Using the Battery
The performance of a battery is subject to multiple factors: radio network configuration,
signal strength, ambient temperature, chosen functions or settings, phone fittings, and the voice,
data or other application mode you choose to use.
To guarantee the optimal performance of your battery, please stick to the following rules:
Use only the battery provided by the vendor. Otherwise, damages or even injuries could
be caused during the charging.
Power off the mobile phone before removing the battery.
The charging process lasts a longer time for a new battery or a battery not in use for long.
If the battery voltage is too low to enable the mobile phone to be powered on, charge the
battery for a longer time. In this case, the battery icon does not flicker until a long time
after the battery is in charging status.
During the charging, ensure the battery is placed in a room temperature environment or in
an environment close to room temperature.
Immediately stop using the battery if the battery produces odor, overheats, cracks, distorts
or has other damage, or if the electrolyte leaks.
The battery wears out with use. A longer charging time is required as the battery is put
into use for a long time. If the total conversation duration decreases but the charging time
increases even though the battery is properly charged, purchase a standard battery from
the OEM or use a battery approved by our company. Using any poor-quality fittings will
cause harm to your mobile phone or even incur danger!
