Enclosed is a draft copy of the Users manual. The final manual will contain the following Safety Information:
Safety Information
IMPORTANT: Read this information before using your wireless handheld phone.
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 Commission (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for
handheld wireless phones. Those guidelines are consistent with safety standards previously set by both U.S. and international
standards bodies:
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95. 1-1992
National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP). Report 86
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996
Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6
Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic 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 guidelines (and those standards). For additional information concerning
exposure to radio frequency signals, see the statement by the FDA at the end of this user guide.
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if you wear a handset on your body, use the Motorola-supplied or
approved carrying case, holster, or other body-worn accessory. If you do not use a body-worn accessory, ensure the antenna is
at least one inch (2.5 centimeters) from your body when transmitting. Use of non-Motorola accessories may violate FCC RF
exposure guidelines.
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.
Phone Operation
Normal Operation
Hold the phone as you would any other telephone, with the antenna pointed up and over your shoulder.
Tips on Efficient Operation
Observe the following guidelines to operate your phone most efficiently.
Extend your antenna fully.
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.
Batteries
Caution:All batteries can cause property damage, injury, or burns if a conductive material, such as jewelry, keys or beaded
chains, touches exposed terminals. The material may complete an electrical circuit and become quite hot. To protect against
such unwanted current drain, exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when placing it inside your pocket,
purse, or other container with metal objects. When the battery is detached from the phone, your batteries are packed with a
protective battery cover; please use this cover for storing your batteries when not in use.
Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless telephones in the areas where you drive. Always obey them. Observe
the following guidelines when using your phone while driving.
Give full attention to driving--driving safely is your first responsibility.
Use hands-free phone operation, if available.
APPLICANT: MOTOROLA, INC. FCC ID: IHDT5ZG1
EXHIBIT 8
Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. However, certain equipment may not be shielded against the
RF signals from your wireless phone.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of six inches (6") 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 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 minimize the potential for interference
should turn the phone OFF immediately if you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult
your hearing aid manufacturer 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 adequately shielded
from external RF energy. Your physician 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 equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the
manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the manufacturer 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
Switch OFF your phone before boarding an aircraft.
Airline regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Check and comply with the policy of your airline regarding the
use of your phone while the aircraft is on the ground.
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 instructions.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn your phone OFF, do not remove your battery when you are in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, and
obey all signs and instructions. Sparks from your battery in such areas could cause an explosion 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 or chemical transfer or storage facilities; areas where fuel odors are present (for
example, if a gas/propane leak occurs in a car or home); areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain,
dust, or metal powders; and any other area where you normally would 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 injury could result.

Safety Information
Important:
Read this information before using your
wireless handheld phone.
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
Commissions (FCC) adopted RF exposure
guidelines with safety levels for handheld wireless

Batteries
Using the Battery
About Your Batteries
Your TDMA digital StarTAC™ phone can use either
Lithium Ion (LiIon) or Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH)
batteries. Batteries are available in these sizes:
Slim, Standard, and Extra Capacity.
Your phone can use two batteries at the same time.
You can use:
any single main or auxiliary battery
or
a main and auxiliary battery combination
to fit your needs. You can even extend your talk-
time by attaching an auxiliary battery at any time,
without interrupting your call.
Battery Talk-Time and Standby-Time
Talk-time
refers to the time you can talk on your
phone before the battery is fully discharged.
Standby-time
is the time that your phone is on but
not used for talking.
Notes:
Talking on the phone uses more power than
leaving it idle. The more power you use for
talking, the less you’ll have for standby-time,
and vice-versa.
All times are approximate and depend on the
battery used, network configuration, signal
strength, and the features selected.
Talk and standby times are lower in analog
mode.
Your phone operates more efficiently in
Digital mode. If the icon is displayed in
the lower left corner, your phone’s
14
performance is reflected in the digital section
of the table below. Otherwise, refer to the
Analog section.
The following table shows ranges for battery talk-
times and standby times.
Storing and Disposing of Batteries
To prolong the life of your batteries, do not expose
them to temperatures below -10°C (14°F) or above
45°C (113°F). Always take your phone with you
when you leave your car.
To dispose of batteries, check with your local
recycling center for a battery recycler near you.
Never dispose of batteries in a fire.

