Getting Started  
Setting Up Your Phone  
Before using your i602 phone:  
Make sure your SIM card is in place.  
Charge the battery.  
Turn on your phone.  
See “Getting Started With Your Phone” on page 15 for more  
information.  
Determining If Your Phone Is Already Activated  
If you purchased your phone at a Sprint Store, it is probably  
ready to use. If you received your phone in the mail, it  
probably has been activated; all you need to do is unlock it. If  
your phone is not activated, please call 1-866-398-0455.  
You must be in an area covered by the Nationwide Sprint PCS  
Network and the Nextel National Network when you first  
power up and unlock your phone.  
Tip:  
Unlocking Your Phone  
To unlock your phone, follow these easy steps:  
1. Press and hold e to turn the phone on.  
2. Press Unlock (right softkey).  
To select a softkey, press the button directly below the text  
appearing on the bottom left and right of your display screen.  
Softkey actions change according to screen.  
Note:  
3. Enter your four-digit lock code.  
Section 1A: Setting Up Service

If you can’t recall your lock code, try using the last four digits  
of your wireless phone number. If neither of these works, call  
Nextel Customer Service.  
Tip:  
When you power up your phone the first time, it performs a  
series of security checks. For example, it verifies the phone is  
Nextel-approved and the correct SIM card is installed. If you  
don’t pass the security checks, your phone displays messages  
and screen prompts showing what to do next. If you still  
encounter security messages, call Nextel Customer Service at  
1-800-639-6111.

Section 1A: Setting Up Service  
Setting Up Your Voicemail

your Nextel service), you can get a sub-account password at  
Voicemail Password  
You create your voicemail password (or passcode) when you  
set up your voicemail. See “Setting Up Your Voicemail” on  
page 5 for more information on your voicemail password.

Using Your Phone’s Battery and Charger  
Use only Nextel-approved or Motorola-approved  
batteries and chargers with your phone. The failure to use  
a Nextel-approved or Motorola-approved battery and  
charger may increase the risk that your phone overheats,  
catches fire, or explodes, resulting in serious bodily injury,  
death, or property damage.  
WARNING  
Nextel-approved and Motorola-approved batteries and  
accessories can be found at Sprint Stores, through Motorola,  
or by calling 1-888-242-4187 to order. They’re also available  
at www.nextel.com – just click the Accessories link.  
Battery Capacity  
Your phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery. It  
allows you to recharge your battery before it is fully drained.  
When the battery reaches 5% of its capacity, your phone  
makes a sound and displays a message. When there are  
approximately two minutes of talk time left, the phone  
sounds an audible alert and then powers down.  
Long light settings, searching for service, vibrate mode,  
browser use, and other variables may affect battery life.  
Note:  
Tip:  
Be sure to watch your phone’s battery level indicator and  
charge the battery before it runs out of power.  
Battery Use and Battery Safety  
Motorola recommends you always use Motorola-branded  
batteries and chargers. The warranty does not cover  
damage caused by non-Motorola batteries and/or  
chargers.  
Battery usage by children should be supervised.  
18  
Section 1B: Your Phone: The Basics  
   
