it before you can switch on your phone for the first time. If the phone indicates a low
charge, do the following:
1 Connect the charger to a wall outlet.
2 Connect the charger to the phone.
3 When the phone indicates a full charge, disconnect the charger from the phone,
then from the wall outlet.

the phone while it is charging.
If the battery is completely discharged, it may take several minutes before the
charging indicator is displayed or before any calls can be made.

If the battery has not been used for a long time, to begin charging, you may need to
connect the charger, then unplug and reconnect it.
Charge the battery over USB

cable to connect to a compatible device, such as a computer.
To avoid breaking the charger connector, be careful when connecting or
disconnecting the charger cable.
