Proper use of the battery

Excessive charging causes shortened battery life. The battery temperature affects the quality of charging. Before the charging process starts, lower or raise the temperature to be close to room temperature (approx. 20°C). If the battery temperature exceeds 40°C the battery must not be charged! If the battery overheats, the device will display an appropriate message. The battery lifespan can be shortened, if it has been exposed to very low or very high temperatures – this causes interference to the phone, even when the battery has been properly charged. Use the battery only according to its intended purpose. Avoid leaving the battery within a magnetic field range, because it shortens its life. Do not use a damaged battery. Do not throw the battery into flames! Do not throw away a worn-out battery – send it or return it to an authorized recycling point.
