Caution: To prevent injuries or burns, do not allow metal objects to
contact or short-circuit the battery terminals.
To maximise your battery's performance:
• Always use Motorola Original batteries and battery chargers.
The phone warranty does not cover damage caused from
using non-Motorola batteries and/or battery chargers.
• New batteries or batteries that have been stored for a long
time may require a longer 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.
The rechargeable batteries that power this phone must
be disposed of properly and may need to be recycled.
Refer to your battery's label for battery type. Contact
your local recycling centre for proper disposal methods.
Warning: Never dispose of batteries in a fire because they may
explode.
