Rules and regulations
The U.S. Federal Communications
Commission and the Industry
Canada regulate cellular/PCS
telephone service in their
respective countries. It is important
for you, the cellular/PCS telephone
user, to observe the applicable
regulations when operating your
cellular/PCS telephone in either
country. In addition to these U.S.
and Canadian federal regulations,
you may be bound also by certain
state, provincial, territorial, and
local rules and regulations, as well
as by your cellular/PCS carrier’s
tariff (the rates, terms, and
conditions of its service). If you
wish to use your cellular/PCS
telephone in both the U.S. and
Canada, please consult with your
System Operator.
Furthermore, you should
remember that your cellular/PCS
telephone is a radiotelephone, — i.e.,
it combines both wireline
technology, as used in your home
or office telephone system, and
radio technology — and that the
scope of regulations and
precautions is therefore broader
than the scope of regulations and
precautions relating to wirelineonly telephone usage.
Some of the major points of
consideration are set out below.
Please note, however, that these
“Rules and Regulations” and
“Safety Precautions” sections do
not constitute legal advice, and are
intended merely for general
information purposes. If you have
specific questions, please contact
your cellular/PCS carrier (System
Operator).
License — If your home system is
in the U.S., you do not require a
separate license to operate your
cellular/PCS telephone; obtaining
a cellular/PCS telephone access
number is sufficient to register you
as a user. If your home system is in
Canada, a separate license is
required; your carrier will assist
you in the licensing process. If you
wish to use your cellular/PCS
telephone on both sides of the
border, please contact your
cellular/PCS carrier (System
Operator).
Equipment modifications — The
U.S. Federal Communications
Commission has type-approved the
model of cellular/PCS telephone
which you have purchased, and
has allocated a specific frequency
range for cellular/PCS service. No
changes or adjustments are to be
made to your cellular/PCS
telephone.
The radio equipment shall be made
available for inspection upon
request by representatives of the
FCC or licensees.
Denial of service — A cellular/
PCS carrier may deny service
temporarily or terminate service for
violation of any government
regulations or violation of its tariff.
B2200 01-09draft3
8/21/98, 12:11 PM
Privacy — As a telephone user, you
have come to assume a certain
standard of privacy when you
place or receive a telephone call via
the traditional wireline systems.
However, because cellular/PCS
telephones utilize radio
transmissions to effect calls, the
same standard cannot always be
assured. While it is unlawful for
any unauthorized person to
divulge or use any information
obtained from intercepting or
“listening in on” conversations
intended for others, you should not
assume that your conversation is
completely secure. Commercially
available scanning equipment can
permit a third party to monitor the
radio channels used for cellular/
PCS telephone calls.
Interference — No person shall
interfere with, or cause interference
to, any radio communication or
signal.
B2200 01-09draft3

Safety precautions
IMPORTANT
For safe and efficient
operation of your phone,
observe these guidelines.
Your dual band (analog/digital
CDMA) hand-held portable
cellular/PCS telephone uses both
analog frequency modulation (FM)
technology and digital Code
Division Multiple Access (CDMA)
technology. CDMA is a newer
radio frequency (RF) technology
than the FM technology that has
been used for radio
communications for decades.
Your dual band portable cellular/
PCS telephone is a radio
transmitter and receiver. When the
phone is ON, it receives and sends
out radio frequency (RF) energy.
The phone operates in the
frequency range of 824 MHz to 894
MHz in analog mode, and 1851
MHz to 1989 MHz in digital
CDMA mode. When you use your
phone, the cellular/PCS system
handling your call controls the
mode of operation (analog or
digital CDMA) and the power level
at which your phone transmits. In
the analog mode, the power is
continuously transmitted at a level
that can range from about 6 mW to
about 600 mW. In the digital
CDMA mode, the power is
transmitted as a digitally coded
waveform at a rate varying from
100 Hz to 800 Hz. The average
power can range from about 0.01
µW to about 300 mW.
Exposure to radio
frequency energy
Research on health effects from RF
energy has focused for many years
on FM radio technology. That
research and studies regarding
newer radio technologies, such as
CDMA, have found no credible
scientific evidence that adverse
health effects result from the use of
cellular/PCS telephones.
The Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers (IEEE) in
1991, and The American National
Standards Institute (ANSI) in 1992,
updated the 1982 ANSI Standard
for safety levels with respect to
human exposure to RF energy.
Over 120 scientists, engineers, and
physicians from universities,
government health agencies, and
industry, reviewed the available
research and developed this
updated Standard. In March 1993,
the U.S. Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) proposed the
adoption of this updated Standard.
The design of your phone complies
with this updated Standard. Of
course, if you want to limit RF
exposure even further than the
updated ANSI Standard, you may
choose to control the duration of
your calls and operate your phone
in the most power efficient manner.
B2200 01-09draft3
8/21/98, 12:11 PM
For your phone to operate at the
lowest power level consistent with
satisfactory call quality, please
observe the following guidelines:
Use only the supplied or approved
antenna. Unauthorized antennas,
modifications, or attachments
could impair call quality, damage
the phone, and violate FCC
regulations.
Your phone has an extendable
antenna; extend it fully whenever
possible for maximum efficiency.
Driving
Efficient phone operation
Hold the phone as you would any
other telephone. While speaking
directly into the mouthpiece,
position the antenna up and over
your shoulder.
Do not hold the antenna when the
phone is in use. Holding the
antenna affects call quality and
may cause the phone to operate at
a higher power level than needed.
Heat and sunlight
exposure
Avoid leaving your cellular/PCS
phone exposed to direct sunlight or
extreme heat. Extended exposure
to heat and sunlight may damage
the components of your cellular/
PCS phone.
Antenna care and
replacement
Do not use the phone with a
damaged antenna. If a damaged
antenna comes into contact with
the skin, a minor burn may result.
Replace a damaged antenna
immediately. Take your phone to
an authorized service center for
repair.
Check the laws and regulations on
the use of cellular/PCS telephones
in the areas where you drive.
Always obey them. Also, when
using your phone while driving,
please:
• pay full attention to driving;
• use hands-free operation, if
available;
• 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 energy.
However, RF energy from cellular/
PCS telephones may affect some
electronic equipment.
RF energy may affect improperly
installed or inadequately shielded
electronic operating and
entertainment systems in motor
vehicles. Check with the
manufacturer or its representative
to determine if these systems are
adequately shielded from external
RF energy. You should also check
with the manufacturer of any
equipment that has been added to
your vehicle.
B2200 01-09draft3
8/21/98, 12:11 PM
Medical devices
Children
Consult the manufacturer of any
personal medical devices (such as
pacemakers, hearing aids, etc.) to
determine if they are adequately
shielded from external RF energy.
Your physician may be able to
assist you in obtaining this
information.
Do not allow children to play with
your phone. It is not a toy.
Children could hurt themselves or
others (by poking themselves or
others in the eye with the antenna,
for example). Children also could
damage the phone or make calls
that increase your telephone bill.
Turn your phone OFF in health
care facilities when regulations
posted in the areas instruct you to
do so. Hospitals or health care
facilities may be using equipment
that could be sensitive to external
RF energy.
Blasting areas
Aircraft
Turn your phone OFF before
boarding any aircraft.
• Use it on the ground only with
crew permission.
• Do not use in the air.
To prevent possible interference
with aircraft systems, U.S. Federal
Aviation Administration (FAA)
regulations require you to have
permission from a crew member to
use your phone while the plane is
on the ground. To prevent
interference with aircraft
communication systems, FCC
regulations prohibit using your
phone while the plane is in the air.
To avoid interfering with blasting
operations, turn your unit OFF
when in a “blasting area” or in
areas posted: “Turn off two-way
radio.” Construction crews often
use remote control RF devices to
set off explosives.
Potentially explosive
atmospheres
Turn your phone OFF when in any
area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere. It is rare, but your
phone or its accessories could
generate sparks. Sparks 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 gas
stations; below deck on boats; fuel
or chemical transfer or storage
facilities; 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’s engine.
