Wireless Phone Safety Tips
Your Motorola wireless telephone gives you the powerful ability to
communicate by voice—almost anywhere, anytime, wherever
wireless phone service is available and safe conditions allow. But an
important responsibility accompanies the benefits of wireless
phones, one that every user must uphold.
When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility. If you find it
necessary to use your wireless phone while behind the wheel of a
car, practice good common sense and remember the following tips:
1
2
3
4
5
“Safety is your most important call!”
Get to know your Motorola wireless phone and its features such
as speed dial and redial. If available, these features help you to
place your call without taking your attention off the road.
When available, use a hands-free device. If possible, add an
additional layer of convenience to your wireless phone with one
of the many Motorola Original hands-free accessories available
today.
Position your wireless phone within easy reach. Be able to access
your wireless phone without removing your eyes from the road. If
you receive an incoming call at an inconvenient time, if possible,
let your voice mail answer it for you.
Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving; if
necessary, suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather
conditions. Rain, sleet, snow, ice, and even heavy traffic can be
hazardous.
If you receive an incoming call at an inconvenient time do not
take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. Jotting
down a “to do” list or going through your address book takes
attention away from your primary responsibility—driving safely.
Safety
6
Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when
you are not moving or before pulling into traffic. Try to plan calls
when your car will be stationary. If you need to make a call while
moving, dial only a few numbers, check the road and your
mirrors, then continue.
7
Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may
be distracting. Make people you are talking with aware you are
driving and suspend conversations which have the potential to
divert your attention away from the road.
8
Use your wireless phone to call for help. Dial 9-1-1 or other local
emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident or medical
emergencies.*
9
Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. If you see
an auto accident, crime in progress or other serious emergency
where lives are in danger, call 9-1-1 or other local emergency
number, as you would want others to do for you.*
10
Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency wireless
assistance number when necessary. If you see a broken-down
vehicle posing no serious hazard, a broken traffic signal, a minor
traffic accident where no one appears injured, or a vehicle you
know to be stolen, call roadside assistance or other special nonemergency wireless number.*
Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless telephones
and their accessories in the areas where you drive. Always obey
them. The use of these devices may be prohibited or restricted in
certain areas.
For more information, please call 1-888-901-SAFE or visit the CTIA
website at www.wow-com.com™.
*Wherever wireless phone service is available.

Hand-Held Portable PCS Telephone
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 Commission (FCC)
adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for handheld
wireless phones. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety
standards previously set by both U.S. and international standards
bodies:
•
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95. 1-1992
•
National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement
(NCRP). Report 86
•
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection
(ICNIRP) 1996
•
Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6
Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic
evaluations of 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). For additional information concerning exposure
to radio frequency signals, see the statement by the FDA at the
Safety
10
end of this user guide.
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if you
wear a handset on your body, use the Motorola-supplied or
approved carrying case, holster, or other body-worn accessory. If
you do not use a body-worn accessory, ensure the antenna is at
least one inch (2.5 centimeters) from your body when
transmitting. Use of non-Motorola accessories may violate FCC
RF exposure guidelines.
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
Observe the following guidelines to operate your phone most
efficiently.
•
Extend your antenna fully, if applicable.
•
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.
Page 13
Batteries
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. 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.
Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless telephones
in the areas where you drive. Always obey them. Observe the
following guidelines when using your phone while driving.
•
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 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 inches (6”) 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
• should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;
• should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the
potential for interference;
• should turn the phone OFF 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 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.
V
ehicles
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
ON;
11
Page 14
Posted Facilities
Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted notices so
require.
Aircraft
Switch OFF your phone before boarding an aircraft.
Airline regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air.
Check and comply with the policy of your airline regarding the
use of your phone while the aircraft is on the ground.
Blasting Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone
OFF when in a “blasting area” or in areas posted: “Turn off twoway radio”. Obey all signs and instructions.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn your phone OFF, do not remove your battery when you are
in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, and obey all
signs and instructions. Sparks from your battery 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; areas where fuel odors are present (for
example, if a gas/propane leak occurs in a car or home); 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.
Safety
12
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 invehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air bag
inflates, serious injury could result.

