3. When the battery is full, disconnect the charger from the phone, then from
the wall outlet.
You don't need to charge the battery for a specific length of time, and you can
use the phone while it's charging.
If the battery is completely discharged, it may take up to 20 minutes before the
charging indicator is displayed.
Tip: You can use USB charging when a wall outlet is not available. Data can
be transferred while charging the device. The efficiency of USB charging
power varies significantly, and it may take a long time for charging to start
and the device to start functioning.
Make sure your computer is switched on.
First connect the USB cable to the computer, then to your phone. When the
battery is full, first disconnect the USB cable from your phone, then from
the computer.
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, to replace the battery, take the device to the nearest authorized service
facility.

Charge your phone wirelessly
No need for hassle with cables, just pop your device on a wireless charger, and
it immediately starts charging.
You may need a wireless charging cover for wireless charging to work. The cover
may be included in the sales box, or it may be sold separately. Only use original
Lumia wireless charging covers designed for your phone.
Wireless chargers are sold separately.
The charging areas on the phone and the charger need to touch, so make sure
you align the phone and charger properly. Not all phone models fit in all chargers.
1. Make sure the wireless charger is switched on.
2. If your phone needs a wireless charging cover, make sure it’s properly attached
to your phone.
3. Place your phone on the wireless charger so that the charging areas touch.
4. When the battery is full, remove your phone from the charger.
Warning: Make sure there’s nothing between the charger and the device.
Do not attach any objects, such as stickers, on the device surface near the
charging area.
For more info on wireless charging, see the user guide of your charger and
wireless charging cover.
Connect the headset
Enjoy your favorite music, or free your hands for other things when in a call.
The headset may be sold separately.

the device. Do not connect any voltage source to the audio connector. If you
connect an external device or headset, other than those approved for use with
this device, to the audio connector, pay special attention to volume levels.
