Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use 1
Your terminal is a radio transmitter and receiver. When
the terminal is turned on, it receives and transmits radio
frequency (RF) energy. Depending on the type of termi-
nal you have bought, it operates in different frequency
ranges and employs commonly used modulation tech-
niques. The system that handles your call when you are
using your terminal controls the power level at which
your terminal transmits.
Safety
Exposure to Radio Frequency Signals
Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low
power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it
receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.
In August, 1996, the Federal Communications Com-
mission (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with
safety levels for handheld wireless phones. Those guide-
lines are consistent with the safety standards previously
set by both US and international standards bodies:
ANSI C95.1 (1992)*
NCRP Report 86 (1986)*
ICNIRP (1996)*
Those standards were based on comprehensive and peri-
odic evaluations of the relevant scientific literature. For
example, over 120 scientists, engineers, and physicians
from universities, government health agencies, and
industry reviewed the available body of research to
develop the ANSI Standard (C95.1).
The design of your phone complies with the FCC guide-
lines (and those standards).
* American National Standards Institute: National Coun-
cil on Radiation Protection and Measurements; Interna-
tional Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection.
Antenna Care Use only the supplied or an approved replacement
antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or
attachments could damage the phone and may violate
FCC regulations.
Accessories Use only the supplied belt clip or approved Ericsson
accessory. Use of unauthorized accessories may violate
FCC regulations and should be avoided.
Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
2Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
Phone Operation
NORMAL POSITION: Hold the phone as you would
any other telephone with the antenna pointed up and
over your shoulder.
TIPS ON EFFICIENT OPERATION: For your phone
to operate most efficiently:
Extend your antenna fully (where applicable).
Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when the
phone is in use. Contact with the antenna affects
call quality and may cause the phone to operate at a
higher power level than otherwise needed.
Driving Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless
telephones in the areas where you drive. Always obey
them. Also, if using your phone while driving, please:
Give full attention to driving - driving safely is your
first responsibility.
Use handsfree operation, if available.
Pull off the road and park before making or answer-
ing a call if driving conditions so require.
In addition, Ericsson suggests the following safe driving
tips if you are using your phone while driving:
Get to know your wireless phone and its features
such as speed dial and redial.
Position your wireless phone
within easy reach.
Suspend conversations during
hazardous driving conditions or
situations.
Do not take notes or look up
phone numbers while driving.
Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place
calls when you are not moving or before pulling
into traffic.
Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversa-
tions that may be distracting.
Use your wireless phone to call for help.
Use your wireless phone to help others in emergen-
cies.
Call roadside assistance or a special wireless non-
emergency assistance number when necessary.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF
signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not
be shielded against RF signals from your wireless phone.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recom-
mends that a minimum separation of six (6”) inches be
maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a
pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pace-
maker. These recommendations are consistent with the
Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use 3
independent research by and recommendations of Wire-
less Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six
inches from their pacemaker when the phone is
turned ON.
Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to mini-
mize the potential for interference.
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is
taking place, turn your phone OFF immediately.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some
hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may
want to consult your service provider (or call the cus-
tomer service line 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 ade-
quately shielded from external RF energy. Your physi-
cian may be able to assist you in obtaining this
information.
Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any
regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so.
Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equip-
ment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inade-
quately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles.
Check with the manufacturer or its representative
regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the man-
ufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your
vehicle.
Posted Facilities
Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted
notices so require.
Aircraft FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while in the
air. Switch OFF your phone before boarding an aircraft.
Blasting Areas To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your
phone OFF when in a “blasting area” or in areas posted:
“Turn off two-way radio.” Obey all signs and instruc-
tions.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn your phone OFF when in any area with a poten-
tially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and
instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explo-
sion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often
but not always clearly marked. They include fueling
areas such as gasoline stations; below deck on boats; fuel
4Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
or chemical transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using
liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane);
areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such
as grain, dust, or metal powders; and any other area
where you would normally be advised to turn off your
vehicle engine.
For Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag
An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT place
objects, including both installed or portable wireless
equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag
deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is
improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious
bodily injury could result.
Product Care and Operation
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: 1)
This device may not cause harmful interference, and 2)
This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired opera-
tion.
Please observe Ericsson’s suggestions for safe and effi-
cient product operation. Although the terminal is resis-
tant to rain and running water, do not unnecessarily
subject it to water. If you need to wash your terminal, it
is recommended that you do it gently in cold water
under a water tap. Make sure that your battery is prop-
erly connected, the antenna is properly screwed on and
that all accessories are removed before you wash your
terminal.
Ericsson cannot guarantee that the terminal is water
resistant if the antenna is not properly connected.
Do not use any detergent or washing powder.
Do not immerse the product in water.
Do not expose your product to liquids other than
water.
Do not expose your product to extreme tempera-
tures.
Only Ericsson original accessories are recom-
mended. Failure to use them may result in loss of
performance or product damage, and will void the
warranty.
Do not attempt to disassemble the product. Doing
so will void the warranty. This product does not
contain consumer serviceable components. Service
should be performed by Authorized Service Center
only.
The terminal will not withstand dust, moisture or
rain if the battery and/or the antenna are not prop-
erly connected.
Removal of the battery and antennas should be
done under clean and dry conditions. Make sure
that no moisture gets into the terminal.
Do not allow children to play with your phone.
They could hurt themselves or others, or could acci-
dentally damage the phone. Your phone may con-

tain small parts that could be detached and create a
choking hazard.
Do not allow objects to fall on, or liquids to spill on
the products.
Hold the phone as you would any other telephone,
while in Phone Mode. While speaking directly into
the mouthpiece, angle the antenna in a direction up
and over your shoulder. If the antenna is extend-
able/retractable, it should be extended during a call.
Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid, or
explosives in the compartment of your vehicle that
contains your terminal and accessories.
Place the phone in a secure location when in a vehi-
cle to prevent interference with vehicle operation
and reduce the likelihood of injury in the case of a
vehicle accident.
For safe use, keep the phone a minimum of two
inches (5cm) from your face while in radio or
speakerphone mode.
Antenna Care Do not continue to twist the antenna after it has
been inserted. Excess twisting will damage the
antenna.
Be cautious if removing your antenna. A detached
antenna may be a choking hazard for children.
Handle a detached antenna with care since it has a
sharp metallic end that could scratch, cut, or punc-
ture your skin or eyes.
Do not bend the antenna since it is sensitive and
this will reduce its performance.
Do not use the terminal with a damaged antenna.
Take your terminal to a qualified service center for
repair.
Do not use an antenna designed for any other type
of telephone than the one you have bought. Unau-
thorized antennas, modifications, or attachments
could damage the terminal and may violate the
appropriate regulations and will void the warranty.
hold the antenna when the phone is in use.
Holding the antenna affects call quality, may cause
the phone to operate at a higher power level than
needed and shortens talk and standby times.
Power Supply Connect AC (Power supply) only to designated
power sources as marked on the product.
Make sure the AC (Power supply) is dry and clean
before you plug it in.
:$51,1*
HEARING DAMAGE may occur if the phone is
placed closer than 3 inches (7.62 cm) to your ear
while it is in Radio Mode. Do not hold the phone
to your ear when using Radio Mode.
6Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
To reduce the risk of damage to the electric cord,
remove it from the outlet by holding onto the AC
adapter rather than the cord.
Make sure the cord is located so that it will not be
stepped on, tripped over or otherwise subjected to
damage or stress.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, unplug the unit
from any power source before attempting any clean-
ing, then use a soft, damp cloth.
DANGER - Never alter the AC cord or plug. If the
plug will not fit into the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician. Improper con-
nection can result in risk of electric shock.
