Battery Tips

Your phone is like a small computer, giving you access
to a lot of information and apps, with a touch display.
Depending on what you use, that can take a lot of
power.

To conserve battery life between charges:

䢇 Reduce recording or watching videos, listening to

music, or taking pictures.

䢇 Disable or remove widgets that stream information to

your home screen, such as news or weather. (See
“Home Screen” on page 14.)

䢇 Reduce email updates: touch > Email >

Menu / > More > Account settings > Email check
frequency > Every hour or Never to check for email

manually.

䢇 Decrease display timeout delay: touch >

(shorter setting).

Rugged Features

Your phone is designed to resist damage from
exposure to certain rugged conditions. To help protect
your phone, always make sure that the battery
compartment and connector covers are closed and
secure. You should also avoid prolonged or extreme
exposure to those conditions.

Battery Cool Down

In very limited circumstances, such as where your
phone has been exposed to extreme heat, “Cool
Down” message screens will appear. To avoid possible
damage to your battery and phone, you should follow
these instructions until the phone is within its
recommended temperature range. When your phone is

in “Cool Down” mode, only emergency calls can be
made.

Your MOTOROLA i1 comes with the following
accessories:

䢇 A Li-Ion battery and charger.
䢇 A128K SIM card.

Various accessories are available for use with your
MOTOROLA i1, including cases, vehicle power
chargers, data cables, hands-free accessories, and
more.

Every Direct Connect number has three parts:

An asterisk separates each part (for example:
999*999*9999). When you enter a number containing
all three parts, you must separate them with asterisks.

Note: The number of digits in each part of a Direct Connect

number may vary. For example, your Direct Connect
number may be formatted as 999*999*9999, while
another valid number may appear as 555*555555*55.

If you are calling or saving a Direct Connect number for
a Sprint phone with Direct Connect capabilities, the
Direct Connect number may be the same as the
wireless phone number. When dialing or saving the
Direct Connect number, insert asterisks in place of
hyphens (913*555*1234).

If you set up your voicemail box prior to this, all messages
and all settings (including your greeting and password)
will be lost when the number you have brought to Nextel
becomes active.

Setting Up Your Voicemail Box

Using your MOTOROLA i1, dial your ten-digit Nextel
Personal Telephone Number (PTN). For example:

7035557777. Follow the system instructions to create a
new four- to seven-digit password, record your name,
and record a greeting. When the system says, “Thank
you for using Nextel Voicemail,” your mailbox is set up.

If you are setting up your voicemail from a phone other
than your MOTOROLA i1, dial your ten-digit Nextel PTN.
When you hear the greeting, press * to access your
voicemail box. The system will prompt you to enter

your password. Enter the last seven digits of your
Nextel PTN. For example: 5557777. This is your
temporary password. Follow the system instructions to
complete your mailbox setup.

You are in the main voicemail menu when you hear the
voicemail system options.

For details on using your voicemail, follow the audio
prompts provided by the voicemail system.

Creating Contacts Entries

Tip: ICE – In Case of Emergency

To make it easier for emergency personnel to identify
important contacts, you can list your local emergency
contacts under “ICE” in your phone’s Contacts list. For
example, if your mother is your primary emergency
contact, list her as “ICE–Mom” in your Contacts list. To list
more than one emergency contact, use “ICE1–___,”
“ICE2–___,” etc.

A number or address and a Contacts type, or a name
are required for all Contacts entries. Other information
is optional. You may enter the information in any order.

After you have entered the number or address,
Contacts type, and any other optional information,
scroll to the bottom of the entry and touch
the entry to Contacts.

Import and Export Contacts

Your phone stores its contact entries in its internal
memory and not within your SIM card. The first time
you use your phone, you will need to import the
contacts from your SIM card to your phone for you to
be able to use the contacts stored on the SIM card.

The contacts stored on your phone will not be saved
on your SIM card unless you export your contacts. It is
recommended that you export your contacts to your
SIM card from time to time to keep your phone and
SIM card in sync.

Note: Your SIM card can store only basic information, such as

phone numbers, Direct Connect numbers, Group
Connect numbers, Talkgroup numbers, and email
addresses.