Use of an unqualified battery or charger may present a risk  
of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard. Improper battery  
use, or use of a damaged battery, may result in a fire,  
explosion, or other hazard.  
Caution:  
Important: Motorola mobile devices are designed to work  
best with qualified batteries. If you see a message on your  
display such as Invalid Battery or Unable to Charge, take the  
following steps:  
Remove the battery and inspect it to confirm that it  
bears a Motorola “Original Equipment” hologram;  
If there is no hologram, the battery is not a qualified  
battery;  
If there is a hologram, replace the battery and retry  
charging it;  
If the message remains, contact a Motorola  
Authorized Service Center.  
New batteries or batteries stored for a long time may take  
more time to charge.  
Charging precautions: When charging your battery, keep it  
near room temperature. Never expose batteries to  
temperatures below 0°C (32°F) or above 45°C (113°F)  
when charging. Always take your mobile device with you  
when you leave your vehicle.  
When storing your battery, keep it in a cool, dry place.  
It is normal for battery life to decrease over time, and for  
the battery to exhibit shorter runtime between charges or  
require more frequent or longer charging times.  
Avoid damage to battery and mobile device. Do not  
disassemble, open, crush, bend, deform, puncture, shred,  
or submerge the battery or mobile device. Avoid dropping  
the battery or mobile device, especially on a hard surface.  
If your battery or mobile device has been subjected to  
such damage, take it to a Motorola Authorized Service  
Section 1B: Your Phone: The Basics  
19  
Center before using. Do not attempt to dry it with an  
appliance or heat source, such as a hair dryer or  
microwave oven.  
Use care when handling a charged battery — particularly  
when placing it inside a pocket, purse, or other container  
with metal objects. Contact with metal objects (e.g.,  
jewelry, keys, beaded chains) could complete an electrical  
circuit (short circuit), causing the battery to become very  
hot, which could cause damage or injury.  
Promptly dispose of used batteries in accordance with  
local regulations. Contact your local recycling center  
for proper battery disposal.  
WARNING Never dispose of batteries in a fire because they may  
explode.  
Installing the Battery

4. Remove the battery by lifting it out from the side.  
Charging the Battery  
Your phone’s Li-Ion battery is rechargeable and should be  
charged as soon as possible so you can begin using your  
phone.  
Keeping track of your battery’s charge is important. If your  
battery level becomes too low, your phone automatically  
turns off, and you lose all the information you were just  
working on.  
For a quick check of your phone’s battery level, glance at the  
battery charge indicator located on your display screen. If the  
battery charge is getting too low, the phone makes a sound  
and displays a message.

Nextel Direct TalkCalls  
Nextel Direct Talk allows for two-way radio communication  
“off the network” between two or more phones equipped  
with this capability. This feature is very useful in areas  
without network coverage.  
You can make –  
Code calls – two-way radio calls conducted off the network  
and using open channels and codes. In these calls, anyone  
using your same channel and code can hear your  
conversation.  
Private calls – two-way radio calls conducted off the  
network and using the wireless phone numbers of the  
participants. In these calls, others using the same channel  
cannot listen in.  
When using Direct Talk mode, the two phones should be a  
minimum of six feet apart to maximize performance and  
improve transmission range. You can only make Direct Talk  
calls to users located within your range. This varies according  
to terrain, man-made structures, and atmospheric conditions.  
The following features are not available while in Direct Talk  
mode:  
On-network phone calls.  
On-network Walkie-Talkie, Group Walkie-Talkie, Talkgroup  
calls, and Call Alerts.  
Data Services.  
Sending and receiving messages.  
Call timer.  
Sending Call Alerts.

channel. Channels represent the radio frequencies on which  
you make and receive Nextel Direct Talk calls. Codes allow you  
to minimize interference from others using the same channel  
as you.  
To make Direct Talk Code calls, both parties must be on the  
same channel and code and have their phones set to Direct  
Talk. Be aware that others using both your same code and  
channel can hear your conversation. And, you can hear their  
conversations as well.

TTY Use  
A TTY (also known as a TDD or Text Telephone) is a  
telecommunications device that allows people who are deaf,  
hard of hearing, or who have speech or language disabilities,  
to communicate by telephone.  
Your phone is compatible with select TTY devices. Please  
check with the manufacturer of your TTY device to ensure  
that it supports digital wireless transmission. Your phone and  
TTY device connects via a special cable that plugs into your  
phone's headset jack. If this cable was not provided with your  
TTY device, contact your TTY device manufacturer to purchase  
the connector cable.  
When establishing your wireless service, please call Sprint  
Customer Service via the state Telecommunications Relay  
Service (TRS) by first dialing  
. Then provide the  
7 1 1 s  
state TRS with this number: 866-727-4889.

