Understanding this Manual
Many of your phone options are accessed by a simple menu
system. A full description of the menus and how to move around
them is covered in the next section Menu Navigation. When
the manual describes the use of each menu item, it will be
assumed that you are familiar with the menu system.
Key Presses
Key presses are represented in this manual using symbols so that
you may locate and use the required sequence quickly. A
sequence of key presses may be shown as follows:
$OC
This means that you should press the $ key followed by the
O key and then the C key, in sequence, not
simultaneously.
Entering Information
When you are requested to enter information, such as the
number of the phone you wish to call, this is represented in
type. For example:
C - enter the required telephone number.
A - enter your Personal Identification Number.
B - enter your unlock code.
G - enter the Phone Book location number.

understand prompts that guide you to the next action, or simple
messages confirming that your action is complete. Prompts and
messages are represented in this manual in LCD style, for
example:
Enter PIN or Completed.
Other Symbols
You will find the following symbols used throughout this manual:

Menu Navigation
A large number of your phone's options are accessed by using
menus which use a common approach for selection, change and
cancellation.
Please read this section carefully before attempting to access a
menu option. When you understand the common approach to
menu navigation and how the menus are shown on the page,
you will be able to access and change options with ease.
Entering the Menus
Two different keys are used to access the menus:
$enters the Options menu whilst in standby mode;
Eenters the Quick Access menu.
Once entered, the menus use the ª , <, >, O and C
keys in a common manner to access, select and change individual
options.
enters the In-call menu during a call.
Leaving the Menus
To leave any of the menus, you can either press and hold the
C key or repeatedly press the C key. Both of these actions
will return your phone to the standby mode.
i Alternatively, a quicker way to leave the menus is to press
EC.
Menus and Sub-menus
A menu is a simple list of options. Some of these options provide
access to a further list of options called a sub-menu. When
navigating through the menus you may find it is helpful to think
in terms of menu levels - the ‘parent’ menu being on one level
and its sub-menus being on a lower level.
Moving To and Selecting a Menu Option
To move from one option to another on the same level, use the
scroll key ª; press the bottom half to scroll forwards and press
the top half to scroll backwards. When you find the option you
want, press the O key to select it.
Depending on the option you select, one of three things will
happen:
• either a brief message will be displayed confirming an action,
for example Completed.
• or a prompt will be displayed requesting you to enter
information, for example Enter PIN or Enter Name.
• or the first option of a sub-menu will be displayed. You can
select this option using the O key or browse through the
other options using the scroll keys.
To leave an option or sub-menu, press the C key. This will
take you back to the parent menu item.
Menu Options with Security Codes
Some options are protected from misuse by requiring you to
enter one of the security codes. To use these options, you must
enter the requested code before proceeding.

IMPORTANT
For the efficient and safe operation of
your wireless handheld portable
telephone, observe these guidelines.
Exposure To Radio Frequency Signals
Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low power radio
transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and also sends
out radio frequency (RF) signals.
European and International agencies have set standards and
recommendations for the protection of public exposure to RF
electromagnetic energy.
•
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection (ICNIRP) 1996
•
Verband Deutscher Elektringenieure (VDE) DIN-0848
•
Directives of the European Community, Directorate General V
in Matters of Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Energy
•
National Radiological Protection Board of the United
Kingdom, GS 11, 1988
•
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE.C95.1-1992
•
National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements
(NCRP). Report 86
•
Department of Health and Welfare Canada. Safety Code 6
These standards are based on extensive scientific review. For
example, over 120 scientists, engineers and physicians from
universities, government health agencies and industry reviewed
the available body of research to develop the updated ANSI
Standard.
The design of your phone complies with these standards when
used normally.
Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or approved replacement antenna.
Unauthorised antennas, modifications or attachments could
damage the phone and may violate FCC regulations.
Phone Operation
Normal Position
telephone with the antenna pointed up and over your shoulder.
Tips on Efficient Operation
efficiently:
•
Extend your antenna fully (if applicable).
•
Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when the phone is in
use. Contact with the antenna affects call quality and may
cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than
otherwise needed.

