Only qualified personnel may install or repair the Product.
Batteries, chargers and other accessories
If the Product has an internal battery, this is intended to be rechargeable and non removable, being
intended for use when supplied with power from the Vertu Mains charger (AC-32V), or from a suitable
computer. Do not attempt to remove the battery, as you may damage it.
The full performance of a new battery is achieved only after two or three complete charge and discharge
cycles. The battery in a device can be charged and discharged hundreds of times, but it will eventually
wear out. When you believe that the performance of the device has deteriorated (for example, when the
talk and standby times on the phone are noticeably shorter than normal), replace the battery if it is
removable, or, if it is non-removable, take the associated device to the nearest authorised service facility.
Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
Never use any charger or battery that is damaged.
Use only Vertu-approved batteries, and recharge your battery only with Vertu approved chargers
designated for the device.
Use of an unapproved battery or charger may result in a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other
hazard. Do not connect other, incompatible devices to the chargers.
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.
Do not dismantle, cut, open, crush, bend, deform, puncture, or shred cells or batteries. In the event of a
battery leak, do not allow the liquid to come in contact with the skin or eyes. In the event of such a leak,
flush your skin or eyes immediately 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. Improper battery use may result in a fire, explosion, or other hazard. If the device
or battery is dropped, especially on a hard surface, and you believe that the battery has been damaged,
take it to the nearest service facility for inspection before continuing to use it. If the phone battery has not
been used for a long time, then, in order to begin charging it again, you may need to connect the charger,
and then disconnect and reconnect it. If the battery is completely discharged, it may take several minutes
before the charging indicator appears on the display or before any calls can be made.
Keep your device dry
Your Product is not fully water-resistant, so keep it dry.
SIM card
The AsterT has been designed for use with a microSIM card. NanoSIMcards can be supported with an
adaptor available in the sales pack. Standard SIMcards are not supported.
The use of an incompatible SIM card or an adaptor not supplied by Vertu may damage the card or
the phone, and may corrupt data stored on the card.
