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.
