Getting Started
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, such as a refrigerator.
• 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
included in the gray-edged pages at the back of this guide.

Getting Started
Charging the Battery
New batteries are shipped partially charged. Before
you can use your phone, you need to install and charge
the battery as described below. Some batteries
perform best after several full charge/discharge cycles.
Tip: You can safely leave the travel charger connected to
the phone after charging is complete. This will
not damage
the battery.
Note: When you charge the battery, the battery level
indicator in the upper right corner of the display shows how
much of the charging process is complete. At least 1
segment of the battery level indicator must be visible to
ensure full phone functionality while charging.
Action
1
Plug the travel
charger into your
phone with the
release tab facing
up.
2 Plug the other end of the travel charger into the
appropriate electrical outlet.
3 When your phone indicates Charge Complete , press
the release tab and remove the travel charger.
