• DYNAMIC MEMORY USE
Some features in your Nokia 6340i phone use a common pool of memory
(storage capacity) called dynamic memory. When any of these features is
used, there is less available memory for other features, which are also
dependent on dynamic memory. This is especially true with heavy use.
For example, entering a large number of Phone book entries may use most
of the available dynamic memory. Consequently, if you attempt to create
a calendar note or save a business card, your phone may display a message
saying Memory Full. To proceed, you would need to delete some of the
information or entries occupying the available dynamic memory.
• ABOUT THE ANTENNA
Your phone has a built-in antenna.
As with any other radio transmitting
device, avoid touching the antenna
while the phone is powered up.
Contact with the antenna affects
call quality and may cause the
phone to operate at a higher
power level than necessary.

IMPORTANT BATTERY INFORMATION
Important:
Use only batteries approved by Nokia and recharge your battery only with
the chargers approved by Nokia. Never use any charger or battery which
is damaged.
The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times but it will
eventually wear out. When the operating time (talk-time and standby
time) is noticeably shorter than normal, it is time to buy a new battery.
The BLB-3 battery doesn't need a full discharge before recharging.
PROLONG THE BATTERY
Use the following guidelines to obtain the best performance from
your battery:
•With your phone turned off, charge your new battery for three hours
before its first use. Use the battery until it is fully discharged. Repeat
this procedure twice for a total of three charging cycles.
•Note that a new battery's full performance is achieved only after two
or three complete charge and discharge cycles. Battery operation
time may be less than the estimated times during the first charges.
This condition is normal.
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery.
Battery full
[ 11 ]
•You can use your phone while the battery is charging. However, if the
battery is completely empty, it may need to recharge a few minutes
before you can make or receive calls or the battery indicator appears.
•After the first charge, you can make and receive calls during the
charging cycle, but the calls interrupt the charge. When the phone
call ends, the charge will resume.
•The bars on the screen stop scrolling and remain constant when the
phone is fully charged. If you leave the phone connected to the
charger, the battery receives an additional charge. If you switch the
phone on when charging is complete, the message
momentarily appears in the display.
The battery will accept a "trickle charge" for an additional
Note:
two hours.
Charging time depends on the charger and battery. For example, charging
time for the BLB-3 battery with the ACP-7U charger is about 4 hours.
