battery use & safety
•
Motorola recommends you always use
Motorola-branded batteries and chargers.
The warranty does not cover damage caused by
non-Motorola batteries and/or chargers.
Caution: Use of an unqualified battery or
charger may present a risk of fire, explosion,
leakage or other hazard. Improper battery use or
use of a damaged battery, may result in a fire,
explosion or other hazard.
Always take your mobile device with you when
you leave your vehicle.
•
•
When storing your battery, keep it in a cool, dry
place.
It is normal over time for battery life to decrease
and for the battery to exhibit shorter runtime
between charges or require more frequent or
longer charging times.
•
•
Battery usage by children should be supervised.
•
Avoid damage to battery and mobile
device. Do not disassemble, open, crush, bend,
deform, puncture, shred or submerge the battery
or mobile device. Avoid dropping the battery or
mobile device, especially on a hard surface. If
your battery or mobile device has been
Important: Motorola mobile devices are
designed to work best with qualified batteries. If
you see a message on your display such as
Invalid Battery or Unable to Charge, take the
following steps:
subjected to such damage, take it to a Motorola
Authorised Service Centre before using. Do not
attempt to dry it with an appliance or heat
source, such as a hair dryer or microwave oven.
•
Remove the battery and inspect it to
confirm that it bears a Motorola “Original
Equipment” hologram;
•
•
•
If there is no hologram, the battery is not a
qualified battery;
If there is a hologram, replace the battery
and retry charging it;
If the message remains, contact a
Motorola Authorised Service Centre.
•
Use care when handling a charged
battery—particularly when placing it inside a
pocket, purse or other container with metal
objects. Contact with metal objects (such as
jewellery, keys, beaded chains) could complete
an electrical circuit (short circuit), causing the
battery to become very hot, which could cause
damage or injury.
•
•
New batteries or batteries stored for a long time
may take more time to charge.
Promptly dispose of used batteries in
accordance with local regulations. Contact your
local recycling centre for proper battery
disposal.
Warning: Never dispose of batteries in a fire because
they may explode.
Charging precautions: When charging your
battery, keep it near room temperature. Never
expose batteries to temperatures below 0°C
(32°F) or above 45°C (113°F) when charging.

Specific Absorption Rate Data
SAR Data
This model meets international guidelines for
exposure to radio waves.
The World Health Organization has stated that present
scientific information does not indicate the need for any
special precautions for the use of mobile devices. They
note that if you want to reduce your exposure then you can
do so by limiting the length of calls or using a
“hands-free” device to keep the mobile phone away from
the head and body.
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is
designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio
waves recommended by international guidelines. These
guidelines were developed by the independent scientific
organization ICNIRP and include safety margins designed
to assure the protection of all persons, regardless of age
and health.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate or SAR. The ICNIRP SAR limit for
mobiles devices used by the general public is 2 W/kg and
the highest SAR value for this device when tested at the
ear was 0.89 W/kg.1 As mobile devices offer a range of
functions, they can be used in other positions, such as on
the body as described in this user guide.2 In this case, the
highest tested SAR value is 0.62 W/kg.1
Additional Information can be found on the websites of
the World Health Organization
(
http://www.who.int/emf) or or Motorola, Inc
(
1. The tests are carried out in accordance with international
guidelines for testing. The limit incorporates a substantial
margin for safety to give additional protection for the
public and to account for any variations in measurements.
Additional related information includes the Motorola
testing protocol, assessment procedure and measurement
uncertainty range for this product.
As SAR is measured utilising the device’s highest
transmitting power, the actual SAR of this device while
operating is typically below that indicated above. This is
due to automatic changes to the power level of the device
to ensure it only uses the minimum level required to reach
the network
2. Please see the Safety and General Information section
about body worn operation.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of
various phones and at various positions, they all meet the
governmental requirements for safe exposure. Please note
that improvements to this product model could cause
differences in the SAR value for later products; in all
cases, products are designed to be within the guidelines.
