Battery Tips
Battery Cool Down
Your phone is like a small computer, giving you access
to a lot of information and apps. Depending on what
you use, that can take a lot of power.
In very limited circumstances, such as where your
phone has been exposed to extreme heat, “Cool
Down” message screens will appear. To avoid possible
damage to your battery and phone, you should follow
these instructions until the phone is within its
recommended temperature range. When your phone is
in “Cool Down” mode, only emergency calls can be
made.
To conserve battery life between charges:
ⅷ Reduce recording or watching videos, listening to
music, or taking pictures.
ⅷ Disable or remove widgets that stream information to
your home screen, such as news or weather. (See

Emergency Calls
Your phone supports emergency calling. Emergency
phone calls can be made even when your SIM card is
blocked or not in your phone.
Important: Always report your location to the 911 operator
when placing an emergency call. Some
designated emergency call takers, known as
Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs) may not
be equipped to receive GPS location information
from your phone.

If you have not registered on the network,
emergency calls cannot be placed while your
SIM card is in your phone.
If you are bringing your phone number to Sprint
from your previous carrier, you may receive a
temporary telephone number while your Nextel
phone is being programmed with your
permanent phone number. If you make a call to
911 and the call fails, the 911 emergency
response center will not be able to call you back
on your Nextel phone if in the meantime, your
Nextel phone has been programmed with your
permanent telephone number. If the call is
disconnected before location and details have
been provided, call 911 again and advise that you
were disconnected.
When you make an emergency call, your phone’s GPS
Enabled feature can help emergency service
personnel find you, if you are in a location where your
phone's GPS antenna has established a clear view of
the open sky and your local emergency response
center has the equipment to process location
information. See “GPS and AGPS” on page 123.
Because of the limitations of this feature, always
provide your best knowledge of your location to the
emergency response center when you make an
emergency call.

