Troubleshooting
If you cannot connect the headset
to your compatible phone, check
that the headset is charged,
switched on, and paired with the
phone.
Battery information
This device has an internal,
nonremovable, rechargeable battery.
Do not attempt to remove the battery
from the device as you may damage
the device. The battery can be
charged and discharged hundreds of
times, but it will eventually wear out.
Recharge your battery only with
Nokia approved chargers designated
for this device. Use of an unapproved
charger may present a risk of fire,
explosion, leakage, or other hazard.
If a battery is being used for the first
time or if the battery has not been
used for a prolonged period, it may be
necessary to connect the charger,
then disconnect and reconnect it to
begin charging the battery. If the
battery is completely discharged, it
may take several minutes before the
charging indicator light is displayed.
Unplug the charger from the
electrical plug and the device when
not in use. Do not leave a fully
charged battery connected to a
charger, since overcharging may
shorten its lifetime. If left unused, a
fully charged battery will lose its
charge over time.
Always try to keep the battery
between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and
77°F). Extreme temperatures reduce
the capacity and lifetime of the
battery. A device with a hot or cold
battery may not work temporarily.
Battery performance is particularly

limited in temperatures well below
freezing.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as
they may explode. Batteries may also
explode if damaged.
Never use any charger that is
damaged.
Important: Battery talk
and standby times are
estimates only and
depend on network conditions,
features used, battery age and
condition, temperatures to which
battery is exposed, and many other
factors. The amount of time a device
is used for calls will affect its standby
time. Likewise, the amount of time
that the device is turned on and in
the standby mode will affect its talk
time.

Care and maintenance
Your device is a product of superior
design and craftsmanship and should
be treated with care. The following
suggestions will help you protect
your warranty coverage.
• Keep the device dry. Precipitation,
humidity, and all types of liquids
or moisture can contain minerals
that will corrode electronic
circuits. If your device does get
wet, allow it to dry completely.
• Do not use or store the device in
dusty, dirty areas. Its moving parts
and electronic components can
be damaged.
• Do not store the device in hot
areas. High temperatures can
shorten the life of electronic
devices, damage batteries, and
warp or melt certain plastics.
• Do not store the device in cold
areas. When the device returns to
its normal temperature, moisture
can form inside the device and
damage electronic circuit boards.
• Do not attempt to open the
device.
• Do not drop, knock, or shake the
device. Rough handling can break
internal circuit boards and fine
mechanics.
• Do not use harsh chemicals,
cleaning solvents, or strong
detergents to clean the device.
• Do not paint the device. Paint can
clog the moving parts and prevent
proper operation.
These suggestions apply equally to
your device, charger, or any
enhancement. If any device is not
working properly, take it to the
nearest authorised service facility for
service.
