Repetitive Motion
When you repetitively perform actions such as pressing keys or

Battery Use and Safety
DON’Ts
ⅷ Don’t disassemble, crush, puncture, shred, or otherwise
attempt to change the form of your battery.
ⅷ Don’t let the phone or battery come in contact with water.
Water can get into the phone’s circuits, leading to corrosion.
If the phone and/or battery get wet, have them checked by
your carrier or contact Motorola, even if they appear to be
working properly.
ⅷ 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.
ⅷ Don’t place your battery near a heat source. Excessive heat
can damage the phone or the battery. High temperatures
can cause the battery to swell, leak, or malfunction.
Therefore:
Ⅲ Do not dry a wet or damp battery with an appliance or
heat source, such as a hair dryer or microwave oven.
Ⅲ Avoid leaving your phone in your car in high
temperatures.
DOs
ⅷ Do avoid dropping the battery or phone. Dropping these
items, especially on a hard surface, can potentially cause
damage.
ⅷ Do contact your service provider or Motorola if your phone or
battery has been damaged from dropping or high
temperatures.
Important
HANDLE AND STORE BATTERIES PROPERLY TO
AVOID INJURY OR DAMAGE.
Most battery issues
arise from improper handling of batteries, and
particularly from the continued use of damaged
batteries.
