Battery charging

New batteries are not fully charged. Plug the battery charger into your phone and an electrical outlet. Your phone might take several seconds to start charging the battery.

To charge using the charger:

1Insert the charger into the USB connector on your phone as shown.

2Plug the other end of the charger into the appropriate electrical outlet.

3When your phone displays Charge Complete, remove the charger.

When you charge the battery, the battery level indicator at the upper right of the screen shows charging progress. At least one segment of the indicator must be visible to ensure full phone functionality while charging.

Tip: Motorola batteries have circuitry that protects the battery from damage from overcharging. Of course, unplugging the charger from the wall will avoid current drain.

To charge from your computer:

You can charge your phone’s

battery by connecting a cable from your phone’s mini-USB port to a highpower USB connector on a computer (not a low-power one, such as the USB connector on your keyboard or bus- powered USB hub). Typically, USB high- power connectors are located directly on your computer.

Note: The phone will be charged at a slower rate than it is charged with the rapid charger.
