• Use the battery in accordance with its water and/or dust
Ingress Protection (IP) rating.
• DO NOT discard your battery into a fire.

Do Not Substitute Options or Accessories
The Motorola Solutions communications equipment
certified as intrinsically safe by the approving agency (FM,
UL, CSA, CENELEC) is tested as a complete system which
consists of the listed agency approved portable, approved
battery, and approved accessories or options, or both. This
approved portable and battery combination must be strictly
observed. There must be no substitution of items, even if
the substitute has been previously approved with a different
Warning:
• Use of a radio that is not intrinsically
safe in a potentially explosive
atmosphere could result in a serious
injury, or death. You should only use a
certified Intrinsically Safe radio in
potentially explosive atmospheres.
• Explosive atmospheres refer to hazard
classified locations that may contain
hazardous gas, vapors, dusts, such as
fueling areas below decks on boats,
fuel, or chemical transferor storage
facilities, and areas where the air
contains chemicals or particles such as
grain, dust, or metal powders. Areas
with potentially explosive atmospheres
are often, but not always, posted.
• Turn off your radio prior to entering any
area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere unless it is a radio type
specifically certified for use in
hazardous location areas.
• DO NOT remove, install, or charge
batteries in such areas, or remove or
install antennas. Sparks in a potentially
explosive atmosphere can cause an
explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury
or even death.
