Charging time
An empty battery is fully charged 
after about 2 hours. Charging is only 
possible in an ambient temperature 
of 41 °F to 104 °F (the charge icon 
flashes as a warning when the tem-
perature is 41 °F above/below this 
range). The voltage specified on the 
power supply unit must not be ex-
ceeded.
To obtain maximum performance 
from the battery, it must be fully 
charged and then emptied at least 
five times.
Charge icon not visible
If the battery is totally discharged, no 
charge icon is displayed when the 
charger is plugged in. It will appear 
after two hours at most. In this case 
the battery is fully charged after 
3-4 hours.
Only use the charger provided!
Display while in service
Charge level display during opera-
tion (empty-full):
a d g
A beep sounds when the battery is 
nearly empty. The battery level is 
only shown correctly during an un-
broken charging/discharging cycle. 
You should therefore not remove the 
battery unnecessarily
 and where possi-
ble not finish the loading process early.
Note
The charger heats up when used for long 
periods. This is normal and not dangerous.

Note 
Your phone's display is delivered with a protective film. 
Remove this film before getting started.
In rare cases, the static discharge may cause discoloration at the edges of the display. How-
ever this will disappear within 10 minutes.
