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 liquids.* Liquids can get into the mobile device’s circuits, leading to corrosion.

•Don’t allow the battery to touch metal objects. If metal objects, such as jewelry, 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 mobile device or battery.* 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 by dropping, liquids or high temperatures.

*Note: Always make sure that the battery compartment and any connector covers are closed and secure to avoid direct exposure of the battery to any of these conditions, even if your product information states that your mobile device can resist damage from these conditions.

Important: Motorola recommends you always use Motorola-branded batteries and chargers for quality assurance and safeguards. Motorola’s warranty does not cover damage to the mobile device caused by non-Motorola batteries and/or chargers. To help you identify authentic Motorola batteries from non-original or counterfeit batteries (that may not have adequate safety protection), Motorola provides holograms on its batteries. You should confirm that any battery you purchase has a “Motorola Original”

hologram.

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 has a “Motorola Original” hologram;

• If there is no hologram, the battery is not a Motorola battery;

• If there is a hologram, replace the battery and try charging it again;

•If the message remains, contact a Motorola authorized service center.

Warning: Use of a non-Motorola battery or charger may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard.

Proper and safe battery disposal and recycling: Proper battery disposal is not only

important for safety, it benefits the environment. You can recycle your used batteries in

many retail or service provider locations. Additional information on proper disposal and
recycling can be found at www.motorola.com/recycling
Disposal: Promptly dispose of used batteries in accordance with local
regulations. Contact your local recycling center or national recycling	032375o
organizations for more information on how to dispose of batteries.

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

Battery Charging

Notes for charging your product’s battery:

•During charging, keep your battery and charger near room temperature for efficient battery charging.

•New batteries are not fully charged.

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

•Motorola batteries and charging systems have circuitry that protects the battery from damage from overcharging.

Third Party Accessories

Use of third party accessories, including but not limited to batteries, chargers, headsets, covers, cases, screen protectors and memory cards, may impact your mobile device’s performance. In some circumstances, third party accessories can be dangerous and may void your mobile device’s warranty. For a list of Motorola accessories, visit
