11Safety and General Information Safety and General InformationIMPORTANT INFORMATION ON SAFE AND EFFICIENT OPERATION. READ THIS INFORMATION BEFORE USING YOUR PHONE. The information provided in this document supersedes the general safety information contained in user guides published prior to July 2000. For information regarding radio use in a hazardous atmosphere please refer to the Factory Mutual (FM) Approval Manual Supplement or Instruction Card, which is included with radio models that offer this capability. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.RF Operational CharacteristicsYour phone contains a transmitter and a receiver. When it is ON, it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF) energy. The phone operates in the frequency range of 824 MHz to 849 MHz in analog and digital mode and 1850 MHz to 1910 MHz in digital mode. When you communicate with your phone, the system handling your call controls the power levels at which your phone transmits. The output power level typically may vary over a 12Safety and General Information range from 0.00 watts to 0.35 watts in analog mode and 0.00 watts to 0.56 watts in digital mode.Exposure To Radio Frequency EnergyYour Motorola phone is designed to comply with the following national and international standards and guidelines regarding exposure of human beings to radio frequency electromagnetic energy: •United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of Regulations; 47 CFR par t 2 sub-part J •American National Standards Institute (ANSI) / Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95. 1-1992 •Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-1999 Edition •National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) of the United States, Report 86, 1986 •International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1998 •Ministry of Health (Canada) Safety Code 6. Limits of Human Exposure to Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields in the Frequency Range from 3 kHz to 300 GHz, 1999 •Australian Communications Authority Radiocommunications (Electromagnetic Radiation-Human Exposure) Standard 1999 To assure optimal phone performance and make sure human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy is within
13Safety and General Information the guidelines set forth in the above standards, always adhere to the following procedures:Portable Phone Operation and EME ExposureAntenna CareUse only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the phone and may violate FCC regulations. 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.Phone OperationWhen placing or receiving a phone call, hold your phone as you would a wireline telephone. Speak directly into the microphone.Body-Worn OperationTo maintain compliance with FCC/Health Canada RF exposure guidelines, if you wear a phone on your body when transmitting, always place the phone in a Motorola-supplied or approved clip, holder, holster, case, or body harness for this product. Use of non-Motorola-approved accessories may exceed FCC/Health Canada RF exposure guidelines. If you do not use one of the Motorola-supplied or approved body-worn accessories, and are not using the phone held in the normal use position, ensure the phone and its antenna are at least one inch (2.5 centimeters) from your body when transmitting. 14Safety and General Information Data OperationWhen using any data feature of the phone, with or without an accessory cable, position the phone and its antenna at least one inch (2.5 centimeters) from your body.Approved AccessoriesFor a list of approved Motorola accessories, visit our website at www.mot.com . Electromagnetic Interference/CompatibilityNote: Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if inadequately shielded, designed, or otherwise configured for electromagnetic compatibility. FacilitiesTo avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility conflicts, turn off your phone in any facility where posted notices instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy. AircraftWhen instructed to do so, turn off your phone when on board an aircraft. Any use of a phone must be in accordance with applicable regulations per airline crew instructions.Medical DevicesPacemakersThe Advanced Medical Technology Association recommends that a minimum separation of 6 inches (15 centimeters) be
15Safety and General Information maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by, and recommendations of, the United States Food and Drug Administration. Persons with pacemakers should: •ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches (15 centimeters) from your pacemaker when the phone is turned ON. •NOT carry the phone in the breast pocket. •use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference. •turn OFF the phone immediately if you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place.Hearing AidsSome 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 DevicesIf you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.Safety and General Use While DrivingCheck the laws and regulations on the use of phones in the area where you drive. Always obey them. 16Safety and General Information When using your phone while driving, please: •give full attention to driving and to the road. •use hands-free operation, if available. •pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require.Operational WarningsFor Vehicles With an Air BagDo not place a por table phone in the area over an air bag or in the air bag deployment area. Air bags inflate with great force. If a portable phone is placed in the air bag deployment area and the air bag inflates, the phone may be propelled with great force and cause serious injury to occupants of the vehicle. Potentially Explosive Atmospheres Turn off your phone prior to entering any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, unless the phone is a model specifically identified as being “Intrinsically Safe.” Do not remove, install, or charge batteries in such areas. Sparks in a potentially explosive atmosphere can cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injur y or even death. Note: The areas with potentially explosive atmospheres referred to above include fueling areas such as below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where the air contains chemicals or par ticles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders, and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine. Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often but not always posted.
17Safety and General Information Blasting Caps and AreasTo avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn OFF your phone when you are near electrical blasting caps, in a blasting area, or in areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio.” Obey all signs and instructions.Operational CautionsAntennasDo not use any portable phone that has a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with your skin, a minor burn can result.BatteriesAll batteries can cause proper ty damage and/or bodily injury such as burns if a conductive material such as jewelry, keys, or beaded chains touches exposed terminals. The conductive material may complete an electrical circuit (shor t circuit) and become quite hot. Exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when placing it inside a pocket, purse, or other container with metal objects.ITC01-101 18Getting Started Getting StartedWhat’s in the Box?Your wireless phone typically comes equipped with a battery and a charger.
