Operating times
The operating time depends on the
respective conditions of use. Ex-
treme temperatures considerably re-
duce the phone’s standby time.
Avoid placing the phone in the sun
or on a heater.
Talktime: 100 to 300 minutes
Standby time: 60 to 250 hours
Charging and Discharging
Note that a new battery's full perfor-
mance is achieved only after two or
three complete charge and dis-
charge cycles. The operations times
provided are reasonable estimates
and may be affected by network con-
ditions, charging and phone usage.
The battery can be charged and dis-
charged hundreds of times but it will
eventually wear out. A noticeably
shorter operating time (talk-time
and standby time) may be an indica-
tion that the battery requires re-
placement.
Use only Siemens batteries and re-
charge your battery only with
Siemens chargers. When the charger
is not in use, disconnect it from the
power source. Do not leave the bat-
tery connected to a charger for long-
er than a week, since overcharging
may shorten its life. If left unused a
fully charged battery will discharge
itself over time.
If the battery is completely empty, it
may take a few minutes before you
can make or receive a call once you
plug the phone into a charger.
Temperature extremes will affect
the ability of your battery to charge:
allow it to cool down or warm up
first.
Do not short circuit the battery. Acci-
dental short-circuiting can occur
when a metallic object (coin, clip or
pen) causes direct connection of the
+ and – terminals of the battery
(metal strips on the back of the bat-
tery) for example when you carry a
spare battery in your pocket or
purse. Short-circuiting the terminals
may damage the battery or the con-
necting object.
Leaving the battery in hot or cold
places, such as in a closed car in sum-
mer or winter conditions, will reduce
the capacity and lifetime of the bat-
tery. Always try to keep the battery
between 15 °C and 25 °C (59 °F and
77 °F). A phone with a hot or cold
battery may be temporarily inopera-
ble, even when the battery is fully
charged.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire!
Explosion may result.
Note
Use the battery only for its intended pur-
pose.
Never use any charger or battery that is
damaged or worn out.
