Safety and General  
SAFETY AN D G EN ERAL IN FO RM ATIO N  
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON SAFE AND EFFICIENT  
OPERATION. READ THIS INFORMATION BEFORE USING  
YOUR INTEGRATED MULTI-SERVICE PORTABLE RADIO.  
For the safe and efficient operation of your radio, observe these  
guidelines.  
Your radio contains a transmitter and a receiver. When it is ON, it  
receives, and also transmits, radio frequency (RF) energy. The  
radio operates in the frequency range of 806MHz to 866MHz,  
and employs digital modulation techniques. When you use your  
radio, the system handling your call controls the power level at  
which your radio transmits. The power level may typically vary  
over a range from 0.01 of a watt to 0.6 of a watt.  
Expos u r e t o Radio Fr equ en cy En er gy  
In August 1996 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)  
of the United States with its action in Report and Order FCC 96-  
326 adopted an updated safety standard for human exposure to  
radio frequency electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regu-  
lated transmitters. In addition, the International Commission on  
Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNRP) has established  
standards containing RF exposure guidelines. Motorola iDEN  
products comply with these standards.  
Ef fi cien t Radio Oper at ion  
The following practices will enable your radio to operate at the  
lowest power level, consistent with satisfactory call quality.  
When placing or receiving a phone call, or using the group or pri-  
vate call functions with the Group/Private Speaker OFF (muted  
speaker icon visible in the display), hold the radio as you would a  
telephone. Speak directly into the mouthpiece and position the  
antenna up and over your shoulder.  
When using the radio as a traditional two-way  
radio while making group or private calls with  
the Group/Private Speaker ON (no speaker  
icon visible in the display), hold the radio in a  
vertical position with the microphone one to  
two inches away from the lips.  
GETTING STARTED  
31  
i370XL/i470  
Safety and General  
DO NOT hold the antenna when the radio is “IN USE”. Hold-  
ing the antenna affects call quality and may cause the radio to  
operate at a higher power level than needed.  
An t en n a Con s ider at ion s  
Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized  
antennas, modifications, or attachments could impair call quality,  
damage the radio, or result in violation of ICNRP or FCC regula-  
tions.  
In t er f er en ce t o Medical an d Per s on al  
El ect r on ic Devices  
Most electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy. How-  
ever, RF energy from the radio transmitter may affect inade-  
quately shielded electronic equipment.  
Consult the manufacturer(s) of your medical and personal elec-  
tronic device(s) (for example. - a pacemaker or a hearing aid) to  
determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF  
energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this  
information.  
Turn your radio off in health care facilities when any regulations  
posted in the area instruct you to do so. Hospitals and health care  
facilities may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF  
energy.  
In t er f er en ce t o Ot h er El ect r on ic  
Devices  
RF energy may affect improperly or inadequately shielded elec-  
tronic operating and entertainment systems in motor vehicles.  
Check with the manufacturer or representative to determine if  
these systems are adequately shielded from external RF energy.  
Also check with the manufacturer of any equipment that has  
been added to the vehicle.  
Turn your radio off before boarding any aircraft to prevent possi-  
ble interference to aircraft systems. Regulations of the United  
States Federal Aviation Administration prohibit use when the  
plane is in the air and require you have permission from a crew  
member to use your radio while the plane is on the ground.

Safety and General  
Bat t er ies  
All batteries can cause property damage, injury  
or burns if a conductive material such as jewelry,  
keys or beaded chains touch the exposed termi-  
nals. The material may complete an electrical  
circuit (short circuit) and become quite hot.  
Exercise care in handling any charged battery,  
particularly when placing it inside your pocket,  
purse or other container. To protect against a  
short circuit when the battery is detached from  
the phone, keep the battery in the insulated pro-  
tective case provided with the battery.  
!
C a u t i o n  
Us e Wh il e Dr ivin g  
Check the laws and regulations on the use of telephones in the  
areas where you drive. Always obey them.  
When using the phone while driving, please:  
• give full attention to driving and to the road;  
• use hands free operation, if available; and  
• pull off the road and park before making or  
!
answering a call if driving conditions so  
require.  
C a u t i o n  
Ch il dr en  
Do not allow children to play with your radio. It  
is not a toy. Children could hurt themselves or  
others (by poking themselves or others in the  
eye with the antenna, for example). Children  
also could damage the radio, or make calls that  
increase your service bills.

Safety and General  
Bl as t in g Ar eas an d Expl os ives  
DO NOT operate your radio near electric blast-  
ing caps, or in a blasting area, to avoid the possi-  
bility of triggering an explosion. Turn your radio  
OFF when in a “blasting area” or in areas where  
such requirements are posted.  
!
W A R N I N G  
Pot en t ial l y Expl os ive At mos ph er es  
Turn your radio OFF and do not replace the  
battery when in any area with a potentially  
explosive atmosphere. It is rare, but your radio  
!
or its accessories could generate sparks which  
might trigger an explosion.  
W A R N I N G  
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere  
are often, but not always, clearly marked. They  
include areas such as below deck on boats, fuel  
or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and  
areas where the air contains chemicals or parti-  
cles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.  
Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid,  
or explosives in the compartment of your vehi-  
cle which contains your radio or accessories.  
Vehicles powered by liquefied petroleum gas  
(such as propane or butane) must comply with  
the National Fire Protection Standard (NFPA-  
58). For a copy of this standard, contact the  
National Fire Protection Association. One Bat-

For Veh icl es Equ ipped wit h an Air Bag  
An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT  
place objects, including communication equip-  
ment, in the area over the air bag or in the air  
bag deployment area. If the communication  
equipment is improperly installed and the air  
bag inflates, this could cause serious injury.  
!
W A R N I N G  
Installation of vehicle communication equip-  
ment should be performed by a professional  
installer/technician qualified in the require-  
ments for such installations. An air bags size,  
shape, and deployment area can vary by vehicle  
make, model, and front compartment configura-  
tion (for example, bench seat vs. bucket seats).  
Contact the vehicle manufacturers corporate  
headquarters, if necessary, for specific air bag  
information for the vehicle make, model, and  
front compartment configuration involved in  
your communication equipment installation.  
CLEAN IN G IN STRUCTIO N S  
Clean the external surfaces with a damp cloth, using a mild  
solution of dishwashing detergent and water. Some household  
cleaners may contain chemicals which could seriously damage  
the unit. Avoid the use of any petroleum-based solvent cleaners.  
Also, avoid applying liquids directly on the portable unit.
