Radio Frequency (RF) Energy

Exposure to RF Energy
Your mobile device contains a transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and
transmits RF energy. When you communicate with your mobile device, the system handling
your network access controls the power level at which your mobile device transmits.
Your mobile device is designed to comply with local regulatory requirements in your
country concerning exposure of human beings to RF energy.
RF Energy Interference/Compatibility
Nearly every electronic device is subject to RF energy interference from external sources if
inadequately shielded, designed, or otherwise configured for RF energy compatibility. In
some circumstances, your mobile device may cause interference with other devices.
Follow Instructions to Avoid Interference Problems
Turn off your mobile device in any location where posted notices instruct you to do so, such
as hospitals or health care facilities.
In an aircraft, turn off your mobile device whenever instructed to do so by airline staff. If
your mobile device offers an airplane mode or similar feature, consult airline staff about
using it in flight.
Implantable Medical Devices
If you have a medical device, including an implantable medical device such as a pacemaker
or defibrillator, consult your healthcare provider and the device manufacturer's directions
before using this mobile device.
Persons with implantable medical devices should observe the following precautions:
• ALWAYS keep the mobile device more than 20 centimeters (8 inches) from the
implantable medical device when the mobile device is turned ON.
• Turn OFF the mobile device immediately if you have any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place.
Regulatory Information
Regulatory Information Your Motorola mobile device is designed to comply with national and international
regulatory requirements. For full compliance statements and details, please refer to the
regulatory information in your printed product guide.
Software Notices
Warning against unlocking the bootloader or altering a product's operating Software Copyright Notice
system software: Motorola strongly recommends against altering a product's operating
system, which includes unlocking the bootloader, rooting a device or running any operating
software other than the approved versions issued by Motorola and its partners. Such
alterations may permanently damage your product, cause your product to be unsafe and/or
cause your product to malfunction. In such cases, neither the product nor any damage
resulting therefrom will be covered by warranty.
Important FCC information: You must not make or enable any changes to the product
that will impact its FCC grant of equipment authorization. The FCC grant is based on the
product's emission, modulation, and transmission characteristics, including: power levels,
operating frequencies and bandwidths, SAR levels, duty-cycle, transmission modes (e.g.,
CDMA, GSM), and intended method of using the product (e.g., how the product is held or
used in proximity to the body). A change to any of these factors will invalidate the FCC
grant. It is illegal to operate a transmitting product without a valid grant.

Location Services

GPS & AGPS The following information is applicable to Motorola mobile devices that provide location
based functionality. Location sources can include GPS, AGPS and Wi-Fi.
Your mobile device may 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 may also use Assisted Global Positioning System (AGPS), which
obtains information from the cellular network to improve GPS performance. AGPS uses
your wireless service provider's 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 mobile device can also use Wi-Fi signals to determine your approximate location,
using information from known and available Wi-Fi networks.

Your Location

Location-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 location technology
