Calling Contacts Entries1. Press and release the Smart Key. (Your phone displays the Say a command screen.)2. Say “Call” and then say the name and the type of number. For example, say “Call John Mobile.” The phone dials the number stored for the entry “John,” labeled “Mobile.” If a name has only one number, or if you know the name but are not sure which number to call, say “Call” followed by the name only. For example, say “Call John.” If the name is recognized and there is only one number for the name, your phone immediately places the call. If

Important Safety Information 165ⅷIncrease the separation between the equipment and the receiver.ⅷConnect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.ⅷConsult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid DeviceA number of Sprint Nextel phones have been tested for hearing aid compatibility. When some wireless phones are used with certain hearing aids, users may detect a noise which can interfere with the effectiveness of the hearing aid. Some hearing aids are more “immune” than others to this interference noise, and phones can also vary in the amount of interference noise they may generate. ANSI standard C63.19 was developed to provide a standardized means of measuring both mobile phone and hearing aids to determine usability rating categories for both. Ratings have been developed for mobile phones to assist hearing aid users find phones that may be compatible with their hearing aid. Not all phones have been rated for compatibility with hearing aids. Phones that have been rated have a label with the rating(s) located on the box, and at www.motorola.com/accessibility.These ratings are not guarantees of compatibility. Results will vary depending on the user's hearing aid and individual type and degree of hearing loss. If a hearing aid is particularly vulnerable to interference, even a phone with a higher rating may still cause unacceptable noise levels in the hearing aid. Trying out the phone with your hearing aid is the best way to evaluate it for your personal needs.“M” Rating: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements for hearing aid compatibility and are likely to generate less interference to hearing aids than unrated phones. (M4 is the “better” or higher of the two ratings.) On those models with an extendable antenna, this rating is determined only with the antenna extended.“T” Rating: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to be more usable with a
166 Section 4A. Important Safety Informationhearing aid's telecoil (“T Switch” or “Telephone Switch”) than unrated phones. (T4 is the “better” or higher of the two ratings.) On those models with a telecoil mode setting, this rating is determined only with the phone so set. For setting instructions, see “Features for the Hearing Impaired” in the section entitled “Advanced Calling Features”. Note that not all hearing aids have telecoils in them.Hearing aids may also be measured for immunity to interference from wireless phones and may have ratings similar to wireless phones. Ask your hearing health care professional for the rating of your hearing aid. Add the rating of your hearing aid and your phone to determine the estimated usability: ⅷAny combined rating equal to or greater than six offers excellent use.ⅷAny combined rating equal to five is considered normal use.ⅷAny combined rating equal to four is considered usable.Thus, if you use an M3 phone with a M3 hearing aid you will have a combined rating of six for “excellent use.” This methodology applies equally for T ratings.Should you experience interference or find the quality of service unsatisfactory after purchasing your phone, promptly return it to the store within 30 days of purchase. With the Sprint 30-day Risk-Free Guarantee, you may return the phone within 30 days of purchase for a full refund.More information about hearing aid compatibility may be found at: www.motorola.com/accessibility, www.fcc.gov, www.fda.gov, and www.hearingloss.org/learn/cellphonetech.aspSpecific Absorption Rate DataThis 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
Important Safety InformationSection 4A. Important Safety Information 167scientific 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 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 0.71 W/kg, and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 1.13 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available accessories and regulatory requirements).2While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all 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 reported to the FCC includes the FCC-accepted Motorola testing protocol, assessment procedure, and measurement uncertainty range for this product.1.34 0.97
168 Section 4A. Important Safety Informationmeet 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.netor the Canadian Wireless Telecommunications Association (CWTA) Web site:http://www.cwta.ca.Information From the World Health OrganizationPresent 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 hands-free devices to keep mobile phones away from your head and body.Source: WHO Fact Sheet 193Further information: http://www.who.int./peh-emf Product RegistrationOnline Product Registration: http://www.motorola.com/warrantyProduct registration is an important step toward enjoying your new Motorola product.
