Driving Safety Tips
NOTE: For safety and legal reasons (in many countries), do not use
your phone while driving.
Check and follow the local laws regarding the use of mobile
phones while driving.
Safety — Your most important call. The Wireless Industry reminds you to use
your phone safely when driving.
1. Get to know your wireless phone and its features such as speed dial
and redial. Carefully read your instruction manual and learn to take
advantage of valuable features most phones offer, including automatic
redial and memory. Also, work to memorize the phone keypad so you can
use the speed dial function without taking your attention off the road.
2. When available, use a hands free device. A number of hands free
wireless phone accessories are readily available today. Whether you
choose an installed mounted device for your wireless phone or a speaker
phone accessory, take advantage of these devices if available to you.
3
90
3. Position your wireless phone within easy reach. Make sure you place
your wireless phone within easy reach and where you can grab it without
removing your eyes from the road. If you get an incoming call at an
inconvenient time, if possible, let your voice mail answer it for you.
4. Suspend conversations during hazardous driving conditions or
situations. 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 and ice can be hazardous, but so is heavy
traffic. As a driver, your first responsibility is to pay attention to the road.
5. Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. If you are
reading an address book or business card or writing a “to do” list while
driving a car, then you are not watching where you are going. It's common
sense. Don't get caught in a dangerous situation because you are reading
or writing and not paying attention to the road or nearby vehicles.
6. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic. If possible, place calls when you
are not moving or before pulling into traffic. Try to plan your calls
before you begin your trip or attempt to coincide your calls with times
you may be stopped at a stop sign, red light or otherwise stationary. But if
you need to dial while driving, follow this simple tip — 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. Stressful or emotional conversations and driving do not mix
— they are distracting and even dangerous when you are behind the
wheel of a car. Make people you are talking with aware you are driving
and if necessary, suspend conversations which have the potential to divert
your attention from the road.
8. Use your wireless phone to call for help. Your wireless phone is one of
the greatest tools you can own to protect yourself and your family in
dangerous situations — with your phone at your side, help is only three
numbers away. Dial 9-1-1 or other local emergency number in the case of
fire, traffic accident, road hazard or medical emergencies. Remember, it is
a free call on your wireless phone!
9. Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. Your wireless
phone provides you a perfect opportunity to be a “Good Samaritan” in
your community. 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.
nextel.com
4
10. Call roadside assistance or a special wireless nonemergency assistance number when necessary.
Certain situations you encounter while driving may
require attention but are not urgent enough to merit a
call for emergency services. But you still can use your
wireless phone to lend a hand. If you see a brokendown vehicle posing no serious hazard, a broken
traffic signal, a minor traffic accident where no one
appears to be injured or a vehicle you know to be
stolen, call roadside assistance or other special nonemergency wireless numbers.

SIM Card
SIM Card
Your phone comes with a built-in level of security protection through the use of
the SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card. The SIM card stores all your
Phonebook information and your Nextel account identification information.
Since this information is stored on the SIM card, not in your phone itself, you
can remove the information by removing the SIM card.
The SIM card is located in the SIM card holder on the back of the phone,
underneath the battery. You can verify the SIM card is in place by removing the
battery and viewing the SIM card through the SIM card cover.
See “Inserting/Removing the SIM Card” on page 22 for information on locating
the SIM card. If there is no SIM card in your phone, notify your Nextel
Authorized Representative.
NOTE: Except for making emergency calls, your phone will not
function without the SIM card.
SIM Card Personal Identification Number (PIN)
To prevent unauthorized use of your account, you can protect your SIM card by
enabling the SIM PIN security feature. With the SIM PIN enabled, you must
enter your PIN each time the phone is powered on. You can change or disable
your PIN if desired.
NOTE: It is recommended that you enable the SIM PIN security feature
to prevent fraudulent use of the SIM card.
Enabling/Disabling the PIN Security Feature
When the PIN security feature is enabled, you are prompted to enter your PIN
each time you turn on your phone. Until a valid PIN is entered, you can use the
phone only to make emergency calls.
After the PIN is accepted, the phone registers on the network and the idle screen
displays.
When the PIN security feature is disabled, the phone can be used without
entering a PIN.
