14      Basics      BatteryYour phone uses a rechargeable battery. Please use only original batteries and accessories that came with your phone or replacements that we recommend.How long the battery can last before it needs recharging depends on how you use your phone. Among these are the phone features and accessories you use (for example, leaving your Bluetooth connection always on uses more power). Long phone calls and frequent web browsing use up much battery. Also, consider your location: poor signal strength from your mobile network and extreme temperature make the battery work harder.When you take your phone out from the box and remove the back cover for the first time, you’ll find that the battery is already installed with a thin film.

Some batteries perform best after several full charge/discharge cycles.When the phone is shipped, the battery is already installed on your phone. A thin film is inserted between the battery and the compartment. You need to remove this film before you can charge the battery. See “Removing the battery.”Only the power adapter and USB sync cable provided with your phone must be used to charge the battery.Do not remove the battery from the phone while you are charging it using the power or car adapter.1.
