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 centre 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.
Nokia battery authentication guidelines
Always use original Nokia batteries for your safety. To help ensure that you are getting an original Nokia battery, purchase it
from a Nokia authorised service centre or dealer, and check the hologram label.
Authenticate hologram
1 Look at the hologram. You should see the Nokia connecting hands symbol from one angle and the Nokia Original
Accessories logo from the other angle.
2 Angle the hologram left, right, down, and up. You should see 1, 2, 3 and 4 dots on each side respectively.
However, this is not a total assurance of the authenticity of the battery. If you cannot confirm authenticity or if you have any
reason to believe that your Nokia battery with the hologram on the label is not an authentic Nokia battery, stop using the
battery and take it to the nearest Nokia authorised service centre or dealer.
