Nokia battery authentication guidelines

Always use original Nokia batteries for your safety. To check that you are getting
an original Nokia battery, purchase it from an authorized Nokia dealer, look for
the Nokia Original Enhancements logo on the packaging, and inspect the
hologram label using the following steps:

Successful completion of the four steps is not a total assurance of the
authenticity of the battery. If you have any reason to believe that your battery is
not an authentic original Nokia battery, you should refrain from using it, and take
it to the nearest authorized Nokia service point or dealer for assistance. Your
authorized Nokia service point or dealer will inspect the battery for authenticity.
If authenticity cannot be verified, return the battery to the place of purchase.

Authenticate hologram

1. When looking at the hologram on the label,
you should see the Nokia connecting hands
symbol from one angle and the Nokia Original
Enhancements logo when looking from another
angle.

2. When you angle the hologram left, right, down,
and up, you should see 1, 2, 3, and 4 dots on each
side respectively.

3. Scratch the side of the label to reveal a 20-digit
code, for example, 12345678919876543210.
Turn the battery so that the numbers are facing
upwards. The 20-digit code reads starting from
the number at the top row followed by the bottom
row.

4. Confirm that the 20-digit code is valid by
following the instructions at www.nokia.com/
batterycheck.

To create a text message enter the 20-digit code,
for example, 12345678919876543210, and send
to +44 7786 200276.

National and international operator charges will
apply.

You should receive a message indicating whether
the code can be authenticated.

What if your battery is not authentic?

If you cannot confirm that your Nokia battery with the hologram on the label is
an authentic Nokia battery, please do not use the battery. Take it to the nearest
authorized Nokia service point or dealer for assistance. The use of a battery that
is not approved by the manufacturer may be dangerous and may result in poor
performance and damage to your device and its enhancements. It may also
invalidate any approval or warranty applying to the device.