Battery Information
New Batteries
The battery packaged with your phone is not fully
charged. For maximum battery capacity, use your
charger to condition the battery.
Recycling Your Battery
Your phone manufacturer is a member of the Recharge-
able Battery Recycling Corporation (RBRC), a non-
profit service organization designed to assist in the recy-
cling of rechargeable batteries. Many areas require the
recycling of rechargeable batteries. In the U.S., call 1-
800-822-8837 to find out how to recycle your battery.
Outside the U.S., contact your local retailer for recycling
instructions.
Battery Use and Care
A rechargeable battery has a long service life if treated
properly. A new battery, or one that has not been used
for a long period of time, should be conditioned before
using your phone. Avoid recharging a fully-charged or
almost fully-charged battery. This can result in the mem-
ory effect, which causes the battery to charge to less than
its full capacity. If your phone shuts off due to low bat-
tery power, you should charge the battery within 24
hours for the battery to reach full capacity.
Do not leave your battery where it may be sub-
jected to extremely hot or cold temperatures. This
could reduce the battery’s capacity.
Do not let the metal contacts on the battery touch
another metal object such as keys in your pocket.
This could short-circuit and damage the battery.
Do not attempt to take a battery apart.
Do not expose a battery to open flame. This could
cause the battery to explode.
Turn your phone OFF before removing the battery.
Use only the AC/DC adapter supplied with your
battery charger. Using a different adapter could be
dangerous and will void your phone warranty.
Never charge a battery when the ambient room
temperature is below 50° F (10°C) or above 105°F
(40°C).
Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use 7
Do not allow the battery to be placed into the
mouth. Battery electrolytes may be toxic if swal-
lowed.
The terminal is water-resistant when the battery is
removed.
Do not use the terminal with a damaged battery.
Use only the designated Ericsson battery.
Do not use a battery designed for any other type of
telephone other than the one you have bought.
Unauthorized batteries could damage the terminal
and may violate the appropriate regulations and will
void the warranty and Ericsson cannot guarantee
the terminal being water resistant.
Conditioning Your Battery
To condition your battery, do the following:
1 Charge the battery until it is fully charged.
2 Disconnect the charger and leave your phone ON
until the battery is completely discharged.
A beep will sound warning you that your battery is
almost discharged. Wait until your phone turns OFF.
Your battery is now completely discharged.
Note! The time required to discharge a battery varies based on
the type of battery and the number and duration of
your calls.
3 Completely discharge the battery and fully charge it,
three times in succession to, complete the battery con-
ditioning procedure.
FDA Consumer Update
FDA has been receiving inquiries about the safety of
mobile phones, including cellular phones and PCS
phones.
The following summarizes what is known--and what
remains unknown--about whether these products can
pose a hazard to health, and what can be done to mini-
mize any potential risk. This information may be used to
respond to questions.
Why the concern?
Mobile phones emit low levels of radiofrequency energy
(i.e., radiofrequency radiation) in the microwave range
while being used. They also emit very low levels of
radiofrequency energy (RF), considered non-significant,
when in the stand-by mode. It is well known that high
levels of RF can produce biological damage through
heating effects (this is how your microwave oven is able
to cook food). However, it is not known whether, to
what extent, or through what mechanism, lower levels of
RF might cause adverse health effects as well. Although
some research has been done to address these questions,
no clear picture of the biological effects of this type of
radiation has emerged to date. Thus, the available sci-
ence does not allow us to conclude that mobile phones
are absolutely safe, or that they are unsafe. However, the
available scientific evidence does not demonstrate any
adverse health effects associated with the use of mobile
phones.
8Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
What kinds of phones are in question?
