19 Reference information

This section provides information about
your phone's batteries, enhancements,
chargers, safety guidelines and technical
information. Be aware that the
information in this section is subject to
change as batteries, chargers, and
enhancements change.
• BATTERIES AND
CHARGERS
Your device is powered by a rechargeable
battery. The full performance of a new
battery is achieved only after two or
three complete charge and discharge
cycles. 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, buy a new battery. Use only
Nokia approved batteries, and recharge
your battery only with Nokia approved
chargers designated for this device.
Unplug the charger from the electrical
plug and the device when not in use. Do
not leave the battery connected to a
charger after the battery has finished
charging. Overcharging may shorten its
lifetime. If left unused, a fully charged
battery will lose its charge over time.
Temperature extremes can affect the
ability of your battery to charge.
Use the battery only for its intended
purpose. Never use any charger or battery
that is damaged.
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 or the connecting
object.
Leaving the battery in hot or cold places,
such as in a closed car in summer or
winter conditions, will reduce the
capacity and lifetime of the battery.
Always try to keep the battery between
59°F and 77°F (15°C and 25°C). A device
with a hot or cold battery may not work
temporarily, even when the battery is
fully charged. Battery performance is
particularly limited in temperatures well
below freezing.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire!
Dispose of batteries according to local
regulations. Please recycle when
possible. Do not dispose as household
waste.
