###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:
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

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

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

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

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
1. Press and hold PWR to turn on your phone. ###24
2. If necessary, enter your SIM card PIN code and press the
Right soft key to unlock your SIM card.
