Safety and General Information
Warranty Information
Getting Started
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
6 - Safety and General Information
•
Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE)
C95.1-1999 Edition
•
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 Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields in the
Frequency Range from 3 kHz to 300 GHz, 1999
•
Australian Communications Authority Radiocommunications
(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.
Unauthorized 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 "N USE".
Holding the antenna affects call quality and may cause the Personal
Communicator to operate at a higher power level than needed.
Safety and General Information - 7
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.
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.
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.
8 - Safety and General Information
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.
Medical Devices
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a
minimum separation of 6 inches (15 centimeters) 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 centimeters) 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 minimize 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.
Safety and General Information - 9
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.
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.
10 - Safety and General Information
The areas with potentially explosive atmospheres referred to above
include fueling 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.
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 jewelry, 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.
