Charging the Battery
New batteries are partially charged. Before you can use your 
handset, install and charge the battery, as follows. 
Note: Some batteries perform best after several full charge/
discharge cycles. 
Note: When you charge the battery, the battery level indicator in 
the upper right corner of the display shows the status of the 
charging process.
Battery Use
Battery performance depends on many factors, including 3’s 
network configuration; signal strength; the temperature at which 
you operate your handset; the features and/or settings you select 
and use; and your voice, data, and other application usage 
patterns.
Battery Care
Caution: To prevent injuries or burns, do not allow metal objects to 
contact or short-circuit the battery terminals.
Do This
Plug the travel 
charger into your 
handset with the 
release tab up.
Plug the other end of the travel charger into the 
appropriate electrical outlet.
When your handset indicates 
Charge Complete
, press 
the release tab and remove the travel charger.
