GPS & AGPSGPS & AGPSYour mobile device can use Global Positioning System (GPS) signals for 
location-based applications. GPS uses satellites controlled by the U.S. government 
that are subject to changes implemented in accordance with the Department of 
Defense policy and the Federal Radio Navigation Plan. These changes may affect 
the performance of location technology on your mobile device.
Your mobile device can also use  Assisted Global Positioning System  (AGPS), which 
obtains information from the cellular network to improve GPS performance. AGPS 
uses your wireless service providers network and therefore airtime, data charges, 
and/or additional charges may apply in accordance with your service plan. Contact 
your wireless service provider for details.Your LocationLocation-based information includes information that can be used to determine the 
approximate location of a mobile device. Mobile devices which are connected to a 
wireless network transmit location-based information. Devices enabled with GPS or 
AGPS technology also transmit location-based information. Additionally, if you use 
applications that require location-based information (e.g. driving directions), such 
applications transmit location-based information. This location-based information 
may be shared with third parties, including your wireless service provider, 
applications providers, Motorola, and other third parties providing services.Emergency CallsWhen you make an emergency call, the cellular network may activate the AGPS 
technology in your mobile device to tell the emergency responders your approximate 
location.
AGPS has limitations and 
might not work in your area
. Therefore:
Always tell the emergency responder your location to the best of your ability; andRemain on the phone for as long as the emergency responder instructs you.Performance TipsGo outside and away from underground locations, covered vehicles, structures 
with metal or concrete roofs, tall buildings, and foliage. Indoor performance 
might improve if you move closer to windows, but some window sun shielding 
films can block  satellite signals.
Move away from radios, entertainment equipment, and other electronic devices.NavigationNavi gati onWhen using navigation features, note that mapping information, directions and 
other navigational data may contain inaccurate or incomplete data. In some 
countries, complete information may not be available. Therefore, you should visually 
confirm that the navigational instructions are consistent with what you see. All 
drivers should pay attention to road conditions, closures, traffic, and all other factors 
that may impact driving. Always obey posted road signs.Smart Practices While DrivingDrivi ng Sa fe tyCheck the laws and regulations on the  use of mobile devices and their 
accessories in the areas where you drive. Always obey them. The use of 
these devices may be prohibited or restricted in certain areas—for 
example, handsfree use only may be required. Go to www.motorola.com/callsmart
 (in English only) for more information.
Your mobile device lets you communicate by voice and data—almost anywhere, 
anytime, wherever wireless service is available and safe conditions allow. When 
driving a car, driving is your first responsibility. If you choose to use your mobile 
device while driving, remember the following tips: Get to know your Motorola mobile  device and its features such as speed 
dial, redial and voice dial. 
If available, these features help you to place your 
call without taking your attention off the road.
 When available, use a handsfree device. 
If possible, add an additional layer 
of convenience to your mobile device with one of the many Motorola Original 
handsfree accessories available today.
 Position your mobile dev ice within easy reach. 
Be able to access your 
mobile device without removing your eyes from the road. If you receive an 
incoming call at an inconvenient time, if possible, let your voicemail answer it for 
you.
 Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving; if necessary,  suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions. 
Rain, 
sleet, snow, ice, and even heavy traffic can be hazardous. 
						

