Safety Information  
Important: Read this information before using your wireless mobile  
phone.  
Exposure to Radio Frequency Signals  
Your wireless mobile telephone is a low power radio transmitter and  
receiver. When it is ON, it receives and also sends out radio frequency  
(RF) signals.  
International agencies have set standards and recommendations for the  
protection of public exposure to RF electromagnetic energy.  
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection  
(ICNIRP)1996  
Verband Deutscher Elektrotechniker (VDE) DIN-0848  
United States Federal Commission, Radio Frequency Exposure  
Guidelines (1996)  
National Radiological Protection Board of the United Kingdom,  
GS 11,1988  
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95. 1-1992  
National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements  
(NCRP). Report 86  
Department of Health and Welfare Canada. Safety Code 6  
These standards are based on extensive scientific review. For example,  
over 120 scientists, engineers, and physicians from universities,  
government health agencies, and industry reviewed the available body  
of research to develop the updated ANSI standard.  
The design of your phone complies with these standards when used as  
Antenna Care  
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna.  
Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage  
the phone and may violate local agency regulations.  
7
     
Phone Operation  
Normal Operation: Hold the phone as you would any other telephone.  
Rotate the antenna so that it points straight up. The antenna will click  
into place in one of two positions designed for left- or right-handed use.  
Make sure the antenna is fully extended. The antenna should be vertical  
to the ground and have a clear unobstructed view of the sky.  
Tips on Efficient Operation: For your phone to operate most efficiently:  
Rotate and extend your antenna fully.  
Make sure the antenna has a clear unobstructed view of the sky.  
Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when the phone is in use.  
Contact with the antenna affects call quality and may cause the  
phone to operate at a higher power level than otherwise needed.  
Do not wear the phone on your body while making calls with the  
headset accessory in satellite mode. Wearing the phone on the  
body can interfere with proper phone operation, since the  
antenna requires a clear unobstructed view of the sky to access  
®
the Iridium satellite network.  
Batteries  
Caution: All batteries can cause property damage, injury or burns if a  
conductive material, such as jewelry, keys or beaded chains, touches  
exposed terminals. The material may complete an electrical circuit and  
become quite hot. To protect against such unwanted current drain,  
exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when  
placing it inside your pocket, purse or other container with metal  
objects. When the battery is detached from the phone, your batteries  
are packed with a protective battery cover; please use this cover for  
storing your batteries when not in use.  
Driving  
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 driving—driving 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.

Safety Information  
     
Electronic Devices  
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  
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 it is 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.  
Safety Information  
9
 
Posted Facilities  
Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted notices so require.  
Aircraft  
Airline regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Check and  
comply with the policy of your airline regarding the use of your phone  
while the aircraft is on the ground.  
Switch OFF your phone before boarding an aircraft.  
Blasting Areas  
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.  
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres  
Turn your phone OFF and do not remove your battery when you are in  
any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. Obey all signs and  
instructions. Sparks from your battery in such areas could cause an  
explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.  
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always  
clearly marked. They include, but are not limited to: fueling areas such  
as gasoline stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or  
storage facilities; areas where fuel odors are present (for example, 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 normally would be advised to turn off your vehicle  
engine.  
ForVehicles Equipped with an Air Bag  
An air bag inflates 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 inflates, serious injury could  
result.

Getting Started  
           
What Is a SIM Card?  
Your SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card is a  
small smart card that contains your phone number,  
service details, and memory for storing phone book  
entries and messages. This means you can use  
your SIM card with any phone for the GSM system  
or any Motorola product for the Iridium satellite  
system, and all calls go on your account.  
Note: Your phone has limited functionality without  
the SIM card.  
GSM SIM Card Capability  
If you already have a GSM SIM card and your  
service provider has a roaming agreement with the  
Iridium satellite system, you can use it in your  
satellite telephone. You need an optional Cellular  
Cassette to access your local cellular/PCS service.  
Note: If you are using a GSM SIM card, you may  
not have access to certain features that are specific  
to the Iridium satellite system, and vice versa.  
SIM Card Protection  
You may want to keep your SIM card in your wallet  
or purse when you are not using your satellite  
phone. This helps keep your personal information  
secure and gives you access to your service even if  
your phone is not available. If you forget your  
phone, insert your SIM card into a friend’s phone to  
access your personal service.  
Caution: Do not bend or scratch your SIM card,  
and avoid exposing your card to static electricity,  
water, or dirt.  
Getting Started