Questions have been raised about hand-held mobile
phones, the kind that have a built-in antenna that is
positioned close to the user’s head during normal tele-
phone conversation. These types of mobile phones are of
concern because of the short distance between the
phone’s antenna--the primary source of the RF--and the
person’s head. The exposure to RF from mobile phones
in which the antenna is located at greater distances from
the user (on the outside of a car, for example) is drasti-
cally lower than that from hand-held phones, because a
person’s RF exposure decreases rapidly with distance
from the source. The safety of so-called “cordless
phones,” which have a base unit connected to the tele-
phone wiring in a house and which operate at far lower
power levels and frequencies, has not been questioned.
How much evidence is there that hand-held mobile
phones might be harmful?
Briefly, there is not enough evidence to know for sure,
either way; however, research efforts are on-going. The
existing scientific evidence is conflicting and many of
the studies that have been done to date have suffered
from flaws in their research methods. Animal experi-
ments investigating the effects of RF exposures charac-
teristic of mobile phones have yielded conflicting results.
A few animal studies, however, have suggested that low
levels of RF could accelerate the development of cancer
in laboratory animals. In one study, mice genetically
altered to be predisposed to developing one type of can-
cer developed more than twice as many such cancers
when they were exposed to RF energy compared to con-
trols. There is much uncertainty among scientists about
whether results obtained from animal studies apply to
the use of mobile phones. First, it is uncertain how to
apply the results obtained in rats and mice to humans.
Second, many of the studies that showed increased
tumor development used animals that had already been
treated with cancer-causing chemicals, and other studies
exposed the animals to the RF virtually continuously--
up to 22 hours per day.
For the past five years in the United States, the mobile
phone industry has supported research into the safety of
mobile phones. This research has resulted in two find-
ings in particular that merit additional study:
1 In a hospital-based, case-control study, researchers
looked for an association between mobile phone use
and either glioma (a type of brain cancer) or acoustic
neuroma (a benign tumor of the nerve sheath). No sta-
tistically significant association was found between
mobile phone use and acoustic neuroma. There was
also no association between mobile phone use and
gliomas when all types of types of gliomas were consid-
ered together. It should be noted that the average
length of mobile phone exposure in this study was less
than three years.
When 20 types of glioma were considered separately,
however, an association was found between mobile
phone use and one rare type of glioma, neuroepithel-
liomatous tumors. It is possible with multiple compar-
isons of the same sample that this association occurred
Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use 9
by chance. Moreover, the risk did not increase with
how often the mobile phone was used, or the length of
the calls. In fact, the risk actually decreased with cumu-
lative hours of mobile phone use. Most cancer causing
agents increase risk with increased exposure. An ongo-
ing study of brain cancers by the National Cancer
Institute is expected to bear on the accuracy and
repeatability of these results.1
2 Researchers conducted a large battery of laboratory
tests to assess the effects of exposure to mobile phone
RF on genetic material. These included tests for several
kinds of abnormalities, including mutations, chromo-
somal aberrations, DNA strand breaks, and structural
changes in the genetic material of blood cells called
lymphocytes. None of the tests showed any effect of
the RF except for the micronucleus assay, which
detects structural effects on the genetic material. The
cells in this assay showed changes after exposure to
simulated cell phone radiation, but only after 24 hours
of exposure. It is possible that exposing the test cells to
radiation for this long resulted in heating. Since this
assay is known to be sensitive to heating, heat alone
could have caused the abnormalities to occur. The data
already in the literature on the response of the micro-
nucleus assay to RF are conflicting. Thus, follow-up
research is necessary.2
FDA is currently working with government, industry,
and academic groups to ensure the proper follow-up to
these industry-funded research findings. Collaboration
with the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Asso-
ciation (CTIA) in particular is expected to lead to
FDA providing research recommendations and scien-
tific oversight of new CTIA-funded research based on
such recommendations.
