battery in temperatures less than –4 °F (–20 °C) or greater than
+140 °F (+60 °C).
Do not use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in places with
excessive humidity, such as a bathroom.
Keep the metal contacts at the top end of the battery clean.
Never dispose of the battery in a fire or trash compactor.
Do not try to disassemble or short circuit the battery.

Battery chargers
Charge the batteries with the AC wall charger, universal travel charger, or
cigarette lighter adapter (see Accessories, page 67).
Note
When using the AC wall charger, plug the charger into the power
source first, and then into the phone.
You can use the phone while charging the battery. However, it will charge
more quickly if the phone is turned off. The battery does not need to be
completely drained before you recharge it.
The universal travel charger allows you to charge the battery while it is
attached to the phone whether the phone is turned on or off. You can also
charge another battery at the same time.
After you connect the phone to one of the chargers, check the charging
status:
If the battery is charging, a message displays and the bars on the
battery indicator flash in sequence.
If the phone is turned off, a message displays on the screen when
charging is complete.
The typical charge time to 90% charge level for the universal travel charger,
cigarette lighter adapter, or AC wall charger is 2-1/2 hours.
Low battery
The phone alerts you when the battery is low. To turn off the battery alert,
set the ringer volume to zero (0).
The battery indicator flashes.
The phone beeps three times (if you are on a call, the phone continues
to beep every minute).
The message “Low Battery! Recharge Battery Soon” displays on the
screen.
