10 Care and Maintenance

Battery and Charger Safety

S Only use batteries approved by the phone manufacturer.
S Your device is powered by a rechargeable battery. The full performance of a new

battery is achieved only aft er two or three complete charge and discharge cycles.

S The charging time depends on the charger and the battery used.
S 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.

S If unused, a fully charged battery will lose its charge.
S When the charger is not disconnecting it from the power source. Do not leave the

battery connected to the charger and power source for longer then necessary as
overcharging it will shorten its life.

S Leaving the battery in hot or cold place, such as in a closed car in summer or winter

conditions, will reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery. A device with a hot or
cold battery may not work temporarily, even when the battery is fully charged.
Battery performance is particularly limited in temperatures well below freezing.

S Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting can occur when a metallic

object such as a coin, clip, or pen causes direct connection of the positive (+) and
negative (-) terminals of the battery. (These look like metal strips on the battery.)
This might happen, for example, when you carry a spare battery in your pocket or
purse. Short-circuiting the terminals may damage the battery or the connecting
object.

S Do not dispose of the battery in a fire.

19

Phone Maintenance

Your device is a product of superior design and chairmanship and should be treated with care.
The suggestions below will help you protect your warranty coverage.

1. Keep the phone and all the parts and accessories (for example, SIM card) out
of the reach of small children.

2. Do not use or store the phone in dusty or dirty locations. Its moving parts and
electronic components can be damaged.

3. Do not use or store the phone in excessively hot places. High temperatures
will shorten the life-span of the phone, damage the battery, and warp or melt
the plastic used in the phone’s manufacture.

4. Do not store the phone in excessively cold places. When the phone returns to
its normal temperature, moisture can form inside the phone, causing damage
to the electronic circuits.

5. Do not mishandle or abuse the phone. Dropping, knocking or shaking it can
damage the internal circuits.

6. Do not use harsh chemicals, strong detergents, or cleaning solvents to clean
the phone. If you must clean it, then use a soft, clean and dry cloth.

7. Do not paint the phone. Paint can clog the moving parts and prevent proper
operation.

8. Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized
antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the device and may
violate regulations governing radio devices.

9. If the phone or any of the accessories are not working as they should, please
consult your dealer who can provide you with the expert assistance required.

All of the above suggestions apply equally to your device, battery, charger, or any
enhancement. If any device is not working properly, take it to the nearest authorized service
facility for service.
