Battery information

15. Battery information
This section provides information about batteries, chargers, safety guidelines and
technical information. Be aware that the information in this section is subject to
change as batteries and chargers change.
■Charging and discharging batteries
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery. The full performance of a new
battery is achieved only after two or three complete charge and discharge cycles.
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 phone.
Unplug the charger from the electrical plug and the phone 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.
Use the battery only for its intended purpose. Never use any charger or battery that
is damaged.
Do not short-circuit the battery. 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.
Battery information
87
Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a closed car in summer or winter
conditions, will reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery and its ability to charge.
Always try to keep the battery between 59°F and 77°F (15°C and 25°C). A phone with
a hot or cold battery may not work temporarily, even when the battery is fully charged.
Battery performance is particularly limited in temperatures well below freezing.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire, as they may explode. Batteries may also explode
if damaged. Dispose of batteries according to local regulations. Please recycle when
possible. Do not dispose as household waste.
■Nokia battery authentication guidelines
Always use original Nokia batteries for your safety. To check that you are getting
an original Nokia battery, purchase it from an authorized Nokia dealer, look for the
Nokia Original Enhancements logo on the packaging and inspect the hologram
label using the following steps:
Successful completion of the four steps is not a total assurance of the authenticity
of the battery. If you have any reason to believe that your battery is not an authentic
original Nokia battery, you should refrain from using it and take it to the nearest
authorized Nokia service point or dealer for assistance. Your authorized Nokia
service point or dealer will inspect the battery for authenticity.
If authenticity cannot be verified, return the battery to the place of purchase.
Battery information
88
Authenticate hologram
1. When looking at the hologram label, you should see
the Nokia connecting hands symbol from one angle
and the Nokia Original Enhancements logo when
looking from another angle.
2. When you angle the hologram to the left, right,
down, and up sides of the logo, you should see 1, 2,
3, and 4 dots on each side respectively.
3. Scratch the side of the label to reveal a 20-digit
code, for example, 12345678919876543210. Turn
the battery so that the numbers are facing upwards.
The 20-digit code reads starting from the number at
the top row followed by the bottom row.
4. Confirm that the 20-digit code is valid by following
the instructions at www.nokia.com/batterycheck.
Battery information
89
What if your battery is not authentic?
If you cannot confirm that your Nokia battery with the hologram label is an authentic
Nokia battery, please do not use the battery. Take it to the nearest authorized Nokia
service point or dealer for assistance. The use of a battery that is not approved by the
manufacturer may be dangerous and may result in poor performance and damage
to your phone and its enhancements. It may also invalidate any approval or warranty
applying to the phone.
To find out more about original Nokia batteries visit www.nokia.com/battery.
■Charging times
The following charging times are approximate with the BL-6C 1150 mAh
Li-Ion battery:
Travel Charger (ACP-12): up to 1 hour 45 minutes
Standard Travel Charger (ACP-7): up to 3 hours 45 minutes
■Talk and standby times
Operation times are estimates only and depend on signal strength, network