Battery Charging Tips
To ensure that you enjoy maximum battery life and
use your battery to its fullest capacity:
Always use Motorola approved battery
chargers.
For the best results, Li-Ion batteries should
be charged using the E•P™ Desktop
Charger, or your phone’s internal charger.
The battery should be at or near room
temperature when charging.
When you don’t intend to use a battery for a
while, store it uncharged in a cool, dark, dry
place, such as a refrigerator.
Green
The battery is charged within
approximately 90% of its capacity and
can be used. Charging the battery for
an additional hour brings it up to 100%
capacity.
Flashing
red
Either the battery or the power supply
is damaged and cannot be charged.
Yellow
The phone is inserted and rapid
charging.
22
Do not leave a NiMH battery connected to
any charger for longer than 24 hours.
A new NiMH battery may require several full
charge/discharge cycles in order to achieve its
optimum performance. After this initial charge, you
can recharge your battery at your convenience,
using the phone’s rapid travel charger.
Quick Change Power Source
(“Seamless Connection”)
The quick change feature enables you to switch
power sources while a call is in progress without
losing the call. If you hear a low-battery warning
while you are in a call, plug in the Cigarette Lighter
Adapter or AC Adapter.
Charge Times
Locate your battery by type to see how long your
battery takes to charge to a 95% power level:
After the battery reaches 95%, it begins to slow
charge until it is fully charged. It is normal for
batteries to become warm during charging.

Reference Information
Accessory Options
An exciting line of Motorola TDMA digital StarTAC™
accessories, now smaller and lighter than ever, can
enhance and personalize your cellular experience.
Batteries
If your cellular phone is quickly
becoming your companion, an
optional auxiliary battery gives
your phone a boost. Auxiliary
batteries attach to the back of
your phone and provide extra talk
time in addition to your main
battery. See “Battery Talk-Time
and Standby-Time” on page 13 for
battery talk-times and standby-
times.
Note: Nickel Metal Hydride batteries should not be
left in the charger for more than 24 hours.
Cigarette Lighter Adapter
With the cigarette lighter
adapter, you can power your
phone and charge your phone’s
battery directly from your
vehicle’s cigarette lighter! In
some cars, the engine must be
running in order for the cigarette
lighter to operate.
105
Reference
Desktop Charger (AC Adapter
required)
The desktop charger is
designed for optimal
performance and
compatibility with Motorola’s
new generation of cellular
telephones. The desktop
charger’s pocket can charge
batteries while they are
attached to or separate from your phone. Now it is
easy to rotate batteries and always have a charged
spare.
Holster
Your TDMA digital StarTAC™
phone is so small and light, it is
positively wearable. Slip it in and
clip it on—for the ultimate in
high-tech fashion.
Notes:
The holster is designed for your convenience
and is not meant to secure your phone under
all circumstances.
For body-worn use, keep the antenna at least
one inch from your body when transmitting.
Headset
The convenient headset provides
both an earphone and microphone in
one small piece for simple hands-free
and private telephone conversations.
The headset plugs directly into the
jack on the top of your phone, so that
you can wear your phone and move freely. Place
the foam cover on the earpiece for a more
comfortable fit.
106
Hands-Free Vehicle Kit
The optional Hands-Free Kit gives you the
convenience of hands-free, speaker phone
operation while in your car. Full duplex operation
lets you simultaneously talk and listen, so both
parties can interrupt each other for a normal
sounding conversation.
The Hands-Free Kit automatically powers your
phone and charges its battery (even when your
car’s engine is turned off). The Hands-Free Kit also
includes a required external antenna that can
improve your signal reception and boost
performance.
Note: The use of wireless telephones and their
accessories (devices) may be prohibited or
restricted in certain areas. Always obey the laws
and regulations on the use of these devices.
Accessory Limited Warranty
Information
We recommend that you use Motorola original
batteries and accessories. Under its limited cellular
telephone warranty, Motorola specifically disclaims
any responsibility for damage caused by the use of
portable cellular telephone accessories not
manufactured by Motorola.

