(170-1226/1251/1252/1253)      Battery             Faxback Doc. # 52774

Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery.  Use only 
batteries approved by the phone manufacturer and recharge your battery 
only with the chargers approved by the manufacturer.

Note:  A new battery must be charged before use.

Installing the Battery

1.  Slide the battery cover down slightly, then lift it off.

2.  Put the battery in the space on the back of the phone.  Align the
    battery contacts with the contacts in the phone.

3.  Put the battery cover in the guides on the phone, then slide it into
    position.

Charging the Battery

1.  Connect the lead from the charger to the bottom of your phone, or
    place the phone in the Compact Desktop Charging Stand (optional
    accessory).

    Note:  See the "Accessories" section in Faxback Doc. # 52780 for more
           charging options.

2.  Plug the charger into a standard wall outlet.  When charging starts,
    the segments of the battery indicator scroll and the phone beeps once.

After the segments of the battery indicator stop scrolling and all 
segments are displayed, the battery is fully charged.

Charging times (specified below) depend on the charger used.

3.  Disconnect the charger from the power outlet and phone.

You can use the phone during charging, but charging is reduced for the 
duration of the call.

Note:  In a call, charging stops completely if you are using the Standard
       Travel Charger (ACP-7U).

If the battery is too hot or cold, the charging may be interrupted until 
the battery reaches its normal operating temperature.

Charging Times

The battery charging times shown in the following table are approximate.

Standard Travel         Rapid Travel           Rapid Cigarette
Charger ACP-7U         Charger ACP-9U       Lighter Charger LCH-9

   4 Hours               2 Hours                  2 Hours

Talk and Standby Times

Battery operation times depend greatly on how you use the phone, as well 
as on the coverage of the network and network parameters set by the 
wireless service provider.  Typical times are shown in the table below.

    Talk Time      Standby Time
   100 Minutes      24 Hours

Battery Low Warning

The phone says BATTERY LOW and gives a warning tone when the battery 
charge is low and only a few minutes of talk time remain.

The repetition rate of the battery low warnings depends on the remaining 
battery capacity and the battery condition.

When the battery charge is too low for the phone to work, the phone 
displays RECHARGE BATTERY, then beeps, then shuts itself off.

Charge the battery as described earlier in this section.

Removing the Battery

Note:  Switch off the phone's power before removing the battery!

1.  Slide the battery cover down slightly, then lift it off.

2.  Lift the battery out.

Important Battery Information

  Use only batteries and chargers approved by the phone manufacturer.

  When a charge is not in use, disconnect it from the power source.  Do
  not leave the battery connected to a charger for longer than a week,
  since overcharging may shorten its life.

  If left unused, a fully charged battery may lose some of its charge over
  time.

  Never use any charger or battery that is damaged or worn out.

  Use the battery only for its intended purpose.

  Do not short circuit the battery.  Accidental short circuiting can occur
  when a metallic object (e.g. coin, clip or pen) causes direct connection
  or the + and - terminals of the battery (metal strips on the side of the
  battery), for example, when you carry a spare battery in your pocket or
  purse.  Short circuiting the terminals may damage the battery or the
  connecting object.

  Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a closed car in
  summer or winter conditions, reduce the capacity and lifetime of the
  battery.  Always try to keep the battery between 59 and 77 degrees F.
  (15 and 25 degrees C.).  A phone with a hot or cold battery may
  temporarily not work, even if the battery is fully charged, or it may
  temporarily not charge.  Li-Ion battery performance is particularly
  limited in temperatures below 32 degrees F. (0 degrees C.).

  Temperature extremes affect the ability of your battery to charge; allow
  it to cool down or warm up first.

  When the battery is not in use, store it uncharged in a cool, dark and
  dry place.

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

  The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times but will
  eventually wear our.  When the operating time is shorter than normal, it
  is time to buy a new battery.

  Do not dispose of a battery in a fire!

  Dispose of used batteries in accordance with any local laws and
  regulations.
