Nokia battery authentication

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.
