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 in user guides published prior to
December 1, 2002.
Exposure To Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
Your phone contains a transmitter and a receiver. When it is ON, it
receives and transmits RF energy. When you communicate with
your phone, the system handling your call controls the power level
at which your phone transmits.
Your Motorola phone is designed to comply with local regulatory
requirements in your country concerning exposure of human
beings to RF energy.
Operational Precautions
To assure optimal phone performance and make sure human
exposure to RF energy is within the guidelines set forth in the
relevant standards, always adhere to the following procedures.
External Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or Motorola-approved replacement antenna.
Unauthorised antennas, modifications, or attachments could
damage the phone.
Do NOT hold the external antenna when the phone is IN USE.
Holding the external antenna affects call quality and may cause the
phone to operate at a higher power level than needed. In addition,
use of unauthorised antennas may result in non-compliance with
the local regulatory requirements in your country.
6 - Safety and General Information
V180.UG.book Page 7 Thursday, June 17, 2004 2:29 PM
Phone Operation
When placing or receiving a phone call, hold your phone as you
would a wireline telephone.
Body-Worn Operation
To maintain compliance with RF energy 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 phone, if available. Use of
accessories not approved by Motorola may exceed RF energy
exposure guidelines. If you do not use one of the body-worn
accessories approved or supplied by Motorola, and are not using
the phone held in the normal use position, ensure the phone and its
antenna are at least 1 inch (2.5 centimetres) from your body when
transmitting.
Data Operation
When using any data feature of the phone, with or without an
accessory cable, position the phone and its antenna at least 1 inch
(2.5 centimetres) from your body.
Approved Accessories
Use of accessories not approved by Motorola, including but not
limited to batteries and antenna, may cause your phone to exceed
RF energy exposure guidelines. For a list of approved Motorola
accessories, visit our website at
www.Motorola.com
.
RF Energy Interference/Compatibility
Note: Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to RF energy
interference from external sources if inadequately shielded,
designed, or otherwise configured for RF energy compatibility. In
some circumstances your phone may cause interference.
Safety and General Information - 7
V180.UG.book Page 8 Thursday, June 17, 2004 2:29 PM
Facilities
Turn off your phone in any facility where posted notices instruct you
to do so. These facilities may include hospitals or health care
facilities that 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
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation
of 6 inches (15 centimetres) be maintained between a handheld
wireless phone and a pacemaker.
Persons with pacemakers should:
• ALWAYS keep the phone more than 6 inches (15 centimetres)
from your pacemaker when the phone is turned ON.
• NOT carry the phone in the breast pocket.
• Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimise 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 GP may be able to assist you in
obtaining this information.
8 - Safety and General Information
V180.UG.book Page 9 Thursday, June 17, 2004 2:29 PM
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 phone in the area over an air bag or in the air bag
deployment area. Air bags inflate with great force. If a 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 it is a phone type especially qualified
for use in such areas and certified as “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 fuelling 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.
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often but not
always posted.
Safety and General Information - 9
V180.UG.book Page 10 Thursday, June 17, 2004 2:29 PM
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 electronic devices.” Obey all
signs and instructions.
Batteries
Batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily injury such as
burns if a conductive material such as jewellery, keys, or beaded
chains touch exposed terminals. The conductive material may
complete an electrical circuit (short circuit) and become quite hot.
Exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when
placing it inside a pocket, bag, or other container with metal
objects. Use only Motorola original batteries and chargers.
Your battery or phone may contain symbols, defined as follows:
SymbolDefinition
Important safety information will follow.
Your battery or phone should not be disposed of in

Your battery or phone may require recycling in
accordance with local laws. Contact your local
regulatory authorities for more information.
Your battery or phone should not be thrown in the
trash.
LiIon BATT
Your phone contains an internal lithium ion
battery.
Seizures/Blackouts
Some people may be susceptible to epileptic seizures or blackouts
when exposed to blinking lights, such as when watching television
10 - Safety and General Information
V180.UG.book Page 11 Thursday, June 17, 2004 2:29 PM
or playing video games. These seizures or blackouts may occur
even if a person never had a previous seizure or blackout.
If you have experienced seizures or blackouts, or if you have a
family history of such occurrences, please consult with your doctor
before playing video games on your phone or enabling a blinkinglights feature on your phone. (The blinking-light feature is not
available on all products.)
Parents should monitor their children's use of video game or other
features that incorporate blinking lights on the phones. All persons
should discontinue use and consult a doctor if any of the following
symptoms occur: convulsion, eye or muscle twitching, loss of
awareness, involuntary movements, or disorientation.
To limit the likelihood of such symptoms, please take the following
safety precautions:
• Do not play or use a blinking-lights feature if you are tired or
need sleep.
• Take a minimum of a 15-minute break hourly.
• Play in a room in which all lights are on.
• Play at the farthest distance possible from the screen.
Repetitive Motion Injuries
When you play games on your phone, you may experience
occasional discomfort in your hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or
other parts of your body. Follow these instructions to avoid
problems such as tendonitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, or other
musculoskeletal disorders:
• Take a minimum 15-minute break every hour of game playing.
• If your hands, wrists, or arms become tired or sore while
playing, stop and rest for several hours before playing again.
• If you continue to have sore hands, wrists, or arms during or
after play, stop playing and see a doctor.

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; items attached to your phone’s
accessory connector; and your voice, data, and other application
usage patterns.
Caution: To prevent injuries or burns, do not allow metal objects to
contact or short-circuit the battery terminals.
To maximise 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 a long
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 your phone with you
when you leave your vehicle.
14 - Getting Started
V180.UG.book Page 15 Thursday, June 17, 2004 2:29 PM
• 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.
• 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 phone must be
disposed of properly and may need to be recycled. Refer to
your battery’s label for battery type. Contact your local
recycling centre for proper disposal methods.
Warning: Never dispose of batteries in a fire because they may
explode.
Installing the Battery
Note: If necessary, remove the battery from its protective clear
plastic case.
Your phone is designed to use only Motorola Original
batteries and accessories. We recommend that you store
batteries in their protective cases when not in use.
