How to Change the Battery of a Nokia 6085 Cell Phone

The rechargeable battery in your Nokia 6085 is designed to last a long time. However, like all batteries, it is eventually prone to failure. If your Nokia's battery will no longer hold a charge, it's probably time to replace it. Nokia recommends using factory-replacement batteries for your 6085, to ensure compatibility. Using an aftermarket or substitute battery may cause problems with your device, according to Nokia. A genuine Nokia replacement battery can be ordered from Nokia's website or from any Nokia cell phone retailer.

Instructions

1. Slide your finger against the phone's back cover, pushing it toward the bottom of the phone. The back cover will slide off.

2. Insert your fingernail underneath the old battery; pry it up and remove it.

3. Insert the replacement battery. Line up the gold contacts on the battery with the phone's terminal (near the bottom).

4. Reattach the phone's back cover. Push it toward the top of the phone to close it.
