Vertu RM-389V User Manual page 9

Ba tte ry
Your device is powered by a rechargeable battery. The battery intended for
use with this device is a BL-4UV. Vertu may make additional battery models
available for this device. This device is intended for use when supplied with
power from an AC-31 charger.
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 Vertu approved batteries and
recharge your battery only with Vertu 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 take several minutes before the charging indicator
appears on the display or before any calls can be made.
Safe removal. Always switch the device off and disconnect the charger before
removing the battery.
Proper charging. 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 batter
will lose its charge over time.
Avoid extreme temperatures. 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 and the connecting
object.
Disposal. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as they may explode. Dispose of
batteries according to local regulations. Please recycle when possible. Do not
dispose as household waste.
Leak. Do not dismantle, cut, open, crush, bend, deform, puncture or shred
cells or batteries. In the event of a battery leak, prevent battery liquid contact
with the skin or eyes. If this happens, flush the affected areas immediately with
water or seek medical help.
Damage. Do not modify, remanufacture, attempt to insert foreign objects into
the battery or immerse to expose it to water or other liquids. Batteries may
explode if damaged.
Correct use. Use the battery only for its intended purpose. Improper battery
use may result in a fire, explosion or other hazard. If the device or battery is
dropped especially on a hard surface, and you believe the battery has been
damaged, take it to a service centre for inspection before continuing to use it.
Never use any charger or battery that is damaged. Keep your battery out of the
reach of small children.

Always use original Vertu batteries for your safety. To check that you are
getting an original Vertu battery, purchase it from a Vertu authorised service
centre or dealer and inspect the holospot label using the following steps:
1. When you look at the holospot on the label you should see a Vertu symbol
and three characters.
2. In the background you should see the unique holospot serial number.
Successful completion of these steps is not a total assurance of the
authenticity of the battery. If you cannot confirm authenticity or if you have any
reason to believe that your Vertu battery with the holospot on the label is not an
authentic Vertu battery, you should refrain from using it and take it to the
nearest Vertu authorised service centre or dealer for assistance.
