Driving Safety Tips  
Your wireless phone is a great safety tool. You can instantly call for help in  
emergencies or alert your next appointment that you're running late. Please  
follow these tips for using your wireless phone when you're behind the wheel.  
1. Give driving your full attention. Don't let anything interfere with your  
concentration.  
2. Assess road conditions before making or taking a call.  
3. Let voice mail pick up when its inconvenient or unsafe to answer the  
phone.  
4. Program your most frequently dialed numbers into your phone for  
speed dialing when dialing manually without the Turbo Dial® one-touch  
dialing feature, dial only when your vehicle is stopped - or have a  
passenger dial for you.  
3
                 
90  
5. Position your phone where it is easy to see and reach.  
6. Keep your eyes on the road. Never take notes while driving.  
7. Consider using a hands-free speakerphone or hands-free accessory  
which allows you to keep both hands on the wheel when speaking.  
8. Use your phone's Internet capabilities before you drive. Nextel Online  
services are not designed to be used while driving.  
9. Be a Good Samaritan. Dial 9-1-1 in emergencies to  
report accidents, impaired or aggressive drivers,  
crimes or fires. It's a free call. Know your phone  
number, so emergency services personnel can call you  
back if necessary.

SIM Card  
Your phone comes with a built-in level of security protection through the use of  
the SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card. The SIM card stores all your  
Phonebook information and your Nextel account identification information.  
Since this information is stored on the SIM card, not in your phone itself, you  
can remove the information by removing the SIM card.  
NOTE: Except for making emergency calls, your phone will not  
function without the SIM card.  
The SIM card is located in the SIM card holder on the back of the phone,  
underneath the battery. You can verify the SIM card is in place by removing the  
battery and viewing the SIM card through the SIM card cover.  
See Inserting/Removing the SIM Cardon page 20 for information on locating  
the SIM card. If there is no SIM card in your phone, notify your Nextel  
Authorized Representative.  
SIM Card Personal Identification Number (PIN)  
To prevent unauthorized use of your account, you can protect your SIM card by

enter your PIN each time the phone is powered on. You can change or disable  
your PIN if desired.

your account.

each time you turn on your phone. Until a valid PIN is entered, you can use the  
phone only to make emergency calls.  
After the PIN is accepted, the phone registers on the network and the idle screen  
displays.

entering a PIN.  
IMPORTANT: It is recommended that you enable the PIN security  
feature to protect personal data on your SIM card. This

Using T9® Text Input  
®
Using T9 Text Input  
®
Your i90c phone has embedded software, called T9 Text Input, that makes  
typing on a phone keypad much like typing on a computer keyboard it  
eliminates the traditional multi-tapmethod of text entry. As you type, you  
press only one key per letter. T9 Text Input matches your keystrokes to words in  
its linguistic database of approximately 60,000 words and proper names. You  
may also store additional words you frequently use in your own user database,  
which is incorporated into the T9 database.  
T9 Text Input is available when you are typing information into your phone (for  
example, in the Phonebook or Datebook) and while using Nextel Online  
services.  
T9 Text Input Entry Modes  
Four text entry modes are available in T9 Text Input: Alpha, Word, Symbols,  
and Numeric. When you are using T9 Text Input, an icon in the top right corner  
of your phones display screen (next to the battery strength indicator icon)  
indicates the T9 Text Input entry mode you are using:

When you are using Nextel Online, T9 Text Input becomes available whenever  
you access a screen that requires you to enter text. The right display option on  
your the phones screen indicates your current T9 Text Input text entry mode:  
ALPHA or alpha for Alpha mode  
WORD or word for Word mode  
SYM1, SYM2, SYM3, or SYM4 for Symbols mode  
NUM for Numeric mode  
To change text entry modes, press the C under text entry mode until the desired  
mode displays.  
NOTE: The remaining T9 Text Input instructions do not apply to Nextel  
Online. See the Nextel Online Users Guide available on  
nextel.com for instructions on using T9 Text Input with Nextel  
Online services.

