Nokia CT-201 Cellular Telephone
(170-1005)                 Battery                    Faxback Doc. # 35116

Getting Started

Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery.

STOP! To achieve full battery capacity, new batteries must be charged with
      the phone off for at least 24 hours before initial use.

If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself in about a
month.  Store batteries uncharged in a cool, dark and dry place.

The battery pack is a sealed unit with no serviceable parts inside. Do not
attempt to open the case.

WARNING:  Use only NOKIA-approved batteries, antennae and chargers.  The
          use of any other types will invalidate any approval or warranty
          applying to the telephone, and may be dangerous.

Installing And Removing The Battery

To Install The Battery:

1.  Insert the bottom of the battery into the base of the phone.

2.  Fasten it to the phone by pressing slightly downwards on the battery
    and in at the top until the locking catch snaps into place.

3.  Make sure the battery is properly installed.

To Remove The Battery:

Remember To Switch The Power Off Before Removing The Battery.

1.  Depress the locking catch at the top of the battery and gently pull it
    away from the phone.

The Battery Charge Indicator

The bars on the right hand side of the display screen indicate the battery
charge level.  The more bars, the higher the battery charge.  When the
battery charge falls to less than 10% the phone displays a warning 
message:  BATTERY LOW, and an audible "beep" will be heard.

It will be repeated every 5 minutes if the phone is in standby mode and
every minute if the phone is in use.

When the battery if fully discharged, the message RECHARGE BATTERY is
displayed and you will hear three short "beeps".  The message will remain
on the display for 10 seconds before the phone switches itself off.

Charging And Recharging The Battery

1.  Plug the AC charger into a standard 120V AC outlet.

2.  Connect the lead from the charger to the bottom of the phone. (A short
    "beep" will sound to indicate charging is in progress).

3.  When the phone is switched on, the battery charge indicator will
    scroll the bars on the right hand side of the display screen. When the
    battery is fully charged the scrolling will stop and all the bars are
    displayed.

Detailed information on a variety of available battery chargers is 
included in the 'accessories section' (see Faxback Doc. # 35121).

A new battery must be fully charged before being used for the first time.

You can use the phone during recharging, but the charging process will be
interrupted for the duration of the call.

Batteries last longer and perform better if allowed to discharge fully at
least once a week.  You can do this by leaving the phone switched on over
night, or until the message RECHARGE BATTERY is displayed and the phone
shuts itself off.

Note:  if the battery is too hot or cold, charging will be interrupted
       until the battery reaches a normal temperature.
