Battery and charger

information

Your device is powered by a rechargeable battery. The
battery intended for use with this device is BP-4L. Nokia
may make additional battery models available for this
device. This device is intended for use when supplied with
power from the following chargers: AC-10. The exact
charger model number may vary depending on the type
of plug. The plug variant is identified by one of the
following: E, EB, X, AR, U, A, C, or UB.
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. Use only Nokia approved batteries, and
recharge your battery only with Nokia approved chargers
designated for this device. Use of an unapproved battery
or charger may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage,
or other hazard.
If a battery is being used for the first time or if the battery
has not been used for a prolonged period, it may be
necessary to connect the charger, then disconnect and
reconnect it to begin charging the battery. If the battery
is completely discharged, it may take several minutes
before the charging indicator appears on the display or
before any calls can be made.
Always switch the device off and disconnect the charger
before removing the battery.
Unplug the charger from the electrical plug and the device
when not in use. Do not leave a fully charged battery
connected to a charger, since overcharging may shorten
its lifetime. If left unused, a fully charged battery will lose
its charge over time.
Always try to keep the battery between 15°C and 25°C
(59°F and 77°F). Extreme temperatures reduce the
capacity and lifetime of the battery. A device with a hot or
cold battery may not work temporarily. Battery
performance is particularly limited in temperatures well
below freezing.
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.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as they may explode.
Batteries may also explode if damaged. Dispose of
batteries according to local regulations. Please recycle
when possible. Do not dispose as household waste.
Do not dismantle, cut, open, crush, bend, deform,
puncture, or shred cells or batteries. In the event of a
battery leak, do not allow the liquid to come in contact
with the skin or eyes. In the event of such a leak, flush your
skin or eyes immediately with water, or seek medical help.
