Bluetooth devices must, however, be within 10 meters (33 feet) of each other, although the connection may be subject to interference from obstructions such as walls or from other electronic devices.

Extreme temperatures reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always keep the battery between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F) for optimal performance. A device with a hot or cold battery may not work temporarily. Note that the battery may drain quickly in cold temperatures and lose enough power to turn off the phone within minutes. When you are
outdoors in cold temperatures, keep your phone warm.
Obey local regulations. Recycle when possible. Do not dispose of as household waste.

Do not charge your device during a lightning storm. When the charger is not included in the sales pack, charge your device using the data cable (included) and a USB power adaptor (may be sold separately). You can charge your device with third-party cables and power adaptors that are compliant with USB 2.0 or later and with applicable country regulations and international and regional safety standards. Other adaptors may not meet applicable safety standards, and charging with such adaptors could pose a risk of property loss or personal injury.
Third-party chargers that comply with the applicable CTIA requirements and bear the USB-IF logo, and can connect to your device’s USB connector, may also be compatible.
Only use the battery with a charging system that has been qualified with the system per CTIA Certification Requirements for Battery System Compliance to IEEE 1725. The use of an unqualified battery or charger may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or another hazard.
Replace the battery only with another battery that has been qualified with the system per this standard, IEEE-Std-1725. The use of an unqualified battery may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or another hazard.
Avoid dropping the phone or battery. If the phone or battery is dropped, especially on a hard surface, and the user suspects damage, take it to a service center for inspection.
Improper battery use may result in a fire, explosion, or another hazard.
