Battery Use & Safety

Battery Use & Saf ety

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.

DON’Ts

• Don’t disassemble, crush, puncture, shred, or otherwise attempt to
change the form of your battery.

• Don’t let the mobile device or battery come in contact with water.*

Water

Motorola provides holograms on its batteries. Consumers should confirm that any
battery they purchase has a “Motorola Original” hologram.

Motorola recommends you always use Motorola-branded batteries and
chargers.

Motorola mobile devices are designed to work with Motorola batteries.

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.

Important:

Motorola’s warranty does not cover damage to the mobile device caused

•

Motorola batteries and charging systems have circuitry that protects the battery
from damage from overcharging.

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:

•

Type or read texts.

•

Enter or review written data.

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 is dropped on a hard surface or 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

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

For indoor use only.

Listening at full volume to music or voice through a headset may
damage your hearing.

Using accessories not supplied or approved by Motorola may cause your mobile
device to exceed RF energy exposure guidelines. For a list of Motorola-supplied
or approved accessories, visit our Web site at:

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.

Specific Absorption Rate (IEEE)

SAR (IEEE)

Your model wireless phone meets the governmental
requirements for exposure to radio waves.

Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured to not exceed limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by
the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government and by the
Canadian regulatory authorities. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines
and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The
guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific
organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The
standards include a substantial safety margin designed for the safety of all persons,

While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various mobile devices
and at various positions, they meet the governmental requirements for safe
exposure. Please note that improvements to this product model could cause
differences in the SAR value for later products; in all cases, products are designed to
be within the guidelines.
Additional information on SAR can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications
& Internet Association (CTIA) Web site:

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

results for your hearing device. The more immune your hearing aid is, the less likely
you are to experience interference noise from mobile phones.
