Note: Fully charge the battery before using your phone for the first time. A discharged battery recharges fully in approximately four hours. You can use the phone while the battery is charging, but this causes the phone to charge more slowly.
Note: For connection to an electrical supply not located in North America, you must use an adapter of the proper configuration for the power outlet. Use of the wrong adapter could damage your phone and void your warranty.
1. Plug the connector of the travel adapter into the jack on the right side of the phone.
2. Plug the adapter into a standard AC wall outlet. If the phone is off, the display indicates that the phone is charging. If the phone is on, the bars in the battery icon flash to indicate charging.
3. When the phone is fully charged, the message “Battery Full” appears on the display or the bars in the battery icon stop flashing.
4. Unplug the adapter from the power outlet and disconnect it from the phone by gently pulling the connector out of the jack.
Note: To avoid damaging the phone, you must unplug the adapter before removing the battery from the phone.
