Introduction

Welcome

Congratulations on your purchase of a phone from Motorola, the world leader in cellular technology. The phones are packed with features that put you in control and give you unrivalled power, whilst remaining discrete.

Control

Customisable Quick Access Menu E- Place nine of your most frequently used features in your own personal menu so that they can be accessed with just two key presses. Icons make each feature easy to identify.

Discretion

VibraCall™ L- In locations where you don’t want your phone to ring, or which are too noisy to hear your phone ring, your phone can vibrate to alert you of a call.

Wearable Holster - Wear your phone in a stylish holster on your belt. It is small enough and light enough to keep with you almost anywhere.

Stop Call Alert - Press either of the volume buttons when the phone is ringing or vibrating. This will stop the alert but not answer the call.

Power

Superb battery performance G- Each phone is capable of several hours conversation or several days standby, but is still small and light.

Dual Band - versions of the phone include the powerful dual band feature which means that they can use both 900 and 1800 MHz bands for greater call success and allow wider roaming opportunities.

!Before you use your phone, please see the ‘Your Battery’ section for important information on charging a new battery.

Personality™

This cellular telephone incorporates Personality™. Unique to Motorola, Personality™ removes the complexity of cellular communications by guiding you through the features and presenting you with simple choices every step of the way. Personality™ also allows you to personalise the way you use your phone - for example, different ringer tones, a phone book and network selection preferences - all presented with clarity and simplicity. In this manual, each of the Personality™ features is identified with an jsymbol to indicate that it is customisable to meet your requirements.

Understanding this Manual

Many of your phone options are accessed by a simple menu system. A full description of the menus and how to move around them is covered in the next section Menu Navigation. When the manual describes the use of each menu item, it will be assumed that you are familiar with the menu system.

Key Presses

Key presses are represented in this manual using symbols so that you may locate and use the required sequence quickly. A sequence of key presses may be shown as follows:

$OC

This means that you should press the $key followed by the Okey and then the Ckey, in sequence, not simultaneously.

Entering Information

When you are requested to enter information, such as the number of the phone you wish to call, this is represented in bold type. For example:

C- enter the required telephone number.

A- enter your Personal Identification Number.

B- enter your unlock code.

G- enter the Phone Book location number.

Prompts and Messages

Your phone responds to key presses by displaying either easy to understand prompts that guide you to the next action, or simple messages confirming that your action is complete. Prompts and messages are represented in this manual in LCD style, for example:

Enter PIN or Completed.

Other Symbols

You will find the following symbols used throughout this manual:

AA Note contains additional information which is relevant to the feature/item.

!A Caution contains important additional information which is relevant to the efficient and/or safe usage of your phone.

jThis symbol indicates that the feature is a Personality™ feature that can be customised to meet your requirements.

iThis symbol indicates a short key sequence for the feature.

st211_en.bk : intro.fm5 Page 3 Monday, August 23, 1999 10:24 AM

Menu Navigation

A large number of your phone's options are accessed by using menus which use a common approach for selection, change and cancellation.

Please read this section carefully before attempting to access a menu option. When you understand the common approach to menu navigation and how the menus are shown on the page, you will be able to access and change options with ease.

Entering the Menus

Two different keys (three on flip phones) are used to access the menus:

$enters the Options menu whilst in standby mode; enters the In-call menu during a call.

Eenters the Quick Access menu.

Once entered, the menus use the $, <, >, Oand Ckeys in a common manner to access, select and change individual options.

Leaving the Menus

To leave any of the menus, you can either press and hold the Ckey or repeatedly press the Ckey. Both of these actions will return your phone to the standby mode.

iAlternatively, a quicker way to leave the menus is to press

EC.

Menus and Sub-menus

A menu is a simple list of options. Some of these options provide access to a further list of options called a sub-menu. When navigating through the menus you may find it is helpful to think in terms of menu levels - the ‘parent’ menu being on one level and its sub-menus being on a lower level.

Moving To and Selecting a Menu Option

To move from one option to another on the same level, use the scroll keys: the >key scrolls forwards and the <key scrolls backwards. When you find the option you want, press the O key to select it.

