Charging Batteries

The Battery Indicator

In the upper right corner of your phone’s display, there is a battery indicator ﬁlled with three segments. The more segments you see, the greater the charge.

•The border of the battery icon will ﬂash during charging.

•When the battery is fully charged, the battery icon will stop ﬂashing and become solid.

Battery Storage and Disposal

To prolong the life of batteries, avoid exposing them to temperatures below -10°C (14°F) or above 45°C (113°F). It is a good idea to take your phone with you when you leave your car. Never dispose of batteries in ﬁre.

Caution: To prevent injuries or burns, do not allow metal objects to contact or short circuit the battery terminals.

Expert Performance (E•P®)Charging System

The E•P system enables your phone’s built-in charger to communicate with installed batteries and tailor its charging cycle to optimize performance. If you see Invalid Battery when you power up the phone, the built-in charger is not able to communicate with the battery and cannot charge it. There are several possible reasons for this message. The most likely one is that the battery is not a Motorola original and it does not have the appropriate E•P technology. We recommend that you use only Motorola original batteries and accessories and that you store your batteries in their protective clips when not in use.
