Important: Read this information before using your wireless  
handheld phone.  
Exposure to Radio Frequency Signals  
Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low power radio  
transmitter and receiver. When it is on, it receives and also sends out  
radio frequency (RF) signals.  
In August 1996, The Federal Communications Commissions (FCC)  
adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for handheld wireless  
phones. Those guidelines are consistent with safety standards  
previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies:  
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) C95.1 1992  
National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement  
(NCRP) Report 86 1986  
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection  
(ICNIRP) 1996  
Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic evaluations  
of the relevant scientific literature. For example, over 120 scientists,  
engineers, and physicians from universities, government health  
agencies, and industry reviewed the available body of research to  
develop the ANSI Standard (C95.1).  
The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines (and those  
standards).  
Antenna Care  
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna.  
Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the  
phone and may violate FCC regulations.  
Phone Operation  
Normal Operation  
Hold the phone as you would any other telephone with the antenna  
pointed up and over your shoulder.  
5
S a fe t y In fo rm a t io n  
Tips on Efficient Operation  
For your phone to operate most efficiently:  
Extend your antenna fully.  
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.  
Batteries  
Caution: All batteries can cause property damage, injury, or burns if  
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 it is  
inside your pocket, purse, or other container with metal objects. Your  
batteries are packed with a protective cover. When the battery is  
detached from the phone, please use this cover for storing your  
batteries.  
Driving  
Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless telephones in the  
areas where your drive. Always obey them. Also, if using your phone  
while driving, please:  
Give full attention to driving—driving safely is your first  
responsibility.  
Use hands-free operation, if available.  
Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if  
driving conditions so require.  
Electronic Devices  
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals.  
However, certain electronic 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 (6") inches be maintained between a  
handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential  
interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are  
consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of  
Wireless Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers:  
6
Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from  
their pacemaker when the phone is on.  
Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.  
Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the  
potential for interference.  
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking  
place, turn your phone off immediately.  
Hearing Aids  
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In  
the event of such interference, you may want to consult your hearing aid  
manufacturer to discuss alternatives.  
Other Medical Devices  
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer  
of your device to determine if 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.  
Posted Facilities  
Turn your phone off in any facility where posted notices so require.  
Aircraft  
FCC regulations prohibit phone usage while in the air. Switch off your  
phone before boarding an aircraft.  
7
S a fe t y In fo rm a t io n  
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 and 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 would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle  
engine.  
For Vehicles 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.

Ab o u t Yo u r Ba t t e rie s  
Your Digital StarTAC phone can use either Lithium Ion (LiIon)  
or Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries. Batteries are  
available in these sizes: Slim, Standard, and Extra Capacity.  
Your phone can use two batteries at the same time. You can  
use any single battery or battery combination to t your  
needs. You can even extend your talk-time by attaching an  
auxiliary battery at any time, without interrupting your call.  
Battery Talk- and Standby-Times  
Talk-time refers to the time you can talk on your phone  
before the battery is fully discharged. Standby-time is the  
time that your phone is on but not used for talking.

Keep in Mind: Talking on the phone uses more power than  
leaving it idle. The more power you use for talking, the less  
you’ll have for standby-time, and vice-versa.  
For a complete measure of talk-time or standby-time, simply  
combine the time shown for your main battery to the time  
shown for your auxiliary battery.  
All times depend on the network configuration, signal  
strength, and the features selected. (Times are approximate  
for the first 500 charging cycles.)  
11  
Your phone will operate more efficiently in Digital mode. If  
the D icon is on, your phones performance will be reflected  
in the digital section of the table on page 11. If the D icon is  
not on, refer to the Analog section of the table.  
Storing and Disposing of Batteries  
To prolong the life of your batteries, do not expose them to  
temperatures below -10°C (14°F) or above 45°C (113°F).  
Always take your phone with you when you leave your car.  
To dispose of batteries, check with your local recycling center  
for a battery recycler near you. Never dispose of batteries in  
a re.  
Caution: To prevent injuries or burns, do not allow metal  
objects to contact or short-circuit the battery terminals.  
12  
Re m o vin g a n d At t a c h in g  
Ba t t e ry Co ve rs  
Your phones batteries are shipped uncharged and tted with  
protective covers. Before you install the batteries, remove  
these covers, and save them for storing unused batteries.

