Nokia 6500 slide rm-240 User Manual

This product is of superior design and craftsmanship and should be treated with care. The suggestions below

will help you to fulfil any warranty obligations and to enjoy this product for many years.

• Keep the phone and all its parts and accessories out of the reach of small children.

• Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity and all types of liquids or moisture can contain minerals that

will corrode electronic circuits.

• Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty areas. Its moving parts can be damaged.

• Do not store the phone in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the life of electronic devices, damage

batteries, and warp or melt certain plastics.

• Do not store the phone in cold areas. When it warms up (to its normal temperature), moisture can form

inside, which may damage electronic circuit boards.

• Do not drop, knock or shake the phone. Rough handling can break internal circuit boards.

• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the phone.

• Do not paint the phone. Paint can clog the moving parts and prevent proper operation.

• Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorised antennas, modifications or

attachments could damage the phone and may violate regulations governing radio devices.

All of the above suggestions apply equally to the product, battery, charger or any accessory.

Note:  A  new  battery’s  full  performance  is  achieved  only  after  two  or  three  complete  charge  and  discharge  cycles!

The  battery  can  be  charged  and  discharged  hundreds  of  times  but  it  will  eventually  wear  out.

When  the  operating  time  (talk-time  and  standby  time)  is  noticeably  shorter  than  normal,  it  is  time  to  buy  a  new  battery.

Use  only  batteries  approved  by  the  phone  manufacturer  and  recharge  the  battery  only  with  the  chargers

approved by the manufacturer.

Unplug  the  charger  when  not  in  use.  Do  not  leave  the  battery  connected  to  a  charger  for  longer  than  a  week,  since

overcharging may shorten its lifetime.

If  left  unused  a  fully  charged  battery  will  discharge  itself  over  time  Temperature  extremes  can  affect  the  ability  of 

your battery to charge.

For  good  operation  times  with  Ni-Cd/NiMh  batteries,  discharge  the  battery  from  time  to  time  by  leaving  the

product  switched  on  until  it  turns  itself  off  (or  by  using  the  battery  discharge  facility  of  any  approved  accessory

available for the product).

Do  not  attempt  to  discharge  the  battery  by  any  other  means  Use  the  battery  only  for  its  intended  purpose.

Never use any charger or battery which is damaged.

Do  not  short-circuit  the  battery.  Accidental  short-circuiting  can  occur  when  a  metallic  object  (coin,  clip  or

pen)  causes  direct  connection  of  the  +  and  -  terminals  of  the  battery  (metal  strips  on  the  battery)  for  example

when  you  carry  a  spare  battery  in  your  pocket  or  purse.  Short-circuiting  the  terminals  may  damage  the  battery

or the connecting object.

Leaving  the  battery  in  hot  or  cold  places,  such  as  in  a  closed  car  in  summer  or  winter  conditions,  will  reduce

the  capacity  and  lifetime  of  the  battery.  Always  try  to  keep  the  battery  between  15°C  and  25°C  (59°F  and  77°F).

A  phone  with  a  hot  or  cold  battery  may  temporarily  not  work,  even  when  the  battery  is  fully  charged.

Batteries’ performance is particularly limited in temperatures well below freezing.

Do  not  dispose  batteries  in  a  fire!  Dispose  of  batteries  according  to  local  regulations  (e.g.  recycling).

Do not dispose as household waste.
