Safety Information

Important:

wireless handheld phone.

Read this information before using your

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.

In August 1996, The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for handheld wireless phones. Those guidelines are consistent with safety standards previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies:

•

American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95. 1-1992

National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP). Report 86

•

International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996

•

Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6

Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic evaluations of the relevant scientiﬁc literature. For example, over 120 scientists, engineers, and physicians from universities, government health agencies, and industry reviewed the available body of research to develop the ANSI Standard (C95.1).

The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines (and those standards). For additional information concerning exposure to radio frequency signals, see the statement by the FDA at the end of this user guide.

To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if you wear a handset on your body , use the Motorola-supplied or approved carrying case, holster, or other body-worn accessory.

If you do not use a body-worn accessory, ensure the antenna is at least one inch (2.5 centimeters) from your body when transmitting. Use of nonMotorola accessories may violate FCC RF exposure guidelines.

Antenna Care

Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modiﬁcations, or attachments could damage the phone andmay violate FCC regulations.

Phone Operation

Normal Operation

Hold the phone as you would any other telephone, with the antenna pointed up and over your shoulder.

Overview

Tips on Efﬁcient Operation

Observe the following guidelines to operate your phone most 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.

Batteries

Caution:

injury, or burns if a conductive material, such as jewelry, 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

All batteries can cause property damage,

•

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. Observe the following guidelines when using your phone while driving.

•

Give full attention to driving--driving safely is your ﬁrst responsibility.

Use hands-free phone 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 equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your wireless phone.

Pacemakers

The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of six inches (6") 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:

•

should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from their pacemaker when the phone is turned ON

•

should not carry the phone in a breast pocket

should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference

•

should turn the phone OFF immediately if you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place

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 it is adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.

Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any 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.

•

Overview

Vehicles

RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.

Posted Facilities

Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted notices so require.

Aircraft

Switch OFF your phone before boarding an aircraft. Airline regulations prohibit using your phone while

in the air. Check and comply with the policy of your airline regarding the use of your phone while the aircraft is on the ground.

Blasting Areas

To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone OFF when in a "blasting area" or in areas posted: "Turn off two-way radio." Obey all signs and instructions.

Potentially Explosive Atmospheres

Turn your phone OFF, do not remove your battery when you are in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks from your battery in such areas could cause an explosion or ﬁre resulting in bodily injury or even death.

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always clearly marked. They include: fueling areas such as gasoline stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; areas where fuel odors are present (for example, if a gas/propane leak occurs in a car or home); areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders; and any other area where you normally would be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.

For Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag

An air bag inﬂates with great force. Do NOT place objects, including both installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inﬂates, serious injury could result.

Battery Charging Tips

To ensure that you enjoy maximum battery life and use your battery to its fullest capacity:

• Always use Motorola approved battery chargers.

• For the best results, Li-Ion batteries should be charged using the E•P™ Desktop Charger or your phone’s internal charger.

• The battery should be at or near room temperature when charging.

• When you don’t intend to use a battery for a while, store it uncharged in a cool, dark, dry place, such as a refrigerator.

• Battery life depends on the battery used, network conﬁguration, signal strength, and the features selected. Talking or using features on the phone uses more power than leaving it idle.

• Your phone operates more efﬁciently in digital mode than in analog mode.

Quick Change Power Source (“Seamless Connection”)

The quick change feature enables you to switch power sources while a call is in progress without losing the call. If you hear a low-battery warning while you are in a call, plug in the vehicle power adapter or AC Adapter.