Two other studies of interest have been reported recently
in the literature:
1 Two groups of 18 people were exposed to simulated
mobile phone signals under laboratory conditions
while they performed cognitive function tests. There
were no changes in the subjects’ ability to recall words,
numbers, or pictures, or in their spatial memory, but
they were able to make choices more quickly in one
visual test when they were exposed to simulated
mobile phone signals. This was the only change noted
among more than 20 variables compared.3
2 In a study of 209 brain tumor cases and 425 matched
controls, there was no increased risk of brain tumors
associated with mobile phone use. When tumors did
exist in certain locations, however, they were more
likely to be on the side of the head where the mobile
phone was used. Because this occurred in only a small
number of cases, the increased likelihood was too small
to be statistically significant.4
In summary, we do not have enough information at this
point to assure the public that there are, or are not, any
low incident health problems associated with use of
mobile phones. FDA continues to work with all parties,
including other federal agencies and industry, to assure
that research is undertaken to provide the necessary
10 Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
answers to the outstanding questions about the safety of
mobile phones.
What is known about cases of human cancer that have
been reported in users of hand-held mobile phones?
Some people who have used mobile phones have been
diagnosed with brain cancer. But it is important to
understand that this type of cancer also occurs among
people who have not used mobile phones. In fact, brain
cancer occurs in the U.S. population at a rate of about 6
new cases per 100,000 people each year. At that rate,
assuming 80 million users of mobile phones (a number
increasing at a rate of about 1 million per month), about
4800 cases of brain cancer would be expected each year
among those 80 million people, whether or not they
used their phones. Thus it is not possible to tell whether
any individual’s cancer arose because of the phone, or
whether it would have happened anyway. A key question
is whether the risk of getting a particular form of cancer
is greater among people who use mobile phones than
among the rest of the population. One way to answer
that question is to compare the usage of mobile phones
among people with brain cancer with the use of mobile
phones among appropriately matched people without
brain cancer. This is called a case-control study.
The current case-control study of brain cancers by the
National Cancer Institute, as well as the follow-up
research to be sponsored by industry, will begin to gener-
ate this type of information.
What is FDA’s role concerning the safety of mobile
phones? Under the law, FDA does not review the safety of radia-
tion-emitting consumer products such as mobile phones
before marketing, as it does with new drugs or medical
devices. However, the agency has authority to take
action if mobile phones are shown to emit radiation at a
level that is hazardous to the user. In such a case, FDA
could require the manufacturers of mobile phones to
notify users of the health hazard and to repair, replace or
recall the phones so that the hazard no longer exists.
Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA
regulatory actions at this time, FDA has urged the
mobile phone industry to take a number of steps to
assure public safety. The agency has recommended that
the industry:
support needed research into possible biological
effects of RF of the type emitted by mobile phones;
design mobile phones in a way that minimizes any
RF exposure to the user that is not necessary for
device function; and
cooperate in providing mobile phone users with the
best possible information on what is known about
possible effects of mobile phone use on human
health.
At the same time, FDA belongs to an interagency work-
ing group of the federal agencies that have responsibility
for different aspects of mobile phone safety to ensure a
coordinated effort at the federal level. These agencies
are:
Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use 11
National Institute for Occupational Safety and
Health
Environmental Protection Agency
Federal Communications Commission
Occupational Health and Safety Administration
National Telecommunications and Information
Administration
The National Institutes of Health also participates in
this group.
In the absence of conclusive information about any pos-
sible risk, what can concerned individuals do?
If there is a risk from these products--and at this point
we do not know that there is--it is probably very small.
But if people are concerned about avoiding even poten-
tial risks, there are simple steps they can take to do so.
For example, time is a key factor in how much exposure
a person receives. Those persons who spend long periods
of time on their hand-held mobile phones could con-
sider holding lengthy conversations on conventional
phones and reserving the hand-held models for shorter
conversations or for situations when other types of
phones are not available.
People who must conduct extended conversations in
their cars every day could switch to a type of mobile
phone that places more distance between their bodies
and the source of the RF, since the exposure level drops
off dramatically with distance. For example, they could
switch to:
a mobile phone in which the antenna is located
outside the vehicle,
a hand-held phone with a built-in antenna con-
nected to a different antenna mounted on the out-
side of the car or built into a separate package, or
a headset with a remote antenna to a mobile phone
carried at the waist.
