Driving
Give full attention to drivingdriving safely is your rst responsibility; Use hands-free operation, if available; Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if
driving conditions so require. Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your phone.

Electronic Devices

Pacemakers The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of six (6) inches be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers:
Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from their
pacemaker when the phone is turned ON;
Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket; Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference.
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place,
turn your phone OFF immediately.
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 they are adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information. Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy. Vehicles RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle. Posted Facilities Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted notices so require.

Aircraft

FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Switch OFF your phone before boarding an aircraft.

To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone OFF when in a blasting area or in areas posted: Turn off two-way radio. Obey all signs and instructions. Turn your phone OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or re resulting in bodily injury or even death. Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include fueling areas such as gasoline stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; areas where fuel odors are present, i.e. if a gas/propane leak occurs in a car or home; 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. An air bag inates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including both installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inates, serious injury could result. Your Sprint PCS Phone is designed for excellent durability under normal use conditions. Protect your Sprint PCS Phone from water damage that could result from spills or excessive exposure to rain. Never submerge your phone. Cleaning of this product should only be done with a damp cloth. The use of chemical cleaners may harm the nish and integrity of the radio housing and is not recommended.

Expert Performance (EP)Charging System
The EP system enables your phones built-in charger to communicate with installed batteries and tailor its charging cycle to optimize performance. If you see Invalid Battery when you power up the phone, the built-in charger is not able to communicate with the battery and cannot charge it. There are several possible reasons for this message. The most likely one is that the battery is not a Motorola original and it does not have the appropriate EP technology. We recommend that you use only Motorola original batteries and accessories and that you store your batteries in their protective covers when not in use.
Using the Dual-Slot Desktop Charging Base
The Dual-Slot Desktop Charging Bases front pocket can charge batteries while they are attached to your Sprint PCS Phone, and the rear pocket can charge batteries separately. If you have a Dual-Slot Desktop Charging Base:
1. Attach Adapter 2. Plug In Adapter 3. Insert Phone & Insert Battery
Plug the AC Adapter Charger into the back of the charging base, with the release tab facing up. Plug the other end of the AC Adapter Charger into a wall socket. Insert the phone into the front pocket with a main and/or auxiliary battery attached. If you like, insert a main or auxiliary battery into the rear pocket.

Front Pocket

Rear Pocket
Note: If two or three batteries are loaded in the charging base, the batteries will charge one at a time. The main battery attached to the phone will charge rst, the attached auxiliary second, and the battery in the rear pocket last.
Dual-Slot Desktop Charging Base Indicators
The three LED indicators on the left front of the Dual-Slot Desktop Charging Base let you know the current state of any charging batteries. The rst light provides information on the main battery attached to the phone, the second on the attached auxiliary battery, and the third on any battery loaded in the rear pocket.
Red means the battery is charging. Flashing yellow means the battery is waiting to be charged. Green means the battery is charged within 90% of its capacity and can be used. An additional hour of charging will bring your battery up to 100% capacity. Flashing red means the battery is damaged and cannot be charged.
Dual-Slot Desktop Charging Base Times
The time it takes for your battery to obtain a full charge is affected by a variety of factors, including:
Temperature Batteries should be at or near room temperature when charging. To prolong battery life and charge capacity, avoid exposing your batteries to temperatures below -10C (14F) or above 45C (113F). It is a good idea to take your phone with you when you leave your car. Inactivity New batteries, or batteries that have been stored for long periods of time, may not charge properly. In these instances, the battery requires an overnight charge. Extended Usage 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.

Safety Information

Important: Read this information before using your wireless handheld phone. Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals. In August 1996, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for handheld wireless phones. Those guidelines are consistent with safety standards previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies: American National Standards Institute (ANSI) C95.National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP) Report International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996 Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic evaluations of the relevant scientific literature. For example, over 120 scientists, engineers, and physicians from universities, government health agencies, and industry reviewed the available body of research to develop the ANSI Standard (C95.1). The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines (and those standards). IMPORTANT To maintain compliance with the FCCs RF exposure guidelines, if you wear a handset on your body use only the Motorola supplied carrying case, holster or other

body-worn accessory for this product and ensure that the antenna is at least 1 inch (2.5 centimeters) from your body when transmitting.

