of any other types may invalidate any approval or warranty applying to the phone, and may be dangerous.

Do not charge the battery when either of your phone’s covers are removed.

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

Your phone is not water resistant.

Keep it dry. Precipitation, humidity and all types of liquids or moisture cancontain minerals that will corrode electronic circuits.

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

Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery. Note that a new battery’s full performance may only be achieved after

two or three complete charge and discharge cycles.

The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times but it will eventually wear out. When the operating time (talk time and standby time) is noticeably shorter than normal, it is time to buy a new battery.

Temperature extremes may affect the ability of your battery to charge: allow it to cool down or warm up first.

Never use any charger or battery which is damaged or worn out.

Always unplug the charger when not in use. Do not leave the batteries connected to the charger for longer than a week, since overcharging may shorten its lifetime. If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself over time.

Do not paint your phone as this can clog its moving parts and prevent operation.

Only use the antenna supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorised antennae, modifications or attachments could damage the phone and may violate regulations governing use of mobile phones.

Keep all SIM Cards out of children’s reach.

Use your phone battery only for its intended purpose, and never use any charger or battery which is damaged or worn out.

Never allow the battery terminals to short circuit, as this can cause damage to the battery or to the connecting object (a short circuit can occur if a metallic object such as a coin, clip or pen causes direct connection between the + and -

terminals of the battery). Therefore, always take adequate precautions when carrying a spare battery in a purse

or pocket.

Batteries must be recycled or disposed of properly and according to your local regulations, and must never be disposed of in household waste. Never dispose of batteries in a fire.

When you disconnect the power cord of any accessory, including the charger, grasp and pull the plug, not the cord.

For good operation times, discharge

an NiMH battery from time to time by leaving your phone switched on until it turns itself off.

Do not attempt to open the casing on your phone or its battery. Non-expert handling may damage it.