Your Motorola cellular phone includes the Motorola Expert
Performance (¢) charging system. This enables the charging
circuits in both the phone and the optional (¢) desktop
charger to communicate directly with the battery. Based on this
communication, the charger can implement the optimum
charging cycle for best performance and determine the level of
charge.
Your phone monitors and displays information about your

This message is accompanied by a single beep.
Your phone is alerting you that you do not
have charging capabilities with this battery
even though the battery may be able to power
the phone.
The most likely reason why your charging
system does not recognize the battery is that
the battery you have purchased is not a

Your SIM Card
Your SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card was supplied by your
Service Provider when you bought your phone. You will not be
able to make or receive calls if you do not have a SIM card
inserted in your phone.
ASome networks allow you to make 911 emergency calls
without a SIM card inserted.
The SIM card is a ‘Smart Card’ that contains your phone number,
service details and memory for storing Phone Book numbers and
messages. You can therefore use your SIM card in someone else’s
GSM phone and you will be charged for the call.
Like a bank or credit card, you should keep your SIM card secure.
Do not bend or scratch your card and avoid exposure to static
electricity or water.
! Switch off your phone before inserting or removing the
SIM card. Failure to do so may damage the memory on
your SIM card.
SIM Card Insertion/Removal
1 Switch off your phone by pressing and holding the S key,
remove the battery cover and the battery.
2 Slide the SIM holder toward the right and lift up the left side
of the holder.
3 Remove the SIM card from the holder if necessary.

4 Insert the SIM card into the holder as shown. The SIM card
should be inserted with the notch at the top and facing
toward the base of the phone.
5 Replace the holder and press and slide it to the left to lock it
into place.
6 Replace the battery and battery cover.
If the SIM card is inserted the wrong way, or damaged, the

It will not be possible to make a phone call unless you are in an
area where there is GSM1900 service. When service has been
found, a series of rising bars, x, will show the signal
strength.
There are a number of different ways to make a phone call:
• Using the digit keys.
• Using automatic redial.
• Redialing the last number called.
• One-touch dialing a Phone Book entry*.
• Dialing a Phone Book entry*.
• Calling an embedded number in a message.
• Using the smart button (=) and Voice Control.

Then you may dial the following number:
5556911Ü1066Ü2001O.
The first part of the number would be used to call the voicemail
system.
When the call is answered the first pause will produce a delay of

iTAP - Locking a Word
You lock a word to give yourself a better selection of text options
or to stop the dynamic dictionary from changing the core text
you are using. The core text can change if you create a word that
is not in the dynamic dictionary.
You can lock a word in two ways:
• Use < or > to highlight an alternative text option (even
if you then return to the original text option). The highlighted
text then forms the basis for all subsequent text options.
• Use C to return to the core text you require. For example
you add
p to Scri but iTAP changes the text option to Paris.
If you press C and highlight
Pari, Pari is then locked.
iTAP - Punctuation and Upper Case Characters
When you select a word to go into the main display area, iTAP
automatically inserts a space. However, iTAP does not necessarily
add a space if you insert a punctuation character, for example, a
period.
Press 1 to add a punctuation character or symbol.
iTAP automatically adds an upper case character: at the
beginning of a message; at the beginning of a sentence; and at
the beginning of each word in the phone book.

