Battery Information

There is a battery in the phone. The battery can be recharged using a charger that is included in the

set.

The battery life depends on conditions in which the phone is used. Your distance from a relay

transmitter, number and the length of phone calls significantly reduce the battery life. While on the

go, the phone switches between relay transmitters and such switching also significantly affects the

battery life.

After multiple charges and discharges, it is natural for the battery to eventually lose its ability to hold

a charge. Get a new battery if you notice a significant drop in the battery performance.

Use only batteries recommended by the Manufacturer. Never leave the charger connected longer

than 2-3 days.

Never keep the phone in excessively hot places. High temperatures might negatively impact both the

battery and the phone.

Never use a battery that is clearly damaged. Doing so might cause a short circuit, and might damage

the phone. Check battery installation for proper polarization.

Leaving the battery in excessively hot or cold places will reduce the battery life. The recommended

storage temperature range is between 15°C and 25°C. Installing a cold battery into the phone might

cause the phone to malfunction and might damage the phone.

Protect Your Environment

Note: The phone is marked in compliance with the European Waste Electrical and Electronic

Equipment Directive 2002/96/EC (WEEE) and the Polish Act on Waste Electrical and Electronic

Equipment, and with the symbol of waste electricals.

Such a symbol tells us that the device, after use, must not be disposed of in the normal household

waste stream.

Note: Never throw a phone to municipal solid waste!!! The product should be utilized in

authorized places only.

As the product contains hazardous components, improper storage and use of such equipment might

lead to serious consequences harmful for both people and natural environment. To avoid such

consequences, proper handling of waste electrical and electronic equipment is essential!

To facilitate recycling of materials used to produce the phone package, follow the waste

sorting rules in your area.

The set contains a Li-ion battery. Old batteries pose environmental risks. They should be

disposed of at a special place in a special container in compliance with current regulations. Never

throw old batteries or chargers to municipal solid waste, they should be collected for disposal.

NEVER PUT BATTERIES AND CHARGERS INTO FIRE!
