IMPORTANT EXPORT INFORMATION
Because of federal export regulations applicable to this Motorola phone, it cannot be sold for export from the U.S.A. or Canada. Please read the following important notice.
EXPORT LA W ASSURANCES:
This product is controlled under the export regulations of the United States of America and Canada. This product cannot be exported from the United States or Canada without an export license issued by the U.S. Department of Commerce. In addition to the U.S. license, if this product is to be exported from Canada, an Export Permit issued by the Canada Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade must be obtained before export.
Safety Information
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 Commissions (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for hand-held wireless phones. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standards previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies:
ANSI C95.1 (1992)
NCRP - Report 86 (1986)*
ICNIRP (1996)*
DHWC - 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).

Safety Information
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the phone and may violate FCC regulations.
Normal Position:
Hold the phone as you would any other telephone, with the antenna pointed up and over your shoulder.
Tips on Efficient Operation:
For your phone to operate most efficiently:
Extend your antenna fully.
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.
:
All batteries can cause property damage, injury or burns
Caution
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 placing it inside your pocket, purse or other container with metal objects. When the battery is detached from the phone: your battery is packed with a protective cover; please use this cover for storing your battery when not in use.
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.
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.

Safety Information
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:
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.
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn your phone OFF immediately.
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 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.
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.

Safety Information
Posted Facilities
Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted notices so require. Aircraft FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while an aircraft is airborne. Check and comply with the policy of your airline regarding the use of your phone while the aircraft is on the ground.
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.
Turn your phone OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks 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; vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane); 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.
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.
Your wireless radiotelephone is designed for excellent durability under normal use conditions. Protect your wireless telephone from water damage that could result from spills or excessive exposure to rain. Never submerge your wireless phone.
Cleaning of this product should only be done with a damp cloth. The use of chemical cleaners may harm the finish and integrity of the radio housing and is not recommended.

Introduction to Batteries
Each battery is shipped in an uncharged state with a protective clip on it. Before you can use your phone, you will need to remove the clip from the battery and charge it.
Battery Clips
It is a good idea to save the protective clip to store and carry the battery when not in use. The clip prevents objects from touching the battery terminals, thereby reducing the risk of injury or damage from a short circuit.

To prolong the life of batteries, avoid exposing them to temperatures below -10
°
C (14°F) or above 45°C (113°F). It is a good idea to take your phone with you when you leave your car. Never dispose of batteries in fire.
Caution:
To prevent injuries or burns, do not allow metal
objects to contact or short circuit the battery terminals.
Expert Performance (E•P®)Charging System
The E•P system enables your phone’s built-in charger to communicate with installed batteries and tailor its charging cycle to optimize performance. If you see
Invalid Battery
when you power up the phone, the built-in charger is not able to communicate with the battery and cannot charge it. There are several possible reasons for this message. The most likely one is that the battery is not a Motorola original and it does not have the appropriate E•P technology. We recommend that you use only Motorola original batteries and accessories and that you store your batteries in their protective clips when not in use.

Green means the battery is charged to 90% of its capacity.
Another hour of charging will bring it up to 100% capacity.
Flashing red means the battery is damaged and cannot be
charged.
Desktop Charger Charging Times
The time it takes for your battery to obtain a full charge is affected by a variety of factors, including:
Temperature Batteries should be at or near room tempera-
ture when charging. To prolong battery life and charge capacity, avoid exposing your batteries to temperatures below
-10°C (14°F) or above 45°C (113°F). It is a good idea to take your phone with you when you leave your car.
Inactivity New batteries, or batteries that have been stored
for long periods of time, may not rapid charge properly. In these instances, the battery requires an overnight charge.
Extended Usage 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.
