Always use Motorola Original® battery chargers. The phone warranty does not cover damage caused from using non-Motorola battery chargers.

New batteries or batteries that have been stored for a long time may require a longer initial charge time.

Maintain the battery at or near room temperature when charging.

Do not 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.

When you do not intend to use a battery for a while, store it uncharged in a cool, dark, dry place, such as a refrigerator.

Batteries gradually wear down and require longer charging times. This is normal. If you charge your battery regularly and notice a decrease in talk time or an increase in charging time, then it is probably time to purchase a new battery.

Getting Started

The rechargeable batteries that power this product must be disposed of properly and may need to be

recycled. Refer to your battery’s label for battery type. Contact your local recycling center for proper disposal methods. Never dispose of batteries in a fire because they may explode.
