About the Battery Usage
Your phone is powered by a Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery. This

x Do not disassemble, open, crush, bend, deform, puncture
or break up a battery.

hazard.
x Dispose of and recycle used batteries in accordance with
local regulations. Do not dispose of batteries by burning as
they may explode. Do not use an unauthorized charger or
battery.
x Do not put your battery into contact with conductive
objects.
x Dispose of and recycle used batteries in accordance with

they may explode.
x Do not use an unauthorized charger.
x Only use the battery with a charging device that has been
authorized for use with the device according to IEEEStd-1725-2006. Use of an unauthorized or non-standard
battery or charger may present a risk of fire, explosion,
leakage, or other hazard.
x Do not short circuit a battery or allow metallic conductive
objects to contact the battery terminals.
x Replace the battery only with another battery that has been
authorized for use with the device according to IEEEStd-1725-2006.

more battery power will be consumed to maintain the
connection.
x Battery recharging time varies depending on the remaining
battery capacity and the battery and charger type you use.

READ THIS FIRST
x Battery life inevitably shortens over time.
x Overcharging may shorten the battery’s life. Therefore,
remove the phone from its charger once it is fully charged
and unplug the charger. Avoid leaving the battery in hot
or cold places, such as inside a car in summer or winter, as
this may reduce the capacity and life of the battery. Always
store the battery within normal operating temperatures.
