Battery

• Your phone is powered by a rechargeable
battery.

• Note that a new battery's full performance is
achieved only after two or three complete charge
and discharge cycles! The battery can be charged
and discharged hundreds of times but it will
eventually wear out.

• When the operating time (talk-time and
standby time) is noticeably shorter than normal, it is
time to buy a new battery. Use only batteries
approved by the phone manufacturer and recharge
your battery only with the chargers approved by the
manufacturer.

• Unplug the charger when not in use. Do not
leave the battery connected to a charger for longer

than 10 days, since overcharging may shorten its
lifetime. If left unused a fully charged battery will
discharge itself over time.

• Temperature extremes can affect the ability of
your battery to charge.

• Use the battery only for its intended purpose.

• Never use any charger or battery which is

damaged.

• Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental
short-circuiting can occur when a metallic object
(coin, clip or pen) causes direct connection of the +
and - terminals of the battery (metal strips on the
battery) for example when you carry a spare battery
in your pocket or purse. Short-circuiting the
terminals may damage the battery or the connecting
object.

• Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such
as in a closed car in summer or winter conditions,
will reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery.
Always try to keep the battery between 15°C and
25°C. A phone with a hot or cold battery may
temporarily not work, even when the battery is fully
charged. Batteries performance is particularly
limited in temperatures well below freezing.

• Do not dispose of batteries in a fire!

• Dispose of batteries according to local

regulations (e.g. recycling).

• Do not dispose as household waste.

• Do not charge your mobile phone if the

battery is not installed.

Phone

Your phone is a product of superior design and
craftsmanship and should be treated with care.
The suggestions below will help you to fulfil any
warranty obligations and to enjoy this product for
many years.

• Keep the phone and all its parts and
accessories out of the reach of small children.

• Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity
and all types of liquids or moisture can contain
minerals that will corrode electronic circuits.

• Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty
areas. Its moving parts can be damaged.

• Do not store the phone in hot areas. High
temperatures can shorten the life of electronic
devices, damage batteries, and warp or melt certain
plastics.

• Do not store the phone in cold areas. When it
warms up (to its normal temperature), moisture can
form inside, which may damage electronic circuit
boards.

• Do not attempt to open the phone.
Non-expert handling may damage it.

• Do not drop, knock or shake the phone.
Rough handling can break internal circuit boards.

• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning
solvents, or strong detergents to clean the phone.

Do not paint the phone. Paint can clog the moving
parts and prevent proper operation.

• Use only the supplied or an approved
replacement antenna. Unauthorised antennas,
modifications or attachments could damage the

• phone and may violate regulations
governing radio devices.

All of the above suggestions apply equally to your
phone, battery, charger or any accessory. If any of
them is not working properly, take it to your nearest
qualified service facility.

Traffic Safety:
Do not use a hand-held telephone while driving a
vehicle. Always secure the phone in its holder; do
not place the phone on the passenger seat or where
it can break loose in a collision or sudden stop.
Remember road safety always comes first!
Operating environment:
Remember to follow any special regulations in force
in any area and always switch off your phone
whenever it is forbidden to use it, or when it may
cause interference or danger.
Use the phone only in its normal operating positions.
Parts of the phone are magnetic. Metallic materials
may be attracted to the phone, and persons with a
hearing aid should not hold the phone to the ear
with the hearing aid. Always secure the phone in its

holder, because metallic materials may be attracted
by the earpiece.
Do not place credit cards or other magnetic storage
media near the phone, because information stored
on them may be erased.
Electronic devices:
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from
radio frequency (RF) signals. However, certain
electronic equipment may not be shielded against
the RF signals from your wireless phone.
Pacemakers:
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a
minimum separation of 20 cm (6 inches) be
maintained between a handheld wireless phone
and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with
the pacemaker. These recommendations are
consistent with the independent

research by and recommendations of Wireless
Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:

• Should always keep the phone more than 20
cm (6 inches) from their pacemaker when the
phone is switched on.

• Should not carry the phone in a breast
pocket.

• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker
to minimise the potential for interference.

• If you have any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place, switch off your phone
immediately.
Hearing aids:
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with
some hearing aids. In the event of such
interference, you may want to consult your network
operator.
Other medical devices:
Operation of any radio transmitting equipment,
including cellular phones, may interfere with the
functionality of inadequately protected medical
devices. Consult a physician or the manufacturer of
the medical device to determine if they are
adequately shielded from external RF energy or if
you have any questions. Switch off your phone in
health care facilities when any regulations posted in
these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or
health care facilities may be using equipment that
could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Posted facilities:
Switch your phone off in any facility where posted
notices so require.

Potentially explosive atmospheres:
Switch off your phone when in any area with a
potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs
and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause
an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even
death.

Users are advised to switch off the phone when at a
refuelling point (service station). Users are reminded
of the need to observe restrictions on the use of
radio equipment in fuel depots (fuel storage and
distribution areas), chemical plants or where
blasting operations are in progress.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are
often but not always clearly marked. They include
below deck on boats; chemical transfer or storage
facilities; vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas
(such as propane or butane); areas where the air
contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust
or metal powders; and any other area where you
would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle
engine.
Vehicles:
RF signals may affect improperly installed or
inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor
vehicles (e.g. electronic fuel injection systems,
electronic anti-skid (anti-lock) braking systems,
electronic speed control systems, air bag systems).
Check with the manufacturer or its representative
regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the
manufacturer of any equipment that has been
added to your vehicle.

For your safety

Read these simple guidelines. Breaking the rules
may be dangerous or illegal.

Do not switch on the phone when
wireless phone use is prohibited or when
it may cause interference or danger.

Road safety comes first
Do not use a hand-held phone while
driving.

Switch off in aircraft
Wireless devices can cause interference
in aircraft.

Switch off in hospitals
Follow any regulations or rules. Switch
the phone off near medical equipment.

Switch off when refuelling
Do not use the phone at a refuelling
point. Do not use near fuel or chemicals.

Interference
All wireless phones may get interference,
which could affect performance.

Certification information (SAR):

This model phone meets the EU requirements for
exposure to radio waves.

The exposure standard for mobile phones employs
a unit of measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit
recommended by The Council of the European
Union is 2.0 W/kg. Tests for SAR have been
conducted using standard operating positions with
the phone transmitting at its highest certified power
level in all tested frequency bands.
The highest SAR value for this device when tested
at the ear was 0,483 W/kg.
