Thank you for choosing your
Motorola phone from a global
leader in communications
technology. All Motorola digital
cellular phones are designed
and manufactured to meet
Motorola’s rigorous
specifications and world-class
quality standards. During
development, our laboratory
testing team took your cellular
phone through rigorous
durability tests including
temperature, humidity, shock,
dust, vibration, and drop tests—
and the phone still worked!
We are confident that the phone you purchased will
meet your own exacting standards. Enjoy your
Motorola phone.
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.
In August 1996, The Federal Communications
Commissions (FCC) adopted RF exposure
guidelines with safety levels for handheld wireless
phones. Those guidelines are consistent with safety
standards previously set by both U.S. and
international standards bodies:
•
American National Standards Institute (ANSI)
IEEE. C95. 1-1992
•
National Council on Radiation Protection and
Measurement (NCRP) Report 86
•
International Commission on Non-Ionizing
Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996
Those standards were based on comprehensive
and periodic evaluations of the relevant scientific
literature. For example, over 120 scientists,
engineers, and physicians from universities,
government health agencies, and industry
reviewed the available body of research to develop
the ANSI Standard (C95.1).
The design of your phone complies with the FCC
guidelines (and those standards).
Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement
antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or
attachments could damage the phone and may
violate FCC regulations.
v
Phone Operation
Normal Operation
Hold the phone as you would any other telephone,
with the antenna pointed up and over your
shoulder.
Tip on Efficient Operation
T o operate your phone most ef ficiently, 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.
Batteries
Caution:
injury, or burns if a conductive material, such as
jewelry, 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,
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.
vi
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 minimize 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.
vii
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.
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
FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while in
the air. Switch OFF your phone before boarding an
aircraft.
Blasting Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn
your phone OFF when in a “blasting area” or in
areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio.” Obey all
signs and instructions.
viii
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn your phone OFF and do not remove your
battery when you are in any area with a potentially
explosive atmosphere. 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,
but are not limited to: fueling areas such as
gasoline stations; below deck on boats; fuel or
chemical transfer or storage facilities; areas where
fuel odors 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 in-vehicle
wireless equipment is improperly installed and the
air bag inflates, serious injury could result.

Battery Charging Tips
To ensure maximum battery life:
• Always use Motorola approved battery
chargers.
• When charging, keep the battery at or near
room temperature.
• When you don’t intend to use a battery for a
while, store it uncharged in a cool, dark, dry
place, such as a refrigerator.
• Do not leave a NiMH battery connected to
any charger for longer than 24 hours.
A new NiMH battery can require several full charge/
discharge cycles to reach its optimum performance
level. After this initial series of charge/discharge
cycles, recharge the battery at your convenience.
Quick Change Power Source
The quick change feature enables you to switch
power sources during an active call without losing
the connection. If you hear a low-battery warning
during a call, plug in the Vehicle Power Adapter or
the AC adapter.

Reference Information
Accessory Options
An exciting line of Motorola accessories, now
smaller and lighter than ever, can enhance and
personalize your cellular experience.
Batteries
Your phone uses Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH)
batteries in either AAAL or AA sizes.
Vehicle Power Adapter
With the vehicle power adapter,
you can power your phone and
charge its battery directly from
your vehicle’s cigarette lighter.
In some vehicles, the engine
must be running in order for the
cigarette lighter to operate.
Belt Clip and Optional
Battery Cover
Your digital cellular phone is positively
wearable.
78
Just attach the optional battery
cover, slip the phone into the belt
clip, and attach the clip to your belt.
Notes:
• The belt clip is designed for
your convenience and is not
meant to secure your phone
under all circumstances.
• For body-worn use, keep the antenna at least
one inch from your body when transmitting.
Headset
The convenient headset provides an
earphone and microphone in one
small piece for simple hands-free,
private telephone conversations. The
headset plugs into the jack on the
side of your phone, so you can wear
your phone and move freely.
Easy-Install Hands-Free Vehicle Kit
The optional Hands-Free Kit gives you the
convenience of hands-free, speakerphone
operation while in your vehicle. Full duplex
operation lets you simultaneously talk and listen, so
both parties can interrupt each other for a normal
sounding conversation.
The Hands-Free Kit automatically powers your
phone and charges its battery. In some vehicles,
the engine must be running in order for the
cigarette lighter to operate.
Note: The use of wireless telephones and their
accessories (devices) may be prohibited or
restricted in certain areas. Always obey the laws
and regulations on the use of these devices.

