Care And Maintenance

The PF1500 pagers are durable, reliable, and can provide years of dependable 
service; however, they are precision electronic products. Water and moisture, 
excessive heat, and extreme shock may damage the pager. Do not expose your 
pager to these conditions. If repair is required, the Motorola Service 
Organization, staffed with specially trained technicians, offers repair and 
maintenance facilities throughout the world. You can protect your pager 
purchase with an optional extended warranty covering parts and labor. For 
more information about warranties, please contact either your paging service 
provider, retailer, or Motorola, Inc. at 
1-800-548-9954. For repairs, call Motorola, Inc. at 1-800-548-9954 in the U.S. or

call 1-800-793-7834.

Cleaning Your Pager

To clean smudges and grime from the exterior of your pager, use a soft, non-
abrasive cloth moistened in a mild soap and water solution. Use a second cloth 
moistened in clean water to wipe the surface clean. Do not immerse in water. 
Do not use alcohol or other cleaning solutions.