Safety and Warranty
Information
Failure to read and follow the information provided in this
phone guide may result in serious bodily injury, death, or
property damage.
S1. Important Safety
Information
General Precautions
There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone
properly and maintaining safe, satisfactory service.
ࡗ ࡗ ⅷ To maximize performance, do not touch the bottom portion
of your phone where the internal antenna is located while
using the phone.
ࡗ ࡗ ࡗ ࡗ ࡗ ࡗ ࡗ ࡗ ࡗ ࡗ ࡗ ࡗ ⅷ Speak directly into the mouthpiece.
ⅷ Your mobile device is designed to resist damage from
exposure to certain rugged conditions. Avoid prolonged or
extreme exposure to those conditions.
ⅷ Any changes or modifications to your phone not expressly
approved in this document could void your warranty for this
equipment and void your authority to operate this
equipment.
Note: For the best care of your phone, only authorized personnel
should service your phone and accessories. Failure to do
so may be dangerous and void your warranty.
108
Following Safety Guidelines
Maintaining Safe Use of and Access
to Your Phone
To operate your phone safely and efficiently, always follow any
special regulations in a given area. Turn your phone off in areas
where use is forbidden or when it may cause interference or
danger.
Do Not Rely on Your Phone for Emergency Calls
Mobile phones operate using radio signals, which cannot
guarantee connection in all conditions. Therefore you should
never rely solely upon any mobile phone for essential
communication (e.g., medical emergencies). Emergency calls
may not be possible on all cellular networks or when certain
network services or mobile phone features are in use. Check
with your local service provider for details.
Using Your Phone Near Other Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio
frequency (RF) signals. However, RF signals from wireless
phones may affect inadequately shielded electronic
equipment.
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately
shielded electronic operating systems or entertainment
systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or their
representative to determine if these systems are adequately
shielded from external RF signals. Also check with the
manufacturer regarding any equipment that has been added to
your vehicle.
Using Your Phone While Driving
Talking on your phone while driving (or operating the phone
without a hands-free device) is prohibited in some jurisdictions.
Laws vary as to specific restrictions. Remember that safety
always comes first.
Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices,
such as pacemakers and hearing aids, to determine if they are
adequately shielded from external RF signals.
Responsible driving practices can be found in “Smart Practices
While Driving” on page 125 and/or at the Motorola website:
www.motorola.com/callsmart.
Tip: Purchase an optional hands-free accessory at your local
Sprint Store, or call Sprint at 1-866-866-7509.
109
When using your radio product as a traditional
two-way radio, hold the radio product in a
vertical position with the microphone one to
two inches (2.5 to 5 cm) away from the lips.
Operational Precautions
Note: Always turn off the phone in healthcare facilities, and
request permission before using the phone near medical
equipment.
If you wear a radio product on your body when
transmitting, always place the radio product in
To assure optimal radio product performance and to be sure
that human exposure to RF does not exceed the guidelines set
forth in the relevant standards, always follow these instructions
and precautions:
a Motorola approved clip, holder, holster, case or body harness.
If you do not use a body-worn accessory supplied or approved
by Motorola and are not using the radio product in the intended
use positions along side the head in the phone mode or in
front of the face in the two-way radio mode, or if you hang your
device from a lanyard around your neck, keep the device at
least 2.5 centimeters (1 inch) from your body when transmitting.
Phone Operation
When placing or receiving a phone call, hold your radio
product as you would a wireline telephone. Speak directly into
the microphone.
Approved Accessories
Two-way Radio Operation
For a list of approved Motorola accessories call 1-800-453-0920,
or visit our website at www.motorola.com/phoneaccessories.
Your radio product has been designed and tested to comply
with national and international standards and guidelines
regarding human exposure to RF electromagnetic energy,
when operated in the two-way mode (at the face, or at the
abdomen when using an audio accessory) at usage factors of
up to 50% talk/50% listen.
Turning Off Your Phone Before Flying
Turn off your phone before boarding any aircraft. To prevent
possible interference with aircraft systems, the U.S. Federal
Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations require you to have
permission from a crew member to use your phone while
the plane is on the ground. To prevent any risk of interference,
FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while the plane is in
the air.
Transmit no more than the rated duty factor of 50% of the time.
To transmit (talk), push the PTT button. To receive calls, release
the PTT button. Transmitting 50% of the time or less, is
important because this radio generates measurable RF energy
only when transmitting (in terms of measuring for standards
compliance).
110
ⅷ A choking hazard may exist for small, detachable parts.
Turning Off Your Phone in Dangerous Areas
ⅷ Improper use could result in loud sounds, possibly causing
hearing injury.
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone
off when in a blasting area or in other areas with signs
indicating two-way radios should be turned off. Construction
crews often use remote-control RF devices to set off explosives.
ⅷ Improperly handled batteries could overheat and cause a
burn.
Do not allow children to play with your phone as they could
hurt themselves and others, damage the phone or make calls
that increase your invoice.
Turn your phone off when you’re in any area that has a
potentially explosive atmosphere. Although it’s rare, your phone
and accessories could generate sparks. Sparks can cause an
explosion or fire, resulting in bodily injury or even death. These
areas are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include:
Glass Parts
Some parts of your phone 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 phone until the glass is
replaced by a qualified service center.
Ⅲ Fueling areas such as gas stations.
Ⅲ Below deck on boats.
Ⅲ Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.
Ⅲ Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such
as grain, dust, or metal powders.
Seizures/Blackouts
Ⅲ Any other area where you would normally be advised to
turn off your vehicle’s engine.
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.
Note: Never transport or store flammable gas, flammable liquids,
or explosives in the compartment of your vehicle that
contains your phone or accessories.
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 phone.
Keep Your Mobile Device and Its Accessories Away
From Small Children
These products are not toys and may be hazardous to children.
For example:
Discontinue use and consult a physician if any of the following
symptoms occur: convulsion, eye or muscle twitching, loss of
111
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.
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.
Caution About High Volume Usage
Battery Use and Safety
WARNING: Exposure to loud noise from any source for extended
periods of time may affect your hearing. The louder
the volume sound level, the less time is required
before your hearing could be affected.
Important: HANDLE AND STORE BATTERIES PROPERLY TO
AVOID INJURY OR DAMAGE. Most battery issues
arise from improper handling of batteries, and
particularly from the continued use of damaged
batteries.
To protect your hearing:
ⅷ Limit the amount of time you use headsets or headphones at
high volume.
ⅷ Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy surroundings.
DON’Ts
ⅷ Turn the volume down if you can’t hear people speaking
near you.
ⅷ Don’t disassemble, crush, puncture, shred, or otherwise
attempt to change the form of your battery.
If you experience hearing discomfort, including the sensation of
pressure or fullness in your ears, ringing in your ears, or
muffled speech, you should stop listening to the device through
your headset or headphones and have your hearing checked.
ⅷ Don’t let the phone or battery come in contact with water.
Water can get into the phone’s circuits, leading to corrosion.
If the phone and/or battery get wet, have them checked by
your carrier or contact Motorola, even if they appear to be
working properly.
For more information about hearing, see our website at
direct.motorola.com/hellomoto/nss/AcousticSafety.asp (in English
only).
ⅷ Don’t allow the battery to touch metal objects. If metal
objects, such as jewelry, stay in prolonged contact with the
battery contact points, the battery could become very hot.
112
ⅷ Don’t place your battery near a heat source. Excessive heat
can damage the phone or the battery. High temperatures
can cause the battery to swell, leak, or malfunction.
Therefore:
display such as Invalid Battery or Unable to Charge, take the
following steps:
ⅷ Remove the battery and inspect it to confirm that it has a
“Motorola Original” hologram;
Ⅲ Do not dry a wet or damp battery with an appliance or

