GENERAL INFORMATION
Battery care
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery.
• The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times
but it will eventually wear out. When the operating time (talk-time
and standby time) is noticeably shorter than normal, you should
buy a new battery.
• Unplug the charger when not in use. Do not leave the battery
connected to a charger for longer than a week, since
overcharging may shorten its lifetime.
• If left unused, a fully charged battery may discharge itself over
time.
• Temperature extremes can affect the ability of your battery to
charge.
• Do not use a charger or battery that is damaged in any way.
• Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
• Do not leave the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a car in
summer or winter.
• Do not short-circuit the battery. Short-circuiting the terminals may
damage the battery or the connecting object.
• Dispose of batteries according to local regulations. Always
recycle.
• In addition to the rechargable battery your phone is fitted with an
internal battery that can only be replaced by a qualified service
engineer. There is a risk of explosion if the battery is replaced
with an incorrect type of battery. Dispose of the used battery in
accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
