1. Safety At A Glance
Read these simple guidelines before using your
phone. Failure to comply with these guidelines may
be dangerous or illegal.
For more detailed safety information, see
For Your Safety on page 64.
Road Safety Comes First
Don't use a hand-held phone while dri ving; park the
vehicle first.
Switch Off In Hospitals
Switch off your phone when near medical equipment. Follow any regulations or rules in force.
Switch Off On Aircraft
Mobile phones can cause interference. Using them
on aircraft is illegal.
Switch Off Wh en Refueling
Do not use your phone at a refueling point. Do not
use near fuels or chemicals.
Switch Off Near Blasting
Do not use your phone where a blasting operation
is in progress. Observe restrictions, and follow any
regulations or rules in force.
Use Sensibly
Use only in the normal position (to ear). Avoid unnecessary contact with the antenna when phone is
on.
Interference
All mobile phones may be subject to radio interference, which may affect the performance of your
phone. Therefore, you should never rely solely upon
any cellular phone for essential communications
(e.g., medical emergencies).
Qualified Service
Only qualified service personnel may install or repair
cellular phone equipment. Use only approved accessories and batteries.
1
Using this Owner’s Manual
The wireless phone described in this manual is approved
for use in AMPS/CDMA networks.
A number of functions included in this manual are called
Network Services. They are special services provided by
cellular service providers. Before you can take advantage
of any of these Network Services, you must subscribe to
the service(s) you require from your home service provider.
You can then activate these functions as described in this
manual.
The manual activation commands for various network services are not presented in this manual (e.g. using
∗ and #
characters for activating or deactivating services). Nevertheless, your phone is capable of handling commands
given in that form. For these commands please consult
with your service provider.
FCC/Industry Cana da No t ic e
Your phone may cause TV or radio interference (e.g. when
using a telephone in close proximity to receiving equipment). The FCC/Industry Canada can require you to stop
using your telephone if such interference cannot be eliminated. If you require assistance, contact your local service
facility.
THIS DEVICE COMPLIES WITH PART 15 OF THE FCC
RULES. OPERATION IS SUBJECT TO THE CONDITION
THAT THIS DEVICE DOES NOT CAU SE HARMFUL
INTERFERENCE.