WARNING  
911 Emergency Calling  
Sprint recommends that TTY users make emergency  
calls by other means, including Telecommunications  
Relay Services (TRS) and landline communications.  
Wireless TTY calls to 911 may be corrupted when  
received by public safety answering points (PSAPs)  
rendering some communications unintelligible. The  
problem encountered appears related to TTY  
equipment or software used by PSAPs. This matter  
has been brought to the attention of the FCC, and the  
wireless industry and PSAP community are currently  
working to resolve this.

Roaming is the ability to make or receive phone calls when you’re  
off the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network. Your new Motorola  
Buzz+ ic602 phone by Motorola works anywhere on the  
Nationwide Sprint PCS Network and allows you to roam on  
other networks where we’ve implemented roaming  
agreements with other carriers. (Nextel Walkie-Talkie calls are  
allowed anywhere on the Nextel National Network.)  
This section explains how roaming works as well as special  
features that let you manage your roaming experience.  
Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience  
105  
       
Understanding Roaming  
Recognizing the Roaming Icon on the Display  
Screen  
Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when  
you’re off the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network. Any time you  
are roaming, the phone displays the roaming icon (  
).  
Remember, when you are using your phone off the  
Nationwide Sprint PCS Network, always dial numbers using  
11 digits (1 + area code + number).  
Tip:  
Unless your service plan includes roaming, you will pay a  
higher per-minute rate for roaming calls.  
Note:  
Roaming on Other Digital Networks  
When you’re roaming on digital networks, your call quality  
and security will be similar to the quality you receive when  
making calls on the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network.  
However, you may not be able to access certain features, such  
as the browser or Messaging.  
If you’re on a call when you leave the Nationwide Sprint PCS  
Network, your call is dropped. If your call is dropped in an area  
where you think Sprint service is available, turn your phone  
off and on again to reconnect to the Nationwide Sprint PCS  
Network.  
Note:  
106  
Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience  
 
Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming  
When you are roaming off the Nationwide Sprint PCS  
Network, you may not receive on-phone notification of new  
voicemail messages. Callers can still leave messages, but you  
will need to periodically check your voicemail for new  
messages if you are in a roaming service area for an extended  
period of time.  
To check your voicemail while roaming:  
1. Dial 1 + area code + your phone number.  
2. When you hear your voicemail greeting, press  
.
*
3. Enter your passcode at the prompt and follow the voice  
prompts.  
Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience  
107  
Setting Your Phone’s Roam Mode  
Your phone allows you to control your roaming capabilities.  
By using the Roaming menu option, you can determine which  
signals your phone accepts.  
Set Mode  
Choose from three different settings to control your roaming  
experience.  
To set your phone’s roam mode:  
1. Press  
> Settings/Tools > Settings > Roaming > Set Mode.  
O
2. To select an option, highlight it and press  
.
O
Sprint Only allows you to access the Nationwide  
Sprint PCS Network only and prevents roaming on  
other networks.  
Automatic seeks Sprint service. When Sprint service  
is unavailable, the phone searches for an alternate  
system.  
Roaming Only forces the phone to seek a roaming  
system. The previous setting (Sprint Only or  
Automatic) is restored the next time the phone is  
turned on.  
108  
Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience  
   
Alerting Yourself to Roaming  
Your phone has three ways of alerting you when you are  
roaming off the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network: the on  
screen roaming icon, a special ringer you can set for calls you  
receive when roaming, and Call Guard.  
Using the Roam Ringer  
The Roam Ringer feature allows you to set your phone to use  
a distinct ringer when you receive calls while roaming off the  
Nationwide Sprint PCS Network.  
To set the Roam Ringer:  
1. Press  
> Settings/Tools > Settings > Sounds > Ringer Type  
O
> Roam Ringer.  
2. Highlight Distinct to give your incoming roaming calls a  
distinct ringer. Highlight Normal to give incoming  
roaming calls a ringer that is not distinct from the calls  
you receive when you are on the Nationwide Sprint PCS  
Network.  
3. Press  
.
O
Using Call Guard  
Call Guard makes it easy to manage your roaming charges by  
requiring an extra step before you can place or answer a  
roaming call. (This additional step is not required when you  
make or receive calls while on the Nationwide Sprint PCS  
Network.)  
To turn Call Guard on or off:  
1. Press  
> Settings/Tools > Settings > Roaming >  
O
Call Guard.  
2. Highlight On or Off and press  
.

Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience  
109  
     
Speed dialing is not available when you are roaming with  
Call Guard enabled.  
Note:  
If the Call Guard feature is set to On, you need to take extra  
steps to make and receive roaming calls.  
To place roaming calls with Call Guard on:  
1. From standby mode, dial 1 + area code + the seven-digit  
number and press  
. (A message is displayed,  
s
informing you that you're making a roam call.)  
2. Press Yes (left softkey) to place the call.  
To answer incoming roaming calls with Call Guard on:  
1. Press  
. (A message is displayed, notifying you that  
s
roaming charges apply.)  
2. Press Yes (left softkey) to answer the call.  
Using Data Roam Guard  
Data Roam Guard makes it easy to manage roaming charges  
incurred when accessing the Web through data services.  
Whenever you are outside the Nationwide Sprint PCS  
Network, Data Roam Guard alerts you to this and asks you  
whether you want to continue using the Web. (This  
additional step is not required when you connect to the Web  
while on the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network.)  
To turn Data Roam Guard on or off:  
1. Press  
> Settings/Tools > Settings > Roaming > Data  
O
Roam Guard.

This section guides you through accessing and making the  
most of your Call History.  
Section 2E: Managing Call History

Viewing Call History  
Call History makes returning phone and Walkie-Talkie calls,  
and responding to Call Alerts fast and easy. It lists the last 60  
numbers (or Contacts entries) of phone calls you have made,  
received or missed. Call History also lists Walkie-Talkie calls,  
Group Walkie-Talkie calls, Talkgroup calls, Call Alerts, and  
Private Direct Talk calls.  
Call History lists are continually updated as new numbers are  
added to the beginning of the list and the oldest entries are  
removed from the bottom of the list.  
Your phone tracks and displays the call histories of phone  
calls, Walkie-Talkie calls, and Call Alerts differently.  
Call History only records calls that occur while the phone is  
turned on. If a phone or Walkie-Talkie call is received while  
your phone is turned off, it does not appear in Call History.  
You can also access Walkie-Talkie call history by pressing  
O > Walkie-Talkie > W-T Contacts > W-T Call History. Your phone  
displays a filtered Call History list that only contains  
Walkie-Talkie numbers.  
Tip:  
Viewing the Call History of Phone Calls  
If you return a phone call from the voicemail menu, it does  
not appear in your phone’s Outgoing Calls list.  
Note:  
Each entry contains the phone number (if it is available) and  
Contacts entry name (if the phone number is in your  
Contacts). Duplicate calls (same number and type of call) may  
only appear once on the list, except for missed phone calls in  
the Missed Call list.

Talkie number. Each Contacts entry must contain a  
number or an electronic address.  
A picture — You can assign a picture to display whenever

Voice Recognition — Dialing & Messaging  
With Voice Recognition, you can place calls and perform tasks  
simply by speaking. You do not need any voice training to use  
Voice Recognition. You simply say the appropriate command  
in a normal tone of voice and your phone performs the  
desired function.  
Using Call <Name or #>  
You dial phone numbers simply by saying “Call.” To place calls  
to names stored in your Contacts, say “Call” followed by the  
name and the type of number (Home, Work, Mobile, etc.). To  
make phone calls to numbers not saved to your Contacts,  
simply say “Call” followed by a valid phone number.  
You can also say “Call” by itself and be prompted for the name  
or number.  
Calling Contacts Entries  
To place a phone call to a Contacts entry:  
1. Press and hold the Speaker Key. (Your phone displays the  
Say a command screen.)  
2. Say “Call” and then say the name and the type of  
number. For example, say “Call John Mobile.” The phone  
dials the number stored for the entry “John,” labeled  
“Mobile.”  
If a name has only one number, or if you know the name but  
are not sure which number to call, say “Call” followed by the  
name only. For example, say “Call John.” If the name is  
recognized and there is only one number for the name, your  
phone immediately places the call. If there are multiple  
numbers stored in the entry, the phone prompts you with a  
list of options.  
Section 2H: Using Your Phone’s Voice Services

