Using the Battery and Charger  
Use only Sprint-approved or Motorola-approved  
batteries and chargers with your device. The failure to  
use a Sprint-approved or Motorola-approved battery and  
charger may increase the risk that your device will  
overheat, catch fire, or explode, resulting in serious  
bodily injury, death, or property damage.  
WARNING!  
Sprint-approved or Motorola-approved batteries and  
accessories can be found at Sprint Stores or through  
Motorola; or call 1-888-242-4187 to order. They’re also  
available at www.sprint.com — click Accessories.  
Battery Capacity  
Your device is equipped with a Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery. It  
allows you to recharge your battery before it is fully drained.  
Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode,  
browser use, and other variables may affect battery life.  
Note:  
Be sure to watch the battery level indicator and charge the  
battery before it runs out of power.  
22  
Section 2B: Getting to Know Your Device  
       
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.  
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:  
Battery usage by children should be supervised.  
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.  
Section 2B: Getting to Know Your Device  
23  
It is normal over time for battery life to decrease, 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  
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.  
Never dispose of batteries in a fire because they may  
explode.  
WARNING!  
24  
Section 2B: Getting to Know Your Device

Removing the Battery  
To remove your battery:  
1. Make sure the device is powered off.  
2. Remove the battery door.  
3. Lift out the battery.  
Do not handle a damaged or leaking Li-Ion battery as  
you can be burned.  
WARNING!  
Charging the Battery  
Your device’s Li-Ion battery is rechargeable and should be  
charged as soon as possible so you can begin using your  
device.  
Keeping track of your battery’s charge is important. If your  
battery level becomes too low, your device automatically  
turns off, and you will lose all the information you were just  
working on. For a quick check of your device’s battery level,  
glance at the battery charge indicator (J) located in the  
upper-right corner of the display screen. If the battery charge  
is getting too low, the device sounds a warning tone and a  
warning screen appears.  
Always use a Sprint-approved or Motorola-approved desktop  
charger, travel charger, or vehicle power adapter to charge  
your battery.  
Section 2B: Getting to Know Your Device  
27  
 
Using the Charger  
To use the charger provided with your device:  
1. Plug the charger into an electrical outlet.  
2. Plug the other end of the charger into the mini USB  
port.  
Your display screen lets you know the battery is charging.  
With the approved Li-Ion battery, you can recharge the  
battery before it completely runs down.  
You can also charge your battery using a Motorola-approved  
USB cable and a computer that supports charging through its  
USB port.  
Tip:  
28  
Section 2B: Getting to Know Your Device  
 
If your battery has been completely drained, it cannot be  
charged via the USB cable plugged into the computer (this  
connection will only maintain current battery life). Use a wall  
charger or car charger to recharge the battery. Some  
computer USB ports provide a higher current than others, and  
will provide more rapid charging.  
Note:  
The mini-USB port does not support headphones. You must  
use 2.5 mm headphones or a Bluetooth mono or stereo  
headset.  
Inserting and Removing a miniSD Card  
Your device supports the use of an optional miniSD (Secure  
Digital) memory card (available separately) to expand the  
device's available memory space. You can use cards with up to  
32GB in memory, depending on market availability.  
Using memory cards allows you to easily store images, videos,  
music, and voice data in your device.  
Don’t bend or scratch your memory card. Keep it away from  
static electricity, water, and dirt.  
Note:  
The miniSD card and its adapter can be easily damaged by  
improper operation. Please be careful when inserting,  
removing, or handling them.  
At the time of this printing, 8GB is the largest commercially  
available miniSD card.  
Section 2B: Getting to Know Your Device

Be sure to use only recommended miniSD cards (64MB up to  
32GB depending on market availability). Using non-  
recommended miniSD cards could cause data loss and  
damage your device.  
To remove a miniSD card from your device:  
DO NOT remove your memory card while your device is using  
it or writing files on it. Doing so will result in loss or damage  
of data.

