Welcome and quick guide PROLONG THE BATTERY Use the following guidelines to obtain the best performance from your battery: � With your phone turned off, charge your new battery for three hours before its first use. Use the battery until it is fully discharged. Repeat this procedure twice for a total of three charging cycles. Note that the full performance of a new battery is achieved only after two or three complete charge and discharge cycles. Battery operation times may be less than the estimated times during the first charges. This condition is normal. You can use your phone while the battery is charging. However, if the battery is completely empty, it may need to recharge a few minutes before you can make or receive calls or the battery indicator appears. After the first charge, you can make and receive calls during the charging cycle, but the calls lengthen the charging time. When the phone call ends, the charge will resume. The bars on the screen stop scrolling and remain constant when the phone is fully charged. If you leave the phone connected to the charger, the battery receives an additional charge. If you switch the phone on when charging is complete, the Battery full message momentarily appears in the display. Note: The battery will accept a �trickle charge" for an additional two hours. REPLACE THE BATTERY You will need to remove the existing battery if you want to replace the battery or insert the SIM card. Make sure the phone has been turned off for 10 seconds before removing the battery. Note: Before removing the phone cover, always switch off the power and disconnect the phone from the charger or any other device. Always store and use the phone with the covers attached.
