3
outlet.
You can use the phone while it is charging, but it•
may take longer to fully charge the battery.
While charging, the phone may heat up. This

memory cards, but some brands may not be fully
compatible with your phone. Using an incompatible
memory card may damage your phone or the
memory card and can corrupt data stored on the
card.
Your phone supports only the FAT le structure for•
memory cards. If you insert a card formatted with