or to hear the next choice, say “No.” You can also select the  
correct choice using your keypad.  
To cancel the command, say “Cancel,” or to say the name or

recognize the way specific persons say digits. Adaptation  
involves recording several digit sequences to teach Voice  
Recognition to recognize your voice. The adaptation process  
takes about three minutes.  
After using Adapt Digits, your phone will be customized to  
your voice. Other people will not be able to use Digit Dial on  
your phone unless they reset the phone to factory defaults.

accuracy, you will find no additional benefit from using  
Adapt Digits.

Tips for adapting Digit Dial:  
Adapt digits in a quiet place.  
Make sure you wait for the beep before speaking.  
Speak clearly, but say each digit sequence naturally.  
If you make a mistake while recording a sequence of  
digits, or if an unexpected noise spoils the recording, you  
can say or select No when the prompt asks if the recording  
was OK. You will then be prompted to rerecord the  
sequence.  
To reset Digit Dial to its factory settings, press and release  
Smart Key and then press Settings (left softkey). Select  
Digit Dialing > Reset Digits.

Getting Started  
With your phone and Nextel service from Sprint, you are  
ready to start enjoying the advantages of data services. This  
section helps you learn the basics of using your data services,  
including managing your user name, launching a data  
connection, and navigating the Web with your phone.  
Your User Name  
When you buy a phone and sign up for service, you're  
automatically assigned a user name, which is typically based  
on your name and a number, followed by “@sprint.com.” (For  
example, the third John Smith to sign up for data services  
might have [email protected] as his user name.)  
When you use data services, your user name identifies you to  
the network. The user name is also useful as an address, as a  
way to personalize Web services, and as an online virtual  
identity.  
Your user name is automatically programmed into your  
phone. You don't have to enter it.  
Finding Your User Name  
If you aren't sure what your user name is, you can easily find  
it on your phone.  
To find your user name:  
Press O > Settings/Tools > Settings > Phone Info >  
My Phone Numbers.  
Launching a Data Connection  
To launch a data connection:  
Press O > Web. (Your data connection starts and the  
home page is displayed.)  
196  
Section 3B: Data Services  
     
If you have activated Net Guard, you are prompted to confirm  
the connection. See “Net Guard” on page 103 for more  
information.  
If you had a previous data connection, the last page you  
visited is displayed when you start your browser. Though the  
browser is open, you are not currently in an active data  
session—that is, no data is being sent or received. As soon as  
you navigate to another page, the active session begins.  
Connection Status and Indicators  
Your display screen lets you know the status of your data  
connection.  
Flashing arrows indicate that your phone is transmitting  
data.  
Indicates the connection has been established.  
See “Keeping Track” on page 68 for information on how your  
phone deals with incoming calls during data sessions.  
Navigating the Web  
Navigating through menus and Web sites during a data  
session is easy once you've learned a few basics. Here are  
some tips for getting around:  
Softkeys  
During a data session, the bottom line of your phone's display  
screen contains one or more softkeys. These keys are shortcut  
controls for navigating around the Web, and they correspond  
to the softkey buttons directly below the phone’s display  
screen.  
Depending on which Web sites you visit, the labels on the  
softkeys may change to indicate their function.  
Tip:  
Section 3B: Data Services  
197  
 
