Safety and General Information
This section contains important information on the safe and efficient operation of your mobile device. Read this information before using your mobile device.*
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
Your mobile device contains a transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and transmits RF energy. When you communicate with your mobile device, the system handling your call controls the power level at which your mobile device transmits.
Your Motorola mobile device is designed to comply with local regulatory requirements in your country concerning exposure of human beings to RF energy.
Operational Precautions
For optimal mobile device performance and to be sure that human exposure to RF energy does not exceed the guidelines set forth in the relevant standards, always follow these instructions and precautions.
*The information provided in this document supersedes the general safety information in user’s guides published prior to May 1, 2007.
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—or if you hang your mobile device from a lanyard around your neck—keep the mobile device and its antenna at least 2.5 centimeters (1 inch) from your body when transmitting.
10 Safety Information
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: www.motorola.com.
RF Energy Interference/Compatibility
Nearly every electronic device is subject to RF energy interference from external sources if inadequately shielded, designed, or otherwise configured for RF energy compatibility. In some circumstances your mobile device may cause interference with other devices.
Follow Instructions to Avoid Interference
Problems
Turn off your mobile device in any location where posted notices instruct you to do so.
In an aircraft, turn off your mobile device whenever instructed to do so by airline staff. If your mobile device offers an airplane mode or similar feature, consult airline staff about using it in flight.
Implantable Medical Devices
If you have an implantable medical device, such as a pacemaker or defibrillator, consult your physician before using this mobile device.
Persons with implantable medical devices should observe the following precautions:
•ALWAYS keep the mobile device more than
20 centimeters (8 inches) from the implantable medical device when the mobile device is turned ON.
•DO NOT carry the mobile device in the breast pocket.
•Use the ear opposite the implantable medical device to minimize the potential for interference.
•Turn OFF the mobile device immediately if you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place.
Read and follow the directions from the manufacturer of your implantable medical device. If you have any questions about using your mobile device with your implantable medical device, consult your health care provider.
Driving Precautions
Check the laws and regulations on the use of mobile devices in the area where you drive. Always obey them.
11
When using your mobile device while driving, please:
•Give full attention to driving and to the road. Using a mobile device may be distracting. Discontinue use if you can’t concentrate on driving.
•Use handsfree operation, if available.
•Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require.
•Do not place a mobile device in the airbag deployment area.
Responsible driving practices can be found in the “Smart Practices While Driving” section in this user’s guide and/or at the Motorola Web site: www.motorola.com/callsmart.
Note: The use of wireless phones while driving may cause distraction. Discontinue a call if you can’t concentrate on driving. Additionally, the use of wireless devices and their accessories may be prohibited or restricted in certain areas. Always obey the laws and regulations on the use of these products.
Operational Warnings
Obey all posted signs when using mobile devices in public areas.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often but not always posted and can include fueling areas such as below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, or areas
where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain dust, or metal powders.
When you are in such an area, turn off your mobile device, and do not remove, install, or charge batteries. In such areas, sparks can occur and cause an explosion or fire.

Batteries and Chargers
Caution: Improper treatment or use of batteries may present a danger of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard. For more information, see the “Battery Use & Battery Safety” section in this user’s guide.
Choking Hazards
Your mobile device or its accessories may include detachable parts, which may present a choking hazard to small children. Keep your mobile device and its accessories away from small children.
Glass Parts
Some parts of your mobile device may be made of glass. This glass could break if the product is dropped on a hard surface or receives a substantial impact. If glass breaks, do not touch or attempt to remove. Stop using your mobile device until the glass is replaced by a qualified service centre.
Seizures/Blackouts
Some people may be susceptible to epileptic seizures or blackouts when exposed to flashing lights, such as when playing video
games. These may occur even if a person has never had a previous seizure or blackout.
If you have experienced seizures or blackouts, or if you have a family history of such occurrences, please consult with your physician before playing video games or enabling a flashing-lights feature (if available) on your mobile device.
Discontinue use and consult a physician if any of the following symptoms occur: convulsion, eye or muscle twitching, loss of awareness, involuntary movements, or disorientation. It is always a good idea to hold the screen away from your eyes, leave the lights on in the room, take a 15-minute break every hour, and stop use if you are very tired.
Caution About High Volume Usage
Listening at full volume to music or voice through a headset may damage your hearing.
Repetitive Motion
When you repetitively perform actions such as pressing keys or entering finger-written characters, you may experience occasional discomfort in your hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of your body. If you continue to have discomfort during or after such use, stop use and see a physician.

battery tips
Battery life depends on the network, signal strength, temperature, features, and accessories you use.
• Always use Motorola Original batteries and chargers. The warranty does not cover damage caused by non-Motorola batteries and/or chargers.
•New batteries or batteries stored for a long time may take more time to charge.
•When charging your battery, keep it near room temperature.
When storing your battery, keep it uncharged in a cool, dark, dry place.
•Never expose batteries to temperatures below 0°C (32°F) or above 45°C (113°F). Always take your phone with you when you leave
your vehicle.
•It is normal for batteries to gradually wear down and require longer charging times. If you notice a change in your battery life, it is probably time to purchase a new battery.
Contact your local recycling centre for proper
032375o
battery disposal.
Warning: Never dispose of batteries in a fire because they may explode.
