Extending Battery Life
Battery performance depends on many factors, including the
temperature at which you operate your handheld computer;
the features and/or settings you select and use; peripherals
attached to the computer and other application usage pat-
terns.
Batteries are expendable parts and gradually wear down and
require longer charging times. This is normal. If you charge
your battery regularly and notice a decrease in usage time or
an increase in charging time, then it is probably time to
switch to a new battery.
To ensure maximum service life of the HC700-i, always
replace the battery with a genuine Motorola replacement.
Battery Disposal
Batteries must be recycled or disposed of properly in accor-
dance with local requirements. Recycling facilities may not
exist in all areas. Please contact your local environmental
agency for more information regarding proper disposal.
To prevent injuries or burns, do not allow metal
objects to come in contact with or short-circuit the
battery contacts.
