WARNING

Memory Effect (Reduced Charge Capacity)

Memory effect is a phenomenon which causes a temporary loss in
battery capacity or voltage due to repetitive shallow discharging or
long-term overcharging. This memory effect has been virtually
eliminated from Motorola batteries through the use of new cell
technology.

Battery Disposal

For disposal, nickel-cadmium sealed rechargeable batteries should
be delivered to an authorized metals-reclamation dealer.

WARNING
This product is powered by a nickel-cadmium rechargeable battery.
At the end of its useful life, the battery can be recycled. However,
recycling facilities may not be available in all areas. Under various
state or local laws, the battery must be recycled or disposed of
properly, and cannot be disposed of in landfills or incinerators. In
addition, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations
classify used nickel-cadmium batteries as hazardous waste, unless
certain exemptions apply.
28 Battery Information
A sustained high-rate discharge (for example,
a paper clip placed accidently across the
battery contacts) may permanently damage
the battery, void the battery warranty, and
create a burn or fire hazard.
Do not dispose of any batteries in a fire as
they may explode!
