Battery and charger information

Battery and charger
information
Your device is powered by a rechargeable battery.
The battery intended for use with this device is
BL-5K. This device is intended for use when supplied
with power from the following chargers: AC-10,
DC-6, DC-10. 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.
The exact charger model number may vary
depending on the type of plug. The plug variant is
identified by one of the following: E, EB, X, AR, U, A,
C, or UB. For example, the model numbers for the
charger can be, among others, AC-10 etc.
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.
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.
