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 batteries 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.
