Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
. Your phone contains a
transmitter and a receiver. When it is ON, it receives and also sends out radio
frequency (RF) signals. When you communicate with your phone, the system
handling your call controls the power level at which your phone transmits.
Your Motorola phone is designed to comply with local regulatory requirements
in your country concerning exposure of human beings to RF energy.

Potentially Explosive Atmospheres.
Areas with potentially explosive
atmospheres are often but not always posted and can include fueling areas
such as below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, or
areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain dust, or
metal powders. When you are in such an area, turn off your wireless device,
and do not remove, install, or change batteries. In such areas, sparks can
occur and cause an explosion or fire.

Operational Precautions.
To assure optimal phone performance and make
sure human exposure to RF energy is within the guidelines set forth in the
relevant standards; always adhere to the following procedures.
o
External Antenna Care.
Use only the supplied Motorola approved
antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could
damage the phone. Do NOT hold the antenna when the phone is IN
USE. Holding the antenna affects call quality and may cause the phone
to operate at a higher power level than needed. In addition, use of
unauthorized antennas may result in non-compliance with the local
regulatory requirements in your country.

o
Phone Operation.
When placing or receiving a phone call, hold your
phone as you would a wireless telephone. To maintain compliance with
RF energy exposure guidelines, ensure the phone antenna is at least 8
inches (20 centimeters) from your body when transmitting.
o
Approved Accessories.
Use of accessories not approved by Motorola,
including but not limited to batteries and antennas, may cause your
phone to exceed RF energy exposure guidelines.
o
RF Energy Interference / Compatibilities.
Nearly every electronic
device is susceptible to RF energy interference from external sources if
inadequately shielded, designed, or otherwise configured for RF energy
compatibility. In some circumstances your phone may cause
interference.

Medical Devices
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 8 inches
(20centimeters) be maintained between the fixed wireless phone and a
pacemaker. Persons with pacemakers should:
1) Always keep the phone more than 8 inches (20 centimeters) from
your pacemaker when the phone is turned ON.
2) Turn OFF the phone 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
