Safety Information
Important:
Read this information before using your
wireless handheld phone.
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
Commissions (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)
C95.1 1992
• National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP) Report 86 1986
• International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996
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).
iv
The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines
(and those standards).

Safety Information (Continued)
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.
Phone Operation
Normal Operation
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.
Batteries
Caution:
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 it
is 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.
All batteries can cause property damage, injury, or

Safety Information (Continued)
Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless
telephones in the areas where your 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.
Electronic Devices
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.
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:
vi
• Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six
inches from their pacemaker when the phone is 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.
Welcome
Safety Information (Continued)
Electronic Devices (Continued)
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.
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
FCC regulations prohibit phone usage while in the air.
Switch off your phone before boarding an aircraft.
Welcome
vii
Safety Information (Continued)
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
T urn your phone off 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.
viii
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.

you can plug the handset directly into a power source to
charge any attached batteries.
To charge:
1.
Plug the AC adapter
or cigarette lighter
adapter into the
accessory connector on the bottom
of your phone as shown, with the release tab facing
up.
2.
Plug the power adapter into a 110V AC electrical
outlet. You will hear a beep-tone and you will see
the battery icon flashing.
See “Charge Times” on page 37 for charge times.
32 Getting Started
Using the Desktop Charger
The desktop charger’s front pocket can charge batteries
while they are attached to your phone, and the rear pocket
can charge batteries separately.
To charge:
1.
First, plug the AC adapter into the back of the charger, with the release tab facing up.
2.
Plug the other end of the AC adapter into an AC wall socket.
3.
With battery(s) attached, place the phone into the charger’s front pocket.
4.
You can insert an extra auxiliary or main battery into the rear pocket.
Note: The detachable plug assembly included with your
package can only be used for this power supply . Do not plug
it into any wall outlet without the power supply.
Tip:
If you attach an
auxiliary battery
along with the
main battery and
insert another
battery into the
rear pocket of
the desktop
charger, you’ll
have three
charged batteries
ready to go in the

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 plan on using a particular battery
for a while, it’s a good idea to store the battery
uncharged in a cool, dark, and dry place like your
refrigerator.
• Do not leave a NiMH battery connected to any
charger for longer than 24 hours.
A new NiMH battery may require several full charge/
discharge cycles in order to achieve its optimum
performance. After this initial charge, you can recharge
your battery at your convenience, using the phone’s rapid
travel charger.

Quick Change Battery Replacement
You can also remove your phone’s battery and replace it
with a charged spare without losing the call in progress. If
you hear a low battery warning while you are in a call,
quickly switch batteries and resume your conversation.
Be aware that a quick change must be completed in three
seconds to avoid losing the call in progress. Just give your
party on the line a warning before beginning this
procedure.
Caution: To prevent injuries or burns, do not allow metal
objects to contact or short circuit the battery terminals.

Using Your Built-in Phone Book
How Your Phone Book Is Organized
Each phone number is stored in a “memory location”
within the phone, numbered 01-99. You can arrange the
numbers in your Phone Book for convenient recall by
storing related numbers in groups of ten.
For example, store your nine most frequently called
numbers in locations 01-09. Then, you can use the Turbo
Dial function to call those numbers with the push of a
single key. You could store business phone numbers in
locations 10-19, family numbers in 20-29, friends in 30-39,
and so on.
You can also store names to help identify phone numbers.
Later, you can easily recall a number either by its memory
location or by name that corresponds to it.
If someone you know has more than one phone number,
you could quickly recall the number you need by storing it
with a descriptive name, for example:
