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 range of 824 MHz to 849 MHz in analog and digital mode and 1851.25 MHz to

1908.75 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

Safety and General Information

range from 0.05 watts to 0.56 watts in analog mode and 0.0 watts to 0.32 watts in digital mode.

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:

• 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

Safety and General Information

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.

Phone Operation

When placing or receiving a phone call, hold your phone as you would a wireline telephone. Speak directly into

the microphone.

Body-Worn Operation

To maintain compliance with FCC/Health Canada RF exposure guidelines, if you wear a phone on your body when transmitting, always place the phone in a Motorola-supplied or approved clip, holder, holster, case, or body harness for this product. Use of non-Motorola-approved accessories may exceed FCC/Health Canada RF exposure guidelines. If you do not use one of the Motorola-supplied or approved body-worn accessories, and are not using the phone held in the normal use position, ensure the phone and its antenna

are at least one inch (2.5 centimeters) from your body when transmitting.

Safety and General Information

Data Operation

When using any data feature of the phone, with or without an accessory cable, position the phone and its antenna at

least one inch (2.5 centimeters) from your body.

Approved Accessories

For a list of approved Motorola accessories, visit our website at

www.mot.com

Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility

Note: Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to

electromagnetic interference (EMI) if inadequately shielded, designed, or otherwise conﬁgured for electromagnetic compatibility.

Facilities

To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility

conﬂicts, turn off your phone in any facility where posted notices instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care f acilities may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.

Aircraft

When instructed to do so, turn off your phone when on board an aircraft. Any use of a phone must be in accordance with applicable regulations per airline crew instructions.

Medical Devices

Pacemakers

The Advanced Medical Technology Association recommends

Safety and General Information

that a minimum separation of 6 inches (15 centimeters) be

maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by, and recommendations of, the United States Food and Drug Administration.

Persons with pacemakers should:

• ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches (15 centimeters) from your pacemaker when the phone is turned ON.

• NOT carry the phone in the breast pocket.

• use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the

potential for interference.

• turn OFF the phone immediately if you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place.

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 RF energy . Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.

Safety and General Information

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 v ehicle engine. Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often but not always

Safety and General Information

posted.

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

Antennas

Do not use any portable phone that has a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with your

skin, a minor burn can result.

Batteries

All batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily injury such as burns if a conductive material such as jewelry, keys, or beaded chains touches exposed terminals. The conductive material may complete an electrical circuit (short circuit) and become quite hot. Ex ercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when placing it inside a pocket, purse, or other container with metal objects.

About Your Phone

Battery Use

Battery performance depends on many factors, including your wireless carrier’s network conﬁguration; signal strength; the temperature at which y ou oper ate y our

phone; the features and/or settings you select and use; and your voice, data, and other application usage patterns.

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 co ver 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°C (14°F) or above 45°C (113°F). Always take y our 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.

About Your Phone

• 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.

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 your display backlight

The backlight uses power. To turn it off, see page 57.

• Minimize keypad-intense functions

Activities that require intensive ke ystroke 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 131.
