About Your Phone
To maximize your battery’s performance:
• Always use Motorola Original™ batteries and battery
chargers. The phone warranty does not cover damage
caused from using non-Motorola batteries and/or battery
chargers.
• New batteries or batteries that have been stored for long
periods of time may require a longer charge time.
• Maintain the battery at or near room temperature when
charging.
• Do not expose batteries to temperatures below -10°C
(14°F) or above 45°C (113°F). Always take your phone with
you when you leave your vehicle.
• When you do not intend to use a battery for a while, store it
uncharged in a cool, dark, dry place, such as a refrigerator.
• Over extended periods of time, batteries gradually wear
down and require longer charging times. This is normal. If
you charge your battery regularly and notice a decrease in
talk time or an increase in charging time, then it is probably
time to purchase a new battery.
• The more you talk on the phone or use phone features (like
sending text messages), the less standby time your battery
has. You can also extend battery life by turning off the
status light. (See the “Status Light” option on page 65.)
The rechargeable batteries that power this product
must be disposed of properly and may need to be
recycled. Refer to your battery’s label for battery type.
Contact your local recycling center for proper disposal methods.
Never dispose of batteries in a fire because they may explode.
