Battery and charger information

Battery and charger

information

Your device is powered by a rechargeable battery. The

battery intended for use with this device is BL-5K. This

device is intended for use when supplied with power

from the following chargers: AC-10, DC-6, DC-10. 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. Use of an

unapproved battery or charger may present a risk of

fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard.
The exact charger model number may vary depending

on the type of plug. The plug variant is identified by

one of the following: E, EB, X, AR, U, A, C, or UB.
If a 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, then

disconnect and reconnect it to begin charging the

battery. If the battery is completely discharged, it may

take several minutes before the charging indicator

appears on the display or before any calls can be made.

Always switch the device off and disconnect the

charger before removing the battery.
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.
Always try to keep the battery between 15°C and 25°C

(59°F and 77°F). 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 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.
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.
