• If there is a hologram, replace the battery
and retry charging it;
• Contact a Motorola Authorized Service
Center.
• New batteries or batteries stored for a long
time may take more time to charge.

expose batteries to temperatures below 0°C
(32°F) or above 45°C (113°F) when charging.
Always take your mobile device with you
when you leave your vehicle.

14 essentials
• Avoid damage to battery and mobile
device. Do not disassemble, open, crush,
bend, deform, puncture, shred, or submerge
the battery or mobile device. Avoid dropping
the battery or mobile device, especially on a
hard surface. If your battery or mobile device
has been subjected to such damage, take it to
a Motorola Authorized Service Center before
using. Do not attempt to dry it with an
appliance or heat source, such as a hair dryer
or microwave oven.
• Use care when handling a charged
battery—particularly when placing it inside a
pocket, purse, or other container with metal
objects. Contact with metal objects (e.g.,
jewelry, keys, beaded chains) could complete
an electrical circuit (short circuit), causing the
battery to become very hot, which could
cause damage or injury.
