Activating Your Service
Now that you have your phone, call
Unlimited by Boost
(1-877-855-6673) to get set up.
Once you've activated your service
you can begin your unlimited talk as
long as you continue to pay your
monthly balance. If your account is
interrupted or suspended, you have 30
days before your account is canceled.
If that happens, you'll need to open a
new account; you will be charged $15
to reactivate. We'll even send you
reminders via email or text message
to let you know your payment is due.

Your w385 comes with a Lithium Ion
battery and charger. Remove the
battery from the original packaging.

AGPS limitations & tips
Your phone uses Assisted
Global Positioning System
(AGPS) satellite signals to estimate
your location. If your phone cannot
find strong satellite signals, your
AGPS might be slower, less accurate,
or it might not work at all. AGPS
provides only an approximate
location, often within 150 feet
(45 meters) but sometimes much
farther from your actual location.
To improve AGPS accuracy:
•
Go outside and away from
underground locations,
covered vehicles, structures
with metal or concrete roofs,
tall buildings, and foliage.
Indoor performance might
improve if you move closer to
windows, but some window
sun shielding films can block
satellite signals.
•
Move away from radios,
entertainment equipment, and
other electronic devices that
Main Attractions
23
might interfere with or block
AGPS satellite signals.
•
If your phone has a retractable
antenna, extend the antenna.
•
Hold your phone away from
your body, and point the phone
antenna toward the sky. Do not
cover the antenna area with
your fingers.
AGPS uses satellites controlled by the
U.S. government and subject to
changes implemented in accordance
with the Department of Defense
AGPS user policy and the Federal
Radio Navigation Plan. These changes
might affect AGPS performance.

Using SMS text messaging
With SMS Text Messaging, you can
send instant text messages from your
phone to other messaging-ready phones
— and they can send messages to you.
In addition, SMS Text Messaging
includes a variety of preset messages,
such as “I’m running late, I’m on my
way,” that make composing messages
fast and easy. You can also customize
your own preset messages (up to 160
characters) from your phone.

For best results:
•
Go outside and away from
underground locations,
covered vehicles, structures
with metal or concrete roofs,
tall buildings, and foliage.
Indoor performance might
improve if you move closer to

Specific Absorption Rate Data
SAR Data
The model wireless phone meets the
government’s requirements for exposure
to radio waves.
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver.
It is designed and manufactured not to exceed limits for
exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S.
Government and by the Canadian regulatory authorities.
These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and
establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general
population. The guidelines are based on standards that
were developed by independent scientific organizations
through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific
studies. The standards include a substantial safety
margin designed to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age or health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones
employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC
and by the Canadian regulatory authorities is 1.6 W/
kg.1 Tests for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions accepted by the FCC and by Industry
Canada with the phone transmitting at its highest
certified power level in all tested frequency bands.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified
power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while
operating can be well below the maximum value. This is
because the phone is designed to operate at multiple
power levels so as to use only the power required to
reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a
wireless base station, the lower the power output.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public
in the U.S. and Canada, it must be tested and certified
to the FCC and Industry Canada that it does not exceed
the limit established by each government for safe
exposure. The tests are performed in positions and
locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body)
reported to the FCC and available for review by Industry
Canada. The highest SAR value for this model phone
when tested for use at the ear is 1.54 W/kg, and when
worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is
1.13 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among
phone models, depending upon available accessories
and regulatory requirements).
While there may be differences between the SAR levels
of various phones and at various positions, they all meet
the governmental requirements for safe exposure.
Please note that improvements to this product model
could cause differences in the SAR value for later
products; in all cases, products are designed to be
within the guidelines.
62
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates
(SAR) can be found on the Cellular
Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA)
Web site:
http://www.phonefacts.net
or the Canadian Wireless Telecommunications
Association (CWTA) Web site:
http://www.cwta.ca
1. In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile
phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg)
averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard
incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give
additional protec tion for the public and to account for any
variations in measurements.
2. The SAR information includes the Motorola testing
protocol, assessment procedure, and measurement
uncertainty range for this product.

Hearing Aid Compatibility
Hearing Aids
A number of Motorola phones have been tested for
hearing aid compatibility. When some wireless
phones are used with certain hearing aids, users
may detect a noise which can interfere with the
effectiveness of the hearing aid.
Some hearing aids are more “immune” than others
to this interference noise, and phones can also
vary in the amount of interference noise they may
generate. ANSI standard C63.19 was developed to
provide a standardized means of measuring both
mobile phone and hearing aids to determine
usability rating categories for both.
Ratings have been developed for mobile phones to
assist hearing aid users find phones that may be
compatible with their hearing aid. Not all phones
have been rated for compatibility with hearing
aids. Phones that have been rated have a label
with the rating(s) located on the box, and at
www.motorola.com/accessibility.
These ratings are not guarantees of compatibility.
Results will vary depending on the user's hearing
aid and individual type and degree of hearing loss.
If a hearing aid is particularly vulnerable to
interference, even a phone with a higher rating
may still cause unacceptable noise levels in the
hearing aid Trying out the phone with your hearing
aid is the best way to evaluate it for your personal
needs.
“M” Rating
requirements for hearing aid compatibility and are
likely to generate less interference to hearing aids
than unrated phones. (M4 is the “better” or higher
of the two ratings.) On those models with an
extendable antenna, this rating is determined only
with the antenna extended.
“T” Rating: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC
requirements and are likely to be more usable with
a hearing aid's telecoil (“T Switch” or “Telephone
Switch”) than unrated phones. (T4 is the “better”
or higher of the two ratings.) On those models with
a telecoil mode setting, this rating is determined
only with the phone so set. For setting instructions,
see “Features for the Hearing Impaired” in the
section entitled “Advanced Calling Features”.
Note that not all hearing aids have telecoils in
them.
Hearing aids may also be measured for immunity
to interference from wireless phones and may
have ratings similar to wireless phones. Ask your
hearing healthcare professional for the rating of
your hearing aid. Add the rating of your hearing
aid and your phone to determine the estimated
usability:
: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC
• Any combined rating equal to or greater
than six offers excellent use.
• Any combined rating equal to five is
considered normal use.
76
Hearing Aids
• Any combined rating equal to four is
considered usable.
Thus, if you use an M3 phone with a M3 hearing
aid you will have a combined rating of six for
“excellent use.” This methodology applies
equally for T ratings.

your mobile device reduces the amount of waste
disposed in landfills and allows recycled materials to
be incorporated into new products.
The Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association
(CTIA) and its members encourage consumers to
recycle their mobile devices and have taken steps to
promote the collection and environmentally sound
recycling of end-of-life devices.
As a mobile device user, you have an important role in
ensuring that this device is recycled properly. When it
comes time to give this mobile device up or trade it in
for a new one, please remember that the mobile
device, the charger, and many of its accessories can be
recycled. It's easy. To learn more about CTIA's

very small amounts of perchlorate. In such cases,
California law requires the following label:
“Perchlorate Material – special handling may apply. See

There is no special handling required by consumers.
