Battery Storage
The storage temperature range of the battery is from +20 °C to +30 °C.
New Lithium-Ion batteries can be stored in ventilated, cool, and dry areas with some capacity loss in the life cycle.
Charge the battery if the battery is to be stored for a long period of time. Do not store a fully discharged battery.
Remove the battery pack from your radio if your radio is not to be used for a long period of time (a few weeks).

To ensure maximum service life of your radio, always replace the battery with a genuine Motorola Solutions replacement.
