8290 User Guide v2 2/18/00 [ 35 ]Voice mail++8. Voice mail++Voice mail is a network feature that enables those who call you to leave a voice message.Note: You can use voice mail with either one or two phone lines.When you receive a voice message, your phone lets you know by beeping, displaying an icon on the screen, or showing a text message. The method of notification depends upon your carrier. Additionally, if you receive more than one voice mail message, your phone may display the number of messages that you have received. Finally, if you have subscribed to two different phone lines, the message would indicate the line to which the message was addressed.However, even though your phone notifies you of a message, the voice mail feature is independent of your phone’s software. To use voice mail, you must have:•A voice mail subscription•A voice mailbox number•A temporary passwordThese items are provided by your service provider. Your service provider should also tell you how to record a greeting for your voice mailbox and how to change the temporary password.After you obtain this information from your service provider, you must then save the voice mailbox number given to you to your phone. Refer to “Save the voice mailbox number” on page 36.After you have saved your voice mailbox number, refer to “Listen to your voice messages” on page 36.Note: If you have difficulty using the voice mail feature, contact your service provider.8290ug v2.fm Page 35 Friday, February 18, 2000 5:42 PM

Be aware that the information in this section is subject to change as the batteries, chargers, and accessories change.This phone is intended for use when supplied with power from an ACP-7U, an ACP-8U, LCH-8, or an LCH-9 battery. Other usage could invalidate any approval given to this apparatus and might be dangerous.Warning! When you purchase batteries, chargers, and accessories for your phone, use only batteries, chargers, and accessories that have received approval from the phone’s manufacturer. The use of any other type of phone-related hardware may invalidate any approval or warranty applying to the phone, and could also be dangerous. For availability of approved batteries, chargers, and accessories, check with your dealer.Note: For information on how to charge and recharge your battery, refer to “Charge the battery” on page 10.When the battery is fully charged, the indicator will tell you that the battery is fully charged.When you are not using a charger, disconnect it from the power source. Do not leave the battery connected to a charger for more than a week, since overcharging could shorten its life span. If left unused, a fully-charged battery will discharge itself over time.Temperature extremes can affect the ability of your battery to charge. Therefore, allow it to cool down or warm up before trying to charge it.8290ug v2.fm Page 108 Friday, February 18, 2000 5:42 PM

When no more talk time is left, a warning tone is sounded and the phone switches itself off.Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting can occur when a metallic object, like a coin, a clip, or a pen causes a direct connection of the + and - terminals of the battery, which are metal strips on the back of the battery.An example of short-circuiting could occur if you carry a spare battery in your pocket or purse, where the battery could come into contact with objects such as a coin. Short-circuiting could damage either the battery or the connecting object.Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a closed car in either summer or winter conditions, will reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try to keep the battery between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F).A phone with a hot or cold battery might not work temporarily, even if the battery is fully charged. The performance of Li-Ion batteries is particularly limited in temperatures below 0°C (32°F).The following list provides guidelines that you can follow:•When the operating time (talk time and standby time) is noticeably shorter than normal, buy a new battery.•Use the battery only for its intended purpose.•Never use any charger or battery that is damaged and/or worn out.•Batteries must be recycled or disposed of properly. Do not dispose of batteries by putting them in fire!•When you disconnect the power cord of any accessory, grasp and pull the plug, not the cord.8290ug v2.fm Page 109 Friday, February 18, 2000 5:42 PM

However, certain electronic equipment might not be shielded against the RF signals from your wireless phone. The following four subsections provide more information about this topic.PacemakersPacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 6 inches (20 cm) should be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers:•Should always keep the phone more than 6 inches (20 cm) from their pacemakers when the phone is switched on.•Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.•Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference.Note: If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, switch off your phone immediately.Hearing aidsSome digital wireless phones could interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you might want to consult your service provider.Other medical devicesOperation of any radio transmitting equipment, including cellular phones, could interfere with the functionality of inadequately protected medical devices. Consult a physician or the manufacturer of the medical device to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy.

You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.Posted facilitiesSwitch your phone off in any facility where posted notices so require.Potentially explosive atmospheresSwitch off your phone if you are in any area that has a potentially explosive atmosphere, and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire, resulting in bodily injury or even death.You are advised to switch off the phone while at a refueling point (service station). And, you are reminded of the need to observe restrictions regarding the use of radio equipment in fuel depots (fuel storage and distribution areas), chemical plants, or where blasting operations are in progress.Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often—but not always—clearly marked. These areas include the following: below deck on boats; 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.8290ug v2.fm Page 112 Friday, February 18, 2000 5:42 PM

When it is ON, it receives and sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.In August 1996, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines that included safety levels for handheld wireless phones. Those guidelines are consistent with safety standards previously set by both U.S and international standards bodies:•ANSI C95.1 (1992)*, NCRP Report 86 (1986)*, ICNIRP (1996)*, and RSS-102 issue 1.Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic evaluations of the relevant scientific literature.
