The Basics
Tip: When you
charge the main and
an auxiliary battery,
the main battery will
be charged first.
Using the Desktop Charger
The desktop charger’s front pocket can charge batteries while
they are attached to your phone, and the rear pocket can
charge batteries separately.
First plug the AC adapter into the back of the charger, with
the release tab facing up. Plug the other end of the AC adapter
into an AC wall socket, and you can begin charging your
batteries. With battery(s) attached, place the phone into the
charger’s front pocket. You can also charge an extra auxiliary
or main battery in the rear pocket as shown:
Front Pocket Rear Pocket
Desktop Charger and Internal Charging Time
The phone’s batteries charge in about one to two hours,
individually, depending on the battery. Allow extra time if
you are charging more than one battery.

Note: The detachable plug assembly included with your
package can only be used for this power supply. Do not
plug it into any wall outlet without the power supply.
Using the Internal Charger
Believe it or not, there’s a battery charger built right into
your phone! Using either the AC adapter or cigarette lighter
adapter, you can plug your phone directly into a power
supply and charge attached batteries—whether the phone
is ON or OFF. When the internal charger is in use, and the
phone is ON, you can still place and receive calls. Just
remember, talking on the phone requires energy, so
charging will take more time.
1. Plug the AC adapter or cigarette lighter adapter into the
accessory connector on the bottom of your phone as
shown, with the release tab facing up.
2. Plug the adapter into the appropriate power source.
In some cars, the ignition must be ON to use the
cigarette lighter.
What you will see when charging:
While your phone is charging, regardless of whether your
phone is turned ON or OFF, the battery icon will flash.
When both batteries are fully charged the battery icon will
cease flashing and become solid.
