    Important information about the battery
    • Rechargeable batteries have a limited lifecycle and may eventually need to  
    be replaced. If you noti ce significantly reduced battery life, replace the  
    battery. Your phones built-in battery is  not user-removable. To replace the  
    battery, contact an authorized service  center. Do not attempt to remove it  
    yourself.
    • If your phone has been running for long  periods of time, especially in hot  
    environments, heat may be pushed to the surface of the phone. If your  
    phone is overheating, cease using it  immediately and unplug it from any  
    power source to let it cool down. Do not hold on to the phone for too long 
    to avoid burn injuries. 
    • Use the original battery, power adapte r, and USB cable to charge your  
    phone. Using third-party access ories may reduce your phones  
    performance or pose security risks. Do  not operate your phone or cover it  
    with any object while it is charging.  Do not cover the power adapter either.
    • The time required to fully charge the battery depends on the ambient  
    temperature and age of the battery.
    • If your phone is low on power, it plays an alert tone and displays a  
    message. If the battery level is extremely low, your phone automatically  
    powers off. 
    • If the battery power is  depleted, you may not be able to power on your  
    phone immediately after you begin char ging the battery. This is normal.  
    Allow the battery to charge for a few  minutes before attempting to power
