■ Charging and discharging
Your device is powered by a rechargeable battery. The battery intended for use with
this device is BL-4S. Nokia may make additional battery models available for this
device. This device is intended for use when supplied with power from the
following charger: AC-8. 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.
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 other
batteries or chargers may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard.
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.
Safe removal. 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

its lifetime. If left unused, a fully charged battery will lose its charge over time.

25°C (59°F and 77°F). Extreme temperatures reduce the capacity and lifetime of
