When using this device, obey all laws and respect local customs, privacy and legitimate rights of others, including copyrights.
Copyright protection may prevent you from copying, modifying, or transferring images, music, and other content.
Content owners may use different types of digital rights management (DRM) technologies to protect their intellectual property,
including copyrights. This device uses various types of DRM software to access DRM-protected content. With this device you can
access content protected with WMDRM 10 and OMA DRM 1.0. If certain DRM software fails to protect the content, content owners
may ask that such DRM softwares ability to access new DRM-protected content be revoked. Revocation may also prevent renewal
of such DRM-protected content already in your device. Revocation of such DRM software does not affect the use of content
protected with other types of DRM or the use of non-DRM-protected content.
Digital rights management (DRM) protected content comes with an associated licence that defines your rights to use the content.
If your device has OMA DRM-protected content, to back up both the licences and the content, use the backup feature of Nokia
Ovi Suite.
Other transfer methods may not transfer the licences which need to be restored with the content for you to be able to continue
the use of OMA DRM-protected content after the device memory is formatted. You may also need to restore the licences in case
the files on your device get corrupted.
If your device has WMDRM-protected content, both the licences and the content will be lost if the device memory is formatted.

limit your ability to use the same content on your device again. For more information, contact your service provider.

							The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times, but it will eventually wear out. When the talk and standby times
are noticeably shorter than normal, replace the battery.
Battery safety
Always switch the device off and disconnect the charger before removing the battery. When you unplug a charger or an
accessory, hold and pull the plug, not the cord.
When your charger is not in use, unplug it from the electrical plug and the device. Do not leave a fully charged battery connected
to a charger, as overcharging may shorten the battery’s lifetime. If left unused, a fully charged battery will lose its charge over
time.
Always 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.
Accidental short-circuiting can happen when a metallic object touches the metal strips on the battery, for example, if you carry
a spare battery in your pocket. Short-circuiting may damage the battery or the connecting object.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as they may explode. Dispose of batteries according to local regulations. Recycle when
possible. Do not dispose as household waste.
Do not dismantle, cut, open, crush, bend, puncture, or shred cells or batteries. If a battery leaks, do not let battery liquid touch
skin or eyes. If this happens, immediately flush the affected areas with water, or seek medical help.
Do not modify, remanufacture, attempt to insert foreign objects into the battery, or immerse or expose it to water or other
liquids. Batteries may explode if damaged.
Use the battery and charger for their intended purposes only. Improper use, or use of unapproved batteries or incompatible
chargers may present a risk of fire, explosion, or other hazard, and may invalidate any approval or warranty. If you believe the
battery or charger is damaged, take it to a service centre for inspection before continuing to use it. Never use a damaged battery
or charger. Only use the charger indoors.
