Charging the battery
Use only chargers approved by the communicator
manufacturer for charging a Lithium-Ion battery.
The communicator can be used during charging.
To charge a battery with the adapter and a charger:
1
Install the battery.
2
Attach the adapter to the bottom of the com-
municator as shown in figure 2-7. Insert the
curved pin into the right-hand side aperture
at the end of the communicator. Push the left

municator until the left locking pin engages.
(If you try to force the adapter into place up-
side down, you may accidentally break off the
curved guiding pin.)
3
Connect the charger lead to the adapter, as
shown in figure 2-8.
4
Connect the charger to an AC wall outlet. If
the phone interface is switched on, the
CHARGING message appears on the display
and segments of the battery indicator bar on
the right side of the phone interface display
will start scrolling. (Charging information is
also shown on the communicator interface
display, see ”Indicators” on page 2-9.)
5
When the battery is fully charged (the bars stop
scrolling and five bars are displayed), you may
remove the adapter from the communicator:
Hold down the release button on the left side
of the adapter (see figure 2-7), and turn the
adapter away from the communicator.
When the charge is low and only a few minutes
of operation time remain, a warning tone will be
heard, and the message BATTERY LOW will be re-
peated at regular intervals on the display. When
the charge level becomes too low for operation,
the RECHARGE BATTERY message will be dis-
played, accompanied by a warning tone. If you do
not connect the communicator to a charger, the
communicator automatically switches itself off.
Note: If the tones have been switched off (see
chapter 4 "Telephone: Telephone settings
- Ringing settings" on page 4-6), only the
display messages will appear.
