Approved Accessories
For a list of approved Motorola accessories call 1-800-453-0920, or visit our 
website at www.mot.com/iden, or look in the accessory section of this manual.
ALL MODELS WITH FCC ID AZ489FT5818 MEET THE GOVERNMENT’S
REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to
exceed the emission limits for exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the Federal
Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive
guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines
are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through
periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety
margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.
* Tests for SAR are
conducted using standard operating positions reviewed by the FCC with the phone transmitting at
its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at
the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be well
below the maximum value. This is because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power
levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a
wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC
that is does not exceed the limit established by the government-adopted requirement for safe
exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body)
as required by the FCC for each model. The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested
for use at the ear is 1.4 W/kg and when tested on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.419
W/kg during voice transmission using Phone Mode and 0.776 W/kg during packet data
transmission. (Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available
accessories and FCC requirements.) While there may be differences between the SAR levels of
various phones and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement for safe
exposure.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR
levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this
model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://
www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID: AZ489FT5818.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular
Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) web-site at http://www.wow-com.com.
______________________________________
*  In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 
watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin 
of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in 
measurements.

Electro Magnetic Interference/Compatibility
NOTE: Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic 
interference (EMI) if inadequately shielded, designed or 
otherwise configured for electromagnetic compatibility.
Facilities
To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility conflicts, turn off 
your radio product 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.
Aircraft
When instructed to do so, turn off your radio product when on board an aircraft. 
Any use of a radio product must be in accordance with applicable regulations 
per airline crew instructions.
Medical Devices
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum 
separation of 6 inches (15 cm) be maintained between a handheld wireless radio 
product and a pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with those of 
the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
Persons with pacemakers should:
ALWAYS keep the radio product more than 6 inches (15 cm) from their 
pacemaker when the radio product is turned ON. 
Not carry the radio product in a breast pocket. 
Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for 
interference. 
Turn the radio product OFF immediately if you have any reason to suspect 
that interference is taking place. 
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless radio products 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 RF energy. Your physician 
may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.

Operational Warnings
For Vehicles with an Air Bag
Do not place a portable radio product in the area over the air bag or in the 
air bag deployment area. Air bags inflate with great force. If a portable 
radio is placed in the air bag deployment area and the air bag inflates, the 
radio product may be propelled with great force and cause serious injury to 
occupants of the vehicle. 
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn off your radio product prior to entering any area with a potentially 
explosive atmosphere, unless it is a radio product type especially qualified 
for use in such areas as “Intrinsically Safe” (for example, Factory Mutual, 
CSA, or UL approved). 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 injury 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 particles, 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.
Blasting Caps and Areas
To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn off your radio 
product 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 Cautions
Cleaning and Drying Considerations
Using a leather carry case may help protect the surfaces and help prevent liquids 
(e.g., rain) from entering into the interior of the radio product. This product is 
not water proof, and exposing the unit to liquids may result in permanent 
damage to the unit.
If your radio product interior gets wet, then do not try to accelerate drying with 
the use of an oven or a dryer as this will damage the radio product and void the 
warranty. Instead, do the following:
1. Immediately power off the radio product.
2. Remove Battery and SIM card (if so equipped) from radio product.
3. Shake excess liquid from radio product.
4. Place the radio product and battery in an area that is at room temperature 
and has good air flow.
Operational Cautions
Antennas
Do not use any portable radio product that has a damaged antenna. If 
a damaged antenna comes into contact with your skin, a minor burn can 
result.
Batteries
All batteries can cause property 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 (short 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.
