###1 WELCOME Welcome to the world of Motorola digital wireless communications! We are pleased that you have chosen the Motorola 280i wireless phone.
KNOW YOUR PHONE Before you start to use your phone, take time to examine it. The phone is basically a rectangle with an antenna on the end. Place the phone on a flat surface with the antenna at the top right, and look over the case.
THE EDGES OF THE CASE POWER KEY: The Power Key may be found at the top curve of the case at the opposite end from the antenna. Turn the phone on and off with this button. HEADSET JACK: You will find the Headset jack around the left edge of the case, under the power key. Insert headset accessory here. VOLUME KEYS: Continue following the case around the left edge and you will find the Volume keys. These keys adjust earpiece and ringer volume. The upper key will increase volume; the lower key will decrease volume. ACCESSORY CONNECTOR PORT: This port is found at the bottom edge of the case. Insert charger and phone accessories here. The charger connection will use only the left side of the port. VOICE KEY: The Voice Key is on the right side of the case, at about the same level as the Volume Keys. This key will allow you to record voice notes, phonebook and shortcut names.
THE CASE FACE EARPIECE: The earpiece is at the top of the case front. DISPLAY: The display area is located under the earpiece. This area may arrive from the factory with a protective plastic covering. This serves no function in the use of the phone and may be removed by pulling on the tab.
The lower half of the phone holds the major function areas for your phone. You will find a long button at the base of the display area. This button is actually made up of three separate keys. The center section is the MENU key and the right and left keys are the Right and Left "soft" keys. LEFT SOFT KEY: Perform functions identified by left display prompt. These directions will be specified in the manual directions wherever possible. RIGHT SOFT KEY: Perform functions identified by right display prompt. These directions will be specified in the manual directions wherever possible. MENU: This is the main key for entering various menu features. END KEY: This key is located under the Left soft key. It will end phone calls and exit the menu system. SEND KEY: This key is located under the Right soft key. It will send and answer calls, and display recent dialed calls list.
4-WAY NAVIGATION KEY: This key is found under the Menu key. It is used to move through menus and lists. To use the key, press the outside of the round key FROM the opposite side of the direction you want to move, and push TOWARD the direction you want to move. (Do not try to push directly on the center of the key; this will have no result.) * IMPORTANT NOTE: Although this key may be used to navigate through the menu system, this use may be display dependent. The directions in this manual will be presented in a non-scroll navigation method. Details of using this method will be given within the sections of the various features. This key is referred to in this manual as "4-Way."
The bottom half of the phone face is a standard alphanumeric keypad. From the top to the bottom, and left to right, these keys are arranged as follows:
Row 1: 1--Message key, 2--abc, 3--def Row 2: 4--ghi, 5--jkl, 6--mno Row 3: 7--pqrs, 8--tuv, 9--wxyz Row 4: Star Key--left arrow, 0--plus sign, Pound Key--right arrow
MICROPHONE: The microphone is found under the Pound key. INFRARED DATA PORT: This feature allows for data transfer. The port is located at the top of the phone case, between the antenna and the PWR key. ###2 Personal Communications Sector 600 North U.S. Highway 45 Libertyville, Illinois 60048 1-800-331-6456 (United States) 1-888-390-6456 (TTY/TDD United States) 1-800-461-4575 (Canada) www.motorola.com (United States) www.motorola.ca (Canada)

###10 SAFETY AND GENERAL INFORMATION IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON SAFE AND EFFICIENT OPERATION. READ THIS INFORMATION BEFORE USING YOUR PHONE. The information provided in this document supersedes the general safety information contained in user guides published prior to July 2000. 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. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
RF OPERATIONAL CHARACTERISTICS Your phone contains a transmitter and a receiver. When it is ON, it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF) energy. The phone operates in the frequency ranges of 880 MHz to 915 MHz, 1710 MHz to 1785 MHz, and 1850 MHz to 1910 MHz in digital mode. When you communicate with your phone, the system handling your call controls the power levels at which your phone transmits. The output power level typically may vary over a range from 0.0 watts to 1.58 watts in digital mode for the 900MHz band, 0.0 watts to 1.00 watts in digital mode for the 1800MHz band, and 0.0 watts to 0.80 watts in digital mode for the 1900MHz band.
EXPOSURE TO RADIO FREQUENCY ENERGY Your Motorola phone is designed to comply with the following national and international standards and guidelines regarding exposure of human beings to radio frequency electromagnetic energy: ###11
--United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of 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
--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
--Australian Communications Authority Radiocommunications (Electromagnetic Radiation--Human Exposure) Standard 1999
To assure optimal phone performance and make sure human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy is within the guidelines set forth in the above standards, always adhere to the following procedures:
Portable Phone Operation and EME Exposure
Antenna Care
: Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the phone and may violate FCC regulations.
Do NOT hold the antenna when the phone is in use
. Holding the antenna affects call quality and may cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than needed.

