58 Product and safety information
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.
