14.2 Phone care
You should never attempt to open the
phone casing. There are no user-serviceable
parts inside and you might damage sensitive
electronic circuits and components.
Unauthorized disassembly will void the
warranty.
You should never leave your phone in the
window of your car or otherwise expose it
to strong sunlight or excessive heat for a
prolonged period. This may damage it.
You should never handle your phone with
wet hands or expose it to moisture or liquids
of any kind. Continuous changes from a
cold to a warm environment may lead to
condensation inside the phone, resulting in
corrosion and possible damage.
If you pack your phone in your suitcase
during travel, beware damage. Cramming
a suitcase may crack the LCD display.
Remember to switch off your wireless
connections during air travel.
As with all other radio devices, touching
the built-in antenna area during telephone
conversation may impair the quality and lead
to shorter standby time due to increased
power consumption.
The battery
Your phone is equipped with a high-
performance Li-Ion battery. Observe the
maintenance guidelines and your battery
should give you a long service life.
•
At the beginning of the battery’s life, fully
charge and discharge (let it go
fl at) three
