Charging the Battery
Warning! Use only the standard charger provided
with the phone. Using any charger other than the
one included with the LX5550 may damage your
phone or battery.
1. Plug the standard charger into a wall outlet. The
phone must be charged from a 120V AC power
source.
2. Plug the standard charger into the phone. The
red light indicates the battery is charging and the
green light indicates the battery is fully charged.
The charge time varies depending upon the
battery level. The maximum charge time for a
fully discharged battery is 3 hours.
Battery Charge Level
The battery charge level is shown at the top right of
the LCD screen. When the battery charge level
becomes low, the low battery sensor alerts you in
three ways: sounding an audible tone, blinking the
battery icon, and displaying
LOW BATTERY WARNING!
If the battery charge level becomes exceedingly low,
the phone automatically switches off and any
function in progress is not saved.
