2. Getting Connected
You’ll needto charge your battery once your phone has
been activated. This section will help familiarize you on
how, and when, to charge your battery.
Attaching your battery
Simply place the battery in the grooves on the back of
your phone. Then slide the battery upward untilit clicks.
Note: Use only those batteries approved by the phone
manufacturer and recharge your battery only with the chargers
approved by the manufacturer.
See “Important Battery Information” on page 10.
Removing the battery
Note: Switch off the phone before removing the battery!
1. Press and hold
the button at the top
of the battery.
2. Slide the battery
toward the bottom
of the phone.
3. Lift the battery off
the phone.

9
Charging your new battery
Your phone can be used with either a rechargeable
Li-Ion or NiMH battery. Note that a new battery’s full
performance is achieved only after two or three
complete charge and discharge cycles.
With your phone on or off, connect the charger to a
standard 120V AC outlet. Then connect the lead from
the charger to the bottom of your phone or place it on
a charging stand.
Whenthebatterybeginscharging,yourphonewillbeep
once andthebattery strength indicator on the right side
of the display will scroll.
Note: If the battery is totally empty, it may take a few minutes
before the charging indication appears on the display.
If your phone displays#1RW#FKDUJLQJ, charging is sus-
pended. Check that the battery is not connected to a
non-approved charging device. If the batteryis very hot
or cold, wait for a while; charging will automatically
resume after the battery is restored to its normal
operating state. If charging still fails, contact your dealer.
When is a good time to charge?
You can charge your battery anytime. If you have a
NiMH battery, you should allow it to completely dis-
charge once in a while.
Whenyour phone beeps once and displays %DWWHU\#ORZ,
you only have a couple of minutes of talk time remain-
ing. The repetition rate of these battery-low warnings
depend on the remaining battery capacity and the bat-
tery condition. These warnings are more frequent when
you’re in a call.
Note: The phone will not give you the warning tone under
certain conditions. See “Warning tones” on page 71.
Once all the power has drained from your battery, you’ll
hear three beeps with the message 5HFKDUJH#EDWWHU\ on
your display. At this point, your phone will switch itself
off and you’ll need to recharge your battery.

10
When is charging complete?
When the charge indicators stop scrolling, your
phone is considered fully charged. However, a
slight increase in charge may occur if your
phone is left connected to the charger for a
while. This is called “trickle charge.”
Charging times depend on the type of battery and
charger used.
For approximate charging and operating times, see “Standby
and Talk Times” on page 74.
Can you make calls while charging?
Yes, you can. But your battery may not charge while a
call is in progress. Charging should resume once you
end the call.
Discharging NiMH batteries
A NiMH battery lasts longer and performs better if you
fully discharge it from time to time. To discharge the bat-
tery, leave your phone switched on until the battery is
drained. The phone will display several messages that
the battery is low and that you need to recharge it; just
ignorethem. Donotattempttodischargethebatteryby
any other means.
Important Battery Information
• Note that a new battery’s full performance is achieved only
after two or three complete charge and discharge cycles!
• The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of
times but it will eventually wear out. When the operating
time (talk time and standby time) is noticeably shorter than
normal, it is time to buy a new battery.
• Use only batteries approved by the phone manufacturer
and recharge your battery only with the chargers
approved by the manufacturer. When a charger is not in
use, disconnect it from the power source. Do not leave
the battery connected to a charger for longer than a
week, since overcharging may shorten its life. If left
unused a fully charged battery will discharge itself over
time.

11
• (NiMH batteries only) For good operation times, discharge
the battery from time to time by leaving your phone
switched on until it turns itself off (or by using the battery
discharge facility of any approved accessory available for
your phone). Do not attempt to discharge the battery by
any other means.
• Temperature extremes will affect the ability of your battery
to charge: allow it to cool down or warm up first.
• Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
• Never use any charger or battery which is damaged or
worn out.
• Do not short circuit the battery. Accidental short circuiting
can occur when a metallic object (coin, clip, or pen)
causes direct connection of the + and - terminals of the
battery (metal strips on the back of the battery), for
example when you carry a spare battery in your pocket or
purse. Short circuiting 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 conditions, will reduce the
capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try to keep the
battery between 59º F and 77º F (15º C and 25º C).
A phone with a hot or cold battery may temporarily not
work, even when the battery is fully charged. NiMH
batteries’ performance is particularly limited in tempera-
tures below 14º F (-10º C). Li-Ion batteries’ performance is
particularly limited in temperatures below 32º F (0º C).
• Do not dispose of batteries in a fire!
• Batteries must be recycled or disposed of properly. Must
not be disposed of in municipal waste.

