(a short circuit can occur if a metallic object such as a coin,
clip or pen causes direct connection between the + and -
terminals of the battery). Therefore, always take adequate
precautions when carrying a spare battery in a purse
or pocket.
■
Batteries must be recycled or disposed of properly and
according to your local regulations, and must never be
disposed of in household waste. Never dispose of batteries
in a fire.
■
When you disconnect the power cord of any accessory,
including the charger, grasp and pull the plug, not the cord.
■
For good operation times, discharge
an NiMH battery from time to time by leaving your phone
switched on until it turns itself off.
■
Do not attempt to open the casing on your phone or its
battery. Non-expert handling may damage it.
■
Do not drop, knock or shake the phone. Rough handling
can break the internal circuit boards.
■
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong
detergents to clean your phone. Wipe it with a soft cloth
slightly dampened in a mild soap and water solution.
■
Do not store it in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten
the life of electronic devices, damage batteries and warp or
melt certain plastics.
■
Do not store your phone in cold areas. When it warms up (to
its normal temperature) moisture can form inside the phone
which may damage electronic circuit boards.
All of the above suggestions apply equally to your phone,
