Wireless Phone Safety Tips
“Safety is your most important call!”
Your Motorola wireless telephone gives you the powerful ability to
communicate by voice--almost anywhere, anytime, wherever wireless phone
service is available and safe conditions allow. But an important responsibility
accompanies that benefits of wireless phones, one that every user must uphold.
When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility. If you find it necessary to
use your wireless phone while behind the wheel of a car, practice good common
sense and remember the following tips:
1. Get to know your Motorola wireless phone and its features such as speed
dial and redial. If available, these features help you to place your call with-
out taking your attention off the road.
2. When available, use a hands-free device. If possible, add an additional
layer of convenience to your wireless phone with one of the many Motor-
ola Original hands-free accessories available today.
3. Position your wireless phone within easy reach. Be able to access your
wireless phone without removing your eyes from the road. If you receive
an incoming call at an inconvenient time, if possible, let your voice mail
answer it for you.
4. Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving; if necessary,
suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions. Rain,
sleet, snow, ice, and even heavy traffic can be hazardous.
5. If you receive an incoming call at an inconvenient time do not take notes or
look up phone numbers while driving. Jotting down a “to do”list or going
through your address book takes attention away from your primary respon-
sibility--driving safely.
6. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when you are not
moving or before pulling into traffic. Try to plan calls when your car will
be stationary. If you need to make a call while moving, dial only a few
numbers, check the road and your mirrors, then continue.
7. Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may be distract-
ing. Make people you are talking with aware you are driving and suspend
conversations which have the potential to divert your attention away from
the road.
8. Use your wireless phone to call for help. Dial 9-1-1 or other local emer-
gency number in the case of fire, traffic accident or medical emergencies.*
9. Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. If you see an auto
accident, crime in progress or other serious emergency where lives are in
danger, call 9-1-1 or other local emergency number, as you would want
others to do for you.*
* Wherever wireless phone service is available.

Wireless Phone Safety Tips

10. Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency wireless assistance
number when necessary. If you see a broken-down vehicle posing no seri-
ous hazard, a broken traffic signal, a minor traffic accident where no one
appears injured, or a vehicle you know to be stolen, call roadside assistance
or other special non-emergency wireless number.*
* Wherever wireless phone service is available.

ongratulations on purchasing your Motorola iDEN i2000plus
multi-service, data-capable, digital, portable global phone. The
use of two state-of-the-art technologies, iDEN and GSM (Global
System for Mobile communications), provides worldwide services to
keep you in touch with your business and personal contacts when you

bank cards with PINs, you can safeguard your SIM card with a PIN.
Exciting new features include a vibration-only key, call barring, and a
missed-call indicator to help provide efficient operation of your
i2000plus phone. And, new ease-of-dialing features, such as Turbo
Dial®key and the Last Ten Received and Sent lists, as well as stored
names and numbers, help you to quickly make and return phone calls.
Your i2000plus phone offers:
•Phone Mode - for cellular phone operation. See Page 27.
•Private Mode - for two-way radio use to talk with one person in
your iDEN service area. See Page 55.
•Group Mode - for two-way radio use to talk with several people in
your iDEN service area. See Page 59.
•Messaging Services*- for message and voice mail. Page 61
•Net Mode*- for accessing the built-in mini-browser. See the Net
Mode User’s Guide.
•Fax and Data Transfer*- for circuit data faxes and file transfers.
See “Using Your Phone as a Modem”on page 65.
See the Wireless Data Services User’s Guide for information about data
calls and TTY access.
* Network dependent feature. Not available in all areas.
NOTE •Some features of your i2000plus phone are available only in
the iDEN service area, and are indicated as such in this
guide.
•This guide describes the features of the i2000plus phone as
they were set up by Motorola. However, your carrier or your
