Motorola MC40 User Manual

Getting Started 1 - 3
1. Connect the charging accessory to the appropriate power source.
2. Insert the MC40 into a cradle or attach to a cable. The MC40 begins charging. The Right LED blinks amber
while charging, then turns solid green when fully charged. See Table 1-1 for charging indications.
The 2680 mAh battery charges in approximately four hours.
Charging Temperature
Charge batteries in temperatures from 0 °C to 40 °C (32 °F to 104 °F). Note that charging is intelligently
controlled by the MC40. To accomplish this, for small periods of time, the MC40 or accessory alternately
enables and disables battery charging to keep the battery at acceptable temperatures. The MC40 or accessory
indicates when charging is disabled due to abnormal temperatures via its LED. See Table 1-1.
Charging Spare Batteries
See Chapter 2, Accessories for information on using accessories to change spare batteries.
Powering On the MC40
If the MC40 did not turn on when the battery was installed, press the Power button until the Right and Left
LEDs flash once. The splash screen displays for about a minute as the MC40 initializes its flash file system.
Note that these windows also appear upon reset.