l2gt_en.bk : safety.fm5 Page 12 Friday, February 4, 2000 8:53 AM
Batteries
! All batteries can cause property damage, injury or burns
if a conductive material such as jewellery, keys or
beaded chains touches exposed terminals. The material
may complete an electrical circuit and become quite hot.
To protect against such unwanted current drain,
exercise care in handling any charged battery,
particularly when placing it inside your pocket, purse or
other container with metal objects. When the battery is
detached from the phone, your batteries are packed
with a protective battery cover; please use this cover for
storing your batteries when not in use.
Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless telephones
in the areas where you drive. Always obey them. Also, if using
your phone while driving, please:
•
give full attention to driving - driving safely is your first
responsibility
•
use hands-free operation, if available
•
pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if
driving conditions so require.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals.
However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded
against the RF signals from your wireless phone.
English

Safety
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that
a minimum separation of six (6”) inches be maintained between
a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential
interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are
consistent with the independent research by and
recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
•
ALWAYS
Should

•
Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
•
Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimise the
potential for interference.
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking
place, turn your phone
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing
aids. In the event of such interference you may want to consult
your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the
manufacturer of your device to determine if they are adequately
shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to
assist you in obtaining this information.
Turn your phone
regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals
or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be
sensitive to external RF energy.

Your Battery
Charging a New Battery
New batteries are supplied in a totally uncharged state.
To ensure maximum battery performance, a new battery (or
battery that has not been used for several months) should be
charged for at least 14 hours before use.
AA new battery will require several full charge/discharge
cycles in order to achieve its optimum performance.
AA new battery, or a battery that has not been used for
several months, may cause a premature fully charged
indication. Ignore this indication and let the battery charge
for several more hours, remove and re-insert the battery
into the charger, and charge for an additional 14 hours.
Important Battery Information
! Always treat your batteries with care. See ‘Batteries’, at
the beginning of this manual.
! Never leave your battery in extremely high
temperatures (over 60°C), for example behind glass in
very hot, direct sunlight.
! Only Motorola Original Accessory batteries can be
charged in the phone or the optional desktop charger.
This is to protect you and your phone from the risks of
incorrect charging.
ADo not use lithium ion batteries at extremely low
temperatures as the maximum standby/talk time will not be
available when cold.

Battery Indicators
Your Motorola cellular phone includes the Motorola Expert
Performance (¢) charging system. This enables the charging
circuits in both the phone and the optional (¢) desktop
charger to communicate directly with the battery. Based on this
communication, the charger can implement the optimum
charging cycle for best performance and determine the level of
charge.
Your phone monitors and displays information about your
battery. The following message will appear on the display, as the
condition occurs:
The battery charge is low. The battery should
be recharged.
No battery fitted; external power connected
This message is accompanied by a single beep.
Your phone is alerting you that you do not
have charging capabilities with this battery
even though the battery may be able to power
the phone.
The most likely reason why your charging
system does not recognise the battery is that
the battery you have purchased is not a
Motorola original battery and therefore does
not have the communications technology built
into it. All Motorola original batteries include
this communications technology.
It is recommended that you use only Motorola
original batteries, chargers and other
accessories.

Your SIM Card
Your SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card was supplied by your
Cellular Service Provider when you bought your phone. You will
not be able to make or receive calls if you do not have a SIM card

a SIM card inserted.
The SIM card is a ‘Smart Card’ that contains your phone number,
service details and memory for storing Phone Book numbers and
messages. You can therefore use your SIM card in someone else’s
GSM phone and you will be charged for the call.
Like a bank or credit card, you should keep your SIM card secure.
Do not bend or scratch your card and avoid exposure to static
electricity or water.
! Switch off your phone before inserting or removing the
SIM card. Failure to do so may damage the memory on
your SIM card.