Depending on the option you select, one of three things will happen:

either a brief message will be displayed confirming an action, for example Completed.

or a prompt will be displayed requesting you to enter

information, for example Enter PIN or Enter Name.

or the first option of a sub-menu will be displayed. You can select this option using the Okey or browse through the other options using the scroll keys.

To leave an option or sub-menu, press the Ckey. This will take you back to the parent menu item.

Menu Options with Security Codes

Some options are protected from misuse by requiring you to entry one of the security codes. To use these options, you must enter the requested code before proceeding.

jShort, Extended and Personalised Menus

With Personality™ you can personalise the menus by choosing which features you want readily available. The features that are less frequently used can be stored out of sight.

The menu diagrams in this manual show the condition of the menu settings when you first receive your phone. Some features are in the Short Menu and are shown in bold type. Other features are in the Extended Menu and appear in italics.

You can change which features appear in the Short and Extended Menus, and therefore personalise the menus, to suit your requirements.

If you want to move a feature from the Short Menu to the Extended Menu (or from the Extended Menu to the Short Menu), go to the feature and then hold down the Okey until a prompt appears offering the following choices:

Add the current feature to the Short Menu/Extended Menu.

Leave the current feature in the Short/Extended Menu. Select the option you want by pressing the Okey. The settings for some menu features cannot be changed.

Safety

IMPORTANT

For the efficient and safe operation of your wireless handheld portable telephone, observe these guidelines.

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.

European and International agencies have set standards and recommendations for the protection of public exposure to RF electromagnetic energy.

International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996

Verband Deutscher Elektringenieure (VDE) DIN-0848

Directives of the European Community, Directorate General V in Matters of Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Energy

National Radiological Protection Board of the United Kingdom, GS 11, 1988

American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE.C95.1-1992

National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP). Report 86

Department of Health and Welfare Canada. Safety Code 6

These standards are based on extensive scientific review. For example, over 120 scientists, engineers and physicians from universities, government health agencies and industry reviewed the available body of research to develop the updated ANSI Standard.

The design of your phone complies with these standards when used normally.

Antenna Care

Use only the supplied or approved replacement antenna. Unauthorised antennas, modifications or attachments could damage the phone and may violate FCC regulations.

Phone Operation

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 (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.

st211_en.bk : safety.fm5 Page 10 Monday, August 23, 1999 10:24 AM

Batteries

!All batteries can cause property damage, injury or burns if a conductive material such as jewellery, 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. 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:

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 minimise the potential for interference.

If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn your phone OFF immediately.

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 they are 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.

st211_en.bk : safety.fm5 Page 11 Monday, August 23, 1999 10:24 AM

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 using your phone while in the air. Switch OFF your phone before boarding an aircraft.

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 and do not remove the battery when 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, i.e. 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.

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 Battery

Charging a New Battery

New batteries are supplied in a totally uncharged state.

To ensure maximum battery performance, a new battery (or battery that has not been used for several months) should be charged for at least 14 hours before use.

AA new battery will require several full charge/discharge cycles in order to achieve its optimum performance.

AA new battery, or a battery that has not been used for several months, may cause a premature fully charged indication. Ignore this indication and let the battery charge for several more hours, remove and re-insert the battery into the charger, and charge for an additional 14 hours.

Important Battery Information

!Always treat your batteries with care. See ‘Batteries’, at the beginning of this manual.

!Never leave your battery in extremely high temperatures (over 60°C), for example behind glass in very hot, direct sunlight.

!Only Motorola Original Accessory batteries can be charged in the phone or the optional desktop charger. This is to protect you and your phone from the risks of incorrect charging.

ADo not use lithium ion batteries at extremely low temperatures as the maximum standby/talk time will not be available when cold.

Battery Indicators

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 battery. The following message will appear on the display, as the condition occurs:

Low Battery

The battery charge is low. The battery should

 

be recharged.

Insert

No battery fitted; external power connected

Battery

 

Invalid

This message is accompanied by a single beep.

Battery

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 recognise the battery is that

 

the battery you have purchased is not a

 

Motorola original battery and therefore does

 

not have the communications technology built

 

into it. All Motorola original batteries include

 

this communications technology.

