Recycle
Always return your used electronic products, batteries, and packaging
materials to dedicated collection points. This way you help prevent
uncontrolled waste disposal and promote the recycling of materials. All
materials of the device can be recovered as materials and energy.
Battery and charger info
Use your device only with an original BL-5CB rechargeable battery. Charge your
device with AC-18 charger. Charger plug type may vary. HMD Global may make
additional battery or charger models available for this device.

used, battery condition, and temperature.
Battery and charger safety
- Always switch the device off and unplug the charger before removing the battery. To unplug a charger or an accessory, hold and pull the plug, not the cord.
- When your charger is not in use, unplug it. If left unused, a fully charged battery will lose its charge over time.
- Always keep the battery between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F) for optimal performance. Extreme temperatures reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery. A device with a hot or cold battery may not work temporarily.
- Accidental short-circuiting can happen when a metallic object touches the metal strips on the battery. This may damage the battery or the other object.
- Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as they may explode. Obey local regulations. Recycle when possible. Do not dispose as household waste.
- Do not dismantle, cut, crush, bend, puncture, or otherwise damage the battery in any way. If a battery leaks, do not let liquid touch skin or eyes. If this happens, immediately flush the affected areas with water, or seek medical help. Do not modify, attempt to insert foreign objects into the battery, or immerse or expose it to water or other liquids. Batteries may explode if damaged.
- Use the battery and charger for their intended purposes only. Improper use, or use of unapproved or incompatible batteries or chargers may present a risk of fire, explosion, or other hazard, and may invalidate any approval or warranty. If you believe the battery or charger is damaged, take it to a service centre or your phone dealer before continuing to use it. Never use a damaged battery or charger. Only use the charger indoors. Do not charge your device during a lightning storm.