							50 Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. 
Jotting down a 
“to do” list or going through your address book takes attention away from your 
primary responsibility—driving safely.
 Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when your 
car is not moving or bef ore pulling into traffic. 
If you must make a call while 
moving, dial only a few numbers, check the road and your mirrors, then continue.
 Do not engage in stressful or emot ional conversations that may be 
distracting. 
Make people you are talking with aware you are driving and 
suspend conversations that can divert your attention away from the road.
 Use your mobile device to call for help. 
Dial 911 or other local emergency 
number in the case of fire, traffic accident, or medical emergencies (wherever 
wireless phone service is available).
 Use your mobile device to help others in emergencies. 
If you see an auto 
accident, crime in progress, or other serious emergency where lives are in 
danger, call 911 or other local emergency number (wherever wireless phone 
service is available), as you would want others to do for you.
 Call roadside assistance or a  special non-emergency wireless 
assistance number when necessary. 
If you see a broken-down vehicle 
posing no serious hazard, a broken traffic signal, a minor traffic accident where 
no one appears injured, or a vehicle you know to be stolen, call roadside 
assistance or other special non-emergency wireless number (wherever wireless 
phone service is available).
Privacy & Data SecurityPrivac y  & Da ta Se curi tyMotorola understands that privacy and data security are important to everyone. 
Because some features of your mobile device may affect your privacy or data 
security, please follow these recommendations to enhance protection of your 
information: Monitor access
—Keep your mobile device with you and do not leave it where 
others may have unmonitored access. Lock your device’s keypad where this 
feature is available.
 Keep software up to date
—If Motorola or a software/application vendor 
releases a patch or software fix for your mobile device that updates the device’s 
security, install it as soon as possible.
 Secure Personal Information
—Your mobile device can store personal 
information in various locations including your SIM card, memory card, and 
phone memory. Be sure to remove or clear all personal information before you 
recycle, return, or give away your device. You can also backup your personal data 
to transfer to a new device.
Note: 
For information on how to backup or wipe data from your mobile device, 
go to www.motorola.com/support
 Online accounts
—Some mobile devices provide a Motorola online account 
(such as MOTOBLUR). Go to your account for information on how to manage the 
account, and how to use security features such as remote wipe and device 
location (where available).
 Applications
—Install third party applications from trusted sources only. 
Applications can have access to private information such as call data, location 
details and network resources.
 Location-based information
—Location-based information includes 
information that can be used to determine the approximate location of a mobile 
device. Mobile phones which are connected to a wireless network transmit 
location-based information. Devices enabled with GPS or AGPS technology also 
transmit location-based information. Additionally, if you use applications that 
require location-based information (e.g. driving directions), such applications 
transmit location-based information. This location-based information may be 
shared with third parties, including your wireless service provider, applications 
providers, Motorola, and other third parties providing services.
 Other information your device may transmit
—Your device may also transmit 
testing and other diagnostic (including location-based) information, and other 
non-personal information to Motorola or other third-party servers. This 
information is used to help improve products and services offered by Motorola.
If you have further questions regarding how the use of your mobile device may 
impact your privacy or data security, please contact Motorola at

RecyclingRecyc lin gMobile Devices & AccessoriesPlease do not dispose of mobile devices or electrical accessories (such as chargers, 
headsets, or batteries) with your household waste, or in a fire. These items should 
be disposed of in accordance with the national collection and recycling schemes 
operated by your local or regional authority. Alternatively, you may return unwanted 
mobile devices and electrical accessories to any Motorola Approved Service Center 
in your region. Details of Motorola approved national recycling schemes, and further 
information on Motorola recycling activities can be found at: www.motorola.com/recyclingPackaging & Product GuidesProduct packaging and product guides should only be disposed of in accordance with 
national collection and recycling requirements. Please contact your regional 
authorities for more details.California Perchlorate LabelPe rchl orate  Lab elSome mobile phones use an internal, permanent backup battery on the printed 
circuit board that may contain very small amounts of perchlorate. In such cases, 
California law requires the following label:
Perchlorate Material – special handling may apply when the battery is recycled or 
disposed of. See 
www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate
There is no special handling required by consumers.Hearing Aid Compatibility with Mobile 
PhonesHeari ng Ai d Comp atib ili tySome Motorola phones are measured for compatibility with hearing aids. If the box 
for your particular model has “Rated for Hearing Aids” printed on it, the following 
explanation applies.
When some mobile phones are used near some hearing devices (hearing aids and 
cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some 
hearing devices are more immune than others to this interference noise, and phones 
also vary in the amount of interference they generate. 
						

							52The wireless telephone industry has developed ratings for some of their mobile 
phones, to assist hearing device users in finding phones that may be compatible 
with their hearing devices. Not all phones have been rated. Phones that are rated 
have the rating on their box or a label on the box. To maintain the published Hearing 
Aid Compatibility (HAC) rating for this mobile phone, use only the original equipment 
battery model.
The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the user’s hearing 
device and hearing loss. If your hearing device happens to be vulnerable to 
interference, you may not be able to use a rated phone successfully. Trying out the 
phone with your hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal 
needs.M-Ratings:
 Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to 
generate less interference to hearing devices than phones that are not labeled. M4 
is the better/higher of the two ratings.
T-Ratings:
 Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to be more 
usable with a hearing device’s telecoil (“T Switch” or “Telephone Switch”) than 
unrated phones. T4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. (Note that not all hearing 
devices have telecoils in them.)
Hearing devices may also be measured for immunity to this type of interference. 
Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you find 
results for your hearing device. The more immune your hearing aid is, the less likely 
you are to experience interference noise from mobile phones.
