Nokia 2112 Guia Do Utilizador

■ Batteries and chargers

Your device is powered by a 
rechargeable battery. The full 
performance of a new battery 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 
talk and standby times are 
noticeably shorter than normal, buy 
a new battery. Use only Nokia 
approved batteries, and recharge your 
battery only with Nokia approved 
chargers designated for this device.

Unplug the charger from the 
electrical plug and the device when 
not in use. Do not leave the battery 
connected to a charger. 
Overcharging may shorten its 
lifetime. If left unused, a fully 
charged battery will lose its charge 
over time. Temperature extremes 
can affect the ability of your battery 
to charge.

Use the battery only for its intended 
purpose. Never use any charger or 
battery that is damaged.

Do not short-circuit the battery. 
Accidental short-circuiting can 
occur when a metallic object such as 
a coin, clip, or pen causes direct 
connection of the positive (+) and 
negative (-) terminals of the battery. 

(These look like metal strips on the 
battery.) This might happen, 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 59°F and 77°F 
(15°C and 25°C). A device with a hot 
or cold battery may not work 
temporarily, even when the battery 
is fully charged. Battery 
performance is particularly limited 
in temperatures well below freezing.

Do not dispose of batteries in a fire! 
Dispose of batteries according to 
local regulations. Please recycle 
when possible. Do not dispose as 
household waste.
