info can be attached to a photo or video, if your location can be determined using satellite or
network technology. If you share a photo or video that contains location info, the location info
may be shown to those who view the photo or video. Some apps can use your location info to
offer you a wider variety of services.
Switch on location services
Your phone shows your location on the map using a satellite positioning system, Wi-Fi, or
network (Cell ID) based positioning.
The availability, accuracy and completeness of the location info depend on, for example,
your location, surroundings, and third party sources, and may be limited. Location
info may not be available, for example, inside buildings or underground. For privacy
info related to positioning methods, see the HMD Global Privacy Policy, available at
http://www.nokia.com/phones/privacy.
Some satellite positioning systems may require transferring small amounts of data over the
mobile network. If you want to avoid data costs, for example when traveling, you can switch the
mobile data connection off in your phone settings.
Wi-Fi positioning improves positioning accuracy when satellite signals are not available,
especially when you are indoors or between tall buildings. If you’re in a place where the use of
Wi-Fi is restricted, you can switch Wi-Fi off in your phone settings.
Tap Settings > Security & location , and switch Location on.

collection at the end of their working life. Do not dispose of these products as unsorted
municipal waste: take them for recycling. For info on your nearest recycling point, check with
your local waste authority.
BATTERY AND CHARGER INFORMATION
Battery and charger info
To check if your phone has a removable or non-removable battery, see the Get started guide.
Devices with a removable battery Use your device only with an original rechargeable battery.
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.
Devices with a non-removable battery Do not attempt to remove the battery, as you may
damage the device. To replace the battery, take the device to the nearest authorized service
facility.
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, to replace the battery,
take the device to the nearest authorized service facility.
Charge your device with the provided charger. Charger plug type may vary. Charging time can
vary depending on device capability.
Battery and charger safety info
Once charging of your device is complete, unplug the charger from the device and electrical
outlet. Please note that continuous charging should not exceed 12 hours. If left unused, a fully
charged battery will lose its charge over time.
Extreme temperatures reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always keep the
battery between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F) for optimal performance. A device with a

hot or cold battery may not work temporarily. Note that the battery may drain quickly in cold
temperatures and lose enough power to switch off the phone within minutes. When you are
outdoors in cold temperatures, keep your phone warm.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as they may explode. Obey local regulations. Recycle when
possible. Do not dispose as household waste.
Do not dismantle, cut, crush, bend, puncture, or otherwise damage the battery in any way.
If a battery leaks, do not let liquid touch skin or eyes. If this happens, immediately flush the
affected areas with water, or seek medical help. Do not modify, attempt to insert foreign
objects into the battery, or immerse or expose it to water or other liquids. Batteries may
explode if damaged.
Use the battery and charger for their intended purposes only. Improper use, or use of
unapproved or incompatible batteries or chargers may present a risk of fire, explosion, or other
hazard, and may invalidate any approval or warranty. If you believe the battery or charger is
damaged, take it to a service centre or your phone dealer before continuing to use it. Never
use a damaged battery or charger. Only use the charger indoors. Do not charge your device
during a lightning storm.
Additionally, the following applies if your device has a removable battery:
• Always switch the device off and unplug the charger before removing the battery. To unplug
a charger or an accessory, hold and pull the plug, not the cord.
• Accidental short-circuiting can happen when a metallic object touches the metal strips on
the battery. This may damage the battery or the other object.

sites.
VEHICLES
Radio signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in
vehicles. For more info, check with the manufacturer of your vehicle or its equipment. Only
authorized personnel should install the device in a vehicle. Faulty installation may be dangerous
and invalidate your warranty. Check regularly that all wireless device equipment in your vehicle

is mounted and operating properly. Do not store or carry flammable or explosive materials in
the same compartment as the device, its parts, or accessories. Do not place your device or
accessories in the air bag deployment area.
POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE ENVIRONMENTS
Switch your device off in potentially explosive environments, such as near gasoline pumps.
Sparks may cause an explosion or fire resulting in injury or death. Note restrictions in areas
with fuel; chemical plants; or where blasting operations are in progress. Areas with a potentially
explosive environment may not be clearly marked. These usually are areas where you are
advised to switch your engine off, below deck on boats, chemical transfer or storage facilities,
and where the air contains chemicals or particles. Check with the manufacturers of vehicles
using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane) if this device can be safely used in
their vicinity.
CERTIFICATION AND CONSUMER INFORMATION
This mobile device meets guidelines for exposure to radio waves.
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits
for exposure to radio waves (radio frequency electromagnetic fields), recommended by
international guidelines from the independent scientific organization ICNIRP. These guidelines
incorporate substantial safety margins that are intended to assure the protection of all
persons regardless of age and health. The exposure guidelines are based on the Specific
Absorption Rate (SAR), which is an expression of the amount of radio frequency (RF) power
deposited in the head or body when the device is transmitting. The ICNIRP SAR limit for mobile
devices is 2.0 W/kg averaged over 10 grams of tissue.
SAR tests are carried out with the device in standard operating positions, transmitting at its
highest certified power level, in all its frequency bands.
Please refer to www.nokia.com/phones/sar for the maximum SAR value of the device.
This device meets RF exposure guidelines when used against the head or when positioned
at least 5/8 inch (1.5 centimetres) away from the body. When a carry case, belt clip or other
form of device holder is used for body-worn operation, it should not contain metal and should
provide at least the above stated separation distance from the body.
To send data or messages, a good connection to the network is needed. Sending may be
delayed until such a connection is available. Follow the separation distance instructions until
the sending is finished.
During general use, the SAR values are usually well below the values stated above. This is
because, for purposes of system efficiency and to minimize interference on the network, the
operating power of your mobile is automatically decreased when full power is not needed for
the call. The lower the power output, the lower the SAR value.
Device models may have different versions and more than one value. Component and design
changes may occur over time and some changes could affect SAR values.

For more info, go to www.sar-tick.com. Note that mobile devices may be transmitting even if
you are not making a voice call.
The World Health Organization (WHO) has stated that current scientific information does not
indicate the need for any special precautions when using mobile devices. If you are interested
in reducing your exposure, they recommend you limit your usage or use a hands-free kit to
keep the device away from your head and body. For more information and explanations and
discussions on RF exposure, go to the WHO website at www.who.int/peh-emf/en.
