Charging the battery
1. Connect the AC power adaptor to the Power socket on the handheld and then connect the adaptor
to mains power. An international adaptor kit is provided with the handheld.
2. Check that the Notification LED on the handheld is solid orange, indicating that the handheld is
properly connected to the power source and the battery is charging.
Fully charging the battery from empty takes approximately four hours.
The Notification LED on the handheld indicates the battery power or charging status, and operating
system notifications, as shown below:

discharge through normal use.
