Battery Use and Maintenance
• The Motorola iDEN Approved Lithium Ion
chargers provide optimum performance. Other
chargers may not fully charge the iDEN Lithium
Ion battery or may yield a reduced number of
lifetime charge cycles.
• Extreme temperatures degrade battery
performance. Do not store the battery where
temperatures exceed 140°F (60°C) or fall below
4°F (-20°C).
• Lithium Ion batteries have a self discharge rate
and without use, lose about 1% of their charge
per day.
• The battery capacity is degraded if the battery is
stored for long periods while fully charged. If
long term storage is required, store at half
capacity.

Antenna
The retractable antenna on your i265 phone is
designed to be extended during calls.
To extend the antenna, pull gently on the rounded
tip until the antenna is fully extended and clicks into
position.
When finished with a call, retract the antenna by
pushing gently on the rounded tip until the antenna
clicks into place.
To optimize your phone’s performance, extend the
antenna when you make or receive a call, and
avoid touching the antenna with any body part.
Important: Failure to fully ex tend or retract the
antenna until the antenna clicks into
place causes severely degraded
performance, which may result in
missed calls, dropped calls, or garbled
audio.
Accessories

Battery and a standard travel charger.
Various accessories are available for use with your
i

Portability: Bringing Your
Phone Number From Another
Carrier
If you are bringing your phone number from
another carrier, your new phone will be active as
soon as you receive it. Nextel will provide you with
a temporary phone number so that you can begin
using your phone immediately. Once the number
you have brought to Nextel is activated, your
temporary phone number will be deactivated and
service with your previous carrier will be cancelled
automatically. You will receive a text message on
your Nextel phone letting you know that activation
is complete. Simply turn your phone off and back
on again to complete activation.
Here is additional information you need to be
aware of until the number you have brought to
Nextel is active on the Nextel network:
Page 27
Nextel® Customer Care
Nextel® Voice Mail
We suggest you set up your voice mail box after
the number you brought to Nextel is active on your
Nextel phone and your temporary phone number is
deactivated. If you set up your voice mail 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.
Text Messaging
During the activation process, it is possible that text
messages may not be properly routed to your
Nextel phone.
911 Calls
Nextel continues to make efforts to ensure that all
911 calls are minimally impacted by this process. If
you make a call to 911 from your temporary phone
number and the call fails, the 911 emergency
response center will not be able to call you back on
your Nextel phone if in the meantime your Nextel
phone has been programmed with your permanent
phone number. As with any wireless 911 call, if
your call is disconnected before location and
details have been provided, be sure to call 911
again and advise that you were disconnected.
