AGPS limitations & tips

To improve AGPS accuracy:

•

Go outside and away from underground
locations, covered vehicles, structures with
metal or concrete roofs, tall buildings, and
foliage. Indoor performance might improve if
you move closer to windows, but some
window sun shielding films can block satellite
signals.

Your phone uses Assisted Global Positioning
System (AGPS) satellite signals to estimate
your location. If your phone cannot find strong satellite
signals, your AGPS might be slower, less accurate, or
it might not work at all. AGPS provides only an
approximate location, often within 150 feet
(45 meters) but sometimes much farther from your
actual location.

•

Move away from radios, entertainment
equipment, and other electronic devices that
might interfere with or block AGPS satellite
signals.

•

If your phone has a retractable antenna,
extend the antenna.

•

Hold your phone away from your body, and
point the phone antenna toward the sky. Do
not cover the antenna area with your fingers.

personalize

33

AGPS uses satellites controlled by the U.S.
government and subject to changes implemented in
accordance with the Department of Defense AGPS
user policy and the Federal Radio Navigation Plan.
These changes might affect AGPS performance.

adapt advanced speech
recognition to your voice

For most people, Advanced Speech Recognition
works well for voice dialing without any initial setup.
However, if the phone is frequently unable to
recognize numbers correctly when you use voice
dialing, you may be able to improve your results by
adapting it to your voice.

Note:

If the phone is used by several people, reset
voice dialing to the original setting before proceeding.
This ensures that you are not saving your settings over
someone else’s.

Specific Absorption Rate Data

SAR Data

This model wireless phone meets 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 limits for exposure to
radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government and by the Canadian
regulatory authorities. 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 or 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 and by the Canadian regulatory
authorities is 1.6 W/kg.
standard operating positions accepted by the FCC and by Industry
Canada 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

1

Tests for SAR are conducted using

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 to a wireless
base station, the lower the power output.

Before a phone model is available for sale to the public in the U.S.
and Canada, it must be tested and certified to the FCC and Industry
Canada that it does not exceed the limit established by each
government for safe exposure. The tests are performed in
positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body)
reported to the FCC and available for review by Industry Canada.
The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for use at
the ear is 1.4 W/kg, and when worn on the body, as described in
this user guide, is 0.77 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ
among phone models, depending upon available accessories and
regulatory requirements).

While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various
phones and at various positions, they all meet the governmental
requirements for safe exposure. Please note that improvements to
this product model could cause differences in the SAR value for
later products; in all cases, products are designed to be within the
guidelines.

the relevant standards, always follow these instructions and
precautions.

External Antenna Care

If your mobile device has an external antenna, use only a
Motorola-supplied or approved replacement antenna. Use of
unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could
damage the mobile device and/or may result in your device not
complying with local regulatory requirements in your country.

DO NOT hold the external antenna when the mobile device is IN
USE. Holding the external antenna affects call quality and may
cause the mobile device to operate at a higher power level than
needed.

Product Operation

When placing or receiving a phone call, hold your mobile device
just like you would a landline phone.

If you wear the mobile device on your body, always place the
mobile device in a Motorola-supplied or approved clip, holder,
holster, case, or body harness. If you do not use a body-worn
accessory supplied or approved by Motorola, keep the mobile
device and its antenna at least 2.5 centimeters (1 inch) from your
body when transmitting.

When using any data feature of the mobile device, with or without
an accessory cable, position the mobile device and its antenna at
least 2.5 centimeters (1 inch) from your body.

Using accessories not supplied or approved by Motorola may
cause your mobile device to exceed RF energy exposure
guidelines. For a list of Motorola-supplied or approved
accessories, visit our Web site at:

Hearing Aid Compatibility with Mobile Phones

Hearing Aids

Some Motorola phones are measured for compatibility with
hearing aids. If the box for your particular model has “Rated for
Hearing Aids” printed on it, the following explanation applies.

Hearing Aids

90

When some mobile phones are used near some hearing devices
(hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing,
humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices are more

immune than others to this interference noise, and phones also
vary in the amount of interference they generate.

The wireless telephone industry has developed ratings for some of
their mobile phones, to assist hearing device users in finding
phones that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all
phones have been rated. Phones that are rated have the rating on
their box or a label on the box.

The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the
user’s hearing device and hearing loss. If your hearing device
happens to be vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to
use a rated phone successfully. Trying out the phone with your
hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal
needs.

M-Ratings:

are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than
phones that are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two
ratings.

T-Ratings:

likely to be more usable with a hearing device’s telecoil (“T
Switch” or “Telephone Switch”) than unrated phones. T4 is the
better/higher of the two ratings. (Note that not all hearing devices
have telecoils in them.)

Hearing devices may also be measured for immunity to this type of
interference. Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing health
professional may help you find results for your hearing device. The
more immune your hearing aid is, the less likely you are to
experience interference noise from mobile phones.

Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and

Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are
