    							65 Troubleshooting
    Safety, Regulatory & LegalBattery Use & SafetyBattery Use & Safet yThe following battery use and safety information applies to all Motorola mobile devices. 
    If 
    your mobile device uses a non-removable main battery
     (as stated in your product 
    information), 
    details related to handling and replacing your battery should be 
    disregarded—the battery should only be replaced by a Motorola-approved service facility, 
    and 
    any attempt to remove or replace your battery, unless performed by a service 
    representative, may damage the product and void your warranty
    .
    Important: Handle and store batteries properly to avoid injury or damage.
     Most battery 
    safety 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 use tools, sharp objects, or excessive force to insert or remove the battery 
    as this can damage the battery.
     Don’t let the mobile device or battery come in contact with liquids.*
     Liquids can get 
    into the mobile device’s circuits, leading to corrosion.
     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 mobile device or battery.*
     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 in any of the ways listed here.
    * Note:
     Always make sure that any battery, connector and compartment covers are closed and 
    secure to avoid direct exposure of the battery to any of these conditions, even if your product 
    information states that your 
    mobile device
     can resist damage from these conditions.
    Important: Motorola recommends you always use Motorola-branded batteries and 
    chargers for quality assurance and safeguards.
     Motorola’s warranty does not cover 
    damage to the mobile device caused by non-Motorola batteries and/or chargers. To help you 
    identify authentic Motorola batteries from non-original or counterfeit batteries (that may not 
    have adequate safety protection), Motorola provides holograms on its batteries. You should 
    confirm that any battery you purchase has a “Motorola Original” hologram.
    If you see a message on your display such as 
    Invalid Battery
     or Unable to Charge
    , take 
    the following steps:
    Remove the battery and inspect it to confirm that it has a “Motorola Original” hologram;If there is no hologram, the battery is not a Motorola battery;If there is a hologram, replace the battery and try charging it again;If the message remains, contact a Motorola authorized service center.Wa rni ng : 
    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. You can recycle your used batteries in many 
    retail or service provider locations. Additional information on proper disposal and recycling can 
    be found at 
    www.motorola.com/recycling
    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.
    Wa rni ng : 
    Never dispose of batteries in a fire because they may explode.
    Battery ChargingBa tter y Ch argin gNotes for charging your product’s battery:
    During charging, keep your battery and charger near room temperature for efficient battery 
    charging.New batteries are not fully charged.New batteries or batteries stored for a long time may take more time to charge.Motorola batteries and charging systems have circuitry that protects the battery from 
    damage from overcharging.

    Radio Frequency (RF) EnergyRF Ene rgyExposure to RF EnergyYour mobile device contains a transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and 
    transmits RF energy. When you communicate with your mobile device, the system handling 
    your call controls the power level at which your mobile device transmits.
    Your mobile device is designed to comply with local regulatory requirements in your country 
    concerning exposure of human beings to RF energy.RF Energy Operational PrecautionsFor optimal mobile device performance, and to be sure that human exposure to RF energy does 
    not exceed the guidelines set forth in the relevant standards, always follow these instructions 
    and precautions:When placing or receiving a phone call, hold your mobile device just like you would a 
    landline phone.If you wear the mobile device on your body, ensure that the device is positioned at least 
    2.5 cm (1 inch) away from the body, and if you use an accessory case or holder, ensure it is 
    free of any metal.RF Energy Interference/CompatibilityNearly every electronic device is subject to RF energy interference from external sources if 
    inadequately shielded, designed, or otherwise configured for RF energy compatibility. In some 
    circumstances, your mobile device may cause interference with other devices.Do not use tools.
    For indoor use only.
    Listening at full volume to music or voice through a headset 
    may damage your hearing.Symbol Definition 
    						
    							68Safety, Regulatory & LegalFollow Instructions to Avoid Interference ProblemsTurn off your mobile device in any location where posted notices instruct you to do so, such as 
    hospitals or health care facilities.
    In an aircraft, turn off your mobile device whenever instructed to do so by airline staff. If your 
    mobile device offers an airplane mode or similar feature, consult airline staff about using it 
    in flight.Medical DevicesIf you have a medical device, including an implantable medical device such as a pacemaker or 
    defibrillator, consult your healthcare provider and the device manufacturer’s directions before 
    using this mobile device.
    Persons with implantable medical devices should observe the following precautions:ALWAYS keep the mobile device more than 20 centimeters (8 inches) from the implantable 
    medical device when the mobile device is turned ON.DO NOT carry the mobile device in the breast pocket.Use the ear opposite the implantable medical device to minimize the potential for 
    interference.Turn OFF the mobile device immediately if you have any reason to suspect that interference 
    is taking place.Specific Absorption Rate (FCC & IC)SAR (FCC & IC)YOUR MOBILE DEVICE MEETS FCC AND IC LIMITS 
    FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits 
    for exposure to radio waves (radio frequency electromagnetic fields) adopted by the Federal 
    Communications Commission (FCC) and Industry Canada (IC). These limits include a substantial 
    safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
    The radio wave exposure guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the Specific 
    Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile devices is 1.6 W/kg.
    Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with the device transmitting at 
    its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. The highest SAR values under 
    the FCC and IC guidelines for your device model are listed below:
    Head SAR CDMA 1900, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 1.45 W/kg
    Body-worn SAR CDMA 1900, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 0.71 W/kg
    During use, the actual SAR values for your device are usually well below the values stated. 
    This is because, for purposes of system efficiency and to minimize interference on the 
    network, the operating power of your mobile device is automatically decreased when full 
    power is not needed for the call. The lower the power output of the device, the lower its SAR 
    value.
    If you are interested in further reducing your RF exposure then you can easily do so by limiting 
    your usage or simply using a hands-free kit to keep the device away from the head and body.