To use softkeys:  
Press the button directly below the softkey you want to  
use. (If an additional pop-up menu appears when you  
press the softkey button, select the menu items using  
your keypad [if they’re numbered] or by highlighting the  
option and pressing O.)  
Scrolling  
As with other parts of your phone's menu, you'll have to scroll  
up and down to see everything on some Web sites.  
To scroll line by line through Web sites:  
Press the navigation key up and down.  
To scroll page by page through Web sites:  
Press the volume buttons on the side of the phone.  
Selecting  
Once you've learned how to use softkeys and scroll, you can  
start navigating the Web.  
To select onscreen items:  
Use the navigation key to highlight the desired item,  
then press the desired softkey button (or press O).  
If the items on a page are numbered, you can use your keypad  
(number keys) to select an item.  
Tip:  
Links, which appear as underlined text, allow you to jump to  
Web pages, select special functions, or even place phone calls.  
To select links:  
Highlight the link and press the appropriate softkey.

AgION® Antimicrobial— Built-in Protection for Your  
Phone  
Motorola has incorporated AgION antimicrobial into the painted  
surfaces of your phone to help provide protection against a broad  
range of product damaging mold and mildew to help resist odor.  
Motorola is the first wireless phone manufacturer to incorporate  
AgION antimicrobial into the phone's painted surfaces.  
The antimicrobial technology is an example of Motorola's pursuit  
for innovation and creativity to produce the best quality wireless  
experience.  
The antimicrobial technology in the paint on Motorola phones  
helps provide protection against product damage caused by  
microbes, but does not extend such protection to the user.  
Versatile in application, the EPA-registered AgION additive is  
recommended for institutional, commercial and consumer  
applications. AgION antimicrobials are used in many settings  
including hospitals, offices, schools and food processing facilities.  
They can also be found in leading footwear, fabrics, appliances,  
water coolers and architectural hardware.  
1. The information provided in this document supersedes the  
general safety information in user’s guides published prior to  
May 1, 2006.  
Section 4A: Important Safety Information  
219  
 
Benefits of AgION1  
AgION antimicrobial technology helps provide protection  
against product damaging microbes on the painted surfaces  
of the phone.  
AgION antimicrobial is effective in protecting the product  
against a broad spectrum of microbes.  
AgION helps inhibit the ability of microbes to grow and  
spread on the painted surfaces of the phone.  
The active ingredient helps break down enzymes in the  
microbe, inhibiting its ability to reproduce and spread on the  
painted surfaces of the phone.  
Studies have shown that surfaces with AgION antimicrobial  
can reduce the amount of certain product damaging  
microbes by 99%.  
The AgION coating will protect the painted surfaces of the  
product against product damaging microbes for the life of  
the product.  
Safety  
AgION antimicrobial protection is based on silver, a safe, non-  
toxic additive to the phone paint. Silver is widely used as an  
antimicrobial agent in many environments and industries.  
AgION antimicrobial technology is safe to use. Thorough  
testing has shown the additive to be less toxic than table salt  
and less irritating than talcum powder.  
How It Works  
The technology continuously inhibits the growth of product  
damaging microbes on the phone's painted surfaces.The  
active ingredient helps break down enzymes in the microbe,  
inhibiting its ability to reproduce and spread on the painted  
surfaces on the phone.  
The active ingredient in AgION is silver, in the form of silver  
ions.  
Accreditation  
The AgION antimicrobial compound is registered with the  
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a preservative and  
bacteriostatic agent for use in the manufacturing of  
polymers and plastics.  
NSF, FDA-listed.  
1. The antimicrobial technology is applied only to the painted  
surfaces of the Motorola iDEN phones, thereby providing  
protection against damage to such surfaces caused by microbes,  
but does not extend such protection to the end user.

Operational Precautions  
For optimal mobile device performance and to be sure that  
human exposure to RF energy does not exceed the guidelines set  
forth in the relevant standards, always follow these instructions  
and precautions.  
Two-Way Radio Operation  
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.  
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).  
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.

