Understanding this Manual

Many of your phone options are accessed by a simple menu system. A full description of the menus and how to move around them is covered in the next section Menu Navigation. When the manual describes the use of each menu item, it will be assumed that you are familiar with the menu system.

Key Presses

Key presses are represented in this manual using symbols so that you may locate and use the required sequence quickly. A sequence of key presses may be shown as follows:

$OC This means that you should press the $ key followed by the

O key and then the C key, in sequence, not simultaneously.

Entering Information

When you are requested to enter information, such as the number of the phone you wish to call, this is represented in type. For example:

C - enter the required telephone number. A - enter your Personal Identification Number. B - enter your unlock code. G - enter the Phone Book location number.

Menu Navigation

A large number of your phone's options are accessed by using menus which use a common approach for selection, change and cancellation.

Please read this section carefully before attempting to access a menu option. When you understand the common approach to menu navigation and how the menus are shown on the page, you will be able to access and change options with ease.

Entering the Menus

Two different keys are used to access the menus: $ enters the Options menu whilst in standby mode;

enters the In-call menu during a call.

E enters the Quick Access menu. Once entered, the menus use the ª, <, >, O and

C keys in a common manner to access, select and change individual options.

AYou can use the ª or <, > keys to scroll round the

menus in either direction.

Leaving the Menus

To leave any of the menus, you can either press and hold the C key or repeatedly press the C key. Both of these actions will return your phone to the standby mode.

i Alternatively, a quicker way to leave the menus is to press

EC.

Menus and Sub-menus

A menu is a simple list of options. Some of these options provide access to a further list of options called a sub-menu. When navigating through the menus you may find it is helpful to think in terms of menu levels - the ‘parent’ menu being on one level and its sub-menus being on a lower level.

Moving To and Selecting a Menu Option

To move from one option to another on the same level, use the scroll key (ª). Pull ª down to move forwards and push ª up to move backwards. When you find the option you want, press the O key to select it.

Depending on the option you select, one of three things will happen:

• either a brief message will be displayed confirming an action,

for example Completed.

• or a prompt will be displayed requesting you to enter

information, for example Enter PIN or Enter Name.

• or the first option of a sub-menu will be displayed. You can

select this option using the O key or browse through the other options using the scroll key.

To leave an option or sub-menu, press the C key. This will take you back to the parent menu item.

Menu Options with Security Codes

Some options are protected from misuse by requiring you to enter one of the security codes. To use these options, you must enter the requested code before proceeding.

Menu Navigation - A Working Example

The following steps will take you through how to switch the Extended Menus option on:

When the phone is in the standby mode, press the $ key.

This will access the Options menu and Access Internet will be displayed.

Press the ª« key repeatedly until the Phone Setup sub-menu

item is shown in the display. Press the O key to select the sub-menu.

Press the ª« key repeatedly until the Extended Menus sub-

menu item is shown in the display. Press the O key to select this item. You can now select

between On or Off, the current setting will be shown with a z character. If the z character is next to Off, press ª© and then O to switch on the Extended Menus. If the z character is next to On, press C to leave the setting as it is.

# If your service provider has added their own menu, Access

j Short, Extended and Personalised Menus

With Personality™ you can personalise the menus by choosing which features you want readily available. The features that are less frequently used can be stored out of sight.

The menu diagrams in this manual show the condition of the menu settings when you first receive your phone. Some features are in the Short Menu and are shown in features are in the Extended Menu and appear in italics.

You can change which features appear in the Short and Extended Menus, and therefore personalise the menus, to suit your requirements.

If you want to move a feature from the Short Menu to the Extended Menu (or from the Extended Menu to the Short Menu), go to the feature and then hold down the O key until a prompt appears offering the following choices:

• Add the current feature to the Short Menu/Extended Menu.

• Leave the current feature in the Short/Extended Menu.

your wireless handheld phone.

Exposure to Radio Frequency Signals

Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.

International agencies have set standards and recommendations for the protection of public exposure to RF electromagnetic energy.

International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation

•

example, over 120 scientists, engineers, and physicians from universities, government health agencies, and industry reviewed the available body of research to develop the updated ANSI standard.

The design of your phone complies with these standards when used normally.

Antenna Care

Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorised antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the phone and may violate local agency regulations.

Phone Operation

Normal Operation

Hold the phone as you would any other telephone, with the antenna pointed up and over your shoulder.

Tips on Efficient Operation

Observe the following guidelines to operate your phone most efficiently.

Extend your antenna fully, if applicable.

•

Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when the phone is in

•

use. Contact with the antenna affects call quality and may cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than otherwise needed.

Safety Information

Batteries

CAUTION:

burns if a conductive material, such as jewellery, keys or beaded chains, touches exposed terminals. The material may complete an electrical circuit and become quite hot. To protect against such unwanted current drain, exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when placing it inside your pocket, purse, or other container with metal objects. When the battery is detached from the phone, your batteries are packed with a protective battery cover; please use this cover for storing your batteries when not in use.

All batteries can cause property damage, injury, or

Driving

Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless telephones in the areas where you drive. Always obey them. Observe the following guidelines when using your phone while driving.

Give full attention to driving - driving safely is your first

•

responsibility.

Use hands-free phone operation, if available.

•

Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if

•

driving conditions so require.

Electronic Devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. However, certain equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your wireless phone.

Pacemakers

The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of six inches (6") be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.

