battery charging
New batteries are not fully charged. Plug the battery charger into your phone and an electrical outlet. Your phone might take several seconds to start charging the battery. Your display shows
Charge Complete
when finished.
Tip:
Relax, you can’t overcharge your battery. It will perform best after you fully charge and discharge it a few times.
You can charge your battery by connecting a cable from your phone's mini-USB port to a USB port on a computer. Both your phone and the computer must be turned on, and your computer must have the correct software drivers installed. Cables and software drivers are available in Motorola Original data kits, sold separately.
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.
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.
