Extreme temperatures will affect the charging capacity of your

battery: it may require cooling or warming first.

Do not leave the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a car

in summer or winter conditions, as you will reduce the

capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try to keep the

battery at room temperature. A phone with a hot or cold

battery may temporarily not work, even when the battery is

fully charged. Li-ion batteries are particularly affected by

temperatures below 0 °C (32 °F).

Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting can

occur when a metallic object (coin, clip or pen) causes a

direct connection between the + and – terminals of the

battery (metal strips on the battery), for example when you

carry a spare battery in a pocket or bag. Short-circuiting the

terminals may damage the battery or the object causing the

short-circuiting.

Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local regulations.

Always recycle. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire.
