Battery and charger information

Your device is powered by a rechargeable battery. The battery intended for use with
this device is BP-4L. Nokia may make additional battery models available for this
device. This device is intended for use when supplied with power from the following
chargers: AC-8. 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, K, or
UB.
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.
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.
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 battery will lose
its charge over time.
Avoid extreme temperatures. Always try to keep the battery between 59°F and 77°F
(15°C and 25°C). 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. 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.

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, puncture, or shred cells or batteries.
In the event of a battery leak, prevent battery liquid contact with 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 or 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 center 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.
