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.
