Battery Tips
Battery life depends on the network, signal strength, temperature,
features, and accessories you use.
• Always use Motorola Original batteries and
chargers. The warranty does not cover damage
caused by non-Motorola batteries and/or chargers.
• New batteries or batteries stored for a long time
may take more time to charge.
• When charging your battery, keep it near room temperature.
• When storing your battery, keep it uncharged in a cool, dark,
dry place.
• Never 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.
• It is normal for batteries to gradually wear down and require
longer charging times. If you notice a change in your battery life,
it is probably time to purchase a new battery.
Contact your local recycling center for proper
battery disposal.
Warning: Never dispose of batteries in a fire because they
may explode.
Before using your phone, read the battery safety information in the
“Safety and General Information” section.
