Battery Operating Instructions
•Extreme temperatures will degrade battery performance. Do not store your battery where temperatures exceed 60°C (140°F) or fall below
•The battery capacity will be degraded if stored for long periods while fully charged. If long term storage is required, store at half capacity.
•For optimal battery life, use a Motorola iDEN approved NiMH Charger with your Motorola iDEN NiMH battery. Other chargers may not fully charge your NiMH or may yield a reduced number of charge cycles.
