Safety and General  
Information  
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON SAFE AND EFFICIENT  
OPERATION. READ THIS INFORMATION BEFORE USING YOUR  
PHONE.  
RF Operational Characteristics  
Your 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 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 range  
from 0.0 watts to 0.89 watts in digital mode.  
ExposureTo Radio Frequency Energy  
Your 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 (EME):  
• United States Federal Communications Commission, Code  
of Regulations; 47 CFR part 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  
12  
 
Safety and General Information  
• 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 the  
guidelines set forth in the above standards, always adhere to the  
following procedures:  
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.  
13  
Safety and General Information  
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 holding the  
phone in the normal use position at the ear, ensure the  
phone and its antenna are at least one inch  
(2.5 centimeters) 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 centimeters) from your body.

Safety and General Information  
Electromagnetic 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 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.  
15  
Safety and General Information  
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 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.  
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  
UseWhile 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.  
16  
Safety and General Information  
• 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  
ForVehiclesWith an Air Bag

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  
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.

Safety and General Information  
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 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.

Battery Use

To maximize your battery’s performance:  
• Always use Motorola Original™ batteries and battery  
chargers. The phone warranty does not cover damage  
31  
             
About Your Phone  
caused from using non-Motorola batteries and/or battery  
chargers.  
• New batteries or batteries that have been stored for long  
periods of time may require a longer charge time.  
• Maintain the battery at or near room temperature when  
charging.  
• Do not expose batteries to temperatures below -10°C  
(14°F) or above 45°C (113°F).Always take your phone with  
you when you leave your vehicle.  
• When you do not intend to use a battery for a while, store it  
uncharged in a cool, dark, dry place, such as a refrigerator.  
• Over extended periods of time, batteries gradually wear  
down and require longer charging times. This is normal. If  
you charge your battery regularly and notice a decrease in  
talk time or an increase in charging time, then it is probably  
time to purchase a new battery.  
• The more you talk on the phone or use phone features (like  
sending text messages), the less standby time your battery  
has.  
The rechargeable batteries that power this product  
must be disposed of properly and may need to be  
recycled. Refer to your battery’s label for battery type.  
Contact your local recycling center for proper disposal methods.  
Never dispose of batteries in a fire because they may explode.

received and dialed, even if the calls did not connect. The lists  
are sorted from newest to oldest entries. The oldest entries are

not. You can call, store, or delete the numbers on these lists.

Playing a Game  
Blackjack  
In this classic Las Vegas card game, you play against the dealer  
to see who can get closer to 21 points without going over.  
Rules of the game  
• With each new hand, the first card is dealt to the dealer.  
The dealer’s cards are shown at the top of the display, and  
your cards are shown at the bottom.  
• All face cards count as 10 points.  
• All number cards count as the points shown on their face.  
• An Ace counts as 11 points, unless that would put you over  
21 points. Otherwise, an Ace is counted as 1 point. An Ace  
that was originally counted as 11 may later be counted as 1  
point if it will bring your points under or equal to 21 points.  
• An initial deal of an Ace and a card with a face value of 10  
points counts as exactly 21 points or Blackjack.

Games  
• Blackjack automatically wins against any other hand that  
totals 21 points.  
• If you score more than 21 points, you go “bust” or lose.  
• If you get five cards without going bust, you win.  
• If you and the dealer have the same score, the dealer wins.  
• You can ask for a “hit” or another card as long as you do  
not go bust.  
• As long as the dealer’s total is less than 17 points, the  
dealer must continue to take a hit.  
How to Play  
When the game begins, you are dealt two cards. Based on their  
total face value, you can:

Your goal is to guess a secret four-symbol code. You play by  
entering symbols into four spaces and then submitting a guess.  
Rules of the Game  
• Your score is the number of guesses it takes to reveal the  
secret code.  
• When you submit a guess, you are given clues that indicate  
how many symbols you have identified correctly and how  
many are in the correct position. The position of the clues  
does not correspond to the location of the symbols.  
= correct symbol in correct position  
= correct symbol in wrong position  
• You can see a history of your last 10 guesses.  
• Once you enter a symbol into a blank space, you can  
change the symbol but you cannot make the space blank  
again.  
• When you correctly guess the four-symbol code, the display  
shows your score and the level of your next game.  
• After you win one game, you progress from level 1 to level  
2.  
• After you win two more games, you progress from level 2 to  
level 3.  
• When you exit the game or turn off the phone, you begin  
again at level 1.

