Battery Use
The following topics explain how to insert and remove your phone’s battery.
Battery Cautions
Storage
: Avoid storing or leaving battery with no charge remaining. Saved information and settings
may become lost or changed, or battery may become unusable. Charge once every six months
before storing or leaving unused for a long period.
Bulges
: Depending on use, bulges may appear near end of battery life. This does not affect safety.
Replacing Battery
: The battery is a consumable item. It needs to be replaced if operating time
shortens noticeably. Purchase a new battery.
Cleaning
: Clean soiled terminals between battery and phone with a clean, dry cotton swab. Soiled
terminals can result in a poor connection and prevent charging, etc.
