14 Section 1B. Phone Basics
ⅷ It is normal for battery life to decrease over time, and
for the battery to exhibit shorter runtime between
charges or require more frequent or longer charging
times.
ⅷ Avoid damage to battery and mobile device. Do not
disassemble, open, crush, bend, deform, puncture,
shred, or submerge the battery or mobile device.
Avoid dropping the battery or mobile device,
especially on a hard surface. If your battery or mobile
device has been subjected to such damage, take
it to a Motorola Authorized Service Center before
using.
Do not attempt to dry it with an appliance or
heat source, such as a hair dryer or microwave oven.
ⅷ Use care when handling a charged battery — particularly
when placing it inside a pocket, purse, or other
container with metal objects. Contact with metal
objects (e.g., jewelry, keys, beaded chains) could
complete an electrical circuit (short circuit), causing
the battery to become very hot, which could cause
damage or injury.
Promptly dispose of used batteries in
accordance with local regulations. Contact your
local recycling center for proper battery
disposal.
