Specific Absorption Rate Data
SAR Data
This model meets international guidelines for exposure to radio
waves.
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed
not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves recommended
by international guidelines. These guidelines were developed by
the independent scientific organization ICNIRP and include safety
margins designed to assure the protection of all persons,
regardless of ag e and health.
The guidelines us e a unit of measurement known as the Sp ecific
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The ICNIRP SAR limit for mobiles devices
used by the general public is 2 W/kg and the highest SAR value for
this device when tested at the ear was 0.34 W/kg.
1
As mobile
devices offer a range of functio ns, they can be used in other
positions, such as on the body as described in this user guide.
2
In this case, the highest tested SAR value is 0.44 W/kg.
1
As SAR is measured utilizing the device’s highest transmitting
power, the actual SAR of this devic e while operating is typically
below that indicated above. This is due to automatic changes to the
power level of the device to ensure it only uses the minimum level
required to reach the network.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various
phones and at various positions, they all meet the governmental
requirements for safe exposure. Please note that improvements
to this product model could cause differences in the SAR value for
later products; in all cases, products are designed to be within the
guidelines.
The World Health Or ganization has stated that present s cientific
information do es not indicate the need for any speci al precautions
for the use of mobile devices. They note that if you want to reduce
your exposure then you can do so by limiting the length of calls or
using a “hands-free ” device to keep the mobile phone away from the
head and body.

Hearing Aid Compatibility w ith Mobile Phones
Hearing Aids
Some Motorola phones are measured for compatibility with hearing
aids. If the box for y our particular model has “Rated for H earing
Aids” printed on it, the following explanation applies.
When some mobile phon es 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 a lso vary in the
amount of interfe rence they generate.
The wireless telephone industry has developed ratings for some of
their mobile phone s, to assist hearing device user s 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.
The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the
user’s hearing device and heari ng loss. If your hearing device
happens to be vulne rable to interference, you may not be able to use
a rated phone succ essfully. Trying out the phone with your hearing
device is the best w ay 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 labele d. M4 is the better/higher of the two ra tings.
T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are
likely to be more usable with a he aring device’s telecoil (“T S witch”
or “Telephone Switch”) than unrated phones. T4 is the better/higher
of the two rati ngs. (Note that not a ll 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 he alth
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.
Information from the World Health Organiza tion
WHO Information
Present scientific information does not indicate the need for any
special precautions for the use of mobile phones. If you are
concerned, you may want to limit your own or your children’s RF

Smart Practices While Driving
Driving Safety
Drive Safe, Call Smart
SM
Check the laws and regulations on the use of mob ile devices
and their accessories in the areas wh ere you drive. Always
obey them. The use of these device s may be prohibited or
restricted in certain a reas. Go to www.motorola.com/callsmart
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 de vice and its features
such as speed dial and r edial. If available, these feat ures help
you to place your call without taking your attention off the road.
• When available, use a handsfree de vice.
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 device wit hin 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 voice mail answer it for you.
• Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving;
if necessary, suspend the cal l in heavy traffic or hazardous
weather conditions. Rain, sleet, snow, ice, and even heavy
traffic can be hazard ous.
• Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving.
Jotting down a “to d o” list or going through your address book
takes attention away from your primary responsibility—driving
safely.
• Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if pos sible, place calls
when your car is not moving or before pu lling 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 emo tional conversations that
may be distracting. Make people you are talking with aware you
are driving and suspend conversations that can divert your
attention away fro m the road.
• Use your mob ile device to call for h elp. Dial 911 or other local
emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident, or medical
emergencies.*
• Use your mobile device to help othe rs 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, as you would want others to do for you.*
• Call roadside assistance or a spec ial non-emergency
wireless assistance numb er 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 n on-emergency wireless nu mber.*
* W herever wireless phone service is available.
