battery tips
DR
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.

AFT
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:
because they may explode.
Before using your phone, read the battery safety information in the “Safety and General Information” section included in this guide.
