your mobile device uses a non-removabl e main battery (as stated in your product
information), details related to handling and replacing your battery should be
disregarded—the battery should only be replaced by a Motorola-approved service facility,
and any attempt to remove or replace your battery may damage the product.
Important: Handle and store batteries properly to avoid injury or damage.
battery safety issues arise from improper handling of batteries, and particularly from the
continued use of damaged batteries.

form of your battery.
• Don’t use tools, sharp objects, or excessive force to insert or remove the battery
as this can damage the battery.
• Don’t let the mobile device or battery come in contact with liquids.*

damage to the mobile device caused by non-Motorola batteries and/or chargers. To help you
identify authentic Motorola batteries from non-original or counterfeit batteries (that may not
have adequate safety protection), Motorola provides holograms on its batteries. You should
confirm that any battery you purchase has a “Motorola Original” hologram.
If you see a message on your display such as
Unable to Charge
•
Remove the battery and inspect it to confirm that it has a “Motorola Original” hologram;
•
If there is no hologram, the battery is not a Motorola battery;
•
If there is a hologram, replace the battery and try charging it again;
•
If the message remains, contact a Motorola authorized service center.
Warning:
Use of a non-Motorola battery or charger may present a risk of fire, explosion,
leakage, or other hazard.
Proper and safe battery disposal and recycling:
important for safety, it benefits the environment. You can recycle your used batteries in many
retail or service provider locations. Additional information on proper disposal and recycling
can be found at
Disposal:
Promptly dispose of used batteries in accordance with local
regulations. Contact your local recycling center or national recycling organizations
for more information on how to dispose of batteries.
Warning:
Never dispose of batteries in a fire because they may explode.

Seizures, Blackouts & Eyestrain
To reduce eyestrain and avoid headaches, it is always a good idea to hold the screen a
comfortable distance from your eyes, use in a well-lit area, and take frequent breaks.
Some people may be susceptible to seizures or blackouts (even if they have never had one
before) when exposed to flashing lights or light patterns, such as when playing video games,
or watching videos with flashing-light effects.
Discontinue use and consult a physician if any of the following symptoms occur: seizures,
blackout, convulsion, eye or muscle twitching, loss of awareness, or disorientation.
If you or someone in your family has experienced seizures or blackouts, please consult with
your physician before using an application that produces flashing-light effects on your mobile
device.

Caution About High Volume Usage
Jan. 12. 2012
Warning:
Exposure to loud noise from any source for extended periods of
time may affect your hearing. The louder the volume sound level, the less
time is required before your hearing could be affected. To protect your
hearing:
•
Limit the amount of time you use headsets or headphones at high volume.
•
Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy surroundings.
•
Turn the volume down if you can’t hear people speaking near you.
If you experience hearing discomfort, including the sensation of pressure or fullness in your
ears, ringing in your ears, or muffled speech, you should stop listening to the device through
your headset or headphones and have your hearing checked.
For more information about hearing, see our website at

Obey all posted signs when using mobile devices in public areas.
Potentially Explosive Areas
Potentially explosive areas are often, but not always, posted and can include blasting areas,
fueling stations, fueling areas (such as below decks on boats), fuel or chemical transfer or
storage facilities, or areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain dust,
or metal powders.
When you are in such an area, turn off your mobile device, and do not remove, install, or
charge batteries, unless it is a radio product type especially qualified for use in such areas
and certified as “Intrinsically Safe” (for example, Factory Mutual, CSA, or UL approved). In
such areas, sparks can occur and cause an explosion or fire.

Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
Exposure to RF Energy
Your mobile device contains a transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and
transmits RF energy. When you communicate with your mobile device, the system handling
your call controls the power level at which your mobile device transmits.
Your mobile device is designed to comply with local regulatory requirements in your country
concerning exposure of human beings to RF energy.
RF Energy Operational Precautions
For optimal mobile device performance, and to be sure that human exposure to RF energy
does not exceed the guidelines set forth in the relevant standards, always follow these
instructions and precautions:
•
When placing or receiving a phone call, hold your mobile device just like you would a
landline phone.
•
If you wear the mobile device on your body, always place the mobile device in a
Motorola-supplied or approved accessory (e.g. clip, holder, holster, case or arm band). If
you do not use a body-worn accessory supplied or approved by Motorola, ensure that
whatever product is used is free of any metal and that it positions the mobile device at
least 2.5 cm (1 inch) away from the body.
•
Using accessories not supplied or approved by Motorola may cause your mobile device to
exceed RF energy exposure guidelines. For a list of Motorola-supplied or approved
accessories, visit our website at:

RF Energy Inte rference/Compatibility
Jan. 12. 2012
Nearly every electronic device is subject to RF energy interference from external sources if
inadequately shielded, designed, or otherwise configured for RF energy compatibility. In
some circumstances, your mobile device may cause interference with other devices.
Follow Instructions t o Avoid Int erference Problems
Turn off your mobile device in any location where posted notices instruct you to do so, such
as hospitals or health care facilities.
In an aircraft, turn off your mobile device whenever instructed to do so by airline staff. If your
mobile device offers an airplane mode or similar feature, consult airline staff about using it in
flight.
Medical Devices
If you have a medical device, including an implantable medical device such as a pacemaker
or defibrillator, consult your healthcare provider and the device manufacturer’s directions
before using this mobile device.
Persons with implantable medical devices should observe the following precautions:
•
ALWAYS keep the mobile device more than 20 centimeters (8 inches) from the
implantable medical devic e when the mobile device is turned ON.
•
DO NOT carry the mobile device in the breast pocket.
•
Use the ear opposite the implantable medical device to minimize the potential for
interference.
•
Turn OFF the mobile device immediately if you have any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place.
Specific Absorption Rate (ICNIRP)
SAR (ICNIRP)
YOUR MOBILE DEVICE MEETS INTERNATIONAL
GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits
for exposure to radio waves (radio frequency electromagnetic fields) recommended by
international guidelines. The guidelines were developed by an independent scientific
organization (ICNIRP) and include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety
of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The radio wave exposure guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile devices is 2 W/kg.
