Exposure to Radio Frequency Signals
Antenna
Care
Phone
Operation
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)*
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).
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.
*American National Standards Institute; National Council on Radiation Protection and
Measurements; International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection

Safety Information
Caution: All batteries can cause property damage, injury or 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 placing it inside your pocket, purse or other container with metal objects. 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.
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.

Charging the Battery
With the Internal Rapid Charger
Believe it or not, there’s a battery charger built right into your phone! If your phone came with an AC adapter or cigarette lighter adapter, you can plug your phone directly into a power supply and charge the battery – whether the phone is ON or OFF. When the Internal Rapid Charger is in use and the phone is ON, you can still place and receive calls. Just remember, talking on the phone requires energy, so charging will take more time.
Note: The AC adapter and cigarette lighter adapter may or may not have been included with your phone.
1.Plug the AC 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 adapter into the appropriate power source.

Charging the Battery
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.
First plug the AC adapter into the back of the charger, with the release tab facing up. Plug the other end of the AC adapter into an AC wall socket, and you can begin charging your batteries. With battery(s) attached, place the phone into the charger’s front pocket. You can also charge an extra auxiliary or main battery in the rear pocket as shown:
Front Pocket |
Rear Pocket |
|
Tip: When you charge the main and an auxiliary battery, the main battery will be charged first.
What you will see when charging:
•Red means the battery is charging.
•Flashing yellow means the battery is waiting to be charged.
•Green means the battery is charged within 90% of its capacity and can be used. An additional hour of charging will bring your battery up to 100% capacity.
•Flashing red means the battery is damaged and can’t be charged.

21
Charging the Battery
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 temperature 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). As a good rule of thumb,
always 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’ve been charging your battery regularly and notice a decrease in talk-time or an increase in charging time, then it’s probably time to purchase a new battery.
22
Charging the Battery
Battery Storage and Disposal
To prolong the life of your batteries, avoid exposing them to temperatures below -10°C (14°F) or above 45°C (113°F).
As a good rule of thumb, always take your phone with you when you leave your car. To dispose of batteries, check with your local recycling center for a battery recycler near you. 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.

What you will see:
Each time you turn your phone ON, it will light up and perform a short self-test to let you know it’s operational. While your phone seeks an available network, you will see: Searching.
If your phone finds a CDMA digital system, you will see the time
and date, the |
icon, and either Ready or the personalizable |
banner (if programmed).

Turning Your Phone On
If your phone finds an analog system, you will see the 
icon and either Ready or your personalized banner.
Your phone can be activated with up to four unique phone numbers. If there’s more than one phone number programmed on your phone, you’ll see the currently active number instead of
Ready or the personalized banner.
Turn to Changing Your Number on page 88 if you want to change your currently active number.
To conserve energy, your phone enters standby mode and turns off the back light when you haven’t touched a key for a few seconds. The back light will come back on as soon you press a key or open the phone.