follows.
Do not dispose of your battery or
phone in a fire.
Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this
interference noise, and phones also vary in the amount of
interference noise they may generate. ANSI standard C63.19
was developed to provide a standardized means of measuring
both wireless phone and hearing devices to determine usability
rating categories for both.
Your battery or phone may require
recycling in accordance with local
laws. Contact your local regulatory
authorities for more information.
032375o
Ratings have been developed for mobile phones to assist
hearing device users find phones that may be compatible with
their hearing device. Not all phones have been rated for
compatibility with hearing devices. Phones that have been

out the phone with your hearing device is the best way to
evaluate it for your personal needs.
ⅷ Any combined rating equal to or greater than six offers
excellent use.
ⅷ Any combined rating equal to five is considered normal use.
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements
for hearing aid compatibility and are likely to generate less
interference to hearing devices than unrated phones. (M4 is the
better/higher of the two ratings.)
ⅷ Any combined rating equal to four is considered usable.
Thus, if you pair an M3 hearing aid with an M3 phone, you will
have a combined rating of six for “excellent use.”This is
synonymous for T ratings.
T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and
are likely to be more usable with a hearing device’s telecoil (“T
Switch”or “Telephone Switch”) than unrated phones. (T4 is the
better/higher of the two ratings. Note that not all hearing
devices have telecoils in them.)
Sprint further suggests you experiment with multiple phones
(even those not labeled M3/T3 or M4/T4) while in the store to
find the one that works best with your hearing aid device.
Should you experience interference or find the quality of
service unsatisfactory after purchasing your phone, promptly
return it to the store within 30 days of purchase. (A restocking
fee may be applied to exchanges. Visit www.sprint.com/returns
for details.) More information about hearing aid compatibility
may be found at:
Note: This phone has been tested and rated for use with hearing
aids for some of the wireless technologies that it uses.
However, there may be some newer wireless technologies
used in this phone that have not been tested yet for use with
hearing aids. It is important to try the different features of this
phone thoroughly and in different locations, using your
hearing aid or cochlear implant, to determine if you hear
any interfering noise. Consult your service provider about its

human exposure to RF signals. More than 120 scientists, engineers
and physicians from universities, government health agencies and
industries developed this updated standard after reviewing the
available body of research. In 1993, the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) adopted this updated standard in a regulation.
In August 1996, the FCC adopted hybrid standard consisting of the
existing ANSI/IEEE standard and the guidelines published by the
National Council of Radiation Protection and Measurements
(NCRP).

reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless
base station, the lower the power output.
Specific Absorption Rate
Your MOTOROLA i886 wireless phone meets the
governmental requirements for exposure to radio waves.
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) submitted to the FCC and available for
review by Industry Canada. The highest SAR value for this
model phone when tested for use at the head is 0.87 W/kg,
and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is
1.08 W/kg. Body-worn measurements can differ, depending
upon available accessories and regulatory requirements. The
SAR information includes the Motorola testing protocol,
assessment procedure, and measurement uncertainty range
for this product.
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is
designed and manufactured to not exceed limits for exposure
to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government
and by the Canadian regulatory authorities. 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 for the safety of all persons,
regardless of age or health, and to account for any variations in
measurements.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a
unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate
(SAR). The SAR limit set by the FCC and by the Canadian
regulatory authorities is 1.6 watts per kilogram (W/kg),
averaged over one gram of tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted
using procedures accepted by the FCC and by Industry
Canada with the phone transmitting at its highest certified
power level in all tested frequencies. Although the SAR is
determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR
level of the phone while operating can be below the maximum
value. This is because the phone is designed to operate at
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of
various phones and at various positions, they meet the
governmental requirements for safe exposure. Please note that
improvements to this product model could cause differences in
the SAR value for later products; in all cases, products are
designed to be within the guidelines.
Additional information on SAR can be found on the Cellular
Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) website:

Privacy and Data Security
Motorola understands that privacy and data security are
important to everyone. Because some features of your phone
may affect your privacy or data security, please follow these
recommendations to enhance protection of your information:
Emergency Calls
When you make an emergency call, the cellular network may
activate the AGPS technology in your mobile device to tell the
emergency responders your approximate location.
ⅷ Monitor access: Keep your phone with you and do not leave
it where others may have unmonitored access. Lock your
device’s keypad where this feature is available.
AGPS has limitations and might not work in your area.
Therefore:
ⅷ Always tell the emergency responder your location to the
best of your ability; and
ⅷ Keep software up to date: If Motorola or a software/
application vendor releases a patch or software fix for your
phone which updates the device’s security, install it as soon
as possible.
ⅷ Remain on the phone for as long as the emergency
responder instructs you.
ⅷ Erase before recycling: Delete personal information or data
from your phone prior to disposing of it or turning it in for
recycling. For step-by-step instructions on how to delete all
personal information from your device, please contact your
local service provider.
Performance Tips
ⅷ Go outside and away from underground locations, covered
vehicles, structures with metal or concrete roofs, tall
buildings, and foliage. Indoor performance might improve if
you move closer to windows, but some window sun
shielding films can block satellite signals.
ⅷ Understanding AGPS: In order to comply with emergency
caller location requirements of the FCC, certain Motorola
phones incorporate Assisted Global Positioning System
(AGPS) technology. AGPS technology also can be used in
non-emergency applications to track and monitor a user’s
location, for example, to provide driving directions. Users
who prefer not to permit such tracking and monitoring
should avoid using such applications.
ⅷ Move away from radios, entertainment equipment, and other
electronic devices.
124
If you have further questions regarding how use of your phone
may impact your privacy or data security, please contact
Motorola.
ⅷ Position your phone within easy reach. Be able to access
your phone without removing your eyes from the road. If you
receive an incoming call at an inconvenient time, if possible,
let your voicemail answer it for you.
ⅷ 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.
Smart Practices While Driving
Drive Safe, Call Smart SM
ⅷ 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.
Check the laws and regulations on the use of mobile devices
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. Contact www.motorola.com/callsmart
for more information.
ⅷ Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls
when your car is not moving or before pulling into traffic. If
you must make a call while moving, dial only a few numbers,
check the road and your mirrors, then continue.
Your mobile device lets you communicate by voice and data—
almost anywhere, anytime, wherever wireless service is
available and safe conditions allow. When driving a car, driving
is your first responsibility. If you choose to use your mobile
device while driving, remember the following tips:
ⅷ 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 that can divert
your attention away from the road.
ⅷ Get to know your Motorola 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.
ⅷ Use your phone to call for help. Dial 911 or other local
emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident, or
medical emergencies.*
ⅷ When available, use a hands-free device. If possible, add an
additional layer of convenience to your phone with one of the
many Motorola Original hands-free accessories available
today.
125
ⅷ Use your 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 911 or other local emergency
number, as you would want others to do for you.*
ⅷ 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.*
