Nokia gives no indication of the extent or velocity of this 'dislodgement' but assures us that "No serious injuries or property damage have been reported". And it says, reassuringly that "all of the approximately 100 incidents have occurred while charging the battery. According to Nokia's knowledge this issue does not affect any other use of the mobile device." Nokia says it is "working closely with Matsushita and will be cooperating with relevant authorities to investigate this situation." Meanwhile, it is offering to replace the batteries at no charge to consumers, but note that the offer does not apply to all BL-5C batteries some 300 million of which have been supplied by a number of manufacturers.
