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 mobile device or battery come in contact with water.* Water can get into the mobile device’s circuits, leading to corrosion. If the mobile device 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 jewellery, stay in prolonged contact with the battery contact points, the battery could become very hot.
•Don’t place your mobile device or battery near a heat source.* High temperatures can cause the battery to swell, leak or malfunction.
•Don’t dry a wet or damp battery with an appliance or heat source, such as
a hair dryer or microwave oven.
DOs
•Do avoid leaving your mobile device in your car in high temperatures.*
•Do avoid dropping the battery or mobile device.* Dropping these items, especially on a hard surface, can potentially cause damage.*
•Do contact your service provider or Motorola if your mobile device or
battery has been damaged from dropping or high temperatures.
*Note: 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
