I Charging and discharging
Nokia Medallion II is powered by a rechargeable Li-Ion battery.
Note that a new battery's full performance is achieved only after two or
three complete charge and discharge cycles!
The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times but it will
eventually wear out. When the operating time is noticeably shorter than
normal, it is time to buy a new battery.
Use only batteries approved by the phone manufacturer and recharge
your battery only with the chargers approved by the manufacturer.
Unplug the charger when not in use. Do not leave Nokia Medallion II
connected to a charger for longer than a week, since overcharging may
shorten its lifetime. If left unused a fully charged battery will discharge
itself over time.
Temperature extremes can affect the ability of your battery to charge.
Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
Never use any charger or battery which is damaged.
Leaving Nokia Medallion II in hot or cold places, such as in a closed car
in summer or winter conditions, will reduce the capacity and lifetime of
the battery. Always try to keep the battery between 15°C and 25°C (59°F
and 77°F). Nokia Medallion II with a hot or cold battery may temporarily
not work, even when the battery is fully charged. Batteries' performance
is particularly limited in temperatures well below freezing.
Do not dispose of Nokia Medallion II in a fire!
If you need to remove or change the battery for some reason, contact
the qualified service personnel to do that for you. Do not attempt to do
it yourself. For environmentally sound recycling, contact your local
Nokia service point or check local regulations for the correct discarding
of Nokia Medallion II (including its battery).
