Batteries and chargers
Battery and charger info
Use your device only with an original BL-5C
rechargeable battery. Nokia may make
additional battery models available for this
device.
Charge your device with: AC-11charger.
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.
Important: Talk and standby times are
estimates only. Actual times are affected by,
for example, network conditions, device
settings, features being used, battery
condition, and temperature.
Battery safety
Always switch the device off and unplug the
charger before removing the battery. To
unplug a charger or an accessory, hold and
pull the plug, not the cord.
When your charger is not in use, unplug it. Do
not leave a fully charged battery connected
to a charger, as overcharging may shorten
the battery's lifetime. If left unused, a fully
charged battery will lose its charge over time.
Always 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.
Accidental short-circuiting can happen when
a metallic object touches the metal strips on
the battery. This may damage the battery or
the other object.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as they
may explode. Obey local regulations. Recycle
when possible. Do not dispose as household
waste.
Do not dismantle, cut, crush, bend, puncture,
or otherwise damage the battery in any way.
If a battery leaks, do not let liquid touch skin
or eyes. If this happens, immediately flush
the affected areas with water, or seek
medical help. Do not modify, attempt to
insert foreign objects into the battery, or
immerse or expose it to water or other
liquids. Batteries may explode if damaged.
Use the battery and charger for their
intended purposes only. Improper use, or use
of unapproved or incompatible batteries or
chargers may present a risk of fire,
explosion, or other hazard, and may
invalidate any approval or warranty. If you
believe the battery or charger is damaged,
take it to a service centre before continuing
to use it. Never use a damaged battery or
charger. Only use the charger indoors.
