Powering On and Off  
As your phone connects to the network, you will see  
a connecting message. When the idle screen  
appears, the phone is ready to use.  
Battery Use and Maintenance  
The Motorola iDEN Approved Lithium Ion  
chargers provide optimum performance. Other  
chargers may not fully charge the iDEN Lithium  
Ion battery or may yield a reduced number of  
lifetime charge cycles.  
BOOST  
Extreme temperatures degrade battery  
performance. Do not store the battery where  
temperatures exceed 140°F (60°C) or fall below  
4°F (-20°C).  
Lithium Ion batteries have a self discharge rate  
and without use, lose about 1% of their charge  
per day.  
The battery capacity is degraded if the battery is  
stored for long periods while fully charged. If long  
term storage is required, store at half capacity.
