For the QWERTY keyboard, there are tactile nibs placed on
the
F
key and the
L
key. Although typical implementation of
these nibs is on the
F
key and the
J
key, this unique device
has the
L
key double as the 5 key when in phone mode. Thus,
while the device is opened in phone mode the numeric
keypad can be easily navigated using the 5 key nib, and in
QWERTY messaging mode the spacing of the nibs on the
F
key and the
L
key is more symmetric with the geometry of the
device.

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’s 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.
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
14
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 antennas, 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
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.
15
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.
16
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 handsfree 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 in the “Wireless Phone
Safety Tips” at the end of this manual and at the Motorola website:
www.Motorola.com/callsmart.
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. 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: T
he 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.
17
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 injury 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 battery, particularly when placing it inside a pocket, purse, or
other container with metal objects.
Use only Motorola original batteries
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
afire.
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.
Your phone contains an internal lithium ion battery.
18
Seizures/Blackouts
Some people may be susceptible to epileptic seizures or blackouts when
exposed to flashing 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 flashing-lights feature
on your phone. (The flashing-light feature is not available on all products.)
Parents should monitor their children's use of video game or other
features that incorporate flashing 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:
Do not play or use a flashing-lights feature if you are tired or need
sleep.
Take a minimum of a 15-minute break hourly.
Play in a room in which all lights are on.
Play at the farthest distance possible from the screen.
Repetitive Motion Injuries
When you play games on your phone, you may experience occasional
discomfort in your hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of your
body. Follow these instructions to avoid problems such as tendonitis,
carpal tunnel syndrome, or other musculoskeletal disorders:
Take a minimum 15-minute break every hour of game playing.
If your hands, wrists, or arms become tired or sore while playing,
stop and rest for several hours before playing again.
19
If you continue to have sore hands, wrists, or arms during or after
play, stop playing and see a doctor.

Battery Use
Battery performance depends on many factors, including
your wireless carrier’s network configuration; signal
strength; the temperature at which you operate your
device; the features and/or settings you select and use;
items attached to the device’s accessory connector port;
and your voice, data, and other application usage patterns.
Caution:
To prevent injuries or burns, do not allow metal
objects to contact or short-circuit the battery terminals.
To maximize your battery’s performance:
Always use Motorola Original batteries and battery
chargers. The device warranty does not cover
damage caused from using non-Motorola batteries
and/or battery chargers.

When you release it, it pops
up.
3
Remove the card and close
the cover.
Action
27
Getting Started
New batteries or batteries that have been stored for a
long time may require a longer charge time.
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 device 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.
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 purchase a new battery.
The rechargeable batteries that power this device
must be disposed of properly and may need to be
recycled. Refer to your battery’s label for battery
type. Contact your local recycling center for proper
disposal methods.
Warning:
Never dispose of batteries in a fire because they
may explode.

Installing ActiveSync®
To synchronize your device with your PC, you must install
ActiveSync on your PC from the Motorola MPx Companion
CD.

Once ActiveSync is installed on your PC, you will be
prompted to connect and create a partnership with your
device by using a cable, cradle, or infrared connection.
During this partnership you can decide exactly which types
123
Getting More Out of Your Phone
of information you want to synchronize with your PC and/or
a server.
Your first synchronization will

Getting More Out of Your Phone
synchronization process. During synchronization, the
following events occur:
Messages are copied from the Outlook Inbox folder on
your desktop computer, or from a Microsof
Exchange Server, to the
Inbox
folder on your device.
By default, when synchronizing
Inbox
information with
your desktop computer, you will receive only
messages from the last 3 days and the first 500
bytes of each new message. You can also choose
to download file attachments.
The messages on your device and on your
desktop computer are linked. When you delete a
message your device, it is deleted from your desktop
computer the next time you synchronize, and vice
versa.
Messages in subfolders in other e-mail folders in
Outlook
are synchronized only if the folders have been
selected for synchronization in the
Inbox
on your
device.

Tip:

Bluetooth technology is a short-range wireless
communications technology. Devices with Bluetooth
capabilities can exchange information over a distance of
about 10 meters (30 feet) without requiring a physical
connection.
Unlike infrared, you don’t need to line up the devices to
beam information with Bluetooth. The devices only need to
be within a range of about 10 meters. You can even beam
information to a device in a different room, as long as it's
within range. The software included with your Motorola
MPx allows you to use Bluetooth in the following ways:
Beam information, such as files, appointments, tasks,
and contact cards, between devices that have
Bluetooth capabilities. For example, if you and a co-
worker each have a device with Bluetooth, you can
beam items between your devices, such as files,
contact cards, appointments, tasks, and so forth.
Create a dial-up modem connection between your
device and a Bluetooth phone. You can then use the
Bluetooth phone as a modem.

Discover-
able:
The Bluetooth radio is turned on, and all
of the other Bluetooth devices within
range (about 10 meters) can detect your
device and attempt to beam information to
it, establish a bond, or use a Bluetooth
service. In this mode, other devices can
detect your device whether or not a bond
has been created; however, in order to
receive a beam from another device, you
must accept it on your device.
Off:
The Bluetooth radio is turned off. In this
mode, you can neither send nor receive
information by using Bluetooth. You might
want to turn the radio off at times in order
to conserve battery power, or in situations
where radio use is prohibited, for example
on airplanes and in hospitals.

Bonds
A
bond
is a relationship that you create between your
device and another Bluetooth device in order to exchange
information in a secure manner. Creating a bond involves
entering the same personal identification number (PIN) on
the two devices you want to bond. You need only create a
bond once between two devices. Once a bond is created,
the devices recognize the bond and are able to exchange
information without your entering a PIN again.
Creating a Bond
You can create a bond between your device and another
device that has Bluetooth. Once you do this, Bluetooth
doesn’t need to be in discoverable mode in order for you to
beam information between the two devices; the Bluetooth
radio only needs to be turned on.

Specific Absorption Rate Data
Warning: 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 you body.
The model phone meets the government’s requirements for
exposure to radio waves.
Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF)
energy. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish
permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines
are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific
organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific
studies. The guidelines include a substantial safety margin designed to
assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for mobile phones employs a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. Under the guidelines for
your phone model, the SAR limit is 1.6 W/kg.
1
Tests for SAR are
conducted using standard operating positions with the phone transmitting
at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although
the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR
of the phone while operating can be well below the maximum value. This
is because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so
as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the
closer you are to a base station, the lower the power output of the phone.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it is tested to
confirm compliance with the guidelines. The tests are performed in
positions that conform to a uniform testing methodology determined by an
expert standards body. The highest SAR value for this model phone when
tested for use at the ear is ____ W/kg.
2
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones
and at various positions, they all meet the governmental requirements for
198
safe exposure. Please note that improvements to this product model
could cause differences in the SAR value for later products; in all cases,
products are designed to be within the guidelines.
1. The SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kilogram
(W/kg) averaged over one gram of body tissue. The standard incorporates a
substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to
account for any variations in measurements.
2. Additional related information includes the Motorola testing protocol,
assessment procedure, and measurement uncertainty range for this product.