Again, the scientific data do not demonstrate that
mobile phones are harmful. But if people are concerned
about the radiofrequency energy from these products,
taking the simple precautions outlined above can reduce
any possible risk.

Attaching and Removing Your Battery
Attaching Your Battery
Your terminal comes with a nickel metal hydride
(NiMH) battery. The battery is not charged when you
buy your terminal, but there may be enough power to
turn on the terminal. It is recommended that you charge
the battery before you use the terminal.
1 Place the battery on the back of the terminal.
2 Align the tabs on the bottom of the battery with the
slots on the bottom of the terminal.
3 Attach the battery to your terminal as shown in the
following illustration.
Getting Started
14 Getting Started
Removing Your Battery
Removing the battery is the reverse of attaching it to the
terminal.
1 Make sure that the terminal is turned off before
removing the battery.
2 Press the two latches on the top of the battery.
3 Lift the battery up and away from the terminal.
Charging Your Battery
Your terminal is packaged with a rapid charger. You
should fully charge the battery before you attempt to use
your terminal. While you are charging your terminal
with your rapid or travel charger, you will still be able to
make and receive calls. You can purchase an overnight
charger or a travel charger from your nearest Ericsson
accessory retailer.
Never attach the charger to a terminal that does not have
a battery installed.
1 Make sure that the battery is attached to the termi-
nal.
2 Connect the charger to the AC power.
3 Connect the other end of the cable to the terminal
according to the picture. The flash symbol on the
plug must face upward (you may have to press
firmly).
Getting Started 15
The terminal automatically starts charging the battery
when you attach the charger. The following indicate
charging:
•The battery meter in the display will continuously
fill and empty.
•The indicator on top of the terminal will show a
steady red light (green, if the terminal is turned on).
When the battery is fully charged, the battery meter in
the display shows full and the indicator on top of the
terminal shows a steady green light.
Note! It is possible to use the terminal while the battery is
being charged with the rapid charger or travel charger.
This is not true with the overnight charger. Using the
terminal to make or receive calls while the terminal is
being charged will increase the charging time.
To disconnect the charger, first lift the plug connected to
the terminal upwards and then pull it out.
Your Charger
Rapid Charger The rapid charger supplies power to charge your battery
while the battery is attached to your terminal. You can
make and receive calls while using the rapid charger, if
you wish. To charge your battery with the rapid charger:
1 Plug the charger into a standard wall electrical out-
let.
2 Hold the terminal with the display and keypad up.
3 Hold the small plug on the charger cord so the light-
ning bolt symbol is up.
4 Align the small plug on the charger cord with the
connector on the bottom of your terminal. The con-
nector on the terminal is above the lightning bolt
symbol.
5 Press the plug into the connector until the plug
"snaps" into place.
Note! To disconnect the charger, first twist the plug connected
to the terminal upwards and then pull it out.
16 Getting Started
Desk/Wall Stand
The desk/wall stand for your Ericsson rugged terminal
serves both as a charger and a holder for the terminal.
When the battery runs low, just place the terminal in the
desk/wall stand to charge it (the charger must be con-
nected to the desk/wall stand).
The desk/wall stand, which consists of two separate
pieces, can be placed on a table or attached to the wall.
Separate and rotate the two pieces to change between
desk and wall stand modes.
To use your desk/wall stand, do the following:
1 Separate the two pieces of the desk/wall stand (see
picture below).
2 Place the desk/wall stand on a table or attach it to
the wall.
3 Using the appropriate cord supplied with the
charger, attach the terminal to the charger.
4 Plug the other end of the charger cord into a stan-
dard electrical wall outlet.
Note! The flash symbol must face upwards.
