Specific Absorption Rate (IEEE)

SAR (IEEE)

Your model wireless phone meets the governmental
requirements for exposure to radio waves.

Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed
and manufactured to not 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

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) submitted to the FCC and available
for review by Industry Canada. The highest SAR value for this mobile
device when tested for use at the ear is 1.37 W/kg, and when worn on
the body, as described in this guide, is 0.72 W/kg. The SAR value for
this mobile device in its data transmission mode (body-worn use) is

0.72 W/kg. Body-worn measurements can differ, depending upon
available accessories and regulatory requirements. The SAR
information includes the Motorola testing protocol, assessment
procedure, and measurement uncertainty range for this product.

GPS & AGPS

GPS & AGPS

Your mobile device can use

Global Positioning System

(GPS) signals for
location-based applications. GPS uses satellites controlled by the U.S.
government that are subject to changes implemented in accordance
with the Department of Defense policy and the Federal Radio
Navigation Plan. These changes may affect the performance of
location technology on your mobile device.
Your mobile device can also use

Assisted Global Positioning System

(AGPS), which obtains information from the cellular network to improve
GPS performance. AGPS uses your wireless service provider's network
and therefore airtime, data charges, and/or additional charges may
apply in accordance with your service plan. Contact your wireless

• Remain on the phone for as long as the emergency

responder instructs you.

Performance Tips

• 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

mobile device, the system handling your call controls the power level
at which your mobile device transmits.
Your mobile device is designed to comply with local regulatory
requirements in your country concerning exposure of human beings to
RF energy.

Operational Precautions

For optimal mobile device performance, and to be sure that human
exposure to RF energy does not exceed the guidelines set forth in the
relevant standards, always follow these instructions and precautions.

Product Operation

When placing or receiving a phone call, hold your mobile device just

Implantable Medical Devices

If you have an implantable medical device, such as a pacemaker or
defibrillator, consult your physician before using this mobile device.

following precautions:

• ALWAYS keep the mobile device more than

20 centimeters (8 inches) from the implantable
medical device when the mobile device is turned ON.

• DO NOT carry the mobile device in the breast pocket.

• Use the ear opposite the implantable medical device

to minimize the potential for interference.

Potentially Explosive Atmospheres

Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often, but not always,
posted and can include fueling areas, such as below decks on boats,
fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, or areas where the air
contains chemicals or particles, such as grain dust, or metal powders.
When you are in such an area, turn off your mobile device, and do not
remove, install, or charge batteries. In such areas, sparks can occur and
cause an explosion or fire.

phone successfully. Trying out the phone with your hearing device is
the best way to evaluate it for your personal needs.

Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are
likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than phones that
are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.

T-Ratings:

Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are
likely to be more usable with a hearing device’s telecoil (“T Switch” or
“Telephone Switch”) than unrated phones. T4 is the better/higher of

Smart Practices While Driving

Driving Safety

Drive Safe, Call Smart
Check the laws and regulations on the use of mobile devices
and their accessories in the areas where you drive. Always obey

your eyes from the road. If you receive an incoming
call at an inconvenient time, if possible, let your
voicemail answer it for you.

• Let the person you are speaking with know you
are driving; if necessary, suspend the call in
heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions.

Rain, sleet, snow, ice, and even heavy traffic can be
hazardous.

• Do not take notes or look up phone numbers
while driving. Jotting down a “to do” list or going

progress, or other serious emergency where lives are
in danger, call 911 or other local emergency number
(wherever wireless phone service is available), as you
would want others to do for you.

• Call roadside assistance or a special
non-emergency wireless assistance number
when necessary. If you see a broken-down vehicle

posing no serious hazard, a broken traffic signal, a
minor traffic accident where no one appears injured,
or a vehicle you know to be stolen, call roadside
