Introduction 1
2 Introduction
Safety and General
Information
Important Information on Safe and
Efficient Operation
Read this Information before using your
Personal Communicator
The information provided in this document supersedes the general safety
information contained in user guides published prior to this date. For
information regarding radio use in a hazardous atmosphere please refer to
the Factory Mutual (FM) Approval Manual Supplement or Instruction Card,
which is included with radio models that offer this capability.
RF Operational Characteristics
Your Personal Communicator contains a transmitter and a receiver. When it
is ON, it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF) energy. The Personal
Communicator operates in the frequency range of 900 MHz to 1990 MHz
and employs digital modulation techniques.
When you communicate with your Personal Communicator, the system
handling your call controls the power level at which your personal
communicator transmits. The output power level typically may vary over a
range from 0.063 watts to 1.58 watts.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy
Your Motorola Personal Communicator is designed to comply with the
following national and international standards and guidelines regarding
exposure of human beings to radio frequency electromagnetic energy:
• United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of Federal
Regulations; 47 CFR part 2 sub-part J
• American National Standards Institute (ANSI) / Institute of Electrical and
Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95. 1-1992
• Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-1999 Edition
Safety and General Information 3
• National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) of
the United States, Report 86, 1986
• International Commission on Non-ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP)
1998
• National Radiological Protection Board of the United Kingdom 1995
• Ministry of Health (Canada) Safety Code 6. Limits of Human Exposure to
Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields in the Frequency Range from
3 kHz to 300 GHz, 1999
• Australian Communications Authority Radio Communications
(Electromagnetic Radiation - Human Exposure) Standard 1999
(applicable to wireless phones only)
To assure optimal performance and make sure human exposure to radio
frequency electromagnetic energy is within the guidelines set forth in the
above standards, always adhere to the following procedures:
Portable Personal Communicator Operation and
EME Exposure
Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorised
antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the Personal
Communicator and may violate FCC and/or other applicable regulations.
DO NOT hold the antenna when the Personal Communicator is “IN USE”.
Holding the antenna affects call quality and may cause the Personal
Communicator to operate at a higher power level than needed.
Phone Operation
The Personal Communicator is designed to be used with a headset for
talking and listening. The Personal Communicator can also be placed inside
the holster, then the holster can be clipped onto your belt, pocket, handbag,
or other apparel and used with the headset.
4 Safety and General Information
Body-Worn Operation
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if you wear the
Personal Communicator on your body when transmitting, always place the
Personal Communicator in a Motorola supplied or approved clip, holder,
holster, case, or body harness. Use of non-Motorola-approved accessories
may exceed FCC RF exposure guidelines. If you do not use a body-worn
accessory, ensure the antenna is at least one inch (2.5 cm) from your body
when transmitting.
Data Operation
When using any data feature of the phone, with or without an accessory
cable, position the phone and its antenna at least one inch (2.5 centimeters)
from your body.
Approved Accessories
For a list of approved Motorola accessories, look in the accessory section of
this manual.
Electromagnetic Interference /
Compatibility
Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic interference
(EMI) if inadequately shielded, designed or otherwise configured for
electromagnetic compatibility.
Facilities
To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility conflicts, turn off
your Personal Communicator in any facility where posted notices instruct
you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that
is sensitive to external RF energy.
Aircraft
When instructed to do so, turn off your Personal Communicator when on
board an aircraft. Any use of a Personal Communicator must be in
accordance with applicable regulations per airline crew instructions.
Safety and General Information 5
Medical Devices
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a
minimum separation of 6 inches (15 centimetres) be maintained between a
handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker.
These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by,
and recommendations of, Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers should:
• ALWAYS keep the Personal Communicator more than six inches
(15 centimetres) from their pacemaker when the Personal
Communicator is turned ON.
• Not carry the Personal Communicator in the breast pocket.
• Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimise the potential for
interference.
• Turn the Personal Communicator 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 RF energy. Your
physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
6 Safety and General Information
Safety and General
Use in Vehicles
Check the laws and regulations on the use of phones in your vehicle. You
are advised to always obey them.
When using your Personal Communicator in a vehicle, please:
• Use hands-free operation, if available.
• Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call.
Operational Warnings
For Vehicles with an Air Bag
Do not place the Personal Communicator in the area over an air bag or in
the air bag deployment area. Air bags inflate with great force. If the
Personal Communicator is placed in the air bag deployment area and the air
bag inflates, the Personal Communicator may be propelled with great force
and cause serious injury to occupants of the vehicle.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn off your Personal Communicator prior to entering any area with a
potentially explosive atmosphere, unless it is especially qualified for use in
such areas as “Intrinsically Safe” (for example, Factory Mutual, CSA, or UL
Approved). Do not remove, install, or charge batteries in such areas. Sparks
in a potentially explosive atmosphere can cause an explosion or fire resulting
in bodily injury or even death.
The areas with potentially explosive atmospheres referred to above include
fuelling areas such as below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or
storage facilities, areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as
grain, dust or metal powders, and any other area where you would normally
be advised to turn off your vehicle engine. Areas with potentially explosive
atmospheres are often but not always posted.
Blasting Caps and Areas
To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn off your
Personal Communicator when you are near electrical blasting caps, in a
blasting area, or in areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio”. Obey all signs
and instructions.
Safety and General Information 7
Operational Cautions
Antennas
Do not use the Personal Communicator if it has a damaged antenna. If a
damaged antenna comes into contact with your skin, a minor burn can
result.
Batteries
All batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily injury such as burns if
a conductive material such as jewellery, keys, or beaded chains touch
exposed terminals. The conductive material may complete an electrical
circuit (short circuit) and become quite hot. Exercise care in handling any
charged battery, particularly when placing it inside a pocket, purse, or other
container with metal objects.

Inserting Your SIM Card
Your SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card was supplied by your Cellular
Service Provider when you bought your phone. Your phone is connected to
the network via the SIM card. You will not be able to make or receive calls if
you do not have a SIM card inserted in your phone.
! Some 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 use your SIM card in any GSM handset and you will be charged for the
call.

Charging the Battery
Before you can use your device, you need to install and charge the battery.
A Travel Charger will be able to charge a battery fitted in a phone (as well as
providing power to the phone directly).
To ensure maximum battery performance, a new battery (or a battery that
has not been used for several months) should be charged for at least
14 hours before use (but NOT more than 24 hours).
A
A new battery will require several full charge / discharge cycles in order
to achieve its optimum performance.
A
A new battery, or a battery that has not been used for several months,
may cause a prematurely fully charged indication. Ignore this indication
and let the battery charge for several more hours.
A
Do not use lithium ion batteries at extremely low temperatures as the
maximum standby / talk time will not be available when cold.
1 Make sure that the phone is fitted with a battery. Plug the travel charger
into your phone with the release tab facing up.
2 Plug the other end of the travel charger into a suitable mains power
socket.
! Please make sure that the local mains supply voltage at your location
matches that of your charger.
3 When charging starts, you will hear an alert beep and the screen will
show (Battery Charging). Charging can take place when the device is on
or off. When the device is on, charging does not affect the normal
operation of the device.
4 When your device indicates that the battery is fully charged (Charging
Complete), press the release tab and remove the travel charger.
When your device is turned on, the battery level indicator in the top right
hand corner of the screen shows the amount of charge left in your battery.
