Batte ry 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 mobile device or battery come in
contact with water.* Water can get into the
mobile device’s circuits, leading to corrosion. If the
mobile device and/or battery get wet, have them
checked by your service provider or contact
Motorola, even if they appear to be working
properly.*
• 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 mobile device or battery
near a heat source.* High temperatures can
cause the battery to swell, leak, or malfunction.
• Don’t dry a wet or damp battery with an
appliance or heat source, such as a hair dryer or
microwave oven.
DOs
• Do avoid leaving your mobile device in your
car in high temperatures.*
• Do avoid dropping the battery or mobile
device.* Dropping these items, especially on a
hard surface, can potentially cause damage.*
• Do contact your service provider or Motorola
if your mobile device or battery has been
damaged from dropping or high temperatures.
*Note: Always make sure that the battery
compartment is closed and secure to avoid direct
exposure of the battery to any of these conditions.
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
Unable to Charge, take the following steps:
