Protecting Your Battery

The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery’s performance.

Recently there have been some public reports of wireless phone batteries overheating, catching fire, or exploding. It appears that many, if not all, of these reports involve counterfeit or inexpensive, aftermarket-brand batteries with unknown or questionable manufacturing standards. Use only manufacturer-approved batteries and accessories found at Carrier Stores or through your device’s manufacturer. Buying the right batteries and accessories is the best way to ensure they're genuine and safe.

⬤In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that range from 32° F to 122° F (0° C to 50° C).

⬤Don’t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity areas, such as the bathroom.

⬤Never dispose of the battery by incineration.

⬤Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.

⬤Don't attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.
