19. Battery information
■ Charging and discharging
Your device is powered by a rechargeable battery. The full performance of a
new battery is achieved only after two or three complete charge and discharge
cycles. The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times, but it
will eventually wear out. When the talk and standby times are noticeably
shorter than normal, replace the battery. Use only Nokia approved batteries,
and recharge your battery only with Nokia approved chargers designated for
this device.
If a replacement battery is being used for the first time or if the battery has
not been used for a prolonged period, it may be necessary to connect the
charger and then disconnect and reconnect it to start the charging.
Unplug the charger from the electrical plug and the device when not in use.
Do not leave fully charged battery connected to a charger, since overcharging
may shorten its lifetime. If left unused, a fully charged battery will lose its
charge over time.
If the battery is completely discharged, it may take a few minutes before the
charging indicator appears on the display or before any calls can be made.
Use the battery only for its intended purpose. Never use any charger or battery
that is damaged.
Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting can occur when a
metallic object such as a coin, clip, or pen causes direct connection of the
positive (+) and negative (-) terminals of the battery. (These look like metal
strips on the battery.) This might happen, for example, when you carry a spare
battery in your pocket or purse. Short-circuiting the terminals may damage
the battery or the connecting object.
Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a closed car in summer or
winter conditions, will reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always
try to keep the battery between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F). A device with
a hot or cold battery may not work temporarily, even when the battery is fully
charged. Battery performance is particularly limited in temperatures well
below freezing.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as they may explode. Batteries may also
explode if damaged. Dispose of batteries according to local regulations. Please
recycle when possible. Do not dispose as household waste.
