Always use Motorola Original
batteries and chargers. The
warranty does not cover damage
caused by non-Motorola batteries
and/or chargers.
•
New batteries or batteries stored for a long
time may take more time to charge.
•
When charging your battery, keep it near room
temperature.
•
When storing your battery, keep it uncharged
in a cool, dark, dry place.
•
Never expose batteries to temperatures below
-10°C (14°F) or above 45°C (113°F). Always
take your phone with you when you leave your
vehicle.
•
It is normal for batteries to gradually wear
down and require longer charging times. If you
notice a change in your battery life, it is
probably time to purchase a new battery.

Contact your local recycling center for proper
battery disposal.
Warning:
Never dispose of batteries in a fire
because they may explode.
Before using your phone, read the battery safety

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.
To charge from your computer:
You can also charge your phone’s battery by
connecting a cable from your phone’s mini-USB port to
a high-power USB connector on a computer (not a
low-power one, such as the USB connector on your
keyboard or bus-powered USB hub). Typically, USB
high-power connectors are located directly on your
computer.
Both your phone and your computer must be turned
on, and you must have correct software drivers
installed on your computer. Cables and software
drivers are available in Motorola Original
sold separately.