Troubleshooting
QuestionAnswer
I pressed the
power button, but
nothing happened.
What’s wr ong with
my phone?
My battery didn’t
last as long as I
expected. What
can I do to extend
battery life?
Be sure to press and hold the power button until the
display appears and you hear an audible alert. If nothing
happens, check that you have installed a battery and
that the battery is charged. For more information about
batteries and charging, see “Installing and Removing a
Battery” on page 13.
Your battery’s “talk-time” and “standby-time” are
relative measurements of battery capacity. The more
you talk on the phone, the less standby-time you have,
and vice versa.
To get the most from your battery, allow it to charge
fully. To charge the battery to 100% of its capacity,
leave it in the charger for an extra hour after the
charger’s light turns green.
You can also turn on the Power Save Mode feature to
extend battery life. However, the LED Power/Status
Indicator does not light when this feature is activated.
Certain features require more pow er and reduce bat tery
life. If you have selected the Automatic Display of
Individual Call Timer feature, the display uses power to
remain active during each call. Turn this feature off to
conserve battery energy. (See “Displa ying the Individual
Call Timer Automatically” on page 46 for more
information.)
Use only batteries that are compatible with your phone.
Exposing your battery to extreme temperatures—belo w
-10°C (14°F) or above 45°C (113°F)—can shorten
battery life. Batteries are especially sensitive to high
temperature extremes. A s a good r ule, always take your
phone with you when you leave your car.
The display shows
“Locked.” How do
I unlock my
phone?
I tried to place a
call and received a

Enter the last three digits of your cellular number . If that
doesn’t work, use the factory preset lock code: 123. If
nothing works, call your service provider (the company
that sends your monthly cellular bill). (See “Locking/
Unlocking Your Phone” on page 54.)
The cellular system did not process your call. For
example, the cellular system may be overloaded with
call attempts. To redial, press S before ending your
call attempt, or press e and try the call again later.
(See “Redialing a Number” on page 21.)
QuestionAnswer
Your call did not reach the cellular sy stem. Y ou ma y ha v e
dialed the number too soon after turning the phone on.
I tried to place a
call and received
an alternating
high/low tone.
Wait until the No Service message is no longer
displayed before placing a call.
An alternating tone may indicate that the phone’s signal
is blocked. Be sure the antenna is fully extended and
you’re clear of obstructions such as bridges or tall
buildings.
I am in my home
service area, but
the Roam indicator
is flashing.
I tried to listen to
my Voice Mail (or
use a paging
service, a calling
card, etc.) but
nothing happened.
My phone was
stolen. What
should I do?
I tried to place a
calling card call
using the internal
Phone Book, but it
didn’t work.
If your phone has more than one telephone number , you
may need to switch active numbers. Press r # s
to switch to the other number . See “S witc hing Between
Numbers” on page 63.
You may have turned off the scratchpad tones. Place
your call, enter the access numbers when prompted,
then press r S. To avoid this problem in the future,
follow the directions “Turning Scratchpad Tones On and
Off” on page 51 to turn the scratchpad tones on.
Report a stolen phone to the police and to your service
provider (the company that sends you your monthly
cellular service bills).
You may have turned off your scratchpad tones. Follow
the directions in “Turning Scratchpad Tones On and Off”
on page 51 to turn the scratchpad tones on.
Check that you stored your calling card information in
the correct order , and make sure the groups of numbers
are separated by pauses. The easiest wa y to cor rect the
sequence may be to start from scratch. Follow the
instructions on “Storing Calling Card Information” on
page 38, enter your calling card information again, and
store it in the same memory location as your previous
attempt.
Also keep in mind that when using your calling card, you
must enter the number you are calling with the area
code, but without the initial “1.” Check with your long
distance carrier for details on using your calling card.
