Software Notices

Warning against unlocking the bootloader or altering a product's operating system
Software Notices
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

The following information is applicable to Motorola mobile devices that provide location based
Location
functionality. Location sources can include GPS, AGPS and Wi-Fi.
Your 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 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

Safety, Regulatory & Legal
network transmit location-based information. Devices enabled with location 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 Calls

When 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; and
• Remain on the phone for as long as the emergency responder instructs you.
Navigation
The following information is applicable to Motorola mobile devices that provide navigation
Navigation
features.
When 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.
Privacy & Data Security
Motorola understands that privacy and data security are important to everyone. Because some
Privacy & Data Security
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. Use your device's security and lock features, where
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.
