
1Slide the battery cover down slightly, then lift
it off.
2Lift the battery out.
Important Battery information
• Use only batteries and chargers approved by
the phone manufacturer.
• When a 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 overcharging may shorten its life.
• If left unused, a fully charged battery may lose
some if its charge over time.
• Never use any charger or battery that is
damaged or worn out.
• Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
• Do not short circuit the battery. Accidental
short circuiting can occur when a metallic
object (e.g. coin, clip or pen) causes direct

Battery Information
connection of the + and - terminals of the
battery (metal strips on the side of the
battery), for example, when you carry a spare
battery in your pocket or purse. Short circuit-
ing the terminals may damage the battery or
the connecting object.
• Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such
as in a closed car in summer or winter condi-
tions, reduces the capacity and lifetime of
the battery. Always try to keep the battery
between 59°F and 77°F (15°C and 25°C).
A phone with a hot or cold battery may tem-
porarily not work, even if the battery is fully
charged, or it may temporarily not charge.
Li-Ion battery performance is particularly
limited in temperatures below 32°F (0°C).
• Temperature extremes affect the ability of
your battery to charge; allow it to cool down
or warm up first.
• When the battery is not in use, store it
uncharged in a cool, dark and dry place.
• The battery is a sealed unit with no service-
able parts. Do not attempt to open the case.
• The battery can be charged and discharged
hundreds of times but will eventually wear
out. When the operating time is shorter than
normal, it is time to buy a new battery.
• Do not dispose of a battery in a fire!
• Dispose of used batteries in accordance with
any local laws and regulations.

The Basics
5. The Basics
Opening the phone
To prolong the life of your phone, hold it in one
hand while opening the cover with the other
hand.
Switching the Phone on and off
•Press the PWR key for about one second.
If Keyguard is active, you need to deactivate it
before you can turn the phone off.

Your phone operates on specific networks and
sometimes it must choose which system to use.
This can happen, for example, if you leave the
area where you have signed up for service.
If you want your phone to work only in certain
types of networks (for example, to take advantage
of certain billing agreements between systems),
you can specify this using “Carrier Selection
(Menu 5 1 1)“. See page 42.

The Basics
TIPS ON EFFICIENT OPERATION: Extend your antenna
fully when in calls. As with any other radio transmitting
device, avoid unnecessary contact with the antenna
when the phone is switched on. Contact with the
antenna affects call quality and may cause the phone to

headset.
When there is an incoming
call CALL flashes on the dis-
play and the LED indicator
flashes. The phone’s ringing
sound (and vibration)
depends on the Profile you’re using. See “Selecting
the Profile” on page 18.
