Vertu Ascent Ti Reference Manual page 13

If the battery has not been used for some time, you may need to
recondition it by charging it. Although the charging indicator
appears on the display after a few seconds, it may take from
several minutes to an hour before you can make a call.
The charging time will vary with different power sources and we
recommend the Vertu wall charger should always be used.
Always charge the battery until it is fully charged. When the battery
is fully charged, the battery charge indicator stops animating and, if
your Vertu phone is switched on, a
message is briefly displayed.
If your Vertu phone is not charging, try the following:
Disconnect the charger from the AC outlet.
>
Check that the electrical rating of the AC outlet is compatible with
>
your charger.
Verify that the AC outlet has power and that it is switched on. For
>
example, in many hotel rooms, AC outlets are used for lighting and
may be switched on and off from remote locations in the room.
Wait for at least 10 seconds and then reconnect the charger to the
>
AC outlet.
Use another nearby AC outlet that you know is providing power.
>
If charging still fails, contact Vertu Concierge for further advice.

B a t t e r y
Never dispose of batteries in a fire.
Always dispose of batteries according to local regulations.
Please recycle when possible. Do not dispose of batteries
as household waste.
The full performance of a new battery 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. If you notice that the talk and stand-by times are much
shorter than normal, you may need a new battery. Contact Vertu
Concierge to obtain a Vertu approved battery.
Maximising battery performance
Certain functions in your Vertu phone can be switched off if not in
use, to help maximise your battery performance. Examples of these
are Bluetooth, 3G and the Stopwatch.
Insert the charger connector into the
bottom of your Vertu phone as
shown. Please ensure that the
connector is inserted correctly, with
the connector symbol uppermost.
Connect the charger body to a
powered AC outlet.
After a few seconds, the battery
indicator animates and a
confirmation message is displayed if
your Vertu phone is switched on.

Charging and discharging
Unplug the charger from the AC outlet and your Vertu phone when
not in use. Do not leave your Vertu phone connected to a charger.
The battery does not have to be completely discharged before you
can recharge it. Continuously charging the battery may shorten its
lifetime. If left unused, a fully charged battery will lose its charge
over time. Temperature extremes can affect the ability of your
battery to charge.
Battery care and safety
Use the battery only for its intended purpose. Never use any charger
or battery that is damaged.
Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting can
occur when a metallic object such as a coin, clip, or pen causes
direct connection of the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals of the
battery (the metal strips on the battery). This might happen, for
example, when you carry a spare battery in your pocket, purse or
bag. Short-circuiting the terminals may damage the battery and 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 15°C and 25°C
(59°F and 77°F). If your battery is very hot or extremely cold, your
Vertu phone may not work temporarily, even if the battery is fully
charged. Battery performance is particularly limited in temperatures
well below freezing.
