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. Unauthorized 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 unauthorized antennas may result in non-compliance with the local regulatory requirements in your country.

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 centimeters) 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 centimeters) 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.

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 centimeters) be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker.

Persons with pacemakers should:

•

ALWAYS keep the phone more than 6 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.

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.

Responsible driving best practices may be found at the Motorola website:

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 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. Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often but not always 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 electronic devices.” Obey all signs and instructions.

Batteries

Batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily injur y such as burns if a conductive material such as jewelry, 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 batter y, particularly when placing it inside a pocket, purse, or other container with metal objects.

and chargers.

Your battery or phone may contain symbols, defined as follows:

Symbol Definition

Important safety information will follow.

Your battery or phone should not be disposed of in a fire.

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.

Use only Motorola original batteries

Seizures/Blackouts

Some people may be susceptible to epileptic seizures or blackouts when exposed to blinking lights, such as when watching television 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 blinking-lights 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:

Optional Accessories

This label identifies a feature that requires an optional Motorola Original™ accessory.

Getting Started

Installing the SIM Card

Your Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card contains your phone number, service details, and phonebook/ message information.

Caution:

exposing your SIM card to static electricity, water, or dirt.

Getting Started

Do not bend or scratch your SIM card. Avoid

Action

Press the latch to remove the battery from your phone, if necessary.

Latch

With your phone facing down, fit the SIM card into the slot, with the metal contacts facing down and the beveled corner pointed at the notch of the slot (as shown).

Note:

Turn off your phone every time when you

remove/insert the SIM card.

Installing the Battery

You must install and charge the battery to use your phone.

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.

Action

Remove the battery from the plastic case.

Insert the battery with 2 tabs wedged into the battery slots.

Tab s

Latch the other end of battery so that it clicks into place.

Getting Started

Charging the Battery

New batteries are partially charged. Before using your phone, charge the battery as described below. Some batteries perform best after several full charge/ discharge cycles.

Action

With your phone facing up, plug in the travel charger, with the LED facing up.

Getting Started

Plug the other end into the appropriate electrical outlet. The LED turns green when the battery is being charged.

When done charging, unplug the charger from the outlet, and press the release tabs to remove the charger from your phone.

When you charge the battery, the battery power level indicator in the external and internal displays shows how much of the charging process is complete. At least 1 segment of the battery power level indicator must be visible to ensure full phone functionality while charging.

When battery power is low, your phone will play the warning tones to warn you (see page 105). Charge the battery immediately.

If battery power runs out, your phone turns off.

Battery Use

To maximize 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.

•

Charging begins when the LED on the connector is lit. Batteries stored for a long time may require 10-20 minutes to charge before the display is turned on.

•

Battery life would be shorter than normal if users play games or use phones in low signal strength areas.

•

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.

•

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.

•

Over 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 buy a new battery.

Getting Started

The rechargeable batteries that power this phone must be disposed of properly and may need to