Hearing Aid Compatibility With Mobile  
Phones  
A number of Sprint Nextel phones have been tested for hearing  
aid compatibility. When some wireless phones are used with  
certain hearing aids, users may detect a noise which can interfere  
with the effectiveness of the hearing aid.  
Some hearing aids are more “immune” than others to this  
interference noise, and phones can 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  
mobile phone and hearing aids to determine usability rating  
categories for both.  
Ratings have been developed for mobile phones to assist hearing  
aid users find phones that may be compatible with their hearing  
aid. Not all phones have been rated for compatibility with  
hearing aids. Phones that have been rated have a label with the  
rating(s) located on the box, and at  
www.motorola.com/accessibility.  
These ratings are not guarantees of compatibility. Results will  
vary depending on the user's hearing aid and individual type and  
degree of hearing loss. If a hearing aid is particularly vulnerable  
to interference, even a phone with a higher rating may still cause  
unacceptable noise levels in the hearing aid. Trying out the phone  
with your hearing aid is the best way to evaluate it for your  
personal needs.  
“M” Rating: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements for  
hearing aid compatibility and are likely to generate less  
interference to hearing aids than unrated phones. (M4 is the  
“better” or higher of the two ratings.) On those models with an  
extendable antenna, this rating is determined only with the  
antenna extended.  
228  
Section 4A: Important Safety Information  
     
“T” Rating: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are  
likely to be more usable with a hearing aid's telecoil (“T Switch” or  
“Telephone Switch”) than unrated phones. (T4 is the “better” or  
higher of the two ratings.) On those models with a telecoil mode  
setting, this rating is determined only with the phone so set. For  
setting instructions, see “Features for the Hearing Impaired” in  
the section entitled Advanced Calling Features”. Note that not all  
hearing aids have telecoils in them.  
Hearing aids may also be measured for immunity to interference  
from wireless phones and may have ratings similar to wireless  
phones. Ask your hearing health care professional for the rating  
of your hearing aid. Add the rating of your hearing aid and your  
phone to determine the estimated usability:  
Any combined rating equal to or greater than six offers  
excellent use.  
Any combined rating equal to five is considered normal use.  
Any combined rating equal to four is considered usable.  
Thus, if you use an M3 phone with a M3 hearing aid you will have  
a combined rating of six for “excellent use.” This methodology  
applies equally for T ratings.  
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. With the Sprint 30-day Risk-  
Free Guarantee, you may return the phone within 30 days of  
purchase for a full refund.

229  
Specific Absorption Rate Data  
This model wireless 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 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 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 the Canadian regulatory  
authorities is 1.6 W/kg.1 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. In general, the closer you are to a wireless  
base station, 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.  
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.  
230  
Section 4A: Important Safety Information  
 
The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for use  
at the ear is 1.24 W/kg, and when worn on the body, as described  
in this user guide, is 1.14 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ  
among phone models, depending upon available accessories and  
regulatory requirements).1  
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. 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 Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be

Information From the World Health  
Organization  
WHO Information Present scientific information does not  
indicate the need for any special precautions for the use of  
mobile phones. If you are concerned, you may want to limit your  
own or your children’s RF exposure by limiting the length of calls  
or by using hands-free devices to keep mobile phones away from  
your head and body.

California Perchlorate Label  
Some mobile phones use an internal, permanent backup battery  
on the printed circuit board that may contain very small amounts  
of perchlorate. In such cases, California law requires the following  
label:  
“Perchlorate Material - special handling may apply. See  
www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate.”  
There is no special handling required by consumer.

Smart Practices While Driving  
Drive Safe, Call SmartSM  
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.  
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:  
Get to know your Motorola mobile device 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 handsfree device. If possible, add an  
additional layer of convenience to your mobile device with  
one of the many Motorola Original™ handsfree accessories  
available today.  
Position your mobile device within easy reach. Be able to access  
your mobile device 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.  
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.  
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  
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.  
Section 4A: Important Safety Information  
235  
   
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.  
Use your mobile device to call for help. Dial 911 or other local  
emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident, or  
medical emergencies.  
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or  
television reception, which can be determined by turning the  
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the  
interference by one or more of the following measures:  
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.  
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.  
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different  
from that to which the receiver is connected.  
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for  
help.
