Battery Use and Maintenance
• The Motorola iDEN Approved Lithium Ion
chargers provide optimum performance. Other
chargers may not fully charge the iDEN Lithium
Ion battery or may yield a reduced number of
lifetime charge cycles.
• Extreme temperatures degrade battery
performance. Do not store the battery where
temperatures exceed 140°F (60°C) or fall below
4°F (-20°C).
• 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.
Sleep Mode
Your phone uses Sleep mode to conser ve battery
power . With Sleep mode, after yo ur phone has
been idle for a specified interval, the display on
your phone will turn off.
You can s et your phone to enter Sleep mode after
1 minute, 3 minute s, 5 minute s, or 15 minutes of
inacti vity. See “D ispl ay/In fo Fe atur es” on pa ge 14 1.
Sleep mode turns off when you either press a key
or receive a call alert or phone call.
Holster
When you pl ac e yo ur i615 ph one i n t he hol ste r that

life. The holster contains a magnet that activates
Sleep mo de on your ph on e.
Note: Maintain a minimum distance of 1/4 inch
between the magnet and any media that
cont ains di gi t al i nf orm at io n, such a s c re di t
