Chargers

It is recommended that you allow your battery to fully dis-

charge before you recharge it. Batteries last longer and

perform better if allowed to discharge fully once in a while.
Also, see “When should you charge?” on page 4.

Rapid Travel Charger (ACH-4U)
This light and compact AC

charger can be used with all

battery options.
To use the Rapid Travel

Charger, plug it into a wall

outlet and connect the lead

from the charger to the base

of your phone.
This charger can also be

used together with the Light

Desktop Charging Stand

(CHH-2L) and the Compact

Desktop Charging Stand

(CHH-2).

Rapid Cigarette Lighter Charger (LCH-2)
You can charge your

phone’s battery from your

vehicle’s battery by using

the Rapid Cigarette Lighter

Charger (LCH-2). Calls are

possible during charging.
If the charger is connected

to your phone, a red light indicates that your phone is

charging. A green light means your phone is either finished

charging or it is in trickle charge. When the charger is not

connected to your phone, the green light means it is ready

for charging. The battery charging times are the same as

those for the Rapid Travel Charger (ACH-4U).
The input voltage range is from 10 to 30V DC, negative

grounding. Avoid prolonged charging with the Rapid Cig-

arette Lighter Charger (LCH-2) when the car engine is not

running; this may cause the battery of your car to drain.

Note also that in some cars the cigarette lighter plug is not

provided with electricity if the ignition is not switched on.

Fuse Replacement
The Rapid Cigarette Lighter Charger contains a protective

fuse. The fuse is located in the charger tip. If the charger

does not work, the fuse may be blown, in which case re-

place it with a 3 amp. 250 volt fuse. Never use a fuse with

a higher rating.

Compact Desktop Charging Stand
(CHH-2)
The Compact Desktop Charging

Stand (CHH-2) allows you to place

both the phone and a spare battery

for charging at the same time in the

stand. It is compatible with all bat-

tery options.
The charger starts to charge the spare battery as soon as

it has finished charging the phone battery.

Connect the Rapid Travel Charger (ACH-4U) to the stand,

and then plug the Rapid Travel Charger into a wall outlet.

Place the phone and/or the spare battery in the stand.
To discharge the spare battery, press the blue button on

the stand. When the battery is totally discharged, recharg-

ing starts automatically. (If you wish to stop discharging,

press the button again to start the charging right away.)

Only the spare battery can be discharged.
The blinking red light indicates discharging, the continuous

red light indicates recharging and the green light indicates

trickle charging. The phone is ready for use when the

green light appears (check the charge on the phone

display).

Light Desktop Charging Stand (CHH-2L)
The Light Desktop Charging

Stand (CHH-2L) offers support

for the phone during charging.

Used together with the Rapid

Travel Charger (ACH-4U), this

drop-in stand is an economical

choice when you need your

phone close at hand, always ready for calls.
Charging is indicated by the scrolling battery bars on the

right side of the phone’s display. Charging is finished when

the scrolling stops.
Note: The Light Desktop Charging Stand (CHH-2L) may

not be available in all markets. Please consult your dealer

for more information on availability.