Synchronizing and Using Email  
In This Section  
Synchronizing  
Using Email  
You can synchronize information on your device over the air or  
while connected to your computer. Among other benefits, this  
feature allows you to access your email accounts from your  
device. This section describes the types of synchronization  
available, tells you how to use them, and tells you how to use  
the email feature available on your device.  
Before You Synchronize  
IMPORTANT  
Read and follow the instructions in the Setting Up Email  
guide to set up your email accounts on your device and set  
your synchronization options before attempting to use  
email, synchronize information, or set up your device to  
synchronize using a computer as described in this section.  
58  
Section 2F: Synchronizing and Using Email  
     
Synchronizing  
You can synchronize the information on your device in two  
ways:  
Over the air, wirelessly, from a server.  
Using your desktop computer and a USB cable connection  
or Bluetooth connection.  
The types of information you can synchronize depend on the  
type of connection you are making:  
If you are synchronizing over the air directly to your  
company’s Microsoft Exchange Server using the  
ActiveSync program on your device, you can synchronize  
email, contacts, calendar, and tasks.  
If you are synchronizing over the air to your company’s  
server using Good Mobile Messaging, you can  
synchronize email, contacts, calendar, tasks, and notes.  
If you are synchronizing over the air to your ISP or Web-  
based personal email account, you can synchronize email.  
If you are synchronizing using your computer and a USB  
cable or Bluetooth connection, you can synchronize email,  
contacts, calendar, and media. To do this, you must install,  
to your computer, the Microsoft Windows Mobile Device  
Center (for Vista) or Microsoft ActiveSync 4.5 or later (for  
Windows XP and prior Windows operating systems) from  
the Getting Started CD that came with your device.  
If you are synchronizing with a cable, you must use Microsoft  
Outlook 2003 or later. You cannot respond to email while the  
USB cable is disconnected.  
Section 2F: Synchronizing and Using Email  
59  
   
Synchronizing Over the Air  
You can use your device to synchronize email and other  
information over the air. To learn how to do this, see the  
Setting Up Email guide that came with your device. This guide  
helps you determine which over-the-air email set-up you  
want to use on your device, tells you how to set up email on  
your device, and how to synchronize over the air.  
Use the instructions in the Setting Up Email guide to set up  
your email accounts on your device and set your  
synchronization options before attempting to use email,  
synchronize information, or set up your device to synchronize  
using a computer.  
Synchronizing Using a Computer  
If you want to synchronize information over the air directly  
to your company’s Microsoft Exchange Server, follow the  
instructions for setting up an Exchange Server account in  
the Setting Up Email guide before following the instructions  
in this section.  
Note:  
Ensure that the Microsoft Windows and Microsoft  
Outlook versions are up to date before installing  
synchronization software.  
To synchronize information between your device and  
computer, you can use Microsoft Windows Mobile Device  
Center or Microsoft ActiveSync. Microsoft ActiveSync and  
Windows Mobile Device Center are on the Getting Started CD  
included with your device. When you insert the CD into your  
computer, it automatically determines which application you  
should use.  
60  
Section 2F: Synchronizing and Using Email  
   
These applications compare your device’s email messages,  
contact information, calendar appointments, and media files  
to those on your computer and then update to the most  
recent information.  
You can also use Windows Media Player version 10 or later to  
synchronize your media files (see “Using the Media Player” on  
page 96).  
Using Mobile® Device Center on Windows Vista™  
Microsoft Windows Mobile Device Center is the replacement  
for Microsoft ActiveSync on Windows Vista.  
Some versions of Windows Vista come with Windows Mobile  
Device Center already installed. If Windows Mobile Device  
Center is not available on your Windows Vista computer, you  
can install it from the CD that came with your phone.  
To set up synchronization in Windows Mobile Device Center:  
1. Connect your phone to your computer. Windows Mobile  
Device Center configures itself and then opens.  
2. On the license agreement screen, click Accept.  
3. On the Windows Mobile Device Center's Home screen,  
click Set up your device.  
Choose Connect without setting up your device if you only  
want to transfer media files, check for updates, and explore  
your phone but not sync Outlook information.  
Note:  
4. Select the items you want to synchronize then click Next.  
5. Enter a device name for your phone and click Set Up.  
When you finish the wizard, Windows Mobile Device Center  
synchronizes your phone automatically. Outlook email  
messages and other information appear on your device after  
synchronization.  
Section 2F: Synchronizing and Using Email

