Driving Safety Tips
NOTE: For safety and legal reasons (in many countries), do not use
your phone while driving.
Check and follow the local laws regarding the use of mobile
phones while driving.
Safety — Your most important call . T he Wireless Industry reminds you to use
your phone safely when driving.
1. Get to know your wireless phone and its features such as speed dial and redial. Carefully read your instruction manual and learn to take
advantage of valuable features most phones offer, including automatic
redial and memory. Also, work to memorize the phone keypad so you can
use the speed dial function without taking your attention off the road.
2. When available, use a hands free device. A number of hands free
wireless phone accessories are readily available today. Whether you
choose an installed mounted device for your wireless phone or a speaker
phone accessory, take advantage of these devices if available to you.
3. Posit ion your wireless phone within easy reach. Make sure you place
your wireless phone within easy reach and where you can grab it without
removing your eyes from th e road. If you get an incoming call at an
inconvenient time, if possible, let your voice mail answer it for you.
4. Suspend conver sat io ns duri ng haza rdou s driv ing co ndit io ns or situations. Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving; if
necessary, suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather
conditions. Rain, sleet, snow and ice can be hazardous, but so is heavy
traffic. As a driver, your first responsibility is to pay attention to the road.
5. Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. If you are
reading an address book or busi ness card or writing a “to do” list while
driving a car, then you are not watching where you are going. It's common
7
Page 10
sense. Don’t get caught in a dangerous situation because you are reading
or writing and not paying attention to the road or nearby vehicles.
6. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic. If possible, place calls when you are not moving or before pulling into traffic. Try to plan your calls
before you begin your trip or attempt to coi ncide your calls with times
you may be stopped at a stop sign, red light or otherwise stationary. But if
you need to dial while driving, follow this simpl e tip — dial only a few
numbers, check the road and your mirrors, then continue.
7. Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may be distracting. Stressful or emotional conversations and driving do not mix
— they are distracting and even d angerous when you are behind the
wheel of a car. Make people you are talking wi th aware you are driving
and if necessary, suspend conversations which have the potential to divert
your attention from the road.
8. Use your wireless phone to call for help. Your wireless phone is one of
the greatest tools you can own to protect yourself and your family in
dangerous situations — with your phone at your side, help is onl y three
numbers away. Dial 9-1-1 or other local emergency number in the case of
fire, traffic accident, road hazard or medical emergencies. Remember, it is
a free call on your wireless phone!
9. Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. Your wireless
phone provides you a perf ect opportunity to be a “Good Samaritan” in
your community. If you see an auto accident, crime in progress or other
serious emergency where lives are in danger, call 9-1-1 or other local
emergency number, as you would want others to do for you.
10.Call roadside assistance or a special wireless non-emergency assistance number when necessary.
Certain situations you encounter while driving may
require attention but are not urgent enough to merit a
call for emergency services. But you still can use your
wireless phone to lend a hand. If you see a brokendown vehicle posing no serious hazard, a broken
traffic signal, a minor traffic accident where no one
appears to be injured or a vehicle you know to be
stolen, call roadside assistance or other special nonemergency wireless numbers.

Security Features of the i55sr Phone
The i55sr phone comes with two levels of security protection:
•SIM Card
•Keypad Lock
Your phone comes with a built-in level of securi ty pro te ct ion th rou gh th e u se of
the SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card. The SIM card stores all your
Phonebook information and your Nextel account identification information.
Since this information is stored on the SIM card, not in your phone itself, you
can remove the information by removing the SIM card.
The SIM card is located in the SIM Card Holder on the back of the phone,
underneath the battery. You can verify that the SIM card is in place by removing
the battery and viewing the SIM card through the SIM card cover.
See “Removing/Inserting the SIM Card ” on page 15 for informa tion o n locatin g
the SIM card. If there is no SIM card in your phone, notify your Nextel
Authorized Representative.
NOTE:Except for making emergency calls, your phone will not
function without the SIM card.
SIM Card Personal Identification Number (PIN)
To prevent unauth orized use of your phone, your SIM card is protected by a
PIN. Each time the phone is powered on, you must enter your PIN. You can
change or disable your PIN if desired.
NOTE:Disabling your PIN enables anyone to use your phone. If you
disable your PIN, you must still keep the SIM card in the phone
to make calls.
Entering the PIN
By default, your phone is set to require you to
enter a PIN.
NOTE:Your default SIM card PIN is: 0000.
It is recommended that you
change your PIN to prevent
fraudulent use of the SIM card
(see “Changing the PIN” on page

Pause Digit Entry
When storing a number, you c an program you r phone so that it will not on ly dial
a number but also pause before ent eri ng another series of numbers such as a
personal identification number (PIN) or password. This feature is particularly
useful for accessing automated services such as voice mail and banking systems
from your i55sr phone.
Example: Let’s say you have a company voice mail account that you frequently
check while traveling. And, to access that account you must do the following:
•Dial your work number;
11
Page 56
•Press # while the voice mail greeting is being played; and
•Enter your PIN to access your messages.
You can program yo ur phone to enter all of the above information for you by
separating each entry with a pause. The stored data would look like this:
17035551234P#P1234. In this example, the first eleven digits represent the
number that must be dialed to access your voice mail. The P represents a 3
second pause. The # interrupts your greeting. The second P represents another 3
second pause. The las t f ou r digits represent your PIN.
To create a three-second pause follow the s te ps below:
Press and hold * for two seconds. The pause symbol (P) will appear
on the display screen.
NOTE:You can enter up to 20 characters in a single entry, stored or
dialed.
NOTE:You ca n pr ogram y our phone to p aus e for m ore tha n 3 seconds .
Performing the above step twice will program two pauses and
cause your phone to wait 6 seconds before entering the next set
of numbers.
Plus Dialing
This feature enables you to place an international call from most countries —
without entering the local internati onal access code. Use Plus Dialing for all
Phonebook entries if you pl an to travel outside the United St ates. Begin by
following the instructions for “Adding Phonebook Entries” on page 6. Before
you type the phon e number to be stored:
1
Press and hold 0 for two seconds. A “0” appears, then changes to a
“+”.
NOTE:The network translates the “+” into the approp riate
international access code needed to place the call.
2
Enter the country code, city cod e, or area code (as needed), and phone
number.
