Battery Use

Battery performance depends on many factors, including your
wireless carrier's network configuration; signal strength; the
temperature at which you operate your phone; the features and/or
settings you select and use; and your voice, data, and other
application usage patterns.
Battery Care
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 long
periods of 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.
• Over extended periods of time, 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 product must
be disposed of properly and may need to be recycled.