B2200 01-09draft3
8/21/98, 12:11 PM
Do not transport or store
flammable gas, liquid, or
explosives in the compartment of
your vehicle which contains your
phone or accessories.
In the United States, vehicles using
liquefied petroleum gas (such as
propane or butane) must comply
with the National Fire Protection
Standard (NFPA-58). For a copy of
this standard, contact the National
Fire Protection Association, One
Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA
02269, Attn: Publication Sales
Division.
In Canada, vehicles using liquefied
petroleum gas (such as propane or
butane) must comply with the
Canadian Gas Association (CAN/
CGS-B149.2). For a copy of this
standard, contact the Canadian
Standards Association, 178 Rexdale
Blvd., Etobicoke, ON M9W 1R3,
Attn.: Standard Sales Department.

Using the Short Messaging Service
This section contains information on the Short Messaging Service (SMS).
This feature may allow you receive “text” messages as long as there are
enough memory locations available.
Contact your service provider to see if this service is available in your area.
Receiving messages
To receive messages, the phone must be turned on. The phone supports
three types of messages: “MESSAGE” indicates a text message; “PAGE”
typically contains only digits; “VOICE MAIL” is a voice mail notification
and indicates the number of new voice mail messages stored in your
voice mailbox.
When you receive a message
The message icon ( ) appears on the display accompanied by audible
alerts. The first line indicates message type and priority. If the message is
urgent, the message type is surrounded by asterisks (*) and followed by
an exclamation mark (!). If you press any key, this display disappears.
The message icon ( ) remains displayed as long as there are unread
messages.
Tip
Checking message storage capacity
Voice mail messages
Voice mail messages are stored remotely by your service provider. Your
phone will simply notify you if you have any voice mail messages.
Check with your service provider to find out the maximum number and
length of voice mail messages that can be stored.
Text messages and pages
A text message must contain at least one character and can be up to 200
characters long. The number of messages that can be stored depends on
the size of the messages. You can store approximately 7 large messages
or 22 small messages.
WARNING
When you receive a new message and your phone does not have enough
memory to store it, the phone automatically erases old messages that are
not locked.

receive service from that carrier.
Also see “Roam”.
In addition to the general
emergency number (911 for the
USA and Canada), three phone
numbers can be stored as
emergency numbers in your
telephone. You can dial these
numbers and 911 even when the
phone is locked.
Home area
The area of the home system to
which you subscribe.

NAM
A feature that allows you to lock
the phone’s keypad for low level
security.
Number Assignment Module.
Portion of your telephone’s
memory programmed to contain
information about your
subscription to the carrier. Your
telephone can have up to two
NAM’s.
Lock
Prevents unauthorized calls by
requiring the user to enter a code
to use the phone. Even if the
phone is locked, you can call any
of the emergency numbers or
answer incoming calls.
Memory
A storage area for names and
phone numbers. Also see “Phone
Book”.
Menu
The menu allows you to change
or see the settings of your phone.
You can access it from the
standby display or during a call.
See “List of menu items” on page
86 for an overview of this feature.
Pause
You can insert a Time Pause or
Hard Pause in the phone number
memory data. A pause causes the
phone to wait (either for a
specified time or until manually
released) before sending a second
string of digits, ensuring your
counterpart (e.g., answering
machine, voice mail system,
electronic banking system, etc.) is
ready to accept the string.
Phone Book
Minute alert
You can store up to 99 numbers
in Phone Book memory, location
number 01 to number 99. An
additional recent number
memory (Calls List) stores the
last ten used phone numbers.
This alert beeps periodically
during a call to help you keep
track of the length of the call.
Multiple NAM registration
Registering your phone in more
than one carrier. A cheaper
alternative to roaming. If you
travel frequently to a specific area,
registering the local carrier in
your phone’s NAM’s may be an
economical alternative to roaming
and long distance charges.
Roam
Your phone is roaming when you
use it outside of the home area.
Availability of roaming access to
a different carrier and types of
calls you can make varies with the
agreement between your home
carrier and serving carrier. Check
with your carrier for details about
roaming in a specific area.
