Battery Use & Battery Safety
• Motorolarecommends you always
use Motorola-branded batteries
and chargers.
The warranty does
not cover damage caused by non-
Motorola batteries and/or chargers.
Caution: Use of an unqualified
battery or charger may present a risk
of fire, explosion, leakage, or other
hazard. Improper battery use, or use
of a damaged battery, may result in a
fire, explosion, or other hazard.
• Battery usage by children should be
supervised.
•Important: Motorola mobile devices
are designed to work best with
qualified 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 bears a
12

• If there is no hologram, the
battery is not a qualified battery;
• If there is a hologram, replace the
battery and retry charging it;
• If the message remains, contact
a Motorola Authorized Service
Center.
• New batteries or batteries stored for
a long time may take more time to
charge.
•Chargingprecautions: 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. Always take your mobile
device with you when you leave your
vehicle
• When storing your battery, keep it in
a cool, dry place.
• It is normal over time for battery life
to decrease, and for the battery to
exhibit shorter runtime between
charges or require more frequent or
longer charging times.
•Avoid damage to battery and
mobile device.
Do not disassemble,
open, crush, bend, deform, puncture,
shred, or submerge the battery or
mobile device. Avoid dropping the
battery or mobile device, especially
on a hard surface. If your battery or
mobile device has been subjected to
such damage, take it to a Motorola

12
essentials
an appliance or heat source, such as
a hair dryer or microwave oven.
•Usecare when handlingacharged
battery
—particularly when placing it
inside a pocket, purse, or other
container with metal objects.
Contact with metal objects (such as
jewelry, keys, beaded chains) could
complete an electrical circuit (short
circuit), causing the battery to
become very hot, which could cause
damage or injury.
Promptly dispose of used batteries in
accordance with local regulations.
Contact your local recycling center
for proper battery disposal.
Warning: Never dispose of batteries in a
fire because they may explode.

chargers. The warranty does
not cover damage caused by
non-Motorola batteries and/or chargers.
• New batteries or batteries stored for a
