Battery Safety Guidelines

Do not disassemble or open the battery.
•
Do not crush, bend, deform, puncture, or
•
shred the battery.
Do not attempt to insert foreign objects into
•
the battery.
Do not immerse the battery or expose it to
•
water or other liquids. Even if a battery
appears to dry out and operate normally,
internal parts can slowly corrode and pose a
safety hazard.
Always keep the battery between 15°C and
•
25°C (59°F and 77°F). Do not expose the
battery to extremes of temperature (heat or
cold), fire, or other hazards such as a
cooking surface, iron, or radiator.
Never use any damaged battery.
•
Only use the battery for its intended phone.
•
Only use the battery with a qualified charger.
•
Use of an unqualified battery charger may
present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or
other hazard. If you are unsure about
whether a charger is qualified, contact
customer support.
Do not short-circuit the battery or allow
•
metallic conductive objects—such as
keys, coins, or jewelry—to contact the
battery's terminals.
10
Replace the battery only with another
•
qualified battery. Use of an unqualified
battery may present a risk of fire, explosion,
leakage, or other hazard. If you are unsure
about whether a replacement battery is
compatible, contact customer support.
Promptly dispose of used batteries in
•
accordance with local regulations and
recycle if possible. Do not dispose as
household waste.
Supervise all battery usage by children.
•
Avoid dropping the phone or battery. If the
•
phone or battery is dropped, especially on
a hard surface, an internal short-circuit
can occur and pose a safety hazard. If you
suspect battery damage, take it to a service
center for inspection.
Improper battery use may result in a fire,
•
explosion, or other hazard.