off your device when its use is prohibited or when it may cause interference or
danger. Use the device only in its normal operating positions.
This device meets RF exposure guidelines when used either in the normal use
position against the ear or when positioned at least 2.2 centimeters (7/8 inch)
away from the body. When a carry case, belt clip or holder is used for body-worn
operation, it should not contain metal and should position the device the
above-stated distance from your body.
To transmit data files or messages, this device requires a good quality connection
to the network. In some cases, transmission of data files or messages may be
delayed until such a connection is available. Ensure the above separation distance
instructions are followed until the transmission is completed.
Parts of the device are magnetic. Metallic materials may be attracted to the device.
Do not place credit cards or other magnetic storage media near the device, because
information stored on them may be erased.
■Medical devices
Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, including wireless phones, may
interfere with the functionality of inadequately protected medical devices. Consult
a physician or the manufacturer of the medical device to determine if they are
adequately shielded from external RF energy or if you have any questions. Switch
off your device in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas
Additional safety information
93
instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment
that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 15.3
centimeters (6 inches) be maintained between a wireless phone and a pacemaker
to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are
consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of Wireless
Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers should:
• Always keep the device more than 15.3 centimeters (6 inches) from the
pacemaker when the device is switched on.
• Do not carry the device in a breast pocket.
• Hold the device to the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for
interference.
If you suspect interference, switch off your device, and move the device away.
Hearing aids
Some digital wireless devices may interfere with some hearing aids. If interference
occurs, consult your service provider.
■Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic
systems in motor vehicles such as electronic fuel injection systems, electronic
antiskid (antilock) braking systems, electronic speed control systems, air bag
systems. For more information, check with the manufacturer or its representative
of your vehicle or any equipment that has been added.
Only qualified personnel should service the device, or install the device in a vehicle.
Faulty installation or service may be dangerous and may invalidate any warranty
Additional safety information
94
that may apply to the device. Check regularly that all wireless device equipment in
your vehicle is mounted and operating properly. Do not store or carry flammable
liquids, gases, or explosive materials in the same compartment as the device, its
parts, or enhancements. For vehicles equipped with an air bag, remember that air
bags inflate with great force. Do not place objects, including installed or portable
wireless equipment in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If
in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inflates,
serious injury could result.
Using your device while flying in aircraft is prohibited. Switch off your device
before boarding an aircraft. The use of wireless teledevices in an aircraft may be
dangerous to the operation of the aircraft, disrupt the wireless telephone network,
and may be illegal.
■Potentially explosive environments
Switch off your device when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere
and obey all signs and instructions. Potentially explosive atmospheres include
areas where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine. Sparks
in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even
death. Switch off the device at refuelling points such as near gas pumps at service
stations. Observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots, storage,
and distribution areas; chemical plants; or where blasting operations are in
progress. Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always
clearly marked. They include below deck on boats, chemical transfer or storage
facilities, vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane), and
areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust, or metal
powders.

■Emergency calls
Important: Wireless phones, including this phone, operate using radio
signals, wireless networks, landline networks, and user-programmed
functions. Because of this, connections in all conditions cannot be
guaranteed. You should never rely solely on any wireless phone for
essential communications like medical emergencies.
To make an emergency call, do the following:
1. If the phone is not on, switch it on. Check for adequate signal strength.
2. Press End as many times as needed to clear the display and ready the
phone for calls.
3. Enter the official emergency number for your present location. Emergency
numbers vary by location.
4. Press Call.
If certain features are in use, you may first need to turn those features off before
you can make an emergency call. Consult this guide or your service provider for
more information.
When making an emergency call, give all the necessary information as accurately
as possible. Your wireless device may be the only means of communication at the
scene of an accident. Do not end the call until given permission to do so.
■Certification information (SAR)
This mobile device meets guidelines for exposure to radio waves.
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed
the limits recommended by international guidelines. These guidelines were
developed by the independent scientific organization ICNIRP and include safety
Additional safety information
96
margins designed to assure the protection of all person, regardless of age and
health.
The exposure guidelines for mobile devices employ a unit of measurement known
as the Specific Absorption Rate or SAR. The SAR limit set by ICNIRP is 2.0 watts/
kilogram (W/kg) averaged over 10 grams of tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted
using standard operating positions with the device transmitting at its highest
certified power level in all tested frequency bands. The actual SAR level of an
operating device can be well below the maximum value because the device is
designed to use only the power required to reach the network. That amount
changes depending on a number of factors such as how close you are to a network
base station. The highest SAR value when tested according to international testing
procedures for use at the ear is 0.54 W/kg.
Use of device accessories and enhancements may result in different SAR values.
SAR values may vary depending on national reporting and testing requirements
and the network band. Additional SAR information may be provided under product
information at www.nokia.com.
Your mobile device is also designed to meet the requirements for exposure to radio
waves established by the Federal Communications Commission (USA) and Industry
Canada. These requirements set a SAR limit of 1.6 W/kg averaged over one gram of
tissue. The highest SAR value reported under this standard during product
certification for use at the ear is 1.01 W/kg and when properly worn on the body is
0.49 W/kg.
Information about this device can be found on the FCC's website at http://
www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid by searching the equipment authorization system using
FCC ID: QMNRH-90.

■Hearing aid compatibility (HAC)
Your mobile device model complies with FCC rules governing hearing aid
compatibility. These rules require an M3 microphone or higher value. The M-value,
shown on the device box, refers to lower radio frequency (RF) emissions. A higher
M-value generally indicates that a device model has a lower RF emissions level,
which may improve the likelihood that the device will operate with certain hearing
aids. Some hearing aids are more immune than others are to interference. Please
consult your hearing health professional to determine the M rating of your hearing
aid and whether your hearing aid will work with this device. More information on
accessibility can be found at www.nokiaaccessibility.com.
