Caring for the Battery
Protecting Your Battery
The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your
battery’s performance:
• 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. Use only manufacturer-approved batteries and
accessories. Buying the right batteries and accessories is
the best way to ensure they’re genuine and safe.
• Do not disassemble or open, crush, bend or deform, or
puncture or shred the battery.
• Do not modify or remanufacture, attempt to insert foreign
objects into the battery, immerse or expose to water or
other liquids, expose to fire, explosion, or other hazard.
• Avoid dropping the phone or battery. If the phone or
battery is dropped, especially on a hard surface, and
the user suspects damage, take it to a service center for
inspection.
• Improper battery use may result in a fire, explosion, or
other hazard.
• Do not short-circuit a battery or allow metallic conductive
objects to contact battery terminals.
• Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.
• Battery usage by children should be supervised.
Charging
• Only charge the battery using the provided AC adapter and
USB data cable. Use of any other device may present a risk
of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard.
• In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in
temperatures that range from 32° F to 113° F (0° C to
45° C).
