Do not short circuit the battery. Acci-
dental short-circuiting can occur
when a metallic object (coin, clip or
pen) causes direct connection of the
+ and – terminals of the battery
(metal strips on the back of the bat-
tery) for example when you carry a
spare battery in your pocket or
purse. Short-circuiting the terminals
may damage the battery or the con-
necting object.
Leaving the battery in hot or cold
places, such as in a closed car in sum-
mer or winter conditions, will reduce
the capacity and lifetime of the bat-
tery. Always try to keep the battery
between 15 °C and 25 °C (59 °F and
77 °F). A phone with a hot or cold
battery may be temporarily inopera-
ble, even when the battery is fully
charged.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire!
Explosion may result.
Batteries must be disposed of prop-
erly. Comply with all local laws or
regulations in disposing of your
battery.
Charge icon not visible
If the battery has been fully dis-
charged, the charge icon is not
immediately visible when the power
supply unit is plugged in. It will
appear after up to two hours. In this
case the battery will be fully charged
after 3–4 hours.
Only use the power supply unit provided!
Display while in service
Charge level display during opera-
tion (empty – full):
a d g
A beep sounds when the battery is
nearly discharged. The charge level
of the battery is only displayed cor-
rectly after an uninterrupted charg-
ing/discharging cycle. You should
therefore
not remove the battery unnec-
essarily
and where possible
not termi-
nate the charging process prematurely.
Note
Use the battery only for its intended
purpose.
Never use any charger or battery that is
damaged or worn out.
Additional information
The power supply unit heats up when used
for long periods. This is normal and not
dangerous.
If the battery is removed for longer than
30 seconds, the clock will be reset.