Assigning a New Code or Password  
Your phone’s four-digit unlock code is originally set to 1234, and  
the six-digit security code is originally set to 000000 at the  
factory. Your service provider may reset these numbers before  
you receive your phone.  
If your service provider has not reset these numbers, we  
recommend that you change them to prevent other users from  
accessing your personal information or modifying your phone  
settings. The unlock code must contain four digits, and the  
security code must contain six digits. Be sure to make a note of  
the new numbers.  
Notes:  
• Your service provider may retain your phone’s security code  
for customer service purposes. In this case, you will not be  
able to use phone features that require you to enter the  
security code (such as master clear, master reset, and the  
unlock code bypass feature).  
• If the only password you can change is the unlock code, the  
New Passwordsmenu is unavailable and the Unlock Code  
option appears on the Phone Lockmenu. In this case, open

Specific Absorption Rate  
Data  
This model phone meets 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 limits for exposure to  
radio frequency (RF) energy set by the U.S. Federal  
Communications Commission for the United States and by  
Health Canada for Canada. 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 or 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 and by Health Canada is 1.6  
1
W/kg. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating  
positions accepted by the FCC and by Industry Canada 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.  
177  
 
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 in the  
U.S. and Canada, it must be tested and certified to the FCC and  
Industry Canada that it does not exceed the limit established by  
each government for safe exposure. The tests are performed in  
positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body)  
reported to the FCC and available for review by Industry Canada.  
The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for use  
2
at the ear is 0.77 W/kg , and when worn on the body, as  
2
described in this user guide, is 0.56 W/kg. (Body-worn  
measurements differ among phone models, depending upon  
available accessories and regulatory requirements). While there  
may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones  
and at various positions, they all meet the governmental  
requirements for safe exposure.  
The FCC and Industry Canada have granted an Equipment  
Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels  
evaluated as being in compliance with the FCC and Health  
Canada 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 IHDT6BC1. You may also refer to  
Motorola’s Web site:

Association (CTIA) Web site:

or the Canadian Wireless Telecommunications Association  
(CWTA) Web site:

1. 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.

The U.S. Food and Drug  
Administration's Center for Devices  
and Radiological Health Consumer  
Update on Mobile PhonesAdditional Health and Safety Information  
FDA has been receiving inquiries about the safety of mobile  
phones, including cellular phones and PCS phones.The following  
summarizes what is known—and what remains unknown—  
about whether these products can pose a hazard to health, and  
what can be done to minimize any potential risk. This  
information may be used to respond to questions.  
Why the concern?  
Mobile phones emit low levels of radio frequency energy (i.e.,  
radio frequency radiation) in the microwave range while being  
used. They also emit very low levels of radio frequency energy  
(RF), considered non-significant, when in the stand-by mode. It  
is well known that high levels of RF can produce biological  
damage through heating effects (this is how your microwave  
oven is able to cook food). However, it is not known whether, to  
what extent, or through what mechanism, lower levels of RF  
might cause adverse health effects as well. Although some  
research has been done to address these questions, no clear  
picture of the biological effects of this type of radiation has  
emerged to date.Thus, the available science does not allow us to  
conclude that mobile phones are absolutely safe, or that they are  
unsafe. However, the available scientific evidence does not  
demonstrate any adverse health effects associated with the use  
of mobile phones.  
180  
 