Battery Charging Tips  
To ensure that you enjoy maximum battery life and use your  
battery to its fullest capacity:  
Always use Motorola approved battery chargers.  
For the best results, Li-Ion batteries should be  
charged using the E• P™ Desktop Charger, or your  
phones internal charger.  
The battery should be at or near room temperature  
when charging.  
When you don’t intend to use a battery for a while,  
store it uncharged in a cool, dark, dry place, such as  
a refrigerator.  
Do not leave a NiMH battery connected to any  
charger for longer than 24 hours.

Caller ID allows you to view the number of the calling party  
in the phones display while the phone is ringing. Your Digital  
StarTAC™ cellular phone also stores the telephone numbers  
of the last 20 incoming calls.  
If the callers phone number matches a phone number stored  
in the phones memory, the phone automatically displays the  
name associated with that phone number. The display of the  
name-tag or phone number is controlled through your setting  
of the Name Preferencefeature. (See ”Phone Book Display  
Preferences” on page 52.)  
If you subscribe to call waiting and receive a call while  
another call is in progress, you hear a call waiting tone and  
the callers number appears on the display. The number will  
automatically be stored and can be viewed after ending the  
call, using the procedure described on the next page.

If the caller has restricted transmission of the phone number,  
your phone will display Private. If the Calling Number ID  
information is not available to the cellular network, your  
phone will display No ID. This information will not be in the

Reference Information  
Accessory Options  
An exciting line of StarTAC phone accessories, now smaller  
and lighter than ever, can enhance and personalize your  
cellular experience.  
Batteries  
Lithium Ion batteries are different from other batteries in that  
you can leave them in the charger as long as you like. Nickel  
Metal Hydride batteries should not be left in the charger for  
more than 24 hours.  
If your cellular phone is quickly becoming your companion, an  
optional auxiliary battery will give your phone a boost.  
Auxiliary batteries attach to the back of your phone and  
provide extra talk-time in addition to your main battery.  
See page 19-22 for battery talk-times and standby-times.  
Cigarette Lighter Adapter  
With the cigarette lighter adapter, you can power your phone  
and charge your phones battery directly from your vehicles  
cigarette lighter! In some cars, the engine must be running in  
order for the cigarette lighter to operate.  
88  
Desktop Charger (AC Adapter required)  
The desktop charger is designed for optimal performance and  
compatibility with Motorolas new generation of cellular  
telephones. The desktop chargers front pocket can charge  
batteries while they are attached to your phone, and the rear  
pocket can charge batteries separately. Now its easy to  
rotate batteries and always have a charged spare.  
Holster  
The StarTAC phone is so small and light, its positively  
wearable. Slip it in and clip it on—for the ultimate in high-  
tech fashion.  
Headset  
The convenient headset provides both an earphone and  
microphone in one small piece for simple hands-free and  
private telephone conversations. The headset plugs directly  
into the jack on the top of your phone, so that you can wear  
your phone and move freely. Place the foam cover on the  
earpiece for a more comfortable fit.  
When you use the headset, your phones intelligent circuitry  
automatically enables the Multiple Key Answer feature  
(page 82), so you can answer calls with any key on the side  
of your phone. You can even use the Smart Button to end  
calls. You’ll never need to open your phone to take a call.  
89  
With the headset in place, closing the phone will not end a  
call. This allows you to store the phone conveniently during  
the call. To end a call while using the headset, press the  
Smart Button twice or press º.  
PCMCIA Modems  
These compact modems are made for mobility and plug  
directly into the bottom of your StarTAC phone, so you can  
send and receive FAXes, e-mail and data. The PCMCIA  
modem works with data devices using a standard PCMCIA  
Type II slot.  
Hands-Free Vehicle Kit  
The optional Hands-Free Kits give you the convenience of  
hands-free, speaker phone operation while in your car. Full  
duplex operation lets you simultaneously talk and listen, so  
both parties can interrupt each other for a normal sounding  
conversation.  
The Hands-Free Kit powers the phone and charges its battery  
whenever your cars engine is running. An optional external  
antenna can improve your signal reception and boost  
performance.

