Routine Battery Charge
A battery is charged to 90% of its
full capacity after approximately
two and a half hours, and is fully
charged after three hours,
excluding out-of-range periods.
During the charge, the LED indi-
cator of the PowerPad shows
green and blinks quickly. Note
that the PowerPad can be in either On, Off or Suspend mode while
charging.
Important: The battery will not charge if the PowerPad or battery
is not properly locked inside the UOD slot.
Battery Maintenance
The performance of the rechargeable battery delivered with your
PowerPad depends on the way the battery is treated. Therefore, to
comply with the Motorola warranty for batteries and to assure high
performance and a long life for your Motorola rechargeable battery,
please read and follow the maintenance rules stated below.
Battery Storage
Do not store your battery where the temperatures exceed 140°F
(60
°C) or fall below 4°F (-20°C).
New Lithium-Ion batteries (i.e. batteries that have never been
charged before) may be stored for up to 3 months in well-venti-
lated, cool and dry areas without significant loss in lifespan.
