Personality™

This cellular telephone incorporates Personality™. Unique to Motorola, Personality™ removes the complexity of cellular communications by guiding you through the features and presenting you with simple choices every step of the way. Personality™ also allows you to personalise the way you use your phone - for example, different ringer tones, a phone book and network selection preferences - all presented with clarity and simplicity. In this manual, each of the Personality™ features is identified with an jsymbol to indicate that it is customisable to meet your requirements.

Introduction 1
	English

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 Okey and then the Ckey, 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 bold 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.

Prompts and Messages

Your phone responds to key presses by displaying either easy to 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:

AA Note contains additional information which is relevant to the feature/item.

!A Caution contains important additional information which is relevant to the efficient and/or safe usage of your phone.

jThis symbol indicates that the feature is a Personality™ feature that can be customised to meet your requirements.

i This symbol indicates a short key sequence for the feature.

						English		2	Introduction

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; enters the In-call menu during a call.

Eenters the Quick Access menu.

Once entered, the menus use the ª, <, >, Oand Ckeys in a common manner to access, select and change individual options.

AYou can use the ªor <, >keys to scroll round the menus in either direction.

Leaving the Menus

To leave any of the menus, you can either press and hold the Ckey or repeatedly press the Ckey. Both of these actions will return your phone to the standby mode.

iAlternatively, 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). Pull ªdown to move forwards and push ª up to move backwards. When you find the option you want, press the Okey 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 Okey or browse through the other options using the scroll key.

To leave an option or sub-menu, press the Ckey. 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.

Introduction 3	English

Menu Navigation - A Working Example

The following steps will take you through how to switch the

Extended Menus option on:

1When the phone is in the standby mode, press the $ key.

This will access the Options menu and Access Internet will be displayed.#

2Press the ª« key repeatedly until the Phone Setup sub-menu item is shown in the display.

3Press the Okey to select the sub-menu.

4Press the ª« key repeatedly until the Extended Menus submenu item is shown in the display.

5Press the Okey to select this item. You can now select between On or Off, the current setting will be shown with a z character. If the zcharacter is next to Off, press ª©and then Oto switch on the Extended Menus. If the z character is next to On, press Cto leave the setting as it is.

#If your service provider has added their own menu, Access Internet will not be the first item in the Options menu.

†Availability depends on the type and settings of the SIM card and/or your subscription to these services where available.

						English		4	Introduction

jShort, Extended and Personalised Menus

With Personality™ you can personalise the menus by choosing which features you want readily available. The features that are less frequently used can be stored out of sight.

The menu diagrams in this manual show the condition of the menu settings when you first receive your phone. Some features are in the Short Menu and are shown in bold type. Other features are in the Extended Menu and appear in italics.

You can change which features appear in the Short and Extended Menus, and therefore personalise the menus, to suit your requirements.

If you want to move a feature from the Short Menu to the Extended Menu (or from the Extended Menu to the Short Menu), go to the feature and then hold down the Okey until a prompt appears offering the following choices:

•Add the current feature to the Short Menu/Extended Menu.

•Leave the current feature in the Short/Extended Menu. Select the option you want by pressing the Okey.

Total Customer Satisfaction

At Motorola, Total Customer Satisfaction is a top priority. If you have a question, a suggestion or a concern about your Motorola Cellular Phone, Motorola wants to hear from you.

Safety and General Information

Important Information on Safe and Efficient Operation

Read This Information Before Using

Your Personal Communicator

The information provided in this document supersedes the general safety information contained in user guides published prior to this date. For information regarding radio use in a hazardous atmosphere please refer to the Factory Mutual (FM) Approval Manual Supplement or Instruction Card, which is included with radio models that offer this capability.

RF Operational Characteristics

Your Personal Communicator contains a transmitter and a receiver. When it is ON, it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF) energy. The Personal Communicator operates in the frequency range of 900 MHz to 1990 MHz and employs digital modulation techniques.

When you communicate with your Personal Communicator, the system handling your call controls the power level at which your personal communicator transmits. The output power level typically may vary over a range from 0.063 watts to 1.58 watts.

Exposure To Radio Frequency Energy

Your Motorola Personal Communicator is designed to comply with the following national and international standards and guidelines regarding exposure of human beings to radio frequency electromagnetic energy:

•United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of Federal Regulations; 47 CFR part 2 sub-part J

•American National Standards Institute (ANSI) / Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95. 1-1992

•Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-1999 Edition

•National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) of the United States, Report 86, 1986

•International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1998

•National Radiological Protection Board of the United Kingdom 1995

•Ministry of Health (Canada) Safety Code 6. Limits of Human Exposure to Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields in the Frequency Range from 3 kHz to 300 GHz, 1999

Safety and General Information 11
	English

Portable Personal Communicator Operation

and EME Exposure

Antenna Care

Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the Personal Communicator and may violate FCC and/or other applicable regulations.

