battery

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.

12

10

essentials

• 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.

• Don’t place your battery near a heat

source.

Excessive heat can damage the

phone or the battery. High temperatures can

cause the battery to swell, leak, or

malfunction. Therefore:

•

Do

not

dry a wet or damp battery with an

appliance or heat source, such as a hair

dryer or microwave oven.

•

Avoid leaving your phone in your car in

high temperatures.

DOs

•Do avoid dropping the battery or phone.

Dropping these items, especially on a hard

surface, can potentially cause damage.

•

Do contact your service provider or Motorola if

your phone or battery has been damaged from

dropping or high temperatures.

IMPORTANT: USE MOTOROLA ORIGINAL

PRODUCTS FOR QUALITY ASSURANCE AND

SAFEGUARDS.

To aid consumers in identifying

authentic Motorola batteries from non-original or

counterfeit batteries (that may not have adequate

safety protection), Motorola provides holograms on its

batteries. Consumers should confirm that any battery

they purchase has a “Motorola Original” hologram.

Motorola recommends you always use

Motorola-branded batteries and chargers.

Motorola

mobile devices are designed to work with Motorola

batteries. If you see a message on your display such

as

Invalid Battery

or

UnabletoCharge

, take the following steps:

•

Remove the battery and inspect it to confirm

that it has a “Motorola Original” hologram;

11

essentials

•

If there is no hologram, the battery is not a

Motorola battery;

•

If there is a hologram, replace the battery and

retry charging it;

•

If the message remains, contact a Motorola

Authorized Service Center.

Important:

Motorola’s warranty does not cover

damage to the phone caused by non-Motorola

batteries and/or chargers.

Warning:

Use of a non-Motorola battery or charger

may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other

hazard.

PROPER AND SAFE BATTERY DISPOSAL AND

RECYCLING

Proper battery disposal is not only important for

safety, it benefits the environment. Consumers may

recycle their used batteries in many retail or service

provider locations. Additional information on proper

disposal and recycling may be found on the Web:

• www.motorola.com/recycling

•

www.rbrc.org/call2recycle/

(in English only)

Disposal:

Promptly dispose of used batteries

in accordance with local regulations. Contact

your local recycling center or national

recycling organizations for more information on how to

dispose of batteries.

Warning:

Never dispose of batteries in a fire because

they may explode.
