battery use & safety

Motorola recommends 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 Motorola “Original Equipment” hologram;

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 Authorised Service Centre.

New batteries or batteries stored for a long time may take more time to charge.

Charging precautions: 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 Authorised Service Centre before using. Do not attempt to dry it with an appliance or heat source, such as a hair dryer or microwave oven.

Use care when handling a charged battery—particularly when placing it inside a pocket, purse or other container with metal objects. Contact with metal objects (such as jewellery, 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 centre for proper battery disposal.

Warning: Never dispose of batteries in a fire because they may explode.
