shoulder.
Try not to hold, bend, or twist the phone’s antenna.
Don’t use the phone if the antenna is damaged.

146 Section 4A: Important Safety Information
Safety and General Information
This section contains important information on the safe and
efficient operation of your mobile device. Read this information
before using your mobile device.1
Exposure To Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
Your mobile device contains a transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it
receives and transmits RF energy. When you communicate with your
mobile device, the system handling your call controls the power level at
which your mobile device transmits.
Your Motorola mobile device is designed to comply with local regulatory
requirements in your country concerning exposure of human beings to RF
energy.
Operational Precautions
For optimal mobile device performance and to be sure that human
exposure to RF energy does not exceed the guidelines set forth in the
relevant standards, always follow these instructions and precautions.
External Antenna Care
If your mobile device has an external antenna, use only a Motorola-
supplied or approved replacement antenna. Use of unauthorized antennas,
modifications, or attachments could damage the mobile device and/or
may result in your device not complying with local regulatory requirements
in your country.
DO NOT hold the external antenna when the mobile device is IN USE.
Holding the external antenna affects call quality and may cause the mobile
device to operate at a higher power level than needed.
Product Operation
When placing or receiving a phone call, hold your mobile device just like
you would a landline phone.
If you wear the mobile device on your body, always place the mobile device
in a Motorola-supplied or approved clip, holder, holster, case, or body
harness. If you do not use a body-worn accessory supplied or approved by
1. The information provided in this document supersedes the general safety
information in user’s guides published prior to September 1, 2005.
Section 4A: Important Safety Information 147
Important Safety Information
Motorola, keep the mobile device and its antenna at least 2.5 centimeters
(1 inch) from your body when transmitting.
When using any data feature of the mobile device, with or without an
accessory cable, position the mobile device and its antenna at least 2.5
centimeters (1 inch) from your body.
Using accessories not supplied or approved by Motorola may cause your
mobile device to exceed RF energy exposure guidelines. For a list of
Motorola-supplied or approved accessories, visit our website at
www.motorola.com.
RF Energy Interference/Compatibility
Nearly every electronic device is subject to RF energy interference from
external sources if inadequately shielded, designed, or otherwise
configured for RF energy compatibility. In some circumstances your mobile
device may cause interference with other devices.
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 operation.
Follow Instructions to Avoid Interference Problems
Turn off your mobile device in any location where posted notices instruct
you to do so. These locations include hospitals or health care facilities that
may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.
In an aircraft, turn off your mobile device whenever instructed to do so by
airline staff. If your mobile device offers an airplane mode or similar
feature, consult airline staff about using it in flight.
Pacemakers
If you have a pacemaker, consult your physician before using this device.
Persons with pacemakers should observe the following precautions:
ALWAYS keep the mobile device more than 20 centimeters (8 inches)
from your pacemaker when the mobile device is turned ON.
DO NOT carry the mobile device in the breast pocket.
Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for
interference.
Turn OFF the mobile device immediately if you have any reason to
suspect that interference is taking place.
148 Section 4A: Important Safety Information