Using Word Mode  
T9 Text Input software replaces conventional multi-tap text entry, enabling

key on a telephone has more than one letter, pressing the number 5 could  
represent J, K, or L. T9 automatically compares users key presses to a  
linguistic database to determine the correct word. For example, entering the  
word callinto a wireless phone takes just four key presses with T9, compared  
to ten using conventional multi-tap entry.

Pause Digit Entry  
Pause Digit Entry  
When storing a number, you can program your phone so it will not only dial a  
number but also pause before entering another series of numbers such as a  
personal identification number (PIN) or password. This feature is particularly  
useful for accessing automated services such as voice mail and banking systems  
from your i90c phone.  
Example: Lets say you have a company voice mail account that you frequently  
check while traveling. And, to access that account you must do the following:  
dial your work number  
press # while the voice mail greeting is being played  
enter your PIN to access your messages  
You can program your phone to enter all of the above information for you by  
separating each entry with a pause. The stored data would look like this:  
17035551234P#P1234. In this example, the first eleven digits represent the  
number that must be dialed to access your voice mail. The P represents a 3  
second pause. The # interrupts your greeting. The second P represents another 3  
second pause. The last four digits represent your PIN.  
To create a three-second pause, follow the steps below:  
Press and hold * for two seconds. The pause symbol (P) will appear  
on the display screen.  
NOTE: You can enter up to 20 characters in a single entry, stored or  
dialed. You can program your phone to pause for more than 3  
seconds. Performing the above step twice will program two  
pauses and cause your phone to wait 6 seconds before entering  
the next set of numbers.

be liable to Customer or to any third party for any eavesdropping on or interception of  
communications from Companys System.  
4. DEPOSITS Company has the right, exercisable in its sole discretion at any time or  
from time to time, to require Customer to make a deposit to guarantee payment of sums  
due hereunder, including Service charges. Customer hereby grants Company, as  
applicable, a security interest in such deposits, to secure the payment of all sums due  
hereunder as well as the performance of all other payment obligations Customer may have  
to the Company whether now existing or hereafter rising. Upon termination of Service,  
Company may apply the deposit against any outstanding Service charges of Customer or  
any other amount owed to Company. Company reserves the right to interrupt Services if  
Service appears to have excessive charges, payments are delinquent, or any unusual  
calling patterns are observed on Customers account. Such interruption may be done to  
protect Customer or Company as the Company determines in its sole discretion, but in no  
event shall the Company be liable to the Customer or to any third party by reason of  
interrupting or failing to cause an interruption of Service.  
5. RATES, CHARGES, AND PAYMENT Company shall issue invoices for Service.  
Monthly Access charges shall be invoiced in advance. Airtime and long distance charges  
shall be invoiced in arrears. Customer agrees to pay Company, on a timely basis, for  
charges by Company for Service. Customer acknowledges that chargeable time for  
telephone calls and Nextel Direct Connect call transmissions originated by a unit begin  
when a connection is established with Company facilities. A new Nextel Direct Connect  
call is initiated by a call participant if that participant responds more than six (6) seconds  
after the other party finishes its Nextel Direct Connect transmission. Customer accepts  
responsibility for Airtime charges from incoming telephone calls to its mobile unit from  
the time that Customer responds to the call. If Customer disputes any Service charges,  
Customer must pay the entire amount set forth in the invoice by the due date and submit a  
written explanation within forty five (45) days from the date Company charges Customer  
for the disputed Service. If Company determines that an error was made with respect to  
any disputed Service charges, Company shall credit Customers account in the amount of  
the error. If Customer does not pay the amount in dispute owed to Company, Company  
may exercise any remedies it may have under this Agreement for non-payment of Service  
charges. Company reserves the right to modify any and all elements of the Service charges  
at any time and each such modification shall be effective immediately upon the  
Companys communication thereof to Customer, unless the Companys communication  
indicates a later effective date with respect to such modification. Payments which are not  
received within thirty (30) days from the date of Companys communication thereof to  
Customer, Customer shall be subject to late payment charges of 1.5% of the disputed  
Service charges (or the maximum interest rate permitted by law). The late payment

