Leaving the battery 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). A phone 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 batteries in a fire!

Dispose of batteries according to applicable local regulations (for example, recycling). Do not dispose of as household waste.

Note: For information on how to charge and recharge your battery, refer to “Important battery information” on page 10.

• PROPER CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Your phone is a product of superior design and craftsmanship and should be treated with care. The suggestions below will help you to fulfill any warranty obligations and to enjoy this product for many years:

Keep the phone and all its parts and accessories out of the reach of small children.

Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity and all types of liquids or moisture can contain minerals that will corrode electronic circuits.

Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty areas. Its moving parts can be damaged.

Do not store the phone in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the life of electronic devices, damage batteries, and warp or melt certain plastics.

Do not store the phone in cold areas. When it warms up (to its normal temperature), moisture can form inside and may damage electronic circuit boards.

Do not attempt to open the phone. Non-expert handling may damage it.

Do not drop, knock, or shake the phone. Rough handling can break internal circuit boards.

Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the phone.
