Battery information

■ Charging and discharging

Your device 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.
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.
