Tips for improving battery performance
• Do not disassemble or short-circuit the battery.
• Keep the metal contacts at the base of the battery clean.
• If you have not used an internal or external battery for more than a
month, recharge it before using it.
• Ask your local Kyocera Service Center to replace the internal battery when
it no longer maintains a charge.
• Do not use any battery in direct sunlight or in places with high humidity,
such as the bathroom.
• Never dispose of any battery in or near a fire. It could explode.
• Do not charge any battery if the temperature is below 32ºF (0ºC) or above
122ºF (50ºC).
• Do not store any battery in hot areas for long periods of time. Use these
storage guidelines:
under 1 month: -4º to 140ºF (-20º to 60ºC)
over 1 month: -4ºF to 113ºF (-20º to 45ºC)
