Spare Battery and Headset
One nickel metal hydride battery pack, which provides up to 3 hours of talk time, comes
with your MDW 9030P Pocketphone.  For extended phone usage, you should purchase an
additional battery pack.  You can store the extra battery pack in the Spare battery compart-
ment of the battery charger. Then when the battery pack in the handset is low, you can
switch battery packs.
To help you answer calls, an optional Supra® 9030 headset can be attached to the connec-
tor on the bottom of the handset to allow hands-free conversation.  For instructions for
connecting the headset, see Using a Headset in Chapter 3.
For ordering information, see Ordering Replacement & Optional Parts in Chapter 4.

Important Safety Instructions
This book contains instructions related to safety labels on the product:
!The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the
user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing)
instructions in the literature accompanying the product.
!WARNING indicates the presence of a hazard that can cause severe or fatal
personal injury if the hazard is not avoided.
!CAUTION indicates the presence of a hazard that will or can cause minor
personal injury or property damage if not avoided.
This phone is designed to provide trouble-free performance without any special mainte-
nance procedures. To reduce the risk of accidental damage:
nKeep the phone in an area free of dust, smoke, and moisture; do not block the air
vents by placing objects on top of the radio module.
nDo not place the phone or battery charger near a heating duct, radiator, or other heat
source, and do not drop or expose it to excessive shock or vibration.
nUnplug the battery charger, radio module, or carrier if its power cord is damaged, if
liquid is spilled into it, or if its housing becomes cracked or otherwise damaged.
nTo clean your phone, wipe the outside housing with a soft, dust-free cloth. If absolutely
necessary, you may use a cloth 
slightly dampened with a mild soap and water solu-
tion. Dry quickly with a soft cloth.
CAUTION:
Your phone contains sensitive electronic parts. Never submerge it in any kind of
liquid, and never use liquid or aerosol cleaners, detergents, alcohols, solvents,
abrasive cleaners, or an excessive amount of water when cleaning the housing and
faceplate. To do so could result in irreparable damage.

Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Operation Guidelines for Safe and Efficient OperationGuidelines for Safe and Efficient Operation Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Operation
Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Operation
Your wireless telephone is a radio transmitter and receiver.  When the phone is turned on,
it receives and sends out radio frequency (RF) energy.  The phone operates in the fre-
quency range of 902–928 MHz.  Your hand-held wireless telephone uses the digital TDD
mode.  The power is transmitted in bursts at a 200 Hz pulsed repetition rate.  The peak
envelope transmit power is 325 mW or less.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy Exposure to Radio Frequency EnergyExposure to Radio Frequency Energy Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy
Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy
The design of your wireless telephone complies with the latest Institute of Electrical and
Electronic Engineers (IEEE) and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) safety
levels with respect to human exposure to RF energy.  Of course, if you would like to limit
RF exposure even further, you may choose to control the duration of your calls.
Cardiac Pacemakers Cardiac PacemakersCardiac Pacemakers Cardiac Pacemakers
Cardiac Pacemakers
CAUTION:
The MDW 9030P handset is a radio device and, like all radio devices, should not
be placed next to a pacemaker.
Preliminary studies performed at the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and else-
where have shown that when digital cellular telephones are placed very close to im-
planted cardiac pacemakers, interference with the operation of the implanted pacemaker
can occur.  These preliminary studies show that interference does not occur when there is
a reasonable distance between the telephone and the implanted pacemaker and stops
when the phone is turned off or moved so that it is more than 6 inches (15 cm) from the
pacemaker.  Digital cellular telephones operate at .6 W.  TransTalk wireless telephones
operate at a lower peak power of 325 mW or less (100 mW, on an average).
Until more is known, the FDA suggests that people with pacemakers may want to take
some simple precautions when using or carrying digital wireless telephones to ensure that
there is ample distance between the digital wireless thelephone and the pacemaker—by
not placing the phone next to the pacemaker implant (for example, in a shirt or a coat
pocket directly over the pacemaker implant) when the phone is on and ready to receive a
call and holding it to the ear opposite the side of the body where the pacemaker is
implanted when using the phone.  Consult your physician or medical device manufacturer
to determine if additional precautions are necessary.
Hearing Aid Compatibility Hearing Aid CompatibilityHearing Aid Compatibility Hearing Aid Compatibility
Hearing Aid Compatibility
Most electronic equipment, such as equipment in hospitals is shielded from RF energy.
However RF energy from wireless telephones may affect some electronic equipment.
Although the TransTalk wireless telephone is compatible with inductively-coupled hearing
aids, you should consult your physician or hearing aid manufacturer to determine if your
hearing aid is adequately shielded from external RF energy.  The operation of inad-
equately shielded medical devices may be adversely affected when a portable wireless
telephone is operating in close proximity.

modular wall jack or communications system switch/control unit, and refer servicing to
qualified service personnel under the following conditions:
– When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed.
– If the product does not operate normally by following the operating instructions.
Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions because
improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require
extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the product to normal operation.
– If the product has been dropped and the housing has been damaged.
nThis product should be serviced by (or taken to) a qualified service center when service
or repair work is required. Do not open the product, there are no user-serviceable