Charging the Battery  
Any battery that hasn’t been used for a month or  
more—including new batteries—should be  
charged for about 3–4 hours before use.  
Using the Internal Charger  
A battery charger is built right into your phone.  
Using either the travel charger or auto accessory  
adapter, you can plug the handset directly into a  
power source to charge the installed battery.  
1. Connect the travel charger or auto  
accessory adapter to the power connector at  
the base of the phone.  
2. Plug the travel charger or auto accessory  
adapter into the appropriate power source.  
The phone beeps, flashes the q (battery  
charge) indicator, and displays Charging  
Battery:

place the phone in charge-only mode.  
If the phone is powered off, it automatically  
enters charge-only mode.  
Getting Started

Note: You can still place and answer calls while  
using the internal charger. If you wish to place or  
answer a call:  
Press S to exit charge-only mode and  
return to normal operation.  
Remember that talking on the phone uses  
power, so charging takes more time.  
Using the Desktop Charger  
You can use the front compartment of the desktop  
charger to charge the battery in your phone. You  
can also charge a spare battery in the rear  
compartment. The front compartment charges first,  
then the charger switches to the rear compartment.  
To charge:  
1. Connect the travel charger to the desktop  
charger.  
2. Plug the travel charger into the appropriate  
power source.  
3. Insert your phone with a battery installed.  
4. Insert a spare battery in the rear

Battery Information  
Maximizing Battery Life  
Caution: To prevent injuries or burns, do not allow  
metal objects to contact or short circuit the battery  
terminals.  
To ensure maximum battery life and use your  
battery to its fullest capacity, observe the following  
guidelines.  
Always use Motorola-approved battery  
chargers.  
Always use Motorola-approved batteries  
(Standard, High Capacity, Ultra High  
Capacity battery).  
Maintain the battery at or near room  
temperature when charging.

OrganizingYour Phone Book  
Each name and phone number in your phone book  
is stored in a numbered memory location. The  
satellite phone has two types of memory—phone  
memory and SIM card memory.

SIM card capacity varies depending upon the card issued by  
your service provider.  
Your phone’s memory can seem overwhelming if  
you do not have a strategy for organizing your  
phone book. Begin setting up your phone book by  
asking yourself three questions:  
Which numbers do I call most?  
Make a list of the numbers you call most frequently.  
You will probably want to store these numbers in the  
first nine memory locations of your phone book. You  
can then dial them with a single keystroke by using  
one-touch dialing (satellite mode only).  
78  
Managing the Phone Book  
         
When do I use these numbers?  
Group the numbers on the list according to when  
you use them. Most people call a different set of  
numbers during the day than they do in the evening  
and on weekends. You can switch one-touch  
dialing to your phone’s memory (locations 1–9),  
your SIM card’s memory (locations 101–109), or to  
your fixed dial list (locations 1–9). Store your  
evening and weekend numbers on one type of  
memory and your daytime numbers on another.  
Which numbers do I need to keep  
secure?  
Use your SIM card to store the numbers you need  
to keep secure, like the numbers of friends and  
family members. You can remove your SIM card  
and keep it securely in your wallet or purse when  
you are not using your phone. If you wish, you can  
even require a PIN code every time your SIM card  
is inserted into any phone. (To deactivate your PIN  
numbers, like business associates and travel  
agents in your phone’s memory.  
Tip: If you have  
many entries,  
group them in  
blocks of ten to  
make them  
easier to find.

When you call automated systems, a recorded  
message prompts you for numbers such as PIN  
numbers and account numbers. You can store  
these numbers in the same memory location as the  
automated system’s access number. Separate the  
numbers with “pauses”—special characters that tell  
your phone to wait a few seconds before sending  
additional numbers—and store the string in the  
same way you would other numbers.  
Tip: You can  
store 32  
characters in a  
phone memory  
location, or 20  
characters in a  
SIM card

become available. The exact intervals that your  
phone switches modes and checks for preferred  
service varies depending on your SIM card. Check
