Follow these additional guidelines to ensure the safe use of your Accompli 009 and
accessories.

Battery Safety

Do not dispose of the rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery in fire. Batteries can explode
when exposed to fire.

To prevent injury or burns, do not allow metal objects to contact or short circuit the
battery terminals.

Recharge the battery only with the recommended Motorola battery charger. Charging
this battery by any other method or with a product not approved by Motorola may
cause damage to the battery.

Do not charge other batteries in the Motorola battery charger. Charging other batteries
can cause those batteries to burst or explode, resulting in personal injury or property
damage.

Battery Charger Safety

Do not expose the charger to rain or snow.

Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by Motorola may result in a risk of fire,
electric shock, or injury to persons.

Make sure the cord is located where it will not be stepped on, tripped over, pinched, or
subjected to damage or stress.

If you need to use an extension cord, make sure:

The pins on the plug of the extension cord are the same number, size, and shape
as those on the plug of the charger.

The extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition.

The cord size is 18AWG for lengths up to 100 feet and 16AWG for lengths up to
150 feet.

Do not operate the charger with a damaged cord, transformer block, or prongs; replace
them immediately.

Do not operate the charger if it has been damaged in any way; take it to a qualified
service technician.

Do not disassemble the charger; if service or repair is required, call Motorola at 1-
800-548-9954. Incorrect reassembly can result in a risk of electrical shock or fire.

Maximum ambient temperature around the power supply must not exceed 40 C (104 F).

Keep battery contacts clean. Do not allow dirt or sticky substances to accumulate on
the contacts. If you need to clean the contacts, unplug the charger to reduce the risk