What kinds of phones are in question?  
Questions have been raised about hand-held mobile phones, the  
kind that have a built-in antenna that is positioned close to the  
user's head during normal telephone conversation. These types  
of mobile phones are of concern because of the short distance  
between the phone's antenna—the primary source of the RF—  
and the person's head. The exposure to RF from mobile phones  
in which the antenna is located at greater distances from the  
user (on the outside of a car, for example) is drastically lower  
than that from hand-held phones, because a person's RF  
exposure decreases rapidly with distance from the source. The  
safety of so-called “cordless phones,” which have a base unit  
connected to the telephone wiring in a house and which operate  
at far lower power levels and frequencies, has not been  
questioned.  
How much evidence is there that hand-held mobile  
phones might be harmful?  
Briefly, there is not enough evidence to know for sure, either  
way; however, research efforts are on-going. The existing  
scientific evidence is conflicting and many of the studies that  
have been done to date have suffered from flaws in their  
research methods. Animal experiments investigating the effects  
of RF exposures characteristic of mobile phones have yielded  
conflicting results. A few animal studies, however, have  
suggested that low levels of RF could accelerate the  
development of cancer in laboratory animals. In one study, mice  
genetically altered to be predisposed to developing one type of  
cancer developed more than twice as many such cancers when  
they were exposed to RF energy compared to controls. There is  
much uncertainty among scientists about whether results  
obtained from animal studies apply to the use of mobile phones.  
181  
First, it is uncertain how to apply the results obtained in rats and  
mice to humans. Second, many of the studies that showed  
increased tumor development used animals that had already  
been treated with cancer-causing chemicals, and other studies  
exposed the animals to the RF virtually continuously—up to 22  
hours per day.  
For the past five years in the United States, the mobile phone  
industry has supported research into the safety of mobile  
phones. This research has resulted in two findings in particular  
that merit additional study:  
1
In a hospital-based, case-control study, researchers looked  
for an association between mobile phone use and either  
glioma (a type of brain cancer) or acoustic neuroma (a  
benign tumor of the nerve sheath). No statistically  
significant association was found between mobile phone  
use and acoustic neuroma. There was also no association  
between mobile phone use and gliomas when all types of  
types of gliomas were considered together. It should be  
noted that the average length of mobile phone exposure in  
this study was less than three years.  
When 20 types of glioma were considered separately,  
however, an association was found between mobile phone  
use and one rare type of glioma, neuroepithelliomatous  
tumors. It is possible with multiple comparisons of the same  
sample that this association occurred by chance. Moreover,  
the risk did not increase with how often the mobile phone  
was used, or the length of the calls. In fact, the risk actually  
decreased with cumulative hours of mobile phone use.  
Most cancer causing agents increase risk with increased  
exposure. An ongoing study of brain cancers by the  
182  
National Cancer Institute is expected to bear on the  
1
accuracy and repeatability of these results.  
2
Researchers conducted a large battery of laboratory tests to  
assess the effects of exposure to mobile phone RF on  
genetic material. These included tests for several kinds of  
abnormalities, including mutations, chromosomal  
aberrations, DNA strand breaks, and structural changes in  
the genetic material of blood cells called lymphocytes. None  
of the tests showed any effect of the RF except for the  
micronucleus assay, which detects structural effects on the  
genetic material. The cells in this assay showed changes  
after exposure to simulated cell phone radiation, but only  
after 24 hours of exposure. It is possible that exposing the  
test cells to radiation for this long resulted in heating. Since  
this assay is known to be sensitive to heating, heat alone  
could have caused the abnormalities to occur. The data  
already in the literature on the response of the  
micronucleus assay to RF are conflicting. Thus, follow-up  
2
research is necessary.  
FDA is currently working with government, industry, and  
academic groups to ensure the proper follow-up to these  
industry-funded research findings. Collaboration with the  
Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) in  
particular is expected to lead to FDA providing research  
recommendations and scientific oversight of new CTIA-funded  
research based on such recommendations.  
Two other studies of interest have been reported recently in the  
literature:  
1
Two groups of 18 people were exposed to simulated mobile  
phone signals under laboratory conditions while they  
183  
performed cognitive function tests. There were no changes  
in the subjects' ability to recall words, numbers, or pictures,  
or in their spatial memory, but they were able to make  
choices more quickly in one visual test when they were  
exposed to simulated mobile phone signals. This was the  
only change noted among more than 20 variables  
3
compared.  
