Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use 1
General
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.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy
The International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radia-
tion Protection (ICNIRP), sponsored by the World
Health Organization (WHO), published a statement in
1996 which sets limits for exposure to RF fields from
handheld mobile terminals. According to this statement,
which is based on the available body of research, there is
no evidence that mobile terminals meeting the recom-
mended limits can cause any adverse health effects. All
Ericsson telephones conform to the ICNIRP recommen-
dations and international exposure standards, such as:
CENELEC European Pre-standard ENV50166-2
ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992 (USA, Asia-Pacific)
If you want to limit RF exposure even further, you may
choose to control the duration of your calls and operate
your terminal in the most power efficient manner.
Antenna Care and Replacement
•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.
Ericsson cannot guarantee the terminal being water
resistant.
Battery
The terminal is water-resistant when the battery is
removed.
Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
2Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
•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 than the one you have bought. Unautho-
rized batteries could damage the terminal and may
violate the appropriate regulations and will void the
warranty and Ericsson can not guarantee the termi-
nal being water resistant.
Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of telephones
in the areas where you drive. If you are going to use your
terminal while driving:
Get to know your wireless terminal and its features
such as speed dial and redial.
When available, use a handsfree
device.
Position your wireless terminal
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 terminal to call for help.
Use you terminal to help others in emergencies.
Call roadside assistance or a special wireless non-
emergency assistance number when necessary.
Give full attention to driving.
RF energy may affect some electronic systems in motor
vehicles. In addition, some vehicle manufacturers forbid
the use of mobile phones in their vehicles. Check with
your vehicle manufacturer’s representative to be sure that
your terminal will not affect the electronic systems of
your vehicle.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment, for example equip-
ment in hospitals and cars, is shielded from RF energy.
However, RF energy from telephones may affect some
electronic equipment.
•Turn off your terminal in health care facilities when
regulations posted in the areas instruct you to do so.
•Do not use your terminal near medical equipment
without requesting permission.
Mobile phones may affect the operation of some
implanted cardiac pacemakers, equipment for people
with hearing impairments and other medically
implanted equipment. Pacemaker patients should be
Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use 3
aware that the use of a terminal very close to a pace-
maker might cause the device to malfunction. Avoid
placing the terminal over the pacemaker, i.e. in your
breast pocket. When using the terminal, place it at the
ear opposite your pacemaker. If a minimum distance of
15 cm is kept between the terminal and the pacemaker,
the risk of interference is limited. Contact your cardiolo-
gist for more information.
Aircraft
•Turn off your terminal before boarding any aircraft.
•Do not use it on the ground without crew permis-
sion.
To prevent interference with aircraft systems, you must
not use your terminal while the plane is in the air.
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.
To reduce 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.
Blasting Areas
Tur n o ff your terminal when in a blasting area or in
areas posted “turn off two-way radio” to avoid interfer-
ing with blasting operations. Construction crews often
use remote control RF devices to set off explosives.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Your Ericsson terminal is specially designed for use in
hazardous environments or areas with potentially explo-
sive atmospheres. However, you must pay special atten-
tion and be more careful when using the phone in such
environments.
The terminal is designed for use in these environments
only with the specially marked intrinsically safe Ericsson
battery included in your phone package. Do not use the
phone with any other type of battery other than the one
marked “Intrinsically Safe.”
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often,
but not always, clearly marked. They include fuelling
4Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
areas, such as gas stations, below deck on boats, fuel or
chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where
the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain,
dust, or metal powders.
Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid, or
explosives in the compartment of your vehicle, that con-
tains your terminal and accessories.
Children
Do not allow children to play with your terminal since
they could hurt themselves or others or accidentally
damage the terminal.
Product Care
Although the terminal is resistant 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 properly connected, the antenna is
properly screwed on and that all accessories are removed
before you wash your terminal. Do not use any deter-
gent 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.
•Do not use any other accessories than Ericsson
originals. Failure to do so may result in loss of per-
formance, fire, electric shock or injury, 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 Centers
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 antenna should be done
under dry conditions. Make sure that no moisture
gets into the terminal.
Efficient Operation
To use your terminal for optimum performance with
minimum power consumption:
In the Phone Mode, hold the terminal as you
would a telephone. While speaking directly into the
mouthpiece, angle the antenna in a direction up
and over your shoulder.
In Radio Mode and Speakerphone Mode, hold the
terminal in front of your face about 30 - 50 cm
away and speak in the direction of the terminal.
Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use 5
•Do not hold the terminal close to your ear while it
is in Speakerphone or Radio Mode.
•Do not hold the antenna when the terminal is in
use. Holding the antenna affects call quality, may
cause the terminal to operate at a higher power level
than needed and shorten talk and standby times.
6Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
Getting Started 7
Complete the following steps after you have removed
your terminal and its components from the box:
1 Attach your belt clip or swivel to your battery
(optional).
2 Attach the battery to your terminal.
3 Before using your terminal, fully charge the battery
using the charger provided with your terminal.
Attaching Your Belt Clip or Swivel to Your
Battery
Attach your belt clip or swivel with the screw provided.
Using the belt clip or swivel is optional.
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
8Getting 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 9
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.

10 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 11
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.
12 Learning About Your Terminal

20 Basic Operations
Emergency Calls
Your terminal was programmed with an emergency
number (911) when it was manufactured. The pro-
grammed emergency number can be dialed and called at
any time, if there is a 911 system available, regardless of
any call restrictions (except Keypad Lock) you have set
through the Menu. A representative from your
service provider or the retail outlet where you purchased
your terminal should be able to change the emergency
number in your terminal, if a 911 system is not available
in your service area.
If police, fire, or medical help is needed, dial 911 or your
emergency number and press YES. Tell the dispatcher
that you are calling from a wireless terminal. Wireless
911 calls do not automatically provide emergency per-
sonnel with your name, location, or terminal number.
The dispatcher will want to know the following:
1 Your name and wireless phone number.
2 The nature of the emergency.
3 If police, fire, or medical assistance is needed.
4 The exact location of the emergency including cross
streets, mileposts, or landmarks.
5 How many people are involved, their condition, and
if help is being administered.

International Calls
If allowed by your system, you can place international
calls with your terminal just as you would from any
phone. If you have difficulty completing international
calls, check with your system operator for information.
Caller Number Identification
If your system provides Caller ID service, your terminal
shows the phone number of an incoming call in the dis-
play. Also, if the number is one that you have stored in
memory with a name, the name is shown with the
phone number when your terminal rings. If the Caller
ID information is not available, the message NO ID or a
Basic Operations 21
blank line is shown in the display. The word Private
may be shown if the caller ID is restricted by the system.
Low Battery Power Alert
The low battery alert sounds when your battery is reach-
ing its lowest operational power level. The words Low
Battery flash in the display, and the indicator light on
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-
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
22 Basic Operations
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.
Contact your service provider for more information on
TDMA Pro.

Message Services 33
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

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.
