Charging Lithium Ion Batteries
The following are approximate charge times to 90% capacity using
Motorola iDEN Approved Lithium Ion battery Chargers. For
optimal battery life, use a Motorola iDEN Approved Lithium Ion
charger with your Motorola iDEN Lithium Ion battery. Other
chargers may not fully charge your Lithium Ion battery or may yield
a reduced number of cycles.
Battery Operating Instructions
• Battery performance will degrade at extreme temperatures.
Do not store your battery where temperatures will exceed
60
°
C (140
°
F) or fall below -20
°
C (4
°
F).
• This Lithium Ion battery has a self discharge rate and
without use, will lose about 1% of its charge per day.
• The battery capacity will degrade if stored for long periods
while fully charged. If long term storage is required, store at
half capacity.
• The Motorola iDEN Approved Lithium Ion chargers will
provide optimum performance. Other chargers may not fully
charge your iDEN Lithium Ion battery or may yield reduced
number of charge cycles.
• Charger lights on Motorola iDEN chargers may flash or
extinguish during normal charger use.
• If the battery appears inoperative, the internal protection
circuitry may have been activated. Remove the battery from
the portable and put it into the charger for several minutes to
reset the circuitry.
