Your device is powered by a rechargeable battery. The

battery intended for use with this device is BL-5K. Nokia

may make additional battery models available for this

device. This device is intended for use when supplied

with power from the following chargers: AC-10. 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, K, 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.
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.
Proper charging. Unplug the charger from the electrical

plug and the device when not in use. Do not leave a

fully charged battery connected to a charger, since

overcharging may shorten its lifetime. If left unused, a

fully charged battery will lose its charge over time.
Avoid extreme temperatures. Always try to keep the

battery between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F).

particularly limited in temperatures well below

freezing.
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.
