Maintenance and Troubleshooting

This chapter includes instructions on cleaning and storing the device, and provides troubleshooting solutions
for potential problems during operation.

10.1 Maintaining the MC40

For trouble-free service, observe the following tips when using the MC40:
• Do not scratch the screen of the MC40. When working with the MC40, use only a finger. Never use an actual
pen or pencil or other sharp object on the surface of the MC40 screen.
• The touch-sensitive screen of the MC40 is glass. Do not to drop the MC40 or subject it to strong impact.
• Protect the MC40 from temperature extremes. Do not leave it on the dashboard of a car on a hot day, and
keep it away from heat sources.
• Do not store or use the MC40 in any location that is dusty, damp, or wet.
• Use a soft lens cloth to clean the MC40. If the surface of the MC40 screen becomes soiled, clean it with a soft
cloth moistened with a diluted window-cleaning solution.
• Periodically replace the rechargeable battery to ensure maximum battery life and product performance. Battery
life depends on individual usage patterns.

10.2 Battery Safety Guidelines

• The area in which the units are charged should be clear of debris and combustible materials or chemicals.
Particular care should be taken where the device is charged in a non commercial environment.
• Follow battery usage, storage, and charging guidelines found in this guide.
• Improper battery use may result in a fire, explosion, or other hazard.
• To charge the mobile device battery, the battery and charger temperatures must be between +32 ºF and +104 ºF
(0 ºC and +40 ºC)
• Do not use incompatible batteries and chargers. Use of an incompatible battery or charger may present a risk
of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard. If you have any questions about the compatibility of a battery or a
charger, contact Motorola Solutions Global Customer Support Center.
• For devices that utilize a USB port as a charging source, the device shall only be connected to products that bear
the USB-IF logo or have completed the USB-IF compliance program.
• Do not disassemble or open, crush, bend or deform, puncture, or shred.
• Severe impact from dropping any battery-operated device on a hard surface could cause the battery to overheat.
• Do not short circuit a battery or allow metallic or conductive objects to contact the battery terminals.
• Do not modify or remanufacture, attempt to insert foreign objects into the battery, immerse or expose to water or
other liquids, or expose to fire, explosion, or other hazard.
• Do not leave or store the equipment in or near areas that might get very hot, such as in a parked vehicle or near a
radiator or other heat source. Do not place battery into a microwave oven or dryer.
• Battery usage by children should be supervised.
