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.