information about batteries and charging. Be sure to press and hold ¡.  
Q. My battery didnt last as long as I expected. What can I do to extend battery life?  
A. Your batterys “talk-time” and “standby-time” are relative measurements of the batterys capacity. The more  
you talk on the phone, the less standby-time you will have, and vice versa.  
To get the most from your battery, allow it to charge fully. To charge the battery to 100% of its capacity,  
leave it in the charger for an extra hour after the chargers light turns green.  
Also remember that battery performance varies greatly between digital mode and analog mode. See the  
table on page 11.  
Certain features demand power from your battery and reduce battery life. If you have selected the  
Automatic Display of Individual Call Timer feature, the display uses battery power to remain active during  
each call. Turn this feature off to conserve battery energy. (See page 56 for more information on this  
feature.)  
Exposing your battery to extreme temperatures—below -10°C (14°F) or above 45°C (113°F)can shorten  
battery life. Batteries are especially sensitive to high temperature extremes. As a good rule, always take  
your phone with you when you leave your car.  
Q. The display says, “Locked.” How do I unlock my phone?  
A. Enter the last three digits of your cellular number. If that doesnt work, use the factory preset lock code: 123.  
If all else fails, call your service provider (the company that sends you your monthly cellular bill) for  
assistance. (See ”Using Lock/Security Features” on page 63 for more information on Security Features.)  
Q. I tried to place a call and received a fast busy signal.  
A. This sound means that the cellular system did not process your call. For example, the cellular system may be  
overloaded with call attempts. To redial the number, press æ before ending your call attempt, or press  
º and try the call again later. (See ”Redialing a Number” on page 25 for more information on redialing.)  
Q. I tried to place a call and received an alternating high/low tone.  
A. This sound means your call did not reach the cellular system. You may have dialed the number too soon after  
turning the phone on. Wait until the NS indicator goes out before placing a call.  
An alternating tone may also indicate that your phones signal is blocked. Make sure the antenna is fully  
extended and you’re clear of any obstructions such as bridges, parking garages, or tall buildings.  
Q. I am in my home service area, but the Roam indicator is on.  
A. If your phone is programmed with more than one telephone number, you might not have switched to the  
number appropriate for your current location. Press , »,¬ to switch to the other number. See  
”Switching Between Numbers” on page 77 for more information on multiple phone numbers.  
Q. I tried to listen to my Voice Mail (or use a paging service, a calling card, etc.) but nothing happened.  
A. You have probably turned off the Scratchpad tones. Place your call, enter the access numbers when  
prompted by the recording, then press ,æ. To avoid this problem in the future, follow the directions  
on page 62 to turn the Scratchpad tones on.  
Q. What if my phone beeps several times after power up?  
A. The phone is programmed for Call ReceiveOff. See ”Blocking Incoming Calls” on page 81 for information.  
Q. I tried to place a calling card call using the internal Phone Book, but it didn’t work.  
A. You may have turned off your Scratchpad tones. Follow the directions in ”Turning Scratchpad Tones On and  
Off” on page 62 to turn the Scratchpad tones on. Check that you stored your calling card information in the  
correct order, and make sure the groups of numbers are separated by pauses. The easiest way to correct the  
sequence may be to start from scratch. Follow the instructions on page 47, enter your calling card  
information again, and store it in the same memory location as your previous attempt.  
Also keep in mind that when using your calling card, you must enter the number you are calling with the  
area code, but without the initial “1.” Check with your long distance carrier for details on using your calling  
card.  
Q. My phone was stolen. What should I report and to whom?  
A. Report a stolen phone to the police and to your service provider (the company that sends you your monthly  
cellular service bills).
