Make sure you use a compatible USB charger to charge your phone. The charger may be sold separately.

1. Plug the charger into a wall outlet. If necessary, connect the USB cable to the charger.

2. Connect the micro-USB end of the charger's cable to your phone.

Page 11

If the battery is completely discharged, it may take up to 20 minutes before the charging indicator is displayed.

Tip: You can use USB charging when a wall outlet is not available. Data can

be transferred while charging the device. The efficiency of USB charging power varies significantly, and it may take a long time for charging to start and the device to start functioning.

Make sure your computer is switched on.

First connect the USB cable to the computer, then to your phone. When the battery is full, first disconnect the USB cable from your phone, then from the computer.

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.

Page 12

Charge your phone wirelessly

No need for hassle with cables, just pop your device on a wireless charger, and it immediately starts charging.

You may need a wireless charging cover for wireless charging to work. The cover may be included in the sales box, or it may be sold separately. Only use original Lumia wireless charging covers designed for your phone.

Wireless chargers are sold separately.

The charging areas on the phone and the charger need to touch, so make sure you align the phone and charger properly. Not all phone models fit in all chargers.

1. Make sure the wireless charger is switched on.

2. If your phone needs a wireless charging cover, make sure it’s properly attached

to your phone.

3. Place your phone on the wireless charger so that the charging areas touch.

4. When the battery is full, remove your phone from the charger.

Warning: Make sure there’s nothing between the charger and the device.

Do not attach any objects, such as stickers, on the device surface near the charging area.

For more info on wireless charging, see the user guide of your charger and wireless charging cover.

Connect the headset

Enjoy your favorite music, or free your hands for other things when in a call.

The headset may be sold separately.

Connect the headset to your phone.

Positioning methods

Your phone shows your location on the map using GPS, GLONASS, A-GPS, 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 Microsoft Mobile Privacy Policy.

The Assisted GPS (A-GPS) network service and other similar enhancements to GPS and GLONASS retrieve location info using the cellular network, and assists in calculating your current location.

A-GPS and other enhancements to GPS and GLONASS 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.

Note: Using Wi-Fi may be restricted in some countries. For example, in the

EU, you are only allowed to use 5150–5350 MHz Wi-Fi indoors, and in the USA and Canada, you are only allowed to use 5.15–5.25 GHz Wi-Fi indoors. For more info, contact your local authorities.

The trip meter may not be accurate, depending on the availability and quality of your satellite connection.
