Battery Use & Battery Safety

•

Motorola recommends you always use Motorola-branded batteries and chargers. The warranty does not cover damage caused by nonMotorola batteries and/or chargers. Caution: Use of an unqualified battery or charger may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard. Improper battery use, or use of a damaged battery, may result in a fire, explosion, or other hazard.

•

Battery usage by children should be supervised.

•

Important: Motorola mobile devices are designed to work best with qualified batteries. If you see a message on your display such as Invalid Battery

Essentials

Unable to Charge

, take the

following steps:

•

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

•

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

•

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

•

If the message remains, contact a Motorola Authorized Service Center.

•

New batteries or batteries stored for a long time may take more time to charge.

•

Charging precautions: When

charging your battery, keep it near room temperature. Never expose batteries to temperatures below 0°C (32°F) or above 45°C

(113°F) when charging. Always take your mobile device with you when you leave your vehicle

•

When storing your battery, keep it in a cool, dry place.

•

It is normal over time for battery life to decrease, and for the battery to exhibit shorter runtime between charges or require more frequent or longer charging times.

•

Avoid damage to battery and mobile device.

Do not disassemble, open, crush, bend, deform, puncture, shred, or submerge the battery or mobile device. Avoid dropping the battery or mobile device, especially on a hard surface. If your battery or mobile device has been subjected to such damage, take it to a Motorola Authorized Service Center before using.

with an appliance or heat source, such as a hair dryer or microwave oven.

•

Use care when handling a charged battery

when placing it inside a pocket, purse, or other container with metal objects. Contact with metal objects (e.g., jewelry, keys, beaded chains) could complete an electrical circuit (short circuit), causing the battery to become very hot, which could cause damage or injury.

Promptly dispose of used batteries in accordance with local regulations. Contact your local recycling center for proper battery disposal.

Warning: a fire because they may explode.

, remove the charger.

Charge

When you charge the battery, the battery level indicator at the upper right of the screen shows charging progress. At least one segment of the indicator must be visible to ensure full phone functionality while charging.

Tip:

Motorola batteries have circuitry that protects the battery from damage from overcharging. Of course, unplugging the charger from the wall will avoid current drain.

To charge from your computer: You can charge your phone’s

battery by connecting a cable from your phone’s mini-USB port to a highpower USB connector on a computer (not a low-power one, such as the USB connector on your keyboard or buspowered USB hub). Typically, USB highpower connectors are located directly on your computer.