Glass Parts
Some parts of your mobile device may be made of glass. This glass could
break if the product is dropped on a hard surface or receives a substantial
impact. If glass breaks, do not touch or attempt to remove. Stop using your
mobile device until the glass is replaced by a qualified service center.
Seizures/Blackouts
Some people may be susceptible to epileptic seizures or blackouts when
exposed to flashing lights, such as when playing video games. These may
occur even if a person has 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 physician before
playing video games or enabling a flashing-lights feature (if available) on
your mobile device.
Discontinue use and consult a physician if any of the following symptoms
occur: convulsion, eye or muscle twitching, loss of awareness, involuntary
movements, or disorientation. It is always a good idea to hold the screen
away from your eyes, leave the lights on in the room, take a 15-minute
break every hour, and stop use if you are very tired.
Repetitive Motion
When you repetitively perform actions such as pressing keys or entering
finger-written characters, you may experience occasional discomfort in
your hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of your body. If you
continue to have discomfort during or after such use, stop use and see a
physician.
Section 4A: Important Safety Information 151
Important Safety Information
Hearing Aid Compatibility with Mobile
Phones
Some Motorola phones are measured for compatibility with hearing aids. If
the box for your particular model has “Rated for Hearing Aids” printed on
it, the following explanation applies.
When some mobile phones are used near some hearing devices (hearing
aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or
whining noise. Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this
interference noise, and phones also vary in the amount of interference
they generate.
The wireless telephone industry has developed ratings for some of their
mobile phones, to assist hearing device users in finding phones that may
be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phones have been rated.
Phones that are rated have the rating on their box or a label on the box.
The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the user’s
hearing device and hearing loss. If your hearing device happens to be
vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to use a rated phone
successfully. Trying out the phone with your hearing device is the best way
to evaluate it for your personal needs.
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely
to generate less interference to hearing devices than phones that are not
labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.
T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to
be more usable with a hearing device’s telecoil (“T Switch” or “Telephone
Switch”) than unrated phones. T4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.
(Note that not all hearing devices have telecoils in them.)
Hearing devices may also be measured for immunity to this type of
interference. Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing health A-18
Hearing Aid Compatibility professional may help you find results for your
hearing device. The more immune your hearing aid is, the less likely you are
to experience interference noise from mobile phones.
Battery Tips
Battery life depends on the network, signal strength, temperature,
features, and accessories you use.
152 Section 4A: Important Safety Information
Always use Motorola Original batteries and chargers. The
warranty does not cover damage caused by non-
Motorola batteries and/or chargers.
New batteries or batteries stored for a long time may
take more time to charge.
When charging your battery, keep it near room temperature.
When storing your battery, keep it uncharged in a cool, dark, dry place.
Never expose batteries to temperatures below -10°C (14°F) or above
45°C (113°F). Always take your phone with you when you leave your
vehicle.
It is normal for batteries to gradually wear down and require longer
charging times. If you notice a change in your battery life, it is probably
time to purchase a new battery.
Contact your local recycling center for proper battery disposal.
Warning: Never dispose of batteries in a fire because they may
explode.
Before using your phone, read the battery safety information in the “Safety
and General Information” section included in this guide.
Specific Absorption Rate Data
This model wireless phone meets the government’s requirements
for exposure to radio waves.
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF)
energy set by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S.
Government and by the Canadian regulatory authorities. 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 standards
include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all
persons, regardless of age or health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit
set by the FCC and by the Canadian regulatory authorities is 1.6 W/kg.1
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted
by the FCC and by Industry Canada 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 level
032375o
Section 4A: Important Safety Information 153
Important Safety Information
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 wireless base station, the lower the power output.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public in the U.S. and
Canada, it must be tested and certified to the FCC and Industry Canada
that it does not exceed the limit established by each government for safe
exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the
ear and worn on the body) reported to the FCC and available for review by
Industry Canada. The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested
for use at the ear is 1. 49 W/kg , and when worn on the body, as described
in this user guide, is 1. 45 W/kg. The SAR value for this product in its data
transmission mode (body-worn use) is N/A W / kg. (Body-worn
measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available
accessories and regulatory requirements).2
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones
and at various positions, they all meet the governmental requirements for
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.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on
the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) Web site:
http://www.phonefacts.net
or the Canadian Wireless Telecommunications Association (CW TA) Web
site:
http://www.cwta.ca
1. In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones
used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/ kg) averaged over one gram of
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. The SAR information includes the Motorola testing protocol,
assessment procedure, and measurement uncertainty range for this
product.
154 Section 4A: Important Safety Information
Information from the World Health
Organization
WHO Information Present scientific information does not indicate the
need for any special precautions for the use of mobile phones. If you are
concerned, you may want to limit your own or your children’s RF exposure
by limiting the length of calls or by using handsfree devices to keep mobile
phones away from your head and body.

Smart Practices While Driving
Drive Safe, Call SmartSM
Check the laws and regulations on the use of mobile devices and
their accessories in the areas where you drive. Always obey them.
The use of these devices may be prohibited or restricted in certain
areas. Contact www.motorola.com/callsmart for more information.
Your mobile device lets you communicate by voice and data—almost
anywhere, anytime, wherever wireless service is available and safe
conditions allow. When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility. If
you choose to use your mobile device while driving, remember the
following tips:
Get to know your Motorola mobile device and its features
such as speed dial and redial. If available, these features help you
to place your call without taking your attention off the road.
When available, use a handsfree device. If possible, add an
additional layer of convenience to your mobile device with one of the
many Motorola Original™ handsfree accessories available today.
Position your mobile device within easy reach. Be able to access
your mobile device without removing your eyes from the road. If you
receive an incoming call at an inconvenient time, if possible, let your
voice mail answer it for you.
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, ice, and even heavy traffic
can be hazardous.
Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving.
Jotting down a “to do” list or going through your address book takes
attention away from your primary responsibility—driving safely.
Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls
when your car is not moving or before pulling into traffic. If
you must make a call while moving, dial only a few numbers, check
the road and your mirrors, then continue.
Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that
may be distracting. Make people you are talking with aware you are
driving and suspend conversations that can divert your attention away
from the road.
Use your mobile device to call for help. Dial 911 or other local
emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident, or medical
emergencies.*
158 Section 4A: Important Safety Information
Use your mobile device to help others in emergencies. If you
see an auto accident, crime in progress, or other serious emergency
where lives are in danger, call 911 or other local emergency number, as
you would want others to do for you.*
Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency wireless
assistance number when necessary. If you see a broken-down
vehicle posing no serious hazard, a broken traffic signal, a minor traffic
accident where no one appears injured, or a vehicle you know to be
stolen, call roadside assistance or other special non-emergency
wireless number.*