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. ###14 SAFETY AND GENERAL USE WHILE DRIVING Check the laws and regulations on the use of phones in the area where you drive. Always obey them. When using your phone while driving, please:
--give full attention to driving and to the road.
--use hands-free operation, if available.
--pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require.
OPERATIONAL WARNINGS
For Vehicles With an Air Bag
: Do not place a portable phone in the area over an air bag or in the air bag deployment area. Air bags inflate with great force. If a portable phone is placed in the air bag deployment area and the air bag inflates, the phone may be propelled with great force and cause serious injury to occupants of the vehicle.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
: Turn off your phone prior to entering any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, unless the phone is a model specifically identified as being "Intrinsically Safe." 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. NOTE: The areas with potentially explosive atmospheres referred to above include fueling 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. ###15 Blasting Caps and Areas: To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn OFF your phone 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.
OPERATIONAL CAUTIONS

OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES The OPTIONAL ACCESSORY label identifies a feature that requires an optional Motorola Original (tm) accessory.
INSTALLING THE SIM CARD Your SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card contains your
phone number, service details, and phonebook/message memory. CAUTION: Do not bend or scratch your SIM card. Avoid exposing your SIM card to static electricity, water, or dirt.
1. Switch off your phone by pressing and holding the PWR key, remove the battery cover and the battery. (See "Removing the Battery" on page 21.) The SIM card compartment is located in the battery compartment of the phone. As you examine the compartment, you will notice that the bottom section is recessed, and has various irregularities in it. This area is the SIM card compartment. Using your thumb, gently search the area until you find a section that moves from side to side and has a click as it slides. This is the SIM card holder.
2. Slide the SIM card holder towards the left until it clicks. Turning the phone over at this point will allow the cover to fall open. ###18
3. If necessary, remove the SIM card from the cover by sliding it out.
4. Notice that the SIM card has one corner that is angled. With the angled corner at the top right, slide the SIM card into the channels of the cover as far as you can. (It will extend beyond the cover about 1/8 inch.) This is the only way the SIM card will fit into the compartment. DO NOT TRY TO FORCE THE CARD TO FIT. You must have the card sliding down the channels of the cover.
5. Close the SIM cover, then press and slide it to the right to lock it into place.
6. Replace the battery and battery cover. DISPLAY TIP: If the SIM card is inserted the wrong way around, or damaged, the CHECK CARD message may be displayed. Remove the SIM card, check that it is the right way around and then re-insert it into the phone. If either of the BAD CARD SEE SUPPLIER or BLOCKED SEE SUPPLIER messages is displayed, then you need to contact your Service Provider.
INSTALLING THE BATTERY Before you can use your phone, you need to install and charge the battery. Your phone is designed to be used only with Motorola Original batteries and accessories. We recommend that you store batteries in their protective cases when not in use. ###19
1. Remove the battery from its protective clear plastic case.
2. If the phone's battery door is already in place, push down the battery door release latch, then slide the door down and lift off.
3. The battery is a flat rectangle with one notched edge. One side of the notched edge is indented and smooth; the other side has the battery contacts in the center. Insert the battery into the compartment with the contacts facing into the compartment and toward the top of the phone.
4. Push the battery down under the tabs at the top edge of the compartment, and snap it into place.
5. Replace the battery door, then slide the door up until it clicks into place. ###20 CHARGING THE BATTERY New batteries are shipped partially charged. Before you can use your phone, you need to install and charge the battery, as indicated by the following instructions. Some batteries perform best after several full charge/discharge cycles.
1. Plug the travel charger into your phone with the release tab facing up. The charger is connected at the left side of the accessory port.
2. Plug the other end of the travel charger into the appropriate electrical outlet.
3. When your phone indicates that the battery is fully charged (DISPLAY: Charge Complete), press the release tab and remove the travel charger.
DISPLAY NOTE: When you charge the battery, the battery level indicator in the upper right corner of the display shows how much of the charging process is complete. ###21 REMOVING THE BATTERY
1. Push down on the battery-door release-latch (located about 2/3 of the way up the back of the phone case) then slide the door down and lift off.
2. Pull down the battery release latch located at the center bottom of the open compartment, immediately above the accessory port.
3. While holding the release latch down, pull up on the battery and remove it from the phone.
BATTERY USE Battery performance depends on many factors, including your wireless carrier's network configuration; signal strength; the temperature at which you operate your phone; the features and/or settings you select and use; and your voice, data, and other application usage patterns. ###22 BATTERY CARE CAUTION: To prevent injuries or burns, do not allow metal objects to contact or short-circuit the battery terminals.
To maximize your battery's performance:
--Always use Motorola Original batteries and battery chargers. The phone warranty does not cover damage caused from using non-Motorola batteries and/or battery chargers.
--New batteries or batteries that have been stored for long periods of time may require a longer charge time.
--Maintain the battery at or near room temperature when charging.
--Do not expose batteries to temperatures below -10 degrees C (14 degrees F) or above 45 degrees C (113 degrees F). Always take your phone with you when you leave your vehicle.
--When you do not intend to use a battery for a while, store it uncharged in a cool, dark, dry place, such as a refrigerator.
--Over extended periods of time, batteries gradually wear down and require longer charging times. This is normal. If you charge your battery regularly and notice a decrease in talk time
or an increase in charging time, then it is probably time to purchase a new battery. ###23 The rechargeable batteries that power this product must be disposed of properly and may need to be recycled. Refer to your battery's label for battery type. Contact your local recycling center for proper disposal methods. Never dispose of batteries in a fire because they may explode.
EXTENDING BATTERY LIFE
--Turn off the display backlight. See page 28.
--Turn off the screen saver. Using an animated screen saver reduces your phone's talk and standby time. To turn it off, see page 109.
--Minimize keypad-intense functions. Activities that require intensive keystroke use (such as playing a game or using messaging) reduce your phone's talk and standby time. Lock the keypad when storing the phone in your purse or pocket to avoid unnecessary keypad and backlight activations. See page 144.
TURNING YOUR PHONE ON
