Battery Use & Battery Safety

• Motorola recommends you always use

Motorola-branded batteries and chargers. The

warranty does not cover damage caused by non-Motorola

batteries and/or chargers. Caution: Use of an unqualified

battery or charger may present a risk of fire, explosion,

leakage, or other hazard. Improper battery use, or use of a

damaged battery, may result in a fire, explosion, or other

hazard.

•Battery usage by children should be supervised.

• Important: Motorola mobile devices are designed to work

best with qualified batteries. 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 bears

a Motorola “Original Equipment” hologram;

•If there is no hologram, the battery is not a qualified

battery;

•If there is a hologram, replace the battery and retry

charging it;

•If the message remains, contact a Motorola Authorized

Service Center.

•New batteries or batteries stored for a long time may take

more time to charge.

• Charging precautions: When charging your battery, keep

it near room temperature. Never expose batteries to

temperatures below 0°C (32°F) or above 45°C (113°F) when

charging. Always take your mobile device with you when

you leave your vehicle

•When storing your battery, keep it in a cool, dry place.

•It is normal over time for battery life to decrease, and for the

battery to exhibit shorter runtime between charges or

require more frequent or longer charging times.
