10 Basics
Battery
Your 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 power. Also, consider your location: poor signal strength from
your mobile network and extreme temperature make the battery work harder.
Inserting the battery
Remove the back cover. See “Removing the back cover.”
Insert the battery with its exposed copper contacts into the phone first—make sure
that the ribbon strip extends out of the battery case to make it easy to remove the
battery!
The exposed copper contacts should be on the left when you insert the battery.
Gently push the battery into place.
Removing the battery
Make sure the phone is turned off.
Take the back cover off. See “Removing the back cover.”
Pull the ribbon strip upward to release the battery.
