Battery information and care
You do not need to completely discharge the battery before recharging. Unlike
•
other battery systems, there is no memory effect that could compromise the
battery's performance.
Use only LG batteries and chargers. LG chargers are designed to maximise the
•
battery life.
Do not disassemble or short-circuit the battery.
•
Keep the metal contacts of the battery clean.
•
Replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable performance. The
•
battery pack may be recharged hundreds of times before it needs replacing.
Recharge the battery if it has not been used for a long time to maximise usability.
•
Do not expose the battery charger to direct sunlight or use it in high humidity, such
•
as in the bathroom.
Do not leave the battery in hot or cold places, as this may deteriorate battery
•
performance.
There is risk of explosion if the battery is replaced with an incorrect type.
•
Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions. Please
•
recycle when possible. Do not dispose as household waste.
If you need to replace the battery, take it to the nearest authorised LG Electronics
•
service point or dealer for assistance.
Always unplug the charger from the wall socket after the phone is fully charged to
•
save unnecessary power consumption of the charger.
Actual battery life will depend on network configuration, product settings, usage
•
patterns, battery and environmental conditions.
Make sure that no sharp-edged items such as animal's teeth or nails, come into
•
contact with the battery. This could cause a fire.
