Battery

Battery Use & Battery Safety
• Motorola recommends you always use Motorola-branded batteries and chargers. The warranty does not cover damage caused by non­Motorola batteries and/or chargers. Caution: Use of an unqualified battery or charger may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard. Improper battery use, or use of a damaged battery, may result in a fire, explosion, or other hazard.
• Battery usage by children should be supervised.
• Important: Motorola mobile devices are designed to work best with qualified batteries. If you see a message on your display such as Invalid Battery
Essentials
15
or
Unable to Charge
, take the
following steps:
• Remove the battery and inspect it to confirm that it bears a Motorola “Original Equipment” hologram;
• If there is no hologram, the battery is not a qualified battery;
• If there is a hologram, replace the battery and retry charging it;
• If the message remains, contact a Motorola Authorized Service Center.
• New batteries or batteries stored for a long time may take more time to charge.
Charging precautions: When
charging your battery, keep it near room temperature. Never expose batteries to temperatures below 0°C (32°F) or above 45°C
(113°F) when charging. Always take your mobile device with you when you leave your vehicle
• When storing your battery, keep it in a cool, dry place.
• It is normal over time for battery life to decrease, and for the battery to exhibit shorter runtime between charges or require more frequent or longer charging times.
Avoid damage to battery and mobile device.
Do not disassemble, open, crush, bend, deform, puncture, shred, or submerge the battery or mobile device. Avoid dropping the battery or mobile device, especially on a hard surface. If your battery or mobile device has been subjected to such damage, take it to a Motorola Authorized Service Center before using.
Do
not attempt to dry it
16
Essentials
with an appliance or heat source, such as a hair dryer or microwave oven.
Use care when handling a charged battery
when placing it inside a pocket, purse, or other container with metal objects. Contact with metal objects (e.g., jewelry, keys, beaded chains) could complete an electrical circuit (short circuit), causing the battery to become very hot, which could cause damage or injury.
Promptly dispose of used batteries in accordance with local regulations. Contact your local recycling center for proper battery disposal.
Warning: Never dispose of batteries in a fire because they may explode.
particularly
Battery installation
1 Remove battery cover.
2 Insert battery as shown below.
Push the battery down until it snaps in place.
3 Replace the battery cover.

Battery charging
New batteries are not fully charged. Plug the battery charger into your phone and an electrical outlet. Your phone might take several seconds to start charging the battery.
To charge using the charger: 1 Insert the charger into the USB
connector on your phone as shown.
2
Plug the other end of the charger into the appropriate electrical outlet
.
3 When your phone displays
Complete
, remove the charger.
Charge
When you charge the battery, the battery level indicator at the upper right of the screen shows charging progress. At least one segment of the indicator must be visible to ensure full phone functionality while charging.
Tip: Motorola batteries have circuitry that protects the battery from damage from overcharging. Of course, unplugging the charger from the wall will avoid current drain.
To charge from your computer: You can charge your phone’s
battery by connecting a cable from your phone’s mini-USB port to a highpower USB connector on a computer (not a low-power one, such as the USB connector on your keyboard or bus­powered USB hub). Typically, USB high­power connectors are located directly on your computer.
Note: The phone will be charged at a slower rate than it is charged with the rapid charger.
18
Essentials
Your computer must be turned on, and you must have correct software drivers installed on your computer. If the phone is off when the USB cable is connected between the computer and the phoen, the phone will power up in charging mode. This mode allows the phone to charge fastest and quickest.
Note: If the battery is very low, the phone will not turn On, but it will continue to charge at a low rate.
If the phone is turned on while charging from a computer, it will not fully charge the battery. In this case, the battery charge will be maintained approximately between 80% and 95% of the battery’s capacity. Cables and software drivers are available in Motorola Original separately.
Tip: Motorola batteris have circuitry that protects the battery from damage from overcharging.

Use GPS with map software

Your phone is enabled with a highly­capable GPS receiver that sends location information to a USB port on a PC, laptop, or PDA.
Note: No serial port connectivity is provided by your phone. Applications on the host device which are expecting to receive the GPS location information via a serial port must instead use a Virtual Serial Comm Port.
The data sent to the host device is formatted as prescribed in the National Marine Electronics Association 0183 V3.0 (NMEA-0183) standard. As such it supports the following sentences: GGA, GLL, GSA, GSV, RMC, and VTG.
Note: This handset is not a full NMEA­0183 compliant device supporting electrical RS-422/RS-232 connectivity as dictated by the NMEA-0183 standard. Consequently it's unsuitable for
48
Basics
conventional marine NMEA-0183 equipment use. Its intended use is for normal "terrestrial" mobile users who want to enable their USB hosting computing devices such as a PC, laptop or PDA with the phone's highly-capable GPS functionality.
Get Connected
1 Slide open the phone's
bottom connector and insert a mini­USB cable into the phone's bottom connector.
2 Insert the other end of the mini-
USB cable into a vacant USB receptacle of your host device. A virtual USB Comm Port will be created on your host device upon successful enumeration of the phone as a USB Communications Device Class device.

the created virtual COMM port settings are set as follows:
• Bits per second: 4800
• Data bits: 8
• Parity: None
• Stop bits: 1
• Flow control: None.

