■
Life of the battery pack
The battery pack is a consumable part. The usage duration of the battery per one charge
decreases gradually each time the battery is recharged. When the usage duration per one
charge becomes about half that of a new battery pack, the life of the battery pack is assumed
to be almost over. It is recommended that you replace the battery pack ahead of time.
Depending on the usage condition, the battery pack may be inflated as it comes to the end of
its life. This is not a malfunction.
If you continue using i-
α
ppli or talking on the videophone for a long period of time with the
battery being charged, the life of the battery pack may become shorter.
Return all spent battery packs to NTT DoCoMo or a dealer, or a recycling
shop to protect the environment.
