Introducing your new MOTOROLA RAZR V, the slim,
fast, and intelligent phone. It has tons of advanced
features for everything you want to do—web browsing,
multimedia, and more.
• A blistering fast dual-core 1.2 GHz processor lets your
phone download web pages in under a second, and
makes multi-tasking a snap.
• Capture life's moments in full 1080p HD video with
your 8MP camera. Your phone’s 4.3" ColorBoost™
display makes video playback crisper and more vivid
than ever before.
Note: Certain apps and features may not be available in
all countries.
Caution: Before assembling, charging, or using your
phone for the first time, please read the important
safety, regulatory and legal information provided with
your product.
This product meets the applicable limit for
exposure to radio waves (known as SAR) of
2.0 W/kg (ICNIRP). The limits and guidelines
include a substantial safety margin designed to assure
the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The highest SAR values measured for this device are
listed in the regulatory information packaged with your
product.
Note: When using the product while worn on your body,
either use an approved accessory such as a holster or
maintain a distance of 2.5 cm (1 inch) from the body to
ensure compliance with SAR requirements. Note that
the product may be transmitting even if you are not
making a phone call.

page 12.
Note: When installing an app, make sure you read the
alerts that tell you what information the app will access.
If you don’t want the app to have access to this
information, cancel the installation.
12 Apps & updates
Choose carefully
Apps are great. There's something for everyone. Play,
communicate, work, or have fun. But remember, choose
your apps carefully. Here are a few tips:
• To help prevent spyware, phishing, or viruses from
affecting your phone or privacy, use apps from trusted
sites, like Play Store.
• In Play Store, check the apps’ ratings and
comments before installing.
• If you doubt the safety of an app, don't install it.
• Like all apps, downloaded apps will use up memory,
data, battery, and processing power—some more
than others. For example, a simple battery level
widget will use less than a streaming music player
app. After installing an app, if you're not happy with
how much memory, data, battery or processing
power it's using, uninstall it. You can always install it
again later.
• Just like web browsing, you may want to monitor
childrens’ access to apps to help prevent exposure to
inappropriate content.
• Certain apps may not provide completely accurate
information. Take care, especially when it comes to
personal health.
Update my phone
You can check, download, and install phone software
updates using your phone, or using your computer:
• Using your phone:
You may get an automatic notification of an available
update on your phone. Simply follow the instructions
to download and install.
To manually check for updates, touch
Apps > Settings > About phone > System updates.
Your phone downloads any updates over your mobile
network. Remember, these updates can be quite
large (25MB or more) and may not be available in all
countries. If you don’t have an unlimited data plan, or
mobile network updates are not available in your
country, you can update using a computer.
• Using your computer:
On your computer, go to www.motorola.com/myrazrv
and check the “Software” links. If an update is
available, follow the installation instructions.
