GETTING STARTED

INSTALLING THE BATTERY

1   Place the base of the battery into the lower part of the phone, taking
    care to line up the screw in the lower right corner with the indent in
    the battery plastic.

2   Push the top of the battery toward the upper part of the phone, until
    the catch clicks.

To remove battery, when required:

1   Press and hold catch.

2   Pull top of battery away from phone.

3   Detach battery from the phone.

CHARGING THE BATTERY

1   Take the charger supplied, and fit the connector into the phone.

2   Connect the charger to a standard 120V AC outlet (or cigarette lighter
    receptacle).

3   For fastest charging, make sure the phone is off.

4   Leave the battery on charge for 24 hours before initial use.  After
    the first use, the charging times depend on the type of battery
    fitted, and charger used; approximate times are shown below:

Battery Type

Charger Type             BTH-8S/L    BTH-8SM    BTH-8H    BTH-8HM

Travel Charger           90 mins     110 mins   5 hrs     5.5 hrs
(ACH-3U)

Fast Travel Charger      40 mins     60 mins    70 mins   100 mins
(ACH-4U)
or Cigarette Lighter Charger (LCH-2U)

5   When charging is complete, disconnect the charger from the outlet and
    from the phone.  For further details, please refer to 'Charging
    Indications' (below), and 'Battery Information' (page 48).

Charging indications:

   - When the phone is switched off, and the charger is connected, only
     the `B' part of the battery indicator will be visible.

   - When the phone is switched on, and charging is in progress, the bars
     on the battery charge indicator will `scroll'.  When the battery is
     fully charged, the scrolling will stop and all bars will be on
     (steady).

SWITCHING ON

1   Press and hold the ON key.

    The phone will carry out a short self-test, briefly displaying the
    `wake-up' message.  (This message is programmed by your dealer, but
    you may change it if you wish; refer to `Changing the wake-up
    message', page 26, for further details).

    When the ON indicator appears, the phone is ready for use.

    If the NO SVC indicator remains on, then you may be outside the
    cellular service area, and will not be able to make or receive calls.

    Remember, to make or receive any calls, your phone must be switched on
    and in service.

    If you are using the SID function (refer to `SID (Menu 18)',
    page 45 for details):

    When SID is switched on, and specific carriers are not available in
    your area, then the NO part of the NO SVC indicator may flash; in this
    instance you may be able to make emergency calls, but will not be able
    to make other calls or receive any calls.

    As with other radio-transmitting devices, avoid prolonged contact with
    the antenna when the phone is switched on.

SWITCHING OFF

1   Press and hold the ON key.

    The display will become blank.

    If the charger is connected, the B indicator will remain on, and
    charging will continue.

    NOTE:

    Switch off the phone before removing the battery.