3. The Basics
You have purchased a powerful phone, with lots of fea-
tures. Read this section for some very basic information
on how to use your phone.
A more comprehensive description of your phone is
covered in “Features A to Z” starting on page 21.
Switching the phone on and off
Press and hold the ðkey for two seconds to switch
the phone on or off.
Switching off with the ðkey
Quickly press the ðkey (6ZLWFK#RII$will appear,
highlighted) then press 2..
NORMAL POSITION: Hold the phone as you would any other
telephone with the antenna pointed up and over your shoulder.
TIPS ON EFFICIENT OPERATION: As with any other radio
transmitting device, do not touch the antenna unnecessarily
when the phone is switched on. Contact with the antenna
affects call quality and may cause the phone to operate at a
higher power level than otherwise needed.
WARNING! Do not switch on the phone when wireless phone
use is prohibited or when it may cause interference or danger.
See “Safety At A Glance” on page 6 for more information.
Get a good signal
Your phone operates on radio waves, and thequality of
radio reception depends entirely on the strength of the
radio signal in your area.
This radio coverage is maintained by a wireless network
and the quality of calls on a wireless phone depends on
the strength of the wireless radio signal.

13
Checking signal strength
When you are at the start screen (see page 17)
or in a call, the signal strength is indicated by
the indicators on the left side of your phone’s
display. These indicators scroll as the strength
of the signal increases and decreases.
Increasing your phone’s signal may be easy. Try moving
your phoneslightly, ormove towardsa window ifyou’re
calling from inside a building.
Using the keypad cover
When .H\SDG#FRYHU#VHWWLQJ is on, you can answer calls
simply by opening the keypad cover. When youwant to
hang up, just close the cover and the call will end.
When the keypad cover setting is off, you must open
the keypad cover to answer any calls. Once opened,
you can press any key (except the ðand ôkeys) to
answer a call.
To end a call, press ôbefore closing the keypad
cover.
Activating the keypad cover

4. Using Your Phone
The first few days you have your phone, play with it to
learn how the menu and submenu system works.
The more you learn how to access these menus and
submenus, the more fun you’ll have with your phone.
This section describes the different methods of using
your phone menus and submenus.
The Display
Soft keys
Your phone has two softkeys
located below the display. The
current function is indicated by the
texts appearing directly above
them. Press the corresponding key
under the choice you wish to select.
This illustration shows the phone at the start screen
(see “What is the ‘start screen’?” on page 17). The start
screen always displays 0HQX on the left and 1DPHV on
the right. 0HQX allows you to access your phone’s
menus and submenus. 1DPHV allows you to access
your phone book (see “Phone book” on page 51).
Scroll keys
Your phone has a scroll key located just below the
display screen. The scroll key has two arrows on it that
look like Vand W. Press theseto navigate through your
phone’s menusand submenus,as wellas through your
phone book (See “Phone book” on page 51).
Scroll bar
When you access your phone’s menu and sub-
menus, you will notice a scroll bar at the far right
of the screen. This bar indicates your location in
the menu structure; each “tab” on the bar repre-
sents a different menu item.

17
For example, press 0HQX once. The scroll bar appears
with the first (top) tab displayed. A different tab appears
each time you press the Wor Vkey to move up and
down through the menu structure. The scroll bar works
the same way with submenus.
Menu & submenu numbering
When you scroll to a menu or submenu, the menu
number and/or submenu number appears on the
display above the scroll bar.
For example, when you scroll to menu 2 (&DOO#ORJ) the
number 5appears in the top right-hand corner of the
display. If you scroll to menu 4 (6HWWLQJV), submenu 3
(6HFXULW\#VHWWLQJV), your phone will display 706 in the top
right-hand corner.
See “Summary of Menu Items” on page 19 for a list of your
phone’s features along with their menu locations.
Also, see “Using shortcuts” on page 18.
What is the ‘start screen’?
The start screen appears when you first turn your
phone on, in its idle state.
When you want to get to the start screen, press ôat
any time except during a call (unless you want to hang
up).
Note: If you press ôwhen the phone is requesting input
(i.e., a setting, phone number, name, etc.), the phone displays
the start screen and the input is not saved.
Scrolling through the main menu
Press 0HQX at the start screen. Then press Wor Vto
reach the desired menu item.
Press#6HOHFW,#2SWLRQV#or#2. (whichever appears) to enter
submenus and to choose options.
Press ([LW to exit the present menu or %DFN to go back
one level.

18
Using shortcuts
This is a quick and easy way to access a menu without
having to scroll through other menus.
Press 0HQX, then menu number, then submenu
number.
Press the menu and submenu numbers within a couple
of seconds of each other when using this method.
For a summary of your phone’s menu structure, see “Summary
of Menu Items” on page 19.

seconds and help text will appear for most of your
phone’s features.Press 0RUH toseethenextpageofthe
