Caring for the Battery
Protecting Your Battery
The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery’s
performance.
ⅷ Recently, there have been some public reports of wireless phone
batteries overheating, catching fire, or exploding. It appears that
many, if not all, of these reports involve counterfeit or inexpensive,
aftermarket-brand batteries with unknown or questionable
manufacturing standards. Trumpet Mobile is not aware of similar
problems with Trumpet Mobile phones resulting from the proper use
of batteries and accessories approved by Trumpet Mobile or the
manufacturer of your phone. Use only Trumpet Mobile- or
manufacturer-approved batteries and accessories found at Partner
Stores. Buying the right batteries and accessories is the best way to
ensure they’re genuine and safe.
ⅷ In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures
that range from 32° F to 113° F (0° C to 45° C).
ⅷ Don’t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity
areas, such as the bathroom.
ⅷ Never dispose of the battery by incineration.
ⅷ Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.
ⅷ Don’t attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.
ⅷ The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a long
period of time.
ⅷ It’s best to replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable
performance. It can be recharged hundreds of times before it needs
replacing.
ⅷ Don’t store the battery in high temperature areas for long periods of
time. It’s best to follow these storage rules:
Ⅲ Less than one month:
-4° F to 140° F (-20° C to 60° C)
Ⅲ More than one month:
-4° F to 113° F (-20° C to 45° C)
