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 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. 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 the 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 centre 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.
Important: Talk and standby times are estimates only. Actual performance depends on many factors such as network
conditions, device settings selected, device features being used (or running in the background), battery condition and ambient
temperature. Making calls with the device affects the standby time and the amount of time in standby mode affects the talk
time.
Taking care of your device
Your device is a product of superior design and craftsmanship and should be treated with care. The following suggestions will
help you protect your warranty coverage.
Keep the device dry. Precipitation, humidity, and all types of liquids or moisture can contain minerals that will corrode
•
electronic circuits. If your device does get wet, remove the battery, and allow the device to dry completely before replacing
it.
Do not use or store the device in dusty, dirty areas. Its moving parts and electronic components can be damaged.
•
Do not store the device in high or cold temperature. High temperatures can shorten the life of electronic devices, damage
•
batteries, and warp or melt certain plastics. When the device warms to its normal temperature from a cold temperature,
moisture can form inside the device and damage electronic circuit boards.
Do not attempt to open the device other than as instructed in this guide.
•
Do not drop, knock, or shake the device. Rough handling can break internal circuit boards and fine mechanics.