then insert any new characters you require.
To delete the word before the cursor, press and hold C. If you
continue to press C, you delete the next word, and so on,
until you delete all the words.
iTAP - The Dynamic Dictionary
The dynamic dictionary learns the most recent and the most
frequent words that you use. This includes names and acronyms.
If there are words that you do not use frequently, then the
dynamic dictionary deletes these first to make room for new
words or words that are more frequently used.
The language you specify for the phone determines the dynamic
dictionary that it uses (if there is one is available). See Language Selection in Phone Setup.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Center
for Devices and Radiological Health Consumer Update
FDA has been receiving inquiries about the safety of mobile phones,
including cellular phones and PCS phones. The following summarizes
what is known--and what remains unknown--about whether these
products can pose a hazard to health, and what can be done to minimize
any potential risk. This information may be used to respond to questions.
Why the concern?
Mobile phones emit low levels of radiofrequency energy (i.e.,
radiofrequency radiation) in the microwave range while being used. They
also emit very low levels of radiofrequency energy (RF), considered nonsignificant, when in the stand-by mode. It is well known that high levels
of RF can produce biological damage through heating effects (this is how
your microwave oven is able to cook food). However, it is not known
whether, to what extent, or through what mechanism, lower levels of RF
might cause adverse health effects as well. Although some research has
been done to address these questions, no clear picture of the biological
effects of this type of radiation has emerged to date. Thus, the available
science does not allow us to conclude that mobile phones are absolutely
safe, or that they are unsafe. However, the available scientific evidence
does not demonstrate any adverse health effects associated with the use
of mobile phones.
What kinds of phones are in question?
Questions have been raised about hand-held mobile phones, the kind
that have a built-in antenna that is positioned close to the user's head
during normal telephone conversation. These types of mobile phones are
of concern because of the short distance between the phone's antenna-the primary source of the RF--and the person's head. The exposure to RF
from mobile phones in which the antenna is located at greater distances
from the user (on the outside of a car, for example) is drastically lower
than that from hand-held phones, because a person's RF exposure
on Mobile Phones
FDA Update
decreases rapidly with distance from the source. The safety of so-called
"cordless phones," which have a base unit connected to the telephone
wiring in a house and which operate at far lower power levels and
frequencies, has not been questioned.
How much evidence is there that hand-held mobile phones
might be harmful?
Briefly, there is not enough evidence to know for sure, either way;
however, research efforts are on-going. The existing scientific evidence is
conflicting and many of the studies that have been done to date have
suffered from flaws in their research methods. Animal experiments
investigating the effects of RF exposures characteristic of mobile phones
have yielded conflicting results. A few animal studies, however, have
suggested that low levels of RF could accelerate the development of
cancer in laboratory animals. In one study, mice genetically altered to be
predisposed to developing one type of cancer developed more than twice
as many such cancers when they were exposed to RF energy compared to
controls. There is much uncertainty among scientists about whether
results obtained from animal studies apply to the use of mobile phones.
First, it is uncertain how to apply the results obtained in rats and mice to
humans. Second, many of the studies that showed increased tumor
development used animals that had already been treated with cancercausing chemicals, and other studies exposed the animals to the RF
virtually continuously--up to 22 hours per day.
For the past five years in the United States, the mobile phone industry has
supported research into the safety of mobile phones. This research has
resulted in two findings in particular that merit additional study:
1 In a hospital-based, case-control study, researchers looked for an
association between mobile phone use and either glioma (a type of
brain cancer) or acoustic neuroma (a benign tumor of the nerve
sheath). No statistically significant association was found between
mobile phone use and acoustic neuroma. There was also no
association between mobile phone use and gliomas when all types of
FDA Update
93
Page 96
gliomas were considered together. It should be noted that the average
length of mobile phone exposure in this study was less than three
years.
When 20 types of glioma were considered separately, however, an
association was found between mobile phone use and one rare type
of glioma, neuroepithelliomatous tumors. It is possible with multiple
comparisons of the same sample that this association occurred by
chance. Moreover, the risk did not increase with how often the mobile
phone was used, or the length of the calls. In fact, the risk actually
decreased with cumulative hours of mobile phone use. Most cancer
causing agents increase risk with increased exposure. An ongoing
study of brain cancers by the National Cancer Institute is expected to
bear on the accuracy and repeatability of these results.
2 Researchers conducted a large battery of laboratory tests to assess the
effects of exposure to mobile phone RF on genetic material. These
included tests for several kinds of abnormalities, including mutations,
chromosomal aberrations, DNA strand breaks, and structural changes
in the genetic material of blood cells called lymphocytes. None of the
tests showed any effect of the RF except for the micronucleus assay,
which detects structural effects on the genetic material. The cells in
this assay showed changes after exposure to simulated cell phone
radiation, but only after 24 hours of exposure. It is possible that
exposing the test cells to radiation for this long resulted in heating.
Since this assay is known to be sensitive to heating, heat alone could
have caused the abnormalities to occur. The data already in the
