3. Battery information

■ Charging and discharging

Nokia Kaleidoscope I is powered by a rechargeable battery.

Note that a new battery's full performance 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 operating time is noticeably shorter than normal, it is time to buy a new battery.

Use only batteries approved by the phone manufacturer and recharge your battery only with the chargers approved by the manufacturer. Unplug the charger when not in use. Do not leave the battery connected to a charger. Overcharging may shorten its lifetime. If left unused a fully charged battery will discharge itself over time.

Temperature extremes can affect the ability of your battery to charge.

Use the battery only for its intended purpose.

Never use any charger or battery which is damaged.

Leaving Nokia Kaleidoscope I 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). Nokia Kaleidoscope I with a hot or cold battery may temporarily not work, even when the battery is fully charged. Batteries' performance is particularly limited in temperatures well below freezing.

Do not dispose of Nokia Kaleidoscope I in a fire!

If you need to remove or change the battery for some reason, contact the qualified service personnel to do that for you. Do not attempt to do it yourself. For environmentally sound discarding of the device, contact your local Nokia service point or check local regulations.
