Battery Tips
Battery life depends on the network, signal strength,
temperature, features, and accessories you use.
•
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, such as a refrigerator.
•
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.

because they may explode.