Safety and General Information
Safety Information
This section contains important information on the safe and efficient operation of your mobile device. Read this information before using your integrated multi-service portable radio.*
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
Your phone contains a transmiter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and transmits RF energy. When you communicate with your phone, the system handling your call controls the power level at which your phone transmits.
Your Motorola phone is designed to comply with local regulatory requirements in your country concerning exposure of human beings to RF energy.
Portable Radio Product Operation and EME Exposure
Your Motorola radio product is designed to comply with the following national and international standards and guidelines regarding exposure of human beings to radio frequency electromagnetic energy (EME):
• United States Federal Communications
• American National Standards Institute
• Institute of Electrical and Electronics
• International Commission on Non-Ionizing
• Ministry of Health (Canada). Safety Code 6.
• Australian Communications Authority
• ANATEL, Brasil Regulatory Authority,

radio frequency range between 9 kHz and 300 GHz." "Attachment to Resolution 303 from July 2, 2002."
Operational Precautions
To assure optimal radio product performance and to be sure that human exposure to RF does not exceed the guidelines set forth in the relevant standards, always follow these instructions and precautions :
Two-way radio operation
Your radio product has been designed and tested to comply with national and international standards and guidelines regarding human exposure to RF electromagnetic energy, when operated in the two-way mode (at the face, or at the abdomen when using an audio accessory) at usage factors of up to 50% talk/50% listen.
Transmit no more than the rated duty factor of 50% of the time. To transmit (talk), push the Walkie-Talkie (WT) button. To receive calls, release the WT button. Transmitting 50% of the time or less, is important because this radio generates measurable RF energy only when transmitting (in terms of measuring for standards compliance).
When using your radio product as a traditional two-way radio,
hold the radio product in a vertical position with the microphone one to two inches (2.5 to 5 cm) away from the lip
s.
Product Operation
When placing or receiving a phone call, hold your radio product as you would a wireline telephone.
Speak directly into the microphone
If you wear a radio product on your body when transmitting, always place the radio product in a Motorola approved clip, holder, holster, case or body harness. If you do not use a body-worn accessory supplied or approved by Motorola and are not using the radio product in the intended use positions along side the head in the phone mode or in front of the face in the two-way radio mode—or if you hang your device from a lanyard around your neck—keep the device at least 2.5 centimeters (1 inch) from your body when transmitting.

ALL MODELS WITH FCC ID IHDT56HG1 MEET THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg. conducted using standard operating positions reviewed by the FCC with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are
1
Tests for SAR are
to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that is does not exceed the limit established by the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model. The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for use at the ear is 1.54 W/kg and when tested on the body, as described in this user guide, is 1.48 W/kg during packet data transmission. (Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available accessories and FCC requirements.)
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement for safe exposure.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid FCC ID IHDT56HG1.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) web-site at http://www.wow-com.com

Hearing Aid Compatibility
A number of Motorola phones have been tested for hearing aid compatibility. When some wireless phones are used with certain hearing aids, users may detect a noise which can interfere with the effectiveness of the hearing aid.
Some hearing aids are more “immune” than others to this interference noise, and phones can also vary in the amount of interference noise they may generate. ANSI standard C63.19 was developed to provide a standardized means of measuring both mobile phone and hearing aids to determine usability rating categories for both.
Ratings have been developed for mobile phones to assist hearing aid users find phones that may be compatible with their hearing aid. Not all phones have been rated for compatibility with hearing aids. Phones that have been rated have a label with the rating(s) located on the box, and at www.motorola.com/accessibility
These ratings are not guarantees of compatibility. Results will vary depending on the user's hearing aid and individual type and degree of hearing loss. If a hearing aid is particularly vulnerable to interference, even a phone with a higher rating may still cause unacceptable noise levels in the hearing aid Trying out the phone with your hearing aid is the best way to evaluate it for your personal needs.

.
“M” Rating
requirements for hearing aid compatibility and are likely to generate less interference to hearing aids than unrated phones. (M4 is the “better” or higher of the two ratings.) On those models with an extendable antenna, this rating is determined only with the antenna extended.
“T” Rating: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC
requirements and are likely to be more usable with a hearing aid's telecoil (“T Switch” or “Telephone Switch”) than unrated phones. (T4 is the “better” or higher of the two ratings.) On those models with a telecoil mode setting, this rating is determined only with the phone so set. For setting instructions, see “Features for the Hearing Impaired” in the section entitled “Advanced Calling Features”. Note that not all hearing aids have telecoils in them.
Hearing aids may also be measured for immunity to interference from wireless phones and may have ratings similar to wireless phones. Ask your hearing healthcare professional for the rating of your hearing aid. Add the rating of your hearing aid and your phone to determine the estimated usability:
: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC
• Any combined rating equal to or greater than six offers excellent use.
• Any combined rating equal to five is considered normal use.
• Any combined rating equal to four is considered usable.
Thus, if you use an M3 phone with a M3 hearing aid you will have a combined rating of six for “excellent use.” This methodology applies equally for T ratings.
