Battery
Your phone comes with a rechargeable Lithium-ion battery and is designed to use only
manufacturer-specified original batteries and accessories. Battery performance depends
on many factors, including network configuration, signal strength, the temperature of the
environment in which you operate your phone, the features and/or settings you select and
use, items attached to connecting ports, and your voice, data, and other program usage
patterns.
Removing the thin film from the battery
When you take your phone out from the box and remove the back cover for the first time,
you’ll find that the battery is inside the phone with a thin film. Pull the upper flap of the film
to release the battery. Make sure to peel off the film before placing back the battery.
Inserting the battery
Line up the battery’s copper contacts with the connectors inside the battery slot. Then
gently push the battery into place.
Basics 17
Removing the battery
Lift out the battery from the small opening on the left side of the battery compartment.
Charging the battery
The battery is partially charged when shipped. Before you turn on and start using your
phone, it is recommended that you charge the battery. Some batteries perform best after
several full charge/discharge cycles.
Only the power adapter and USB sync cable provided with your phone must be used to charge
the battery.
Do not remove the battery from the phone while you are charging it using the power or car adapter.
1. Attach the power plug to the power adapter.
2. Plug the power adapter into the USB connector on the left side of your phone.
3. Plug in the power adapter to an electrical outlet to start charging the battery.
As the battery is being charged, the notification LED shows a solid red light when the battery
is being charged. The light turns to solid green when the phone is fully charged.
When you charge the battery while the phone is on, the charging battery icon ( ) is
displayed in the status bar of the Home screen. After the battery has been fully charged, a
full battery icon ( ) will be displayed in the status bar of the Home screen.
As a safety precaution, the battery stops charging when it overheats.
