Do not leave the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a car in summer
or winter conditions, as you will reduce the capacity and lifetime of the
battery. Always try to keep the battery at room temperature. A phone
with a hot or cold battery may temporarily not work, even when the
battery is fully charged. Li-ion batteries are particularly affected by
temperatures below 0 C (32 F).
Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting can occur
when a metallic object (coin, clip or pen) causes a direct connection
between the + and terminals of the battery (metal strips on the battery),
for example when you carry a spare battery in a pocket or bag.
Shortcircuiting the terminals may damage the battery or the object
causing the short-circuiting.
Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local regulations. Always
recycle. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire.
Note: The battery charging circuit may stop functioning if you are viewing a streaming video and
receive a call while charging as the capacity of the charging circuit will be exceeded.
Operating Environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any area and always
switch your phone off whenever it is forbidden to use it, or when it may
cause interference or danger.
When connecting the phone or any accessory to another device, read its
user’s guide for detailed safety instructions. Do not connect incompatible
products.
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that
for the satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety of
personnel, it is recommended that the equipment should only be used in
the normal operating position (held to your ear with the antenna pointing
over your shoulder).
