Battery Use and Maintenance
• The Motorola iDEN Approved Lithium Ion
chargers provide optimum performance. Other
chargers may not fully charge the iDEN Lithium
Ion battery or may yield a reduced number of
lifetime charge cycles.
• Extreme temperatures degrade battery
performance. Do not store the battery where
temperatures exceed 140°F (60°C) or fall below
4°F (-20°C).
• Lithium Ion batteries have a self discharge rate
and without use, lose about 1% of their charge
per day.
• The battery capacity is degraded if the battery is
stored for long periods while fully charged. If long
term storage is required, store at half capacity.
