Install the Battery
Battery Tips
Battery life depends on the network, signal
strength, temperature, features, and
accessories you use.
1.
Always use Motorola Original
batteries and chargers. The
warranty does not cover damage
caused by non-Motorola batteries
and/or chargers.
2.
New batteries or batteries stored for a long
time may take more time to charge.
3.
4.
When charging your battery, keep it near
room temperature.
When storing your battery, keep it uncharged
in a cool, dark, dry place.
Never expose batteries to temperatures
below -10°C (14°F) or above 45°C (113°F).
Always take your phone with you when you
leave your vehicle.
Getting Started

It is normal for batteries to gradually wear
down and require longer charging times. If
you notice a change in your battery life, it is
probably time to purchase a new battery.
Using the Charger
1
Insert the
charger into the
USB connector
on your phone
as shown.
Contact your local recycling center for
proper battery disposal.
Warning: Never dispose of batteries in a fire
because they may explode.
2
3
Plug the other
end of the
charger into the
appropriate electrical outlet.
Before using your phone, read the battery
safety information in the “Safety and General
Information” section included in this guide.
When your phone indicates Charge Complete
,
remove the charger.
Charge the Battery
Tip: You can safely leave the charger
connected to the phone after charging is
complete. This will not damage the battery.
New batteries are shipped partially charged.
Before you can use your phone, you need to
install and charge the battery as described
below. Some batteries perform best after
several full charge/discharge cycles.
Note: When you charge the battery, the
battery level indicator in the upper right corner
of the display shows how much of the
charging process is complete. At least 1

AGPS Limitations and
Tips
•
Move away from radios, entertainment
equipment, and other electronic
devices that might interfere with or
block AGPS satellite signals.
Your phone uses assisted-Global Positioning
System (AGPS) satellite signals to estimate
your location. If your phone cannot find strong
satellite signals, your AGPS might be slower,
less accurate, or it might not work at all.
AGPS provides only an approximate location,
often within 150 feet (45 meters) but
sometimes much farther from your actual
location.

•

with your fingers
AGPS uses satellites controlled by the U.S.
government and subject to changes
implemented in accordance with the
Department of Defense AGPS user policy and
the Federal Radio Navigation Plan. These
changes might affect AGPS performance.
To improve AGPS accuracy:

Use AGPS During an
Emergency Call
When you make an emergency call, your
phone can use assisted-Global Positioning
System (AGPS) satellite signals to tell the
emergency response center your approximate
location.
Call an Emergency
Number
Your service provider programs 1 or more
emergency phone numbers, such as 911, that
you can call under any circumstances, even
when your phone is locked.
The AGPS feature has limitations, so always
tell the emergency response center your best
knowledge of your location. Remain on the
phone for as long as the emergency response
center instructs you.
Note: Emergency numbers vary by country.
Your phone’s preprogrammed emergency
number(s) may not work in all locations, and
sometimes an emergency call cannot be
placed due to network, environmental, or
interference issues.
AGPS might not work for emergency calls:

Specific Absorption Rate Data
The model wireless phone meets the
government’s requirements for exposure to
radio waves.
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set
by the FCC and by the Canadian regulatory
authorities is 1.6 W/kg.1 Tests for SAR are conducted
using standard operating positions accepted by the
FCC and by Industry Canada with the phone
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and
receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to
exceed limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF)
energy set by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government and by the
Canadian regulatory authorities. These limits are part
of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted
levels of RF energy for the general population. The
guidelines are based on standards that were
developed by independent scientific organizations
through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific
studies. The standards include a substantial safety
margin designed to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age or health.
transmitting at its highest certified power level in all
tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is
determined at the highest certified power level, the
actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be
well below the maximum value. This is because the
phone is designed to operate at multiple power
levels so as to use only the power required to reach
the network. In general, the closer you are to a
wireless base station, the lower the power output.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the
public in the U.S. and Canada, it must be tested and
certified to the FCC and Industry Canada that it does
not exceed the limit established by each government
for safe exposure. The tests are performed in
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones
employs a unit of measurement known as the
77
positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on
the body) reported to the FCC and available for
review by Industry Canada. The highest SAR value for
this model phone when tested for use at the ear is
1.14 W/kg, and when worn on the body, as described
in this user guide, is 1.56 W/kg. (Body-worn
measurements differ among phone models,
depending upon available accessories and regulatory
requirements).2
or the Canadian Wireless Telecommunications
Association (CWTA) Web site:
1. In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit
for mobile phones used by the public is
1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of
tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial
margin of safety to give additional protection for
the public and to account for any variations in
measurements.
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.
2. The SAR information includes the Motorola
testing protocol, assessment procedure, and
measurement uncertainty range for this product.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates
