Battery Use and Maintenance

The Motorola Approved Lithium Ion chargers
provide optimum perfor mance. Other chargers may not fully charge the Lithium Ion battery or may yield a reduced number of lifetime charg e cycles.
Extreme temperatures degrade batter y performance. Do not store the battery where temperatures exceed 60°C (140° F) or fall below
-20°C (4°F ).
Lithium Ion bat teries have a self discharge rate and without use, lose about 1% of their charge per day.
The battery capacity is degraded if the battery is stored for long periods while fully charged. If long term storage is required, store at half capacity.