literature on the response of the micronucleus assay to RF are
conflicting. Thus, follow-up research is necessary.
FDA is currently working with government, industry, and academic
groups to ensure the proper follow-up to these industry-funded research
findings. Collaboration with the Cellular Telecommunications Industry
Association (CTIA) in particular is expected to lead to FDA providing
research recommendations and scientific oversight of new CTIA-funded
research based on such recommendations.
FDA Update
94
Two other studies of interest have been reported recently in the literature:
1 Two groups of 18 people were exposed to simulated mobile phone
signals under laboratory conditions while they performed cognitive
function tests. There were no changes in the subjects' ability to recall
words, numbers, or pictures, or in their spatial memory, but they were
able to make choices more quickly in one visual test when they were
exposed to simulated mobile phone signals. This was the only change
noted among more than 20 variables compared.
2 In a study of 209 brain tumor cases and 425 matched controls, there
was no increased risk of brain tumors associated with mobile phone
use. When tumors did exist in certain locations, however, they were
more likely to be on the side of the head where the mobile phone was
used. Because this occurred in only a small number of cases, the
increased likelihood was too small to be statistically significant.
In summary, we do not have enough information at this point to assure
the public that there are, or are not, any low incident health problems
associated with use of mobile phones. FDA continues to work with all
parties, including other federal agencies and industry, to assure that
research is undertaken to provide the necessary answers to the
outstanding questions about the safety of mobile phones.
What is known about cases of human cancer that have been
reported in users of hand-held mobile phones?
Some people who have used mobile phones have been diagnosed with
brain cancer. But it is important to understand that this type of cancer
also occurs among people who have not used mobile phones. In fact,
brain cancer occurs in the U.S. population at a rate of about 6 new cases
per 100,000 people each year. At that rate, assuming 80 million users of
mobile phones (a number increasing at a rate of about 1 million per
month), about 4800 cases of brain cancer would be expected each year
among those 80 million people, whether or not they used their phones.
Thus it is not possible to tell whether any individual's cancer arose
because of the phone, or whether it would have happened anyway. A
key question is whether the risk of getting a particular form of cancer is
greater among people who use mobile phones than among the rest of
Page 97
the population. One way to answer that question is to compare the
usage of mobile phones among people with brain cancer with the use of
mobile phones among appropriately matched people without brain
cancer. This is called a case-control study. The current case-control study
of brain cancers by the National Cancer Institute, as well as the follow-up
research to be sponsored by industry, will begin to generate this type of
information.
What is FDA's role concerning the safety of mobile phones?
Under the law, FDA does not review the safety of radiation-emitting
consumer products such as mobile phones before marketing, as it does
with new drugs or medical devices. However, the agency has authority to
take action if mobile phones are shown to emit radiation at a level that is
hazardous to the user. In such a case, FDA could require the
manufacturers of mobile phones to notify users of the health hazard and
to repair, replace or recall the phones so that the hazard no longer exists.
Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA regulatory actions
at this time, FDA has urged the mobile phone industry to take a number
of steps to assure public safety. The agency has recommended that the
industry:
• support needed research into possible biological effects of RF of the
type emitted by mobile phones;
• design mobile phones in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to the
user that is not necessary for device function ; and
• cooperate in providing mobile phone users with the best possible
information on what is known about possible effects of mobile phone
use on human health.
At the same time, FDA belongs to an interagency working group of the
federal agencies that have responsibility for different aspects of mobile
phone safety to ensure a coordinated effort at the federal level. These
agencies are:
• National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health
• Environmental Protection Agency
• Federal Communications Commission
• Occupational Health and Safety Administration
• National Telecommunications and Information Administration
The National Institutes of Health also participates in this group.
In the absence of conclusive information about any possible risk,
what can concerned individuals do?
If there is a risk from these products--and at this point we do not know
that there is--it is probably very small. But if people are concerned about
avoiding even potential risks, there are simple steps they can take to do
so. For example, time is a key factor in how much exposure a person
receives. Those persons who spend long periods of time on their handheld mobile phones could consider holding lengthy conversations on
conventional phones and reserving the hand-held models for shorter
conversations or for situations when other types of phones are not
available.
People who must conduct extended conversations in their cars every day
could switch to a type of mobile phone that places more distance
between their bodies and the
source of the RF, since the exposure level drops off dramatically with
distance. For example, they could switch to
• a mobile phone in which the antenna is located outside the vehicle,
• a hand-held phone with a built-in antenna connected to a different
antenna mounted on the outside of the car or built into a separate
package, or
• a headset with a remote antenna to a mobile phone carried at the
waist.
Again, the scientific data do not demonstrate that mobile phones are
harmful. But if people are concerned about the radiofrequency energy
from these products, taking the simple precautions outlined above can
reduce any possible risk.