2
In a study of 209 brain tumor cases and 425 matched  
controls, there was no increased risk of brain tumors  
associated with mobile phone use.When tumors did exist in  
certain locations, however, they were more likely to be on  
the side of the head where the mobile phone was used.  
Because this occurred in only a small number of cases, the  
increased likelihood was too small to be statistically  
4
significant.  
In summary, we do not have enough information at this point to  
assure the public that there are, or are not, any low incident  
health problems associated with use of mobile phones. FDA  
continues to work with all parties, including other federal  
agencies and industry, to assure that research is undertaken to  
provide the necessary answers to the outstanding questions  
about the safety of mobile phones.  
What is known about cases of human cancer that  
have been reported in users of hand-held mobile  
phones?  
Some people who have used mobile phones have been  
diagnosed with brain cancer. But it is important to understand  
that this type of cancer also occurs among people who have not  
used mobile phones. In fact, brain cancer occurs in the U.S.  
population at a rate of about 6 new cases per 100,000 people  
184  
each year. At that rate, assuming 80 million users of mobile  
phones (a number increasing at a rate of about 1 million per  
month), about 4800 cases of brain cancer would be expected  
each year among those 80 million people, whether or not they  
used their phones. Thus it is not possible to tell whether any  
individual's cancer arose because of the phone, or whether it  
would have happened anyway. A key question is whether the  
risk of getting a particular form of cancer is greater among  
people who use mobile phones than among the rest of the  
population. One way to answer that question is to compare the  
usage of mobile phones among people with brain cancer with  
the use of mobile phones among appropriately matched people  
without brain cancer. This is called a case-control study. The  
current case-control study of brain cancers by the National  
Cancer Institute, as well as the follow-up research to be  
sponsored by industry, will begin to generate this type of  
information.  
What is FDA's role concerning the safety of mobile  
phones?  
Under the law, FDA does not review the safety of radiation-  
emitting consumer products such as mobile phones before  
marketing, as it does with new drugs or medical devices.  
However, the agency has authority to take action if mobile  
phones are shown to emit radiation at a level that is hazardous  
to the user. In such a case, FDA could require the manufacturers  
of mobile phones to notify users of the health hazard and to  
repair, replace or recall the phones so that the hazard no longer  
exists.  
Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA  
regulatory actions at this time, FDA has urged the mobile phone  
185  
industry to take a number of steps to assure public safety. The  
agency has recommended that the industry:  
• support needed research into possible biological effects of  
RF of the type emitted by mobile phones  
• design mobile phones in a way that minimizes any RF  
exposure to the user that is not necessary for device  
function  
• cooperate in providing mobile phone users with the best  
possible information on what is known about possible  
effects of mobile phone use on human health  
At the same time, FDA belongs to an interagency working group  
of the federal agencies that have responsibility for different  
aspects of mobile phone safety to ensure a coordinated effort at  
the federal level. These agencies are:  
• National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health  
• Environmental Protection Agency  
• Federal Communications Commission  
• Occupational Health and Safety Administration  
• National Telecommunications and Information  
Administration  
The National Institutes of Health also participates in this group.  
In the absence of conclusive information about any  
possible risk, what can concerned individuals do?  
If there is a risk from these products—and at this point we do  
not know that there is—it is probably very small. But if people  
are concerned about avoiding even potential risks, there are  
simple steps they can take to do so. For example, time is a key  
186  
factor in how much exposure a person receives. Those persons  
who spend long periods of time on their hand-held mobile  
phones could consider holding lengthy conversations on  
conventional phones and reserving the hand-held models for  
shorter conversations or for situations when other types of  
phones are not available.  
People who must conduct extended conversations in their cars  
every day could switch to a type of mobile phone that places  
more distance between their bodies and the source of the RF,  
since the exposure level drops off dramatically with distance. For  
example, they could switch to:  
• a mobile phone in which the antenna is located outside the  
vehicle  
• a hand-held phone with a built-in antenna connected to a  
different antenna mounted on the outside of the car or built  
into a separate package  
• a headset with a remote antenna to a mobile phone carried  
at the waist  
Again, the scientific data do not demonstrate that mobile  
phones are harmful. But if people are concerned about the radio  
frequency energy from these products, taking the simple  
precautions outlined above can reduce any possible risk.

