battery charging

Tip:
Motorola batteries have circuitry that
protects the battery from damage from
overcharging.
Note:
You can charge your battery
by connecting a cable from your
phone’s micro-USB port to a USB
port on a computer. Both your
phone and the computer must be turned on,
and your computer must have the correct
software drivers installed. A MotorolaOriginal
USB cable and supporting software may be
included with your phone. These tools are also
sold separately.
Caution:
If your computer has a USB hub with
multiple USB devices attached, connecting your
phone to the USB hub could potentially
overload the phone’s battery. To avoid any
possibility of overcharging, you should connect
your phone to a dedicated USB port on the
computer.
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 phone or battery come
in contact with water.
Water can get
into the phone’s circuits, leading to
corrosion. If the phone and/or battery
get wet, have them checked by your
carrier 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 jewelry, stay in prolonged contact
with the battery contact points, the
battery could become very hot.
