Availability of Various Features/

Many services and features are network dependent
and may require additional subscription and/or usage
charges. Not all features are available for purchase or
use in all areas. Downloadable Ringtones may be
available at an additional cost. Other conditions and
restrictions may apply. See your service provider for
additional information.
Battery Standby and Talk Time
Standby and talk times will vary depending on phone
usage patterns and conditions. Battery power
consumption depends on factors such as network
configuration, signal strength, operating temperature,
features selected, frequency of calls, and voice, data,
and other application usage patterns.
Battery Precautions
• Avoid dropping the cell phone. Dropping it, especially on a
hard surface, can potentially cause damage to the phone
and battery. If you suspect damage to the phone or
battery, take it to a service center for inspection.
• Never use any charger or battery that is damaged in any
way.
• Do not modify or remanufacture the battery as this could
result in serious safety hazards. Use batteries only for
their intended use.
• If you use the phone near the network's base station, it
uses less power; talk and standby time are greatly
affected by the signal strength on the cellular network
and the parameters set by the network operator.
• Follow battery usage, storage and charging guidelines
found in the user’s guide.
• Battery charging time depends on the remaining battery
charge and the type of battery and charger used. The
battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of
times, but it will gradually wear out. When the operation
time (talk time and standby time) is noticeably shorter
than normal, it is time to buy a new battery.
• If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself
over time and must be recharged before use.