 

It is recommended that you use only Motorola

 

original batteries, chargers and other

 

accessories.

Battery Meter Indicators

The battery meter displays different messages depending on the batteries attached, and whether or not there is an external power source. The battery meter is found in the Call Related Features part of the Options Menu.

Charging

The battery is being charged.

Fast Charge

Fast charging is complete.

Your SIM Card

Your SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card was supplied by your Cellular 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 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

1Switch off your phone by pressing and holding the Skey, remove the battery cover and the battery.

2Slide the SIM holder towards the right and lift up the left side of the holder.

3Remove the SIM card from the holder if necessary.

6Replace the battery and battery cover.

If the SIM card is inserted the wrong way round, or damaged, the Check Card message may be displayed. Remove the SIM card, check that it is the right way round and then re-insert it into the phone.

If either of the Bad Card See Supplier or Blocked See Supplier messages are displayed, then you will need to contact your Cellular Service Provider.

Making a Phone Call

To make a phone call, your phone must be switched on and unlocked.

It will not be possible to make a phone call unless you are in an area where there is a GSM900 or GSM1800 service. When a 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.

Redialling the last number called.

One-touch dialling a Phone Book entry*.

Dialling a Phone Book entry*.

Calling an embedded number in a message.

Using the Smart button (=).

A*Your phone contains a 'phone book' that can be used to store names and telephone numbers. See ‘What is the Phone Book?’ for further details.

The simplest method of making a phone call is to enter the number using the digit keys then press O.

AIf you make a mistake, press and release the Ckey to remove the last digit. Holding the Ckey down will remove the entire number.

Your phone will then attempt to make the phone call. The display will show Calling to show the call attempt is being made. If the call is not answered, pressing O, or closing the flip (models with flip only), at this point will end the attempt.

When the phone call is answered, the display will change to Connected for a few seconds, followed by End Call?.

To end your call press O, or close the phone.

Automatic Redial

If your call attempt does not succeed, the message Redial? will be displayed for five seconds. Pressing Oat this point will automatically redial the phone number.

When the call is answered, you will hear a short ring tone.

The maximum number of redial attempts is set by your Cellular Service Provider. If the phone call cannot be connected within this maximum, the message Redial Failed will be shown.

Redialling the Last Number Called

i When in standby mode, press OO.

Alternatively, you can retrieve the last number dialled using the ‘Last Ten Calls’ feature in the Phone Book menu.

jOne-Touch Dialling Phone Book Numbers

To quickly retrieve and dial a number stored in the first nine locations of your Phone Book1, press and hold the appropriate digit key. For example, pressing and holding 2will dial the phone number stored in location 2 of your Phone Book.

AYou do not need to press Oto call the number.

jDialling Phone Book Numbers

i Press the Smart button (=) and use the volume buttons to scroll to the stored number, or press the appropriate digit key to skip to a particular letter. To make the call, either hold down =for 1.5 seconds or press O.

Alternatively, enter the phone book location number followed by >O.

Calling an Embedded Number in a Message

Details on how to call a number embedded in a message are given in the Messages Menu section.

1.The Phone Book entries that you are able to access will depend on the One-Touch Dial Setting option in the Phone Book menu.

International Phone Calls

To make an international phone call press and hold the 0key. After a couple of seconds the international dialling prefix + will appear in the display, this allows you to call from any country without knowing the local international access code.

Now enter the country code, followed by the phone number. The country code follows the conventional format, 49 for Germany, 44 for the UK, 46 for Sweden, etc.

Just like a conventional international call, remove the leading '0' of the area code when you dial.

Inserting Pauses Into Phone Numbers

To obtain a three second 'pause' character in a phone number, press and hold the <key for a couple of seconds, the pause symbol Ü will appear.

The pause character produces a three second delay whenever it is used. However, the first pause character in a phone number is a special case, it will not begin its delay until the call is answered.

Pause - A Working Example.

If, for example, you have a tone-based voicemail system on 555-6911, with a mailbox number 1066 and password 2001. 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 three seconds before the tones for 1066 are sent to select the mailbox.

There will be a second pause of three seconds before the tones for 2001 are sent as the password.
