Battery Use - Motorola V60i User Manual

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 maximize 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.

proper disposal methods. Never dispose of batteries in a
fire because they may explode.
