Battery Information - Nokia LD-3W User Manual

Battery information

• Your GPS module is powered by a
rechargeable battery. The full
performance of a new battery is
achieved only 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
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.
• 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.
• 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,
a clip or a 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.
