Battery Use & Safety
Battery Use & Safety
Important: Handle and store batteries properly to avoid injury or
damage. Most battery issues arise from improper handling of
batteries, and particularly from the continued use of damaged
batteries.
DON’Ts
• Don’t disassemble, crush, puncture, shred, or otherwise
attempt to change the form of your battery.
• Don’t let the phone or battery come in contact with water.
Water can get into the phone’s circuits, leading to corrosion. If the
phone and/or battery get wet, have them checked by your service
provider or contact Motorola, even if they appear to be working
properly.*
• Don’t allow the battery to touch metal objects. If metal objects,
such as jewelry, stay in prolonged contact with the battery contact
points, the battery could become very hot.
• Don’t place your battery near a heat source. Excessive heat can
damage the phone or the battery. High temperatures can cause the
battery to swell, leak, or malfunction. Therefore:
• Do not dry a wet or damp battery with an appliance or heat source,
such as a hair dryer or microwave oven.
• Avoid leaving your phone in your car in high temperatures.*
DOs
• Do avoid dropping the battery or phone.
Dropping these items,
especially on a hard surface, can potentially cause damage.*

2
• Do contact your service provider or Motorola if your phone or
battery has been damaged from dropping or high
temperatures.
*Note:
If the product guide expressly states that your phone is
designed to resist damage from exposure to certain rugged conditions,
such as water immersion, rain, dust, high and low temperatures, shock,
or other conditions, do
not exceed the stated limits, and ensure the
stated precautions are taken. Always make sure that the battery
compartment is closed and secure to avoid direct exposure of the
battery to any of these conditions.
Important: Use Motorola Original products for quality assurance
and safeguards.
To aid consumers in identifying authentic Motorola
batteries from non-original or counterfeit batteries (that may not have
adequate safety protection), Motorola provides holograms on its
batteries. Consumers should confirm that any battery they purchase
has a “Motorola Original” hologram.
Motorola recommends you always use Motorola-branded
batteries and chargers.
Motorola mobile devices are designed to
work with Motorola batteries. If you see a message on your display
such as
Invalid Battery or Unable to Charge , take the
following steps:
• Remove the battery and inspect it to confirm that it has a
“Motorola Original” hologram;
• If there is no hologram, the battery is not a Motorola battery;
• If there is a hologram, replace the battery and retry charging it;
• If the message remains, contact a Motorola authorized service
center.
Important: Motorola’s warranty does not cover damage to the phone
caused by non-Motorola batteries and/or chargers.
Warning: Use of a non-Motorola battery or charger may present a risk
of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard.

Proper and safe battery disposal and recycling: Proper battery
disposal is not only important for safety, it benefits the environment.
Consumers may recycle their used batteries in many retail or service
provider locations. Additional information on proper disposal and
recycling may be found on the Web:
• www.motorola.com/recycling
• www.rbrc.org/call2recycle/ (in English only)
Disposal: Promptly dispose of used batteries in accordance
with local regulations. Contact your local recycling center or
national recycling organizations for more information on how
to dispose of batteries.
Warning: Never dispose of batteries in a fire because they may
explode.
Battery Charging
Battery Charging
Notes for charging your phone’s battery:
• When charging your battery, keep it near room temperature. Never
expose batteries to temperatures below 0°C (32°F) or above 45°C
(113°F) when charging.
• New batteries are not fully charged.
• New batteries or batteries stored for a long time may take more
time to charge.
• Motorola batteries and charging systems have circuitry that protects
the battery from damage from overcharging.

GPS & AGPS
GPS & AGPS
Your mobile device can use Global Positioning System (GPS) signals for
location-based applications. GPS uses satellites controlled by the U.S.
government that are subject to changes implemented in accordance
with the Department of Defense policy and the Federal Radio
Navigation Plan. These changes may affect the performance of
location technology on your mobile device.
Your mobile device can also use
Assisted Global Positioning System
(AGPS), which obtains information from the cellular network to improve
GPS performance. AGPS uses your wireless service provider's network
and therefore airtime, data charges, and/or additional charges may
apply in accordance with your service plan. Contact your wireless
service provider for details.
Your Location
Location-based information includes information that can be used to
determine the approximate location of a mobile device. Mobile phones
which are connected to a wireless network transmit location-based
information. Devices enabled with GPS or AGPS technology also
transmit location-based information. Additionally, if you use
applications that require location-based information (e.g. driving
directions), such applications transmit location-based information. This
location-based information may be shared with third parties, including

7
your wireless service provider, applications providers, Motorola, and
other third parties providing services.
Emergency Calls
When you make an emergency call, the cellular network may activate
the AGPS technology in your mobile device to tell the emergency
responders your approximate location.
AGPS has limitations and
might not work in your area . Therefore:
• Always tell the emergency responder your location to the best of
your ability; and
• Remain on the phone for as long as the emergency responder
instructs you.
Performance Tips
• Go outside and away from underground locations, covered vehicles,
structures with metal or concrete roofs, tall buildings, and foliage.
Indoor performance might improve if you move closer to windows,
but some window sun shielding films can block satellite signals.
• Move away from radios, entertainment equipment, and other
electronic devices.
Navigation
Navigation
Motorola strives to provide complete and accurate mapping
information, directions, and other navigational data, using a
combination of governmental and private location information sources.
These sources may contain inaccurate or incomplete data. In some
countries, complete information may not be available. Therefore, you
should visually confirm that the navigational instructions are consistent
with what you see. All drivers should pay attention to road conditions,
closures, traffic, and all other factors that may impact driving. Always
obey posted road signs.

Safety & General Information
Safety Information
This section contains important information on the safe and
efficient operation of your mobile device. Read this information
before using your mobile device.
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
Your mobile device contains a transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it
receives and transmits RF energy. When you communicate with your
mobile device, the system handling your call controls the power level
at which your mobile device transmits.
Your mobile device is designed to comply with local regulatory
requirements in your country concerning exposure of human beings to
RF energy.
Operational Precautions
For optimal mobile device performance, and to be sure that human
exposure to RF energy does not exceed the guidelines set forth in the
relevant standards, always follow these instructions and precautions.
Product Operation
When placing or receiving a phone call, hold your mobile device just
like you would a landline phone.
If you wear the mobile device on your body, always place the mobile
device in a Motorola-supplied or approved clip, holder, holster, case, or
body harness. If you do not use a body-worn accessory supplied or
approved by Motorola, keep the mobile device and its antenna at least
2.5 centimeters (1 inch) from your body when transmitting.
Using accessories not supplied or approved by Motorola may cause
your mobile device to exceed RF energy exposure guidelines. For a list
of Motorola-supplied or approved accessories, visit our Web site at:
www.motorola.com .
RF Energy Interference/Compatibility
Nearly every electronic device is subject to RF energy interference from
external sources if inadequately shielded, designed, or otherwise
