Getting the most from your battery
> You can recharge your battery several hundred
times before it will need replacing and you don’t
need to fully discharge it before recharging.
> Don’t expose the battery charger to direct sunlight
or use in areas of high humidity such as a
bathroom. Battery life will decrease if you expose it
to temperatures below -10°C or above 45°C.
> If you charge your battery regularly and you notice
a decrease in talk time or an increase in charging
time, then it’s probably time to buy a new battery.
