Charging a New Battery
New batteries are supplied in a totally uncharged state.

battery that has not been used for several months) should be
charged for at least 14 hours before use.

cycles in order to achieve its optimum performance.

A new battery, or a battery that has not been used for
several months, may cause a premature fully charged
indication. Ignore this indication and let the battery charge
for several more hours, remove and re-insert the battery
into the charger, and charge for an additional 14 hours.

properly to the phone connection markings (+ and -).
Please ensure that you have installed the batteries
properly before initiating a charge.
