If a replacement 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 and 
then disconnect and reconnect it to start the charging.
Unplug the charger from the electrical plug and the device when not in use. Do 
not leave 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.
If the battery is completely discharged, it may take a few minutes before the 
charging indicator appears on the display or before any calls can be made.
Use the battery only for its intended purpose. Never use any charger or battery 
that is damaged.
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.
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 device with a hot 
or cold battery may not work temporarily, even when the battery is fully charged. 
Battery performance is particularly limited in temperatures well below freezing.
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.
■ Nokia battery authentication
Always use original Nokia batteries for your safety. To check that you are getting 
an original Nokia battery, purchase it from an authorized Nokia dealer, look for 
the Nokia Original Enhancements logo on the packaging, and inspect the 
hologram label using the following steps:
Successful completion of the four steps is not a total assurance of the 
authenticity of the battery. If you have any reason to believe that your battery is 
not an authentic original Nokia battery, you should refrain from using it, and take 
it to the nearest authorized Nokia service point or dealer for assistance. Your 
authorized Nokia service point or dealer will inspect the battery for authenticity. 
If authenticity cannot be verified, return the battery to the place of purchase.
