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.

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.

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

wireline-only 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

system is in Canada, a separate license

is required; your carrier will assist you

1_CM_Z200 6/8/98, 9:26 AM6

1.7

Safety precautions

IMPORTANT

For safe and efficient operation of

your phone, observe these

guidelines.

Your dual mode (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 mode 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. 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.

Efficient phone operation

For your phone to operate at the lowest

power level consistent with satisfactory

call quality, please observe the

following guidelines:

Your phone has an extendable antenna;

extend it fully whenever possible for

maximum efficiency.

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.

1_CM_Z200 6/8/98, 9:26 AM7

1.8

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.

Use only the supplied or approved

antenna. Unauthorized antennas,

modifications, or attachments could

impair call quality, damage the phone,

and violate FCC regulations.

Driving

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.

Medical devices

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.

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.

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.

Children

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.

1_CM_Z200 6/8/98, 9:26 AM8

1.9

Blasting areas

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.

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.

Basic Calling Operations

Turning the phone on

To use your phone, the power must be turned on.

It is preferable to extend the antenna, since this

maximizes signal strength and minimizes interference.

Extending the antenna

Hold the end of the antenna and

pull up until fully extended.

To retract the antenna

Push the antenna down until it is fully retracted.

Turning the power on

Hold down PWR for about one second. The call alert indicator lights up, a beep

sounds, and the phone starts searching for a signal. When the phone has found a

service signal, the standby display appears and the call alert indicator goes off. Now

the phone is ready to use.

To check the digital service

The digital service icon ( ) appears when your phone is operating in digital or

CDMA mode. If a digital signal is not available, your phone will look for a cellular

or analog signal. Some networks may allow you to force your phone to operate in

analog mode (see “Forcing the phone into analog mode” on page XX).

To check the signal strength

The signal strength icon indicates various levels of signal strength. It is best to make

calls when the signal is strong, although calls can be made when the signal strength

is weak.

If you are out of the service area

The out-of-service icon ( ) appears, and the phone searches for a service signal. If a

signal cannot be found, the phone enters power save mode. It will “wake up”

automatically at intervals (based on carrier network settings) to search for a service

signal.

Turning the power off

Hold down PWR for about one second.

To enter a hyphen, pause, or link

In addition to digits, you can insert hyphens, time pauses, hard pauses, and links

into the phone number of a Phone Book entry. (See page 36 for information on

the US/Canada standard. Autohyphenation will be turned off for that number.

Pauses: A time pause (T) sends additional digits about two seconds after a call is

connected. A hard pause (H) allows you to send additional digits after a call is

connected. For example, you may want to enter a phone number in your Phone

Book as follows: 1-800-555-1212H123. The hard pause character in the phone

number allows you to dial the extension 123 after you have reached 1-800-555-1212.

Links: You can join two or more Phone Book entries (for example, a doctor’s phone

number and your medical record number). Once you have specified the first entry,