5 Place the terminal in the desk/wall stand for charg-
ing.
Getting Started 17
Travel Charger The travel charger supplies power to charge your battery
while the battery is attached to your terminal. You can
make and receive calls while using the travel charger, if
you wish. To charge your battery with the travel charger:
1 Using the appropriate cord supplied with the
charger, attach the terminal to the charger.
2 Using the other cord supplied, plug the charger into
a standard electrical wall outlet.
When to Charge Your Battery
The NiMH battery that comes with your terminal can
be charged whenever you wish without losing perfor-
mance. This is not the case with the cheaper nickel cad-
mium type batteries, often sold as accessories from other
suppliers. For optimal talk and standby time in the long
run, we recommend that you only use Ericsson original
batteries with your Ericsson terminal.
To remind you that the battery will soon need to be
charged or replaced with a charged one, the following
will occur:
•An alarm signal (a long beep) sounds and the mes-
sage Low Battery! appears for 10 seconds in the
display.
•The indicator light on top of the terminal starts
blinking red.
Note! If the terminal is left turned on, the low battery alarm
will be repeated several times and, finally, the terminal
will turn itself off when the battery is no longer able to
power it satisfactorily. It might be possible to turn the
terminal on again, but you will not be able to make or
receive any calls. You should charge the battery or
replace it with a charged one.

top of your terminal flashes red. When this happens,
leave your terminal turned On. The terminal discharges
the battery and then shuts itself Off. You should charge
the battery within 24 hours so that the battery can
charge to full capacity.
Security Code
Your terminal has a security code that you must enter to
gain access to certain functions, such as call restrictions
and calling card numbers. The factory-programmed
code is 0000. You should change this code to provide
maximum security for your terminal.
Group Calling with TDMA Pro
If your service provider has the Ericsson TDMA Pro
Server, the R250d terminal supports group calling. Eric-
sson TDMA Pro supports calling a group of phones by
dialing a single group number defined in the TDMA
Pro database. When the terminal calls a group or receives
a group number, the display will indicate the group
name associated with the number on the second line of
the display.
When the call is active, the terminal will display the
group or alert call type on the third line of the display as
shown below.
The following group call types may be available:
•Talk - A group call where all member numbers are
dialed simultaneously and each member is included
when the terminal is answered. An active Talk
group call includes all members of the group who
answered the call. This is a two-way voice conversa-
28 Basic Operations
tion. Your terminal will automatically answer Talk
group calls when Radio Mode is selected.
•Broadcast - A group call where live or pre-recorded
broadcast voice is sent to all member numbers of
the group when the terminal is answered. This is a
one-way voice conversation. Your terminal will
automatically answer Broadcast group calls when
Radio Mode is selected.
•Sequential - A group call where each member num-
ber is dialed in a sequential order until one member
answers. When one member answers, the call is
active. This is a two-way voice conversation.
•First Answer - A group call where all member num-
bers are dialed simultaneously until one member
answers. When one member answers, the call is
active and ringing stops on the other terminals.
This is a two-way voice conversation.
Your Ericsson rugged terminal provides a flashing dis-
play when answering a call associated with an Alert
number stored in the TDMA Pro database or the termi-
nal Alert number memory. The terminal can store 25
group numbers and five Alert numbers. You must enter
your security code before you can store or delete Group
numbers or Alert numbers.

Storing and Recalling Numbers 35
You can store phone numbers and associated names in
your terminal’s memory to use for Recall dialing, Speed
Dial, and Super Dial. Each number you store can be up
to 32 digits in length, and any names you store can be
up to 24 characters in length. Group and Alert Numbers
are accessed through and
submenus.
Note! The number of phone numbers that your terminal can
store is based on each number containing 12 digits and
having an eight-character name stored with the number.
Storing longer numbers and names reduces the amount
of memory available and the actual numbers you can
store. You can view the percentage of memory used and
available through the Menu.