2. Your Phone’s Battery
When you first opened the box for your phone, you should
have found at least one battery and charger, one transceiver, and this user guide. For detailed information on
these items, see Accessories on page 58.
To instal l y our battery
Simply (1) place the battery in the grooves on the back of
your phone. Then (2) slide the battery upward until it clicks.
To remove your ba tt er y
First switch off your phone. Then (1) press the button on
top of your battery, (2) slide the battery back, and (3) lift
away from your phone.
3
New batteries must be charged for
at least 24 hours before initial use,
with your phone off. A new batterys
full performance is achieved only
after two or three complete charge
and discharge cycles!
IMPORTANT:
Use only batteries approved by the phone
manufacturer and recharge your battery only with the
chargers approved by the manufacturer. See Important
battery information on page 6.
When should you charge?
With only a couple of minutes of talk
time remaining, your phone will warn
you with a tone and
%$77(5< /2: will
appear on your display.
Once all the power has been drained
from your battery, youll hear three beeps with the mes-
5(&+$5*( %$77(5< on your display. At this point,
sage
your phone will switch itself off.
To charge or recha rg e y ou r b at te ry
You can charge your
phone while it is on or
off. Simply connect
the lead from the
charger to the bottom
of
phone or
your
place it on a charging
stand. Then connect
the charger to a standard 120V AC outlet.
When the battery begins charging,
the battery strength indicator on the
right side of the display will scroll
and your phone will beep once.
4
When is charging complete?
To allow the battery to completely charge, wait
for the charge indicators to stop scrolling. At this
point, your phone is considered fully charged.
However, a slight increase in charge may occur
if the phone is left connected to the charger, this
is called trickle charge.
Charging times depend on which type of battery and
charger is used. For approximate charging and operating
times, see Accessories on page 58.
When charging is completed, disconnect the charger from
the AC outlet and from your phone.
Note: When you disconnect the power cord of any accessory, grasp and pull the plug, not the cord.
Can you make calls while char g ing ?
Yes, you can. But your battery will not charge while a call
is in progress. Charging will resume when you end the call.
What if charging fails ?
If your phone displays 127 &+$5*,1*, charging is suspended. Make sure the battery is connected to an
approved charging device and that the battery is at room
temperature. Extreme temperatures, hot or cold, can affect your batterys performance and prevent charging.
If charging still fails, disconnect the charger from your
phone. Then reconnect the charger to
phone and re-
your
try. If you still experience charging problems, contact your
dealer and, if necessary, bring your phone in to have it serviced. Also remember to bring in your battery and charger.
To discharge your battery
There are two ways to properly discharge a battery. You
can leave your phone on while your battery drains, finally
turning itself off. Or you can use the discharge facility of
any approved accessory equipped with this feature.
5
Your battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of
times but it will eventually wear out. When the operating
time is noticeably shorter than normal, and reconditioning
fails to extend its life, its time to buy a new battery.
Important battery information
For good operation times, discharge the battery from time
to time by leaving your phone switched on until it turns itself off or by using the battery discharge facility of any
approved accessory available for your phone. Do not attempt to discharge the battery by any other means.
When a charger is not in use, disconnect it from the power
source. Do not leave the battery connected to a charger
for longer than a week, since overcharging may shorten its
life.
If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself
over time at room temperature.
When the battery is not in use, store it uncharged in a cool,
dark and dry place.
Temperature extremes will affect the ability of your battery
to charge: it may require cooling or warming first.
Do not short circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting
can occur when a metallic object (coin, clip, or pen) causes
direct connection of the + and - terminals of the battery
(metal strips on the back of the battery), for example, when
you carry a spare battery in your pocket or purse. Short
circuiting the terminal may damage the battery or the connecting object.
Use the battery only for its intended purpose. Never use
any charger or battery that is damaged or worn out.
Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a closed
car in summer or winter conditions, will reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try to keep the battery
between 59°F and 77°F (15°C and 25°C). A phone with a
hot or cold battery may temporarily not work, even when
the battery is fully charged. NiMH battery performance is
particularly limited in temperatures below 14°F (-10°C).
6
The battery is a sealed unit with no serviceable parts. Dont
attempt to open the case.
Dont dispose of a battery in a fire! Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local regulations. Recycle!

whenever possible maintains the connection to the network with less power.

3. Signal Strength
Your phone operates on radio waves, and the quality of radio reception depends entirely on the strength of the radio
signal in your area.
Because the radio coverage is maintained by a wireless
network, the quality of calls on a wireless phone depends
on the strength of the wireless radio signal.
The stronger the radio signal, the better the call
quality. A strong signal is indicated by the signal
indicators on the left side of your phones display, which scroll as the strength of the signal
increases and decreases.
Increasing your phones signal may be easy. Try
moving your phone slightly, or move towards a
window if youre calling from inside a building.

Unavailable service
When network service is unavailable
from your service provider or its affiliates, emergency calls may be possible
via other networks to their designated
emergency number only (e.g. 911 or
some other official emergency
number).
Your phones display will remain empty, but a

4. The Basics
Your phone has many different features, some more advanced than others. This chapter highlights some very
basic features which you are most likely to use every day.
Cool Features
Did you know that you can lock the keys on your phone to
prevent accidental key presses and phone calls? Or that
your phone can display a reminder message whenever
you turn it on? You can also stop your phone from ringing
without even answering the call. These are called Cool
Features.
These are just some of the many Cool Features youll find
in your phone. Look for the icon throughout this owners manual to see how you can use these Cool Features.
To Switch Your Phone On
1) Press and hold ð for about three seconds
2) If you want to make a call, fully extend the
