Efficient Use
For optimum performance with minimum power
consumption, do not cover the device with
anything. Covering the device may cause the
device to operate at higher power levels than
needed, and may shorten the using time of the
battery.
CTIA Requirements
a. Do not disassemble or open crush, bend or
deform, puncture or shred.
b. Do not modify or remanufacture, attempt
to insert foreign objects into the battery,
immerse or expose to water or other liquids,

c. Only use the battery for the system for which
it is specified.
d. Only use the battery with a charging system
that has been qualified with the system per
this standard. Use of an unqualified battery or
charger may present a risk of fire, explosion,
leakage, or other hazard.

conductive objects to contact battery
terminals.