VI.WhatThisWarranty Does Not Cover  
• Products that are operated in combination with ancillary or  
peripheral equipment or software not furnished by  
Motorola for use with the Products (“ancillary equipment”),  
or any damage to the Products or ancillary equipment as a  
result of such use. Among other things, “ancillary  
equipment” includes batteries, chargers, adaptors, and  
power supplies not manufactured or supplied by Motorola.  
Any of these voids the warranty.  
191  
Warranty  
• Someone other than Motorola (or its authorized service  
centers) tests, adjusts, installs, maintains, alters, modifies or  
services the Products in any way. Any of these voids the  
warranty.

evidence of tampering; (c) are used in equipment other  
than the Product for which they are specified; or (d) are  
charged and stored at temperatures greater than 60  
degrees centigrade. Any of these voids the warranty.  
• Products that have: (a) serial numbers or date tags that  
have been removed, altered or obliterated; (b) board serial  
numbers that do not match each other, or board serial  
numbers that do not match the housing; or (c)  
nonconforming or non-Motorola housings or parts. Any of  
these voids the warranty.  
• Defects or damage that result from: (a) use of the Products  
in a manner that is not normal or customary; (b) improper  
operation or misuse; (c) accident or neglect such as  
dropping the Products onto hard surfaces; (d) contact with  
water, rain, extreme humidity or heavy perspiration; (e)  
contact with sand, dirt or the like; or (f) contact with  
extreme heat, or spills of food or liquid.  
• Physical damage to the surface of the Products, including  
scratches, cracks or other damage to a display screen, lens  
or other externally exposed parts.  
192  
Warranty  
• Failure of Products that is due primarily to any  
communication service or signal you may subscribe to or  
use with the Products.  
• Coil cords that are stretched or that have any broken  
modular tabs.  
• Products that are leased.  
Flat-rate repair rates may apply to Products not covered by this  
warranty. To obtain information about Products needing repairs  
that are not covered by this warranty, please call the telephone  
number previously listed. We will provide information on repair  
availability, rates, methods of payment, where to send the  
Products, etc.  
VII. Some Other Limitations  
This is Motorola’s complete warranty for the Products,  
and states your exclusive remedies. This warranty is  
given in lieu of all other express warranties. Implied  
warranties, including without limitation, the implied  
warranties of merchantability and fitness for a  
particular purpose, are given only if specifically  
required by applicable law. Otherwise, they are  
specifically excluded.  
No warranty is made as to coverage, availability, or  
grade of service provided by the Products, whether  
through a service provider or otherwise.  
No warranty is made that the software will meet your  
requirements or will work in combination with any  
hardware or applications software products provided  
193  
Warranty  
by third parties, that the operation of the software  
products will be uninterrupted or error free, or that all  
defects in the software products will be corrected.  
In no event shall Motorola be liable, whether in  
contract or tort (including negligence) for damages in  
excess of the purchase price of the Product, or for any  
indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages  
of any kind, or loss of revenue or profits, loss of  
business, loss of information or data, or other financial  
loss arising out of or in connection with the ability or  
inability to use the Products, to the full extent these  
damages may be disclaimed by law.  
VIII. Patent and Software Provisions  
At Motorola’s expense, we will defend you, and pay costs and  
damages that may be finally awarded against you, to the extent  
that a lawsuit is based on a claim that the Products directly  
infringe a United States patent. Our obligation is conditioned on:  
(a) you notifying us promptly in writing when you receive notice  
of the claim; (b) you giving us sole control of the defense of the  
suit and all negotiations for its settlement or compromise; and  
(c) should the Products become, or in Motorola's opinion be  
likely to become, the subject of a claim of infringement of a  
United States patent, you permit us, at our option and expense,  
either to: procure for you the right to continue using the  
Products; replace or modify them so that they become non-  
infringing; or grant you a credit for such Products, as  
depreciated, and accept their return. The depreciation will be an  
equal amount per year over the lifetime of the Products, as  
established by Motorola.  
194  
Warranty  
Motorola will have no liability to you with respect to any claim of  
patent infringement that is based upon the combination of the  
Products or parts furnished under this limited warranty with  
ancillary equipment, as defined in VI., above.  
This is Motorola’s entire liability with respect to  
infringement of patents by the Products.  
Laws in the United States and other countries preserve for  
Motorola and other third party software providers certain  
exclusive rights for copyrighted software, such as the exclusive  
rights to reproduce in copies and distribute copies of such  
software. The software may be copied into, used in and  
redistributed with only those Products that are associated with  
such software. No other use, including without limitation,  
disassembly or reverse engineering of such software or exercise  
of exclusive rights in such software is permitted.  
IX. State Law and Other Jurisdiction Rights  
Some states and other jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or  
limitation of incidental or consequential damages, or limitation  
on the length of an implied warranty, so the above limitations or  
exclusions may not apply to you.  
This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also  
have other rights, which vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.

almost anywhere, anytime, wherever wireless  
phone service is available and safe conditions allow.  
But an important responsibility accompanies the  
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:

2
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 without taking your  
attention off the road.  
When available, use a hands-free device. If possible,  
add an additional layer of convenience to your wireless  
phone with one of the many Motorola Original™ hands-free  
accessories available today.

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.

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.  
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  
responsibility—driving safely.

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.  
Do not engage in stressful or emotional  
conversations that may be distracting. 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.  
Use your wireless phone to call for help. Dial 9-1-1 or  
other local emergency number in the case of fire, traffic  
accident or medical emergencies.*

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.*  
10 Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency  
wireless assistance number when necessary. If you see  
a broken-down vehicle posing no serious 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.  
213  
Check the laws and regulations on the use of  
wireless telephones and their accessories in the  
areas where you drive. Always obey them.The  
use of these devices may be prohibited or  
restricted in certain areas.
