SAFETY AND GENERAL INFORMATIONii
PORTABLE PHONE OPERATION AND EME
EXPOSURE
Antenna Care
Use 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 Operation
When placing or receiving a phone call, hold your phone as you
would a wireline telephone. Speak directly into the microphone.
Body-worn Operation
To 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 a body-worn
accessory, and are not using the phone held in the normal
use position at the ear, ensure the phone and its antenna are
at least one inch (2.5 cm) from your body when transmitting.
Data Operation
When 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 cm) from the body.

SAFETY AND GENERAL INFORMATION iii
T191
ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE/COM-
PATIBILITY
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 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.
AIRCRAFT
When 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 DEVICES
Pacemakers
The Advanced Medical Technology Association recommends that a
minimum separation of 6 inches (15 centimeters) be 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 their 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 the phone OFF immediately if you have any reason to
suspect that interference is taking place.
Hearing Aids
Some 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.

SAFETY AND GENERAL INFORMATIONiv
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.
SAFETY AND GENERAL
USE WHILE DRIVING
Check the laws and regulations on the use of phones in the area
where you drive. Always obey them
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 WARNINGS
FOR VEHICLES WITH AN AIR BAG
Do not place a portable 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 it is a phone type especially qualified
for use in such areas as "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 injury or
even death.
SafetyInfo.fm Page iv Friday, April 19, 2002 2:27 PM

SAFETY AND GENERAL INFORMATION v
T191
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
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 CAUTIONS
ANTENNAS
Do 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.
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 touch 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.
