Charging the battery

Charging the battery
The battery is not fully charged
when delivered. Plug charger cable
into the bottom of the phone, plug
power supply unit into a wall outlet
and charge for at least two hours.
As an alternative, the battery can be
charged via the USB port (see Acces-
sories, page 127).

Charging time
A discharged battery is fully charged
after about 2 hours. Charging is only
possible within a temperature range
of +5 °C to 45 °C (41 °F to 113 °F). If
the temperature rises/falls 5 °C (9 °F)
above/below this range, the charge
symbol flashes a warning. The line
voltage specified on the power sup-
ply unit must not be exceeded.
Operating time
The operating time depends on the
conditions of use. Extreme tempera-
tures considerably reduce the
phone's standby time. Avoid leaving
the phone in the sun or on a heater.
Call time: 100 to 330 minutes
Standby time: 60 to 300 hours
Charge icon not visible
If the battery is fully discharged, the
charge icon is not immediately visi-
ble when the power supply is
plugged in. It will appear after up to
two hours. In this case, the battery is
fully charged after 3 to 4 hours.
Only use the plug-in power supply
included in the delivery!
Display while in service
Charge level display during opera-
tion (empty–full):
V W X
A beep sounds when the battery is
nearly flat. The charge level of the
battery is only displayed correctly af-
ter an uninterrupted charging/dis-
charging cycle. You should therefore
not remove the battery unnecessarily
and where possible not finish the
charging process prematurely.
Additional information
The power supply unit heats up when used
for long periods. This is normal and not
dangerous.
If the battery is removed for longer than
30 seconds, the clock must be reset.
