Taking care of your device

battery. Use only Nokia approved batteries and recharge your
battery only with Nokia approved chargers designated for
this device.
Avoid extreme temperatures. Always try to keep the battery
between 59°F and 77°F (15°C and 25°C). Extreme
temperatures reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery.
A device with a hot or cold battery may not work temporarily.
Battery performance is particularly limited in temperatures
well below freezing.
Do not short-circuit. 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.
Disposal. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as they may
explode. Dispose of batteries according to local regulations.
Please recycle when possible. Do not dispose as household
waste.
Leak. Do not dismantle, cut, open, crush, bend, puncture, or
shred cells or batteries. In the event of a battery leak, prevent
battery liquid contact with skin or eyes. If this happens, flush
the affected areas immediately with water, or seek medical
help.
Damage. Do not modify, remanufacture, attempt to insert
foreign objects into the battery or immerse or expose it to
water or other liquids. Batteries may explode if damaged.
Correct use. Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
Improper battery use may result in a fire, explosion or other
hazard. If the device or battery is dropped, especially on a
hard surface and you believe the battery has been damaged,
take it to a service center for inspection before continuing to
use it. Never use any charger or battery that is damaged. Keep
your battery out of the reach of small children.
Taking care of your device
Your device is a product of superior design and craftsmanship
and should be treated with care. The following suggestions
will help you protect your warranty coverage.
Set up your device on a stable work surface.
•
Do not restrict or block any ventilation slots or fans. Do
•
not overheat the device.
Keep the device dry. Precipitation, humidity, and all
•
types of liquids or moisture can contain minerals that
will corrode electronic circuits. If your device does get
wet, remove the battery and allow the device to dry
completely before replacing it.
20
Do not use or store the device in dusty, dirty areas. Its
•
moving parts and electronic components can be
damaged.
Avoid subjecting your device to extreme temperatures,
•
below 0 or above 40 degrees Celsius (below 32 or above
104 degrees Fahrenheit).
Do not store the device in high or cold temperature.
•
High temperatures can shorten the life of electronic
devices, damage batteries, and warp or melt certain
plastics. When the device warms to its normal
temperature from a cold temperature, moisture can
form inside the device and damage electronic circuit
boards.
Carry your device properly when in the sleep or
•
hibernation mode, or turned off. Use a carrying case
that provides adequate protection.
Do not attempt to replace any parts in the device
•
yourself, such as WLAN card or display. Always contact
the nearest authorized service facility for repair.
Replacing parts yourself may cause warranty to expire.
Do not drop, knock, or shake the device. Rough
•
handling can break internal circuit boards and fine
mechanics.
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong
•
detergents to clean the device. Only use a soft, clean,
dry cloth to clean the surface and display of the device.
When removing the battery, you may clean the exterior
using a soft, clean, dry cloth. Switch off your device
before removing the battery.
Do not paint the device. Paint can clog the moving parts
•
and prevent proper operation.
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement
•
antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or
attachments could damage the device and may violate
regulations governing radio devices.
Use chargers indoors.
•
If you suspect your device needs service or repair,
•
switch off the device, disconnect the power plug, and
remove the battery.
These suggestions apply equally to your device, battery,
charger, or any accessory.
