1. Getting Started
Please read the safety instructions in the "Precautions"
section before use.
Before you start using your phone, you must insert a
valid SIM card supplied by your GSM operator or
retailer. The SIM card contains your subscription
information, your mobile telephone number, and a
small quantity of memory in which you can store
phone numbers and messages (for more information,
see “Contacts” on page 57).
You can also insert a memory card. This provides you
with expanded memory capability, which allows you
to store additional music, photo, and video files
separate from the phone's built-in memory.
Inserting the SIM card
Remove the back cover
Make sure that the phone is switched off. You need to
remove the back cover of your phone before you can
insert the SIM card. Hold the phone with the front
facing downwards as shown in the diagram and push
the release catch located on the left side of the phone.
Place your finger in the small hole above the release
catch and lift up the back cover from its slot.
Remove the battery
Put your finger on the black holder located at the top
right hand corner of the battery and lift the battery up
from its slot.
Philips 598_01_GettingStarted.fm Page 7 Wednesday, September 13, 2006 1:51 PM
Getting Started 7
8 Getting Started
You may lose all your personal settings if you remove
the battery when the phone is switched on.
Insert the SIM card
Make sure that the clipped corner of the SIM card is
facing the correct direction (clipped corner at upper
left) and the metallic contacts are facing downwards.
Slide the SIM card into the card slot until it stops.
When you remove your SIM card the first time, make
sure that you smoothen the edges, otherwise you may
have difficulty sliding in the card.
Replace the battery
With the metallic contacts facing downwards, press
the battery down into its slot until it locks into place.
Note that the hinge should be at the bottom of the
battery.
Replace the back cover
Align and hook the back cover to the right side of the
phone and press down the back cover until it locks
into place with the left side of the phone.
Philips 598_01_GettingStarted.fm Page 8 Wednesday, September 13, 2006 1:51 PM
Getting Started 9
When inserting the battery, be careful not to damage
the metallic connectors of the SIM card slot.
Switching on the phone
To switch on the phone, long press the ) key. Enter
the PIN code if required (the 4 to 8 digit secret code
of your SIM card). It is preconfigured and provided to
you by your network operator or retailer. For more
information on PIN code, see “Security” on page 71.
If you enter an incorrect PIN code 3 times in succession,
your SIM card will be blocked. To unblock it, you must
obtain the PUK code from your network operator.
Charging the battery
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery. The
new battery is partially charged. A sound alert will be
emitted to warn you when the battery level becomes low.
We recommend that you do not
remove
the battery
when the phone is switched on as you may lose all your
personal settings as a result. If you do remove it, the
date and time settings are only memorized for a short
while. As such, you need to reset the information after
you have installed the battery back again.
Once the battery and battery cover are installed, you
can charge the phone. Plug in the connector as shown
below. Then plug the other end into an AC power
socket.
The battery symbol indicates the state of charge.
During charging, the charge indicators will scroll; it
takes around 2.5 hours to fully charge the battery.
When all the scroll bars are steady, the battery is fully
charged. You can then disconnect the charger.
Depending on the network and condition of use, talk
time and stand-by time can go up to 10 hours* and
1000 hours* respectively.
*Depending on the network conditions, user settings,
method of use, etc the actual results may differ.
Philips 598_01_GettingStarted.fm Page 9 Wednesday, September 13, 2006 1:51 PM
10 Getting Started
Keeping the charger plugged to the mobile phone when
the battery is fully charged will not damage the
battery. The only way to turn off the charger is to
unplug it, so it is advisable to use an easily accessible
AC power socket.
If you do not intend to use your phone for several days,
we recommend that you remove the battery.
You can use the phone while it is charging (note that
the vibra alert goes off when the charger is connected).
If the battery is completely flat, the battery icon will
only reappear after a few minutes of charging.
Setting hotkeys

your favorite features. Once they have been set, you