Persons with pacemakers:

should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from

•

their pacemaker when the phone is turned ON

should not carry the phone in a breast pocket

•

should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimise the

•

potential for interference

should turn the phone OFF immediately if you have any reason

•

to suspect that interference is taking place

Hearing Aids

Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.

Other Medical Devices

If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.

Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.

English

Safety Information

jade_en.bk : safety.fm5 Page 15 Wednesday, October 11, 2000 9:58 PM

Vehicles

RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.

Posted Facilities

Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted notices so require.

Aircraft

Switch OFF your phone before boarding an aircraft.

Airline regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Check and comply with the policy of your airline regarding the use of your phone while the aircraft is on the ground.

Blasting Areas

To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone OFF when in a “blasting area” or in areas posted: “Turn off twoway radio.” Obey all signs and instructions.

Potentially Explosive Atmospheres

Turn your phone OFF, do not remove your battery when you are in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks from your battery in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always clearly marked. They include fuelling areas such as gasoline stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; areas where fuel odours are present (for example, if a gas/propane leak occurs in a car or home); areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders; and any other area where you normally would be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.

For Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag

An air bag inflates with great force. Do NOT place objects, including both installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If invehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.

Your Battery

Charging a New Battery

New batteries are supplied in a totally uncharged state.

To ensure maximum battery performance, a new battery (or battery that has not been used for several months) should be charged for at least 14 hours before use.

AA new battery will require several full charge/discharge

cycles in order to achieve its optimum performance.

AA new battery, or a battery that has not been used for

several months, may cause a premature fully charged indication. Ignore this indication and let the battery charge for several more hours, remove and re-insert the battery into the charger, and charge for an additional 14 hours.

Important Battery Information

! Always treat your batteries with care. See ‘Batteries’, at

the beginning of this manual.

! Never leave your battery in extremely high

temperatures (over 60°C), for example behind glass in very hot, direct sunlight.

! Only Motorola Original Accessory batteries should be

charged in the phone or the optional desktop charger. This is to protect you and your phone from the risks of incorrect charging.

ADo not use lithium ion batteries at extremely low

temperatures as the maximum standby/talk time will not be available when cold.

To ensure that you enjoy maximum battery life and use your battery to its fullest capacity:

The battery should be at or near room temperature when

•

charging.

Battery Performance and Maintenance

Best battery performance will be achieved when you regularly

•

charge and discharge batteries as instructed in this manual.

Battery performance is greatly affected by network coverage.

•

Set Battery Saving Mode to On (see Phone Setup Menu) and/or

•

Frequency Of Search to Slow or Medium (see Network Selection Menu.)

If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself in

•

approximately one month.

When not in use, store your battery uncharged in a cool, dark

•

and dry place.

Low Battery Warning

When the battery level is low and only a few minutes of talk time remain, a warning signal (two double beeps) will sound, the border of the battery symbol will begin to flash, and Low Battery will be displayed.

When the battery is completely discharged, your phone will turn off.

Connecting Data Cable

Please refer to the desktop charger instruction literature.

Battery Indicators on the Phone Display

Your Motorola cellular phone includes the Motorola Expert Performance (¢) charging system. This enables the charging circuits in both the phone and the optional (¢) desktop charger to communicate directly with the battery. Based on this communication, the charger can implement the optimum charging cycle for best performance and determine the level of charge.

Your phone monitors and displays information about your battery. The following message will appear on the phone display, as the condition occurs:

Low Battery

Insert Battery

Invalid Battery

The battery charge is low. The battery should be recharged.

No battery fitted; external power connected

This message is accompanied by a single beep. Your phone is alerting you that you do not have charging capabilities with this battery even though the battery may be able to power the phone.

The most likely reason why your charging system does not recognise the battery is that the battery you have purchased is not a Motorola original battery and therefore does not have the communications technology built into it. All Motorola original batteries include this communications technology.

It is recommended that you use only Motorola original batteries, chargers and other accessories.

Battery Indicators on the Desktop Charger

The following LED indicators flash/light on the desktop charger base, as the condition occurs:

µ´

Front pocket phone indicator

Lights up yellow only when the phone is properly seated in the charger. Check the charging status on the phone display. If there is a battery in the back pocket and the phone display is off, the phone battery is fully charged.

Back pocket battery indicator

Left side solid red indicates that the battery is charging; right side flashing yellow indicates that the battery is waiting to be charged; both sides solid green indicates that the charging is complete (battery > 90% charged); both sides flashing red indicates an invalid or faulty battery has been detected or that there are two batteries in the back pocket and the batteries will not be charged.

Data indicator

Flashes green only when data is transferring to an attached PC with the appropriate optional data cable. Data transfer must be initiated through the PC.

Your SIM Card

Your SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card was supplied by your Cellular Service Provider when you bought your phone. You will not be able to make or receive calls if you do not have a SIM card inserted in your phone.

ASome networks allow you to make emergency calls without

a SIM card inserted.

The SIM card is a ‘Smart Card’ that contains your phone number, service details and memory for storing Phone Book numbers and messages. You can therefore use your SIM card in someone else’s GSM phone and you will be charged for the call.

Like a bank or credit card, you should keep your SIM card secure. Do not bend or scratch your card and avoid exposure to static electricity or water.

! Switch off your phone before inserting or removing the

SIM card. Failure to do so may damage the memory on your SIM card.