Message Services 41
Your terminal can receive two types of message service
(text messages and voice mail) if these services are avail-
able from your service provider. If you subscribe to
either or both services, callers can leave you text mes-
sages or voice mail. Your service provider then transmits
the text messages and voice mail notifications to your
terminal.
Text Message Service
Your terminal supports three message categories: Nor-
mal, Urgent, and Emergency. The actual tagging of the
text message is dependent on the system used by your
service provider. Your service provider transmits mes-
sages to your terminal. If your terminal is On, it receives
the messages as described below. If your terminal is not
turned On, your service provider retains the messages
and transmits them again later.
Note! Your Ericsson rugged terminal holds up to 10 messages
or a maximum of 2KB of message text.
When reviewing a text message, the status of the text
message is shown using the following letters:
•R - Read, text message has been read but not saved.
•S - Saved, text message has been read and saved.
•U - Unread, text message has not been read.
Normal Messages
If your terminal is turned On when it receives a normal
text message, your terminal sounds a brief tone and a
message similar to the one in this illustration is shown in
the display. After 10 seconds, the message will be saved
and the text message icon ( ) will appear in the dis-
play. You have a choice of reading the message immedi-
ately by pressing YES, or reading it later by pressing NO.
Pressing NO clears the message received alert from the
display and places a number and icon in the display to
remind you of your messages.
Urgent Messages
If your terminal is turned On when it receives an urgent
text message, your terminal sounds a brief tone and a
message similar to the one in this illustration is shown in
the display. As with normal messages, you have a choice
of reading the message immediately or reading it later.
Urgent messages are always shown before normal mes-
sages, regardless of the order in which they were
received.
Message Services
42 Message Services
Emergency Messages
If your terminal is turned On when it receives an emer-
gency message, your terminal sounds two brief tones,
and a message similar to the one in this illustration is
shown in the display for a few seconds.
Reading Text Messages Immediately
When a message received notice is shown in the display,
you can read the message by pressing YES. You can
scroll through the message one line at a time by pressing
and releasing Ó or Ð. You can scroll up or down
through the message three lines at a time by pressing and
holding Ó or Ð.
Call-Back Messages
Some text messages you receive may be call-back mes-
sages. A call-back message contains one or more phone
numbers included by the person sending the message. If
you press YES while reading a call-back message, a screen
similar to the one shown here appears. To dial the dis-
played number, press YES (to place a calling card call to
the displayed number, press and hold YES). If you do
not wish to call the displayed number, press NO to
resume reading the actual message.
The up and down arrows in the top right part of the dis-
play indicate that there is more than one number in the
message. (The arrows would not appear if there were just
one number.) You can scroll through the available num-
bers by pressing Ó or Ð. When you see the desired
number, press YES to dial that number.
If you do not call back the number in the message, you
have the same options for saving and deleting the mes-
sage as you do with other text messages.
If you like, you can edit a displayed call-back number
before you make the call. In the display, the cursor
appears in reverse video, and it is initially positioned at
the far left of the second line. In editing the number, you
can:
•Enter a number at the cursor location by pressing a
number key. If a digit is already in the cursor loca-
tion, that digit, as well as all digits to its right, move
one position to the right.
•Clear the digit at the cursor location by pressing
CLR.
•Move the cursor position without clearing anything
by pressing and holding Ó or Ð.
Message Services 43

fication and your terminal is turned Off, you will receive
notification the next time you turn your terminal On.
Receiving Voice Mail When Your Terminal Is in Standby
If your terminal is turned ON and is in standby when it

Access Number Not Stored screen has been dis-
played for five seconds, your terminal displays another
screen, similar to the one in this illustration, that gives
you the opportunity to store an access number.
The number is stored as Mail-1 if no access number had
been previously stored, or as Mail-2 if one number had
already been stored. After you store the number, your
terminal displays a screen asking if you want to call that
number.
