Caring for the battery
Your VisorPhone uses a 680mAh Lithium Ion battery. A fully-charged
battery provides approximately 3 hours of talk time and more than 70 hours
of standby time. Follow these guidelines to get the most from your battery:
Do not disassemble the battery pack.
If you are not using your VisorPhone for an extended period of time,
disconnect the battery pack from the phone and store it in a cool, dry
place; charge the battery at least once every six months when not in use.
Use your VisorPhone at normal temperatures (between -4 degrees and
130 degrees Fahrenheit). Using your VisorPhone outside of the normal
temperature range can severely decrease the battery performance.
Never throw the battery pack into fire or expose it to extreme heat.
If the battery pack ever becomes hot or smells odd, stop using it.
If the battery pack becomes damaged and leaks liquid, stop using it and
avoid skin contact with the leaking liquid.
Use only a genuine Handspring battery pack. Third party battery packs
are not guaranteed to function properly with your VisorPhone.
Always replace the battery pack with the same type of pack. Using
another type of battery pack may cause an explosion.
Do not short any battery contacts or let the contacts come in direct
contact with conductive or electronic objects.
Be sure to properly dispose of the battery. For more information, see
“How do I dispose of the battery?” on page 93.
