Safety, Regulatory & Legal

Battery Use & Safety

Battery Use & Safety

The following battery use and safety information applies to all Motorola mobile devices. If
your mobile device uses a non-removable main battery (as stated in your product
information), details related to handling and replacing your battery should be
disregarded—the battery should only be replaced by a Motorola-approved service facility,
and any attempt to remove or replace your battery may damage the product.

Important: Handle and store batteries properly to avoid injury or damage.

Most
battery issues arise from improper handling of batteries, and particularly from the continued
use of damaged batteries.

Important: Motorola recommends you always use Motorola-branded batteries and
chargers for quality assurance and safeguards.

Motorola’s warranty does not cover
damage to the mobile device caused by non-Motorola batteries and/or chargers. To help you
identify authentic Motorola batteries from non-original or counterfeit batteries (that may not
have adequate safety protection), Motorola provides holograms on its batteries. You should
confirm that any battery you purchase has a “Motorola Original” hologram.
If you see a message on your display such as

Invalid Battery

or

Unable to Charge

,

take the following steps:

•

Remove the battery and inspect it to confirm that it has a “Motorola Original” hologram;

•

If there is no hologram, the battery is not a Motorola battery;

•

If there is a hologram, replace the battery and try charging it again;

•

If the message remains, contact a Motorola authorized service center.

Warning:

Use of a non-Motorola battery or charger may present a risk of fire, explosion,

Third Party Accessories

Use of third party accessories, including but not limited to batteries, chargers, headsets,
covers, cases, screen protectors and memory cards, may impact your mobile device’s
performance. In some circumstances, third party accessories can be dangerous and may void
your mobile device’s warranty. For a list of Motorola accessories, visit
www.motorola.com/products

Driving Precautions

Responsible and safe driving is your primary responsibility when behind the wheel of a
vehicle. Using a mobile device or accessory for a call or other application while driving may
cause distraction. Using a mobile device or accessory may be prohibited or restricted in
certain areas, always obey the laws and regulations on the use of these products.

While driving, NEVER:

If you have experienced seizures or blackouts, or if you have a family history of such
occurrences, please consult with your physician before playing videos or games or enabling a
flashing-lights feature (if available) on your mobile device.
Discontinue use and consult a physician if any of the following symptoms occur: convulsion,
eye or muscle twitching, loss of awareness, involuntary movements, or disorientation. It is
always a good idea to hold the screen away from your eyes, leave the lights on in the room,
take a 15-minute break every hour, and stop use if you are tired.

Caution About High Volume Usage

Warning:

Exposure to loud noise from any source for extended periods of time may affect
your hearing. The louder the volume sound level, the less time is required before your hearing
could be affected. To protect your hearing:

•

Limit the amount of time you use headsets or headphones at high volume.

Glass Parts

Some parts of your mobile device may be made of glass. This glass could break if the product
receives a substantial impact. If glass breaks, do not touch or attempt to remove. Stop using
your mobile device until the glass is replaced by a qualified service center.

Operational Warnings

Obey all posted signs when using mobile devices in public areas.

Potentially Explosive Atmospheres

Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often, but not always, posted and can
include fueling areas, such as below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage
facilities, or areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain dust, or metal
powders.

Do not dispose of your battery or mobile device with your household
waste. See “Recycling” for more information.

Do not use tools.

For indoor use only.

RF Energy Interference/Compatibility

Nearly every electronic device is subject to RF energy interference from external sources if
inadequately shielded, designed, or otherwise configured for RF energy compatibility. In
some circumstances, your mobile device may cause interference with other devices.

Follow Instructions to Avoid Interference Problems

Turn off your mobile device in any location where posted notices instruct you to do so.
In an aircraft, turn off your mobile device whenever instructed to do so by airline staff. If your
mobile device offers an airplane mode or similar feature, consult airline staff about using it in
flight.

Implantable Medical Devices

If you have an implantable medical device, such as a pacemaker or defibrillator, consult your
physician before using this mobile device.

Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with the device transmitting
at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. The highest SAR values
under the FCC guidelines for your device model are listed below:

During use, the actual SAR values for your device are usually well below the values stated.
This is because, for purposes of system efficiency and to minimize interference on the
network, the operating power of your mobile device is automatically decreased when full
power is not needed for the call. The lower the power output of the device, the lower its SAR
value.

Your Location

Location-based information includes information that can be used to determine the
approximate location of a mobile device. Mobile devices which are connected to a wireless
network transmit location-based information. Devices enabled with GPS or AGPS technology
also transmit location-based information. Additionally, if you use applications that require
location-based information (e.g. driving directions), such applications transmit location-based
information. This location-based information may be shared with third parties, including your
wireless service provider, applications providers, Motorola, and other third parties providing
services.

Emergency Calls

When you make an emergency call, the cellular network may activate the AGPS technology
in your mobile device to tell the emergency responders your approximate location.

• Get to know your Motorola mobile device and its features such as speed dial,

redial and voice dial.

If available, these features help you to place your call without

taking your attention off the road.

• When available, use a handsfree device.

If possible, add an additional layer of
convenience to your mobile device with one of the many Motorola Original handsfree
accessories available today.

• Position your mobile device within easy reach.

Be able to access your mobile
device without removing your eyes from the road. If you receive an incoming call at an
inconvenient time, if possible, let your voicemail answer it for you.

• Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving; if necessary,
suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions.

Rain, sleet,

snow, ice, and even heavy traffic can be hazardous.

• Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving.

Hearing Aid Compatibility with Mobile
Phones

Hearing Aid Compatibility

Some Motorola phones are measured for compatibility with hearing aids. If the box for your
particular model has “Rated for Hearing Aids” printed on it, the following explanation
applies.
When some mobile phones are used near some hearing devices (hearing aids and cochlear
implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices are
more immune than others to this interference noise, and phones also vary in the amount of
interference they generate.
The wireless telephone industry has developed ratings for some of their mobile phones, to
assist hearing device users in finding phones that may be compatible with their hearing
devices. Not all phones have been rated. Phones that are rated have the rating on their box or