Antenna Care

Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless telephones in the areas where you drive. Always obey them. Observe the following guidelines when using your phone while driving. Give full attention to drivingdriving safely is your first responsibility. Use hands-free phone operation, if available. Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require. Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. However, certain equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your wireless phone. Pacemakers The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of six inches (6") be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers: should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from their pacemaker when the phone is turned on should not carry the phone in a breast pocket should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference should turn the phone OFF immediately if you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place

Battery Information

Battery Covers

Your phones batteries are shipped in an uncharged state with protective covers on them. Save these covers; use them to carry batteries and to store batteries when they are not in use. The cover prevents objects from touching the battery terminals, thereby reducing the risk of injury or damage from a short circuit (see page 8). To begin using your phone, just slip a battery out of its protective cover, install and charge the battery. Removing the Main Battery Cover 1. Press in release latch. 2. Continue pushing in and upwards until battery slips free from its cover.

2. Release Latch 1.

Removing the Auxiliary Battery Cover 1. Hold auxiliary battery securely with one hand. With your other hands thumb, push up on bottom of the cover. 2. Continue to push up until the cover slides free of the pins on the bottom of the battery, then swing the cover outwards.
Attaching the Auxiliary Battery Cover 1. Slide the covers narrow end into the small grooved hook on the top of the auxiliary battery. 2. Push cover firmly so the base of cover slides past the pins on the auxiliary battery, then release.

1. Hook

Attaching the Main Battery Cover 1. Lower the side, opposite the release latch, into the cover. 2. Slip the side with the release latch down until it clicks.

A short tone will play periodically. Check your display to confirm low battery signals:
You will see: Press then press B_ Low Bat or B Low Bat
Tip: If you have a charged main battery attached to your phone, you can remove and change your auxiliary battery during a call.

Page 22

Battery Types Your StarTAC phone can use either Lithium Ion (LiIon) or Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries. Batteries are available in a variety of sizes: Slim, Standard, and Extra Capacity. Main Battery Talk and Standby Times:
Slim Main Battery (Lithium Ion) EP
up to 60 minutes talk-time or 12 hours standby-time
Auxiliary Batteries With an auxiliary battery attached, you can get even more talk-time and standby-time, in addition to your main battery. You can use any auxiliary battery with any main battery to fit the way you use your phone. Auxiliary Battery Talk and Standby Times: Times listed in this table reflect the capacity of the auxiliary battery shown. For a complete measure of talk-time or standby-time, simply combine the time shown for your main battery to the time shown for your auxiliary battery.
Slim Auxiliary Battery (Lithium Ion) EP
up to 90 minutes talk-time or 19 hours standby-time*
Standard Main Battery (Nickel Metal Hydride)
Standard Extra Capacity Main Battery (Lithium Ion) EP
up to 110 minutes talk-time or 19 hours standby-time
Keep in Mind: Talking on the phone uses more energy than leaving it idle; the more talk-time you use, the less standby-time youll have and vice versa.
*In addition to any main battery.

Page 24

Using the Internal Charger Believe it or not, theres a battery charger built right into your phone! Using either the AC adapter or cigarette lighter adapter, you can plug your phone directly into a power supply and charge attached batterieswhether the phone is ON or OFF. When the internal charger is in use, and the phone is ON, you can still place and receive calls. Just remember, talking on the phone requires energy, so charging will take more time. 1. Plug the AC adapter or cigarette lighter adapter into the accessory connector on the bottom of your phone as shown, with the release tab facing up. 2. Plug the adapter into the appropriate power source. In some cars, the ignition must be ON to use the cigarette lighter. What you will see when charging: While your phone is charging, regardless of whether your phone is turned ON or OFF, the battery icon will flash. When both batteries are fully charged the battery icon will cease flashing and become solid.

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 FDAs 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: 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 productsand at this point we do not know that there isit 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. 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. Where can I find additional information?