DO NOT hold the antenna when the Personal Communicator is “IN USE”. Holding the antenna affects call quality and may cause the Personal Communicator to operate at a higher power level than needed.

Phone Operation

The Personal Communicator is designed to be used with a headset for talking and listening. The Personal Communicator can also be placed inside the holster, then the holster can be clipped onto your belt, pocket, handbag, or other apparel and used with the headset.

Body-worn Operation

To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if you wear the Personal Communicator on your body when transmitting, always place the Personal Communicator in a Motorola supplied or approved clip, holder, holster, case, or body harness. Use of non-Motorola-approved accessories may exceed FCC RF exposure guidelines. If you do not use a body-worn accessory, ensure the antenna is at least one inch (2.5 cm) from your body when transmitting.

Approved Accessories

For a list of approved Motorola accessories, look in the accessory section of this manual.

							English		12 Safety and General Information

Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility

Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if inadequately shielded, designed or otherwise configured for electromagnetic compatibility.

Facilities

To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility conflicts, turn off your Personal Communicator in any facility where posted notices instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.

Aircraft

When instructed to do so, turn off your Personal Communicator when on board an aircraft. Any use of a Personal Communicator must be in accordance with applicable regulations per airline crew instructions.

Medical Devices

Pacemakers

The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of 6 inches (15 centimetres) be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by, and recommendations of, Wireless Technology Research.

Persons with pacemakers should:

•ALWAYS keep the Personal Communicator more than six inches (15 centimeters) from their pacemaker when the Personal Communicator is turned ON.

•not carry the Personal Communicator in the breast pocket.

•use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference.

•turn the Personal Communicator 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 RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.

Safety and General

Use in Vehicles

Check the laws and regulations on the use of phones in your vehicle. You are advised to always obey them.

When using your Personal Communicator in a vehicle, please:

•Use hands-free operation, if available.

•Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call.

Operational Warnings

For Vehicles with an Air Bag

Do not place the Personal Communicator in the area over an air bag or in the air bag deployment area. Air bags inflate with great force. If the Personal Communicator is placed in the air bag deployment area and the air bag inflates, the Personal Communicator may be propelled with great force and cause serious injury to occupants of the vehicle.

Potentially Explosive Atmospheres

Turn off your Personal Communicator prior to entering any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, unless it is especially qualified for use in such areas as “Intrinsically Safe” (for example, Factory Mutual, CSA, or UL Approved). Do not remove, install, or charge batteries in such areas. Sparks in a potentially explosive atmosphere can cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.

The areas with potentially explosive atmospheres referred to above include fuelling areas such as below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal powders, and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine. Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often but not always posted.

Blasting Caps and Areas

To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn off your Personal Communicator when you are near electrical blasting caps, in a blasting area, or in areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio”. Obey all signs and instructions.

Safety and General Information 13	English

Operational Cautions

Antennas

Do not use the Personal Communicator if it has a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with your skin, a minor burn can result.

Batteries

All batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily injury such as burns if a conductive material such as jewellery, keys, or beaded chains touch exposed terminals. The conductive material may complete an electrical circuit (short circuit) and become quite hot. Exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when placing it inside a pocket, purse, or other container with metal objects.

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 ‘Warranty Information’, 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 should 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.

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

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

Battery Performance and Maintenance

•Best battery performance will be achieved when you regularly charge and discharge batteries as instructed in this manual.

•Battery performance is greatly affected by network coverage.

•Set Battery Saving Mode to On (see Phone Setup Menu) and/or Frequency Of Search to Slow or Medium (see Network Selection Menu.)

•If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself in approximately one month.

•When not in use, store your battery uncharged in a cool, dark and dry place.

Low Battery Warning

When the battery level is low and only a few minutes of talk time remain, a warning signal (two double beeps) will sound, the border of the battery symbol will begin to flash, and Low Battery will be displayed.

Battery Indicators on the Phone Display

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 phone display, as the condition occurs:

Low Battery		The battery charge is low. The battery should
		be recharged.
Insert	Battery	No battery fitted; external power connected
Invalid	Battery	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.

Battery Indicators on the Desktop Charger

The following LED indicators flash/light on the desktop charger base, as the condition occurs:

³Front pocket phone indicator:

Lights up yellow only when the phone is properly seated in the charger. Check the charging status on the phone display. If there is a battery in the back pocket and the phone display is off, the phone battery is fully charged.

µ´ Back pocket battery indicator:

Left side solid red indicates that the battery is charging; right side flashing yellow indicates that the battery is waiting to be charged; both sides solid green indicates that the charging is complete (battery > 90% charged); both sides flashing red indicates an invalid or faulty battery has been detected or that there are two batteries in the back pocket and the batteries will not be charged.

¶Data indicator:

Flashes green only when data is transferring to an attached PC with the appropriate optional data cable. Data transfer must be initiated through the PC.