Nextel Terms and Conditions of Service  
charge is for costs related to the non-timely payment and shall not be deemed an interest  
payment. If the parties have agreed that payments are to be made in installments, or on  
credit, Customer shall be responsible for paying amounts due as agreed. If Customer does  
not make all payments when they are due, such failure shall be a default under this  
Agreement and Company shall be entitled to exercise any remedies it may have under this  
Agreement or at law or in equity. If the sale of the Equipment is on a credit or installment  
basis and the Customer accepts delivery of the Equipment, the Customer may not return  
the Equipment or receive a refund or any amounts paid and agrees to continue making  
payments as required under this Agreement until the Equipment sale price is paid in full.  
6. NONPAYMENT/BREACH A charge of $25.00 will be made by Company for any  
check or negotiable instrument tendered by Customer and returned unpaid by a financial  
institution for any reason. Company may demand payment by money order, cashiers  
check, or similarly secure form of payment, at Companys discretion at any time or from  
time to time. If Company obtains the services of a collection or repossession agency or an  
attorney to assist Company in remedying Customers breach of this Agreement, including  
but not limited to the nonpayment for charges hereunder, Customer shall be liable for this  
expense. Customer understands that in the event of nonpayment of charges or any other  
breach of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, in addition to any other remedies  
Company may have, Company may temporarily or permanently terminate Service to  
Customer. If Service is terminated and not reconnected within 30 days, all outstanding  
payments to be made in installments are accelerated and immediately due in full. If  
Company disconnects the Service, Customer shall be liable to satisfy and discharge all  
outstanding amounts due and may, at Companys sole discretion, be required to pay a  
reconnect charge of $25.00 per unit, in addition to any advance payment of Service  
charges that may be requested by the Company at its discretion, before the Company will  
reactivate Service. Company reserves the right to modify the terms of Service as a  
precondition to reactivating Service. If the Equipment is purchased on an installment  
basis, or credit, the Company may take possession of the Equipment, at any time wherever  
the same may be without legal process and without being responsible for loss and damage.  
7. NEXTEL ONLINE SERVICES Nextel Online Services, consisting of certain

THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENTS 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 when tested for use  
at the ear is 1.15 W/kg and when tested on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.71 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: AZ489FT5808.  
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.

Operational Cautions  
Do not operate any battery charger if it has received a sharp blow, has been  
dropped, or has been damaged in any way; take it to a qualified service  
technician.  
Do not disassemble a battery charger; take it to a qualified service  
technician when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may  
result in a risk of electric shock or fire.  
Maximum ambient temperature around the power supply or transformer of  
any battery charger should not exceed 40°C (104°F).  
The output power from the power supply or transformer must not exceed  
the rating given on the Desktop Dual-Pocket Charger.  
The disconnection from the line voltage is made by unplugging the power  
supply from the AC receptacle.  
To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug any battery charger from the outlet  
before attempting any maintenance or cleaning.  
For optimum charging performance, turn off the radio product while charging it  
in any battery charger.

The U.S. Food and Drug  
Administration's Center for  
Devices and Radiological Health  
Consumer Update on Mobile  
Phones  
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 radiofrequency energy (i.e., radiofrequency  
radiation) in the microwave range while being used. They also emit very low  
levels of radiofrequency 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.  
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.

US FDA Consumer Update  
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. 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 National Cancer Institute is expected to bear on the accuracy and  
205  
90  
repeatability of these results.(1)  
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 research is  
necessary.(2)  
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 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 compared.(3)  
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

206  
US FDA Consumer Update  
occurred in only a small number of cases, the increased likelihood was too  
small to be statistically significant.(4)  
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 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 industry to take a number of steps to  
assure public safety. The agency has recommended that the industry:  
207  
90  
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; and  
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 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, or  
a headset with a remote antenna to a mobile phone carried at the waist.

208  
US FDA Consumer Update  
Again, the scientific data do not demonstrate that mobile phones are harmful.  
But if people are concerned about the radiofrequency energy from these  
products, taking the simple precautions outlined above can reduce any possible  
risk.