computer using the mini-USB cable. The device drivers  
install on your computer and then the Sync Setup  
Wizard automatically starts.  
2. Follow the prompts to complete the Sync Setup Wizard.  
You can configure an Exchange Server connection to  
synchronize directly with Exchange Server and Outlook  
email clients. The Sync Setup Wizard may prompt you for  
the name of the Exchange Server, your user name,  
password, and domain name. This is the same information  
you should have already used when setting up an Exchange  
Server account using the ActiveSync program on your  
device, as described in the Setting Up Email guide that came  
with your device.  
Note:  
62  
Section 2F: Synchronizing and Using Email

Controlling Your Roaming Experience  
Understanding Roaming  
Roaming is the ability to make or receive calls and transmit or  
receive data when you’re off the Sprint National Network.  
Your new MOTO Q 9c by Motorola works anywhere on the  
Sprint National Network and allows you to roam on other  
networks where we’ve implemented roaming agreements  
with other carriers.  
Recognizing the Roaming Icon  
Your device’s display screen always lets you know when  
you’re off the Sprint National Network. Any time you are  
roaming, the device displays the roaming icon (ã).  
Remember, when you are using your device off the Sprint  
National Network, always dial numbers using 11 digits (1 +  
area code + number).  
Tip:  
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 Sprint National Network.  
However, depending on the network available where you are  
roaming, certain features may not be available.  
If you’re on a call when you leave the Sprint National  
Network, your call is dropped. If your call is dropped in an area  
where you think Sprint service is available, turn your device  
off and on again to reconnect to the network. You will be  
charged roaming rates when accessing voicemail while  
roaming off the network.  
Note:  
76  
Section 2G: Customizing Your Device  
   
Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming  
When you are roaming off the Sprint National Network, you  
may not receive on-device 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.  
When you return to the network, voicemail notification will  
resume as normal.  
Setting Your Device’s Roam Mode  
Your device allows you to control your roaming capabilities.  
1. Press Start (left softkey).  
2. Select Settings > Phone Settings > Network.  
In the Network Selection field, use the  
Navigation key (S) to select your roaming mode:  
 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 device searches for an  
alternate system. This is the default setting.  
 Roam Only forces the device to seek a roaming  
system.

146  
Section 4A: Important Safety Information  
   
Hearing Aid Compatibility  
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.  
Section 4A: Important Safety Information  
147  
   
“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.  
More information about hearing aid compatibility may be found

and www.hearingloss.org/learn/cellphonetech.asp  
148  
Section 4A: Important Safety Information  
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.  
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.  
Section 4A: Important Safety Information  
149  
 
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public in the U.S.  
and Canada, it must be tested and certified to the FCC and  
Industry Canada that it does not exceed the limit established by  
each government for safe exposure. The tests are performed in  
positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body)  
reported to the FCC and available for review by Industry Canada.  
The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for use  
at the ear is 1.30 W/kg, and when worn on the body, as described  
in this user guide, is 1.30 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  
found on the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association  
(CTIA) Web site:  
or the Canadian Wireless Telecommunications Association  
(CWTA) Web site:

Understanding AGPS — In order to comply with emergency  
caller location requirements of the FCC, certain Motorola  
mobile devices 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.

Section 4A: Important Safety Information  
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  
157  
 
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.  
Use your mobile device 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.*  
Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency wireless  
assistance number when necessary. If you see a broken-down  
vehicle posing no serious hazard, a broken traffic signal, a  
minor traffic accident where no one appears injured, or a  
vehicle you know to be stolen, call roadside assistance or  
other special non-emergency wireless number.*  
* Wherever wireless phone service is available.
