Caring for the Battery
Protecting Your Battery
The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your
battery's performance.
Use only approved batteries and desktop chargers. These chargers are
designed to maximize battery life. Using other batteries or chargers
voids your warranty and may cause damage.
In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures
that range from 32º F to 113º F (0º C to 45º C).
Don't use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity
areas, such as the bathroom.
Never dispose of the battery by incineration.
Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.
Don't attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.
The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a long
period of time.
It's best to replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable
performance. It can be recharged hundreds of times before it
needs replacing.
Don't store the battery in high temperature areas for long periods of
time. It's best to follow these storage rules:
Less than one month:
4º F to 140º F (-20º C to 60º C)
More than one month:
4º F to 113º F (-20º C to 45º C)

and can be broken. Avoid dropping, hitting, bending or sitting on it.
Body-Worn Operation
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if you wear a
handset on your body, use the supplied or approved carrying case, holster
or other body-worn accessory. If you do not use a body-worn accessory,
ensure that the antenna is at least one inch (2.5 centimeters) from your
body when transmitting. Use of non-approved accessories may violate
FCC RF exposure guidelines.

Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless Phones
The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy
absorbed in the head of a user of a wireless handset.

and calculation process. It does not represent how much RF the phone