accessories, see your dealer or visit our Web site at

Troubleshooting
Question Answer
I pressed the
power button, but
nothing happened.
What’s wrong with
my phone?
Make sure that you press and hold the power button
until the display appears and you hear an audible alert. If
nothing still happens, then check that you have installed
a battery and that the battery is charged. For more
information about batteries and charging see the
sections on batteries starting with “Installing and
Removing Batteries” on page 17.
My battery didn’t
last as long as I
expected. What
can I do to extend
battery life?
Your battery’s “talk-time” and “standby-time” are
relative measurements of the battery’s capacity. The
more you talk on the phone, the less standby-time you
have, and vice versa.
To get the most from your battery, allow it to charge
fully. To charge the battery to 100% of its capacity, leave
it in the charger for an extra hour after the chargers light
turns green.
You can also turn on the Power Save Mode feature to
extend battery life. However, the LED Power/Status
Indicator does not light when this feature is activated.
Certain features demand power from your battery and
reduce battery life. If you have selected the Automatic
Display of Individual Call Timer feature, the display uses
battery power to remain active during each call. Turn this
feature off to conserve battery energy. (See “Displaying
the Individual Timer Automatically” on page 64 for more
information on this feature.)
Make sure that you are using batteries that are
compatible with your phone.
Exposing your battery to extreme temperatures—below
-10°C (14°F) or above 45°C (113°F)—can shorten battery
life. Batteries are especially sensitive to high
temperature extremes. As a good rule, always take your
phone with you when you leave your car.
The display says,
“Locked. How do I
unlock my phone?
Enter the last three digits of your cellular number. If that
doesn’t work, use the factory preset lock code: 123. If
all else fails, call your service provider (the company that
sends you your monthly cellular bill) for assistance. (See
“Locking/Unlocking Your Phone” on page 76 for more
information on Security Features.)
108
I tried to place a
call and received a
fast busy signal.
This sound means that the cellular system did not
process your call. For example, the cellular system may
be overloaded with call attempts. To redial the number,
press æ before ending your call attempt, or press
º and try the call again later. (See “Redialing a
Number” on page 29 for more information on redialing.)
I tried to place a
call and received
an alternating
high/low tone.
This sound means your call did not reach the cellular
system. You may have dialed the number too soon after
turning the phone on. Wait until the “NS” light stops
blinking before placing a call.
An alternating tone may also indicate that your phone’s
signal is blocked. Make sure you’re clear of any
obstructions such as bridges, parking garages, or tall
buildings.
I tried to listen to
my Voice Mail (or
use a paging
service, a calling
card, etc.) but
nothing happened.
You have probably turned off the Scratchpad tones.
Place your call, enter the access numbers when
prompted by the recording, then press ‰ æ. To
avoid this problem in the future, follow the directions
“Turning Scratchpad Tones On and Off” on page 72 to
turn the Scratchpad tones on.
My phone was
stolen. What
should I report and
to whom?
Report a stolen phone to the police and to your service
provider (the company that sends you your monthly
cellular service bills).
I tried to place a
calling card call
using the internal
Phone Book, but it
didn’t work.
You may have turned off your Scratchpad tones. Follow
the directions in “Turning Scratchpad Tones On and Off”
on page 72 to turn the Scratchpad tones on.
Check that you stored your calling card information in
the correct order, and make sure the groups of numbers
are separated by pauses. The easiest way to correct the
sequence may be to start from scratch. Follow the
instructions on “Storing Calling Card Information” on
page 53, enter your calling card information again, and
store it in the same memory location as your previous
attempt.
Also keep in mind that when using your calling card, you
must enter the number you are calling with the area
code, but without the initial “1.” Check with your long
distance carrier for details on using your calling card.
