If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself over time.
Use only approved batteries and recharge your battery only with approved chargers.
When a charger is not in use, disconnect it from the power source. Do not leave the
battery connected to a charger for more than a week, since overcharging may shorten its
life.
Extreme temperatures will affect the charging capacity of your battery: it may require
cooling or warming first.
Do not leave the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a car in summer or winter
conditions, as you will reduce the capacity and life-time of the battery. Always try to keep
the battery at room temperature. A phone with a hot or cold battery may temporarily not
work, even when the battery is fully charged. Li-ion batteries are particularly affected by
temperatures below 0 C (32 F).
Accidental short circuiting can occur when a metallic object (coin, clip or pen)causes a
direct connection between the + and - terminals of the battery (metal strips on the back of
the battery), for example when you carry a spare battery in a pocket or bag. Short-
circuiting the terminals may damage the battery or the object causing the short-circuit.
Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local regulations. Always recycle. Do not
dispose of batteries in a fire.
