Nokia 3588i User Manual page 113

Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting
can occur when a metallic object (coin, clip, or pen) causes
direct connection of the positive (+) and negative (-)
terminals (metal contacts) of the battery, such as when you
carry a spare battery in your pocket or purse. Short-
circuiting the terminals may damage the battery or the
connecting object.
