18.Battery and charger information

Your device is powered by a rechargeable battery.
1
The battery intended for use with this device is BL-5F.
This device is intended for use when supplied with power
from the following chargers: AC-4, AC-5, AC-6, AC-8 or
DC-4 chargers. The battery can be charged and discharged
hundreds of times, but it will eventually wear out.
When the talk and standby times are noticeably shorter
than normal, replace the battery. Use only Nokia approved
batteries, and recharge your battery only with Nokia
approved chargers designated for this device. Use of an
unapproved battery or charger may present a risk of fire,
explosion, leakage, or other hazard.
If a battery is being used for the first time or if the battery
has not been used for a prolonged period, it may be
necessary to connect the charger, then disconnect and
reconnect it to begin charging the battery. If the battery is
completely discharged, it may take several minutes before
the charging indicator appears on the display or before
any calls can be made.
Always switch the device off and disconnect the charger
before removing the battery.
1. The exact model number of charger may vary depending on the type of plug.
Unplug the charger from the electrical plug and the
device when not in use. Do not leave a fully charged
battery connected to a charger, since overcharging may
shorten its lifetime. If left unused, a fully charged battery
will lose its charge over time.
Always try to keep the battery between 15°C and 25°C
(59°F and 77°F). Extreme temperatures reduce the
capacity and lifetime of the battery. A device with a hot
or cold battery may not work temporarily. Battery
performance is particularly limited in temperatures well
below freezing.
Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-
circuiting can occur when a metallic object such as a coin,
clip, or pen causes direct connection of the positive (+)
and negative (-) terminals of the battery. (These look like
metal strips on the battery.) This might happen, for
example, when you carry a spare battery in your pocket or
purse. Short-circuiting the terminals may damage the
battery or the connecting object.
