Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
Your mobile device contains a transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and transmits RF energy. When you communicate with your mobile device, the system handling your call controls the power level at which your mobile device transmits.
1.The information provided in this document supersedes the general safety information in user’s guides published prior to May 1, 2006.
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.
External Antenna Care
If your mobile device has an external antenna, use only a
DO NOT hold the external antenna when the mobile device is IN USE. Holding the external antenna affects call quality and may cause the mobile device to operate at a higher power level than needed.
Product Operation

When using any data feature of the mobile device, with or without an accessory cable, position the mobile device and its antenna at least 2.5 centimetres (1 inch) from your body.
Using accessories not supplied or approved by Motorola may cause your mobile device to exceed RF energy exposure guidelines. For a list of
RF Energy Interference/
Compatibility
Nearly every electronic device is subject to RF energy interference from external sources if inadequately shielded, designed or otherwise configured for RF energy compatibility. In some circumstances your mobile device may cause interference with other devices.
Follow Instructions to Avoid Interference Problems
Turn off your mobile device in any location where posted notices instruct you to do so. These locations include hospitals or health care facilities that may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.
In an aircraft, turn off your mobile device whenever instructed to do so by airline staff. If your mobile device offers an airplane mode or similar feature, consult airline staff about using it in flight.
Pacemakers
If you have a pacemaker, consult your doctor before using this device.
Persons with pacemakers should observe the following precautions:
•ALWAYS keep the mobile device more than 20 centimetres (8 inches) from your pacemaker when the mobile device is turned ON.

•DO NOT carry the mobile device in the breast pocket.
•Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimise the potential for interference.
•Turn OFF the mobile device immediately if you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place.
Hearing Aids
Some mobile devices may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your hearing aid manufacturer or doctor to discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult your doctor or the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from RF energy.
