Safety Information
Safety and General Information
Safety Information
This section contains important information on the safe and
efficient operation of your mobile device. Read this information
before using your mobile device.
*
Exposure To Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
Your mobile device contains a transmitter and receiver. When it is ON,
it receives and transmits RF energy. When you communicate with your
mobile device, the system handling your call controls the power level at
which your mobile device transmits.
Your Motorola mobile device is designed to comply with local regulatory
requirements in your country concerning exposure of human beings to
RF energy.
Operational Precautions
For optimal mobile device performance and to be sure that human exposure
to RF energy does not exceed the guidelines set forth in the relevant
standards, always follow these instructions and precautions.
External Antenna Care
If your mobile device has an external antenna, use only a
Motorola-supplied or approved replacement antenna. Use of unauthorized
antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the mobile device
and/or may result in your device not complying with local regulatory
requirements in your country.
* The information provided in this document supersedes the general safety
information in user’s guides published prior to May 1, 2006.

9
Safety Information
DO NOT hold the external antenna when the mobile device is IN USE.
Holding the external antenna affects call quality and may cause the mobile
device to operate at a higher power level than needed.
Product Operation
When placing or receiving a phone call, hold your mobile device just like
you would a landline phone.
If you wear the mobile device on your body, always place the mobile device
in a Motorola-supplied or approved clip, holder, holster, case, or body
harness. If you do not use a body-worn accessory supplied or approved by
Motorola, keep the mobile device and its antenna at least 2.5 centimeters
(1 inch) from your body when transmitting.
When using any data feature of the mobile device, with or without an
accessory cable, position the mobile device and its antenna at least
2.5 centimeters (1 inch) from your body.
Using accessories not supplied or approved by Motorola may cause your
mobile device to exceed RF energy exposure guidelines. For a list of
Motorola-supplied or approved accessories, visit our website at
www.motorola.com .
RF Energy Interference/Compatibility
Nearly every electronic device is subject to RF energy interference from
external sources if inadequately shielded, designed, or otherwise
configured for RF energy compatibility. In some circumstances your mobile
device may cause interference with other devices.
Follow Instructions to Avoid Interference Problems
Turn off your mobile device in any location where posted notices instruct
you to do so. These locations include hospitals or health care facilities that
may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.

10
Safety Information
In an aircraft, turn off your mobile device whenever instructed to do so by
airline staff. If your mobile device offers an airplane mode or similar
feature, consult airline staff about using it in flight.
Pacemakers
If you have a pacemaker, consult your physician before using this device.
Persons with pacemakers should observe the following precautions:
• ALWAYS keep the mobile device more than 20 centimeters
(8 inches) from your pacemaker when the mobile device is
turned ON.
• DO NOT carry the mobile device in the breast pocket.
• Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential
for interference.
• Turn OFF the mobile device immediately if you have any reason to
suspect that interference is taking place.
Hearing Aids
Some digital mobile devices may interfere with some hearing aids. In the
event of such interference, you may want to consult your hearing aid
manufacturer or physician to discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult your physician or the
manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from
RF energy.
Driving Precautions
Check the laws and regulations on the use of mobile devices in the area
where you drive. Always obey them.
When using your mobile device while driving, please:

11
Safety Information
• Give full attention to driving and to the road. Using a mobile device
may be distracting. Discontinue a call if you can’t concentrate
on driving.
• Use handsfree operation, if available.
• Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if
driving conditions so require.
Responsible driving practices can be found in the “Smart Practices While
Driving” section at the end of this guide and/or at the Motorola website:
www.motorola.com/callsmart .
Operational Warnings
Obey all posted signs when using mobile devices in public areas, such as
health care facilities or blasting areas.
Automobile Air Bags
Do not place a mobile device in the air bag deployment area.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often but not always
posted, and can include fueling areas such as below decks on boats, fuel or
chemical transfer or storage facilities, or areas where the air contains
chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.
When you are in such an area, turn off your mobile device, and do not
remove, install, or charge batteries. In such areas, sparks can occur and
cause an explosion or fire.
Damaged Products
If your mobile device or battery has been submerged in water, punctured,
or subjected to a severe fall, do not use it until you take it to a Motorola
Authorized Service Center. Do not attempt to dry it with an external heat
source, such as a microwave oven.

12
Safety Information
Batteries and Chargers
If jewelry, keys, beaded chains, or other conductive materials touch
exposed battery terminals, this could complete an electrical circuit (short
circuit), become very hot, and could cause damage or injury. Be careful
when handling a charged battery, particularly when placing it inside a
pocket, purse, or other container with metal objects.
Use only
Motorola Original™ batteries and chargers.
Caution:
To avoid risk of personal injury, do not dispose of your battery in
a fire.
Your battery, charger, or mobile device may contain symbols, defined as
follows:
Symbol Definition
Important safety information
follows.

Safety Information
Choking Hazards
Your mobile device or its accessories may include detachable parts,
which may present a choking hazard to small children. Keep your mobile
device and its accessories away from small children.
Glass Parts
Some parts of your mobile device may be made of glass. This glass could
break if the product is dropped on a hard surface or receives a substantial
impact. If glass breaks, do not touch or attempt to remove. Stop using your
mobile device until the glass is replaced by a qualified service center.
Seizures/Blackouts
Some people may be susceptible to epileptic seizures or blackouts when
exposed to flashing lights, such as when playing video games. These may
occur even if a person has never had a previous seizure or blackout.
If you have experienced seizures or blackouts, or if you have a family
history of such occurrences, please consult with your physician before
playing video games or enabling a flashing-lights feature (if available) on
your mobile device.
Discontinue use and consult a physician if any of the following symptoms
occur: convulsion, eye or muscle twitching, loss of awareness, involuntary
movements, or disorientation. It is always a good idea to hold the screen
away from your eyes, leave the lights on in the room, take a 15-minute
break every hour, and stop use if you are very tired.
Caution About High Volume Usage
Listening at full volume to music or voice through a headset may
damage your hearing.

14
Safety Information
Repetitive Motion
When you repetitively perform actions such as pressing keys or entering
finger-written characters, you may experience occasional discomfort in
your hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of your body. If you
continue to have discomfort during or after such use, stop use and see
a physician.
