Charging Lithium Ion Batteries
The following table provides the approximate time to fully charge a battery
using a Motorola iDEN Approved Lithium Ion battery charger. Check the item
number on your battery and charger to determine the appropriate charging time.
Battery Charging Times
NOTE: Charging times are based on a fully discharged battery.
Battery Operating Instructions
• Extreme temperatures will degrade battery performance. Do not store your
battery where temperatures exceed 60°C (140°F) or fall below -20°C (4°F).
• Lithium Ion batteries have a self discharge rate and without use, will lose
about 1% of its charge per day.
• The battery capacity will be degraded 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 lifetime charge cycles.
• When batteries are not in use, always store them in the plastic safety tray.
