! Safety Instructions
General
The satellite mobile phone is used for transmitting voice, data and fax via the GSM-900
and the Thuraya satellite network and to utilize the GPS facilities.
Handle your mobile phone with care and
keep it dry.
Avoid exposing your mobile phone to
extreme hot or cold temperatures.
Avoid placing your mobile phone close to
cigarettes, open flames or any source of
heat.
Only use a soft damp cloth to clean your
mobile phone.
To avoid impaired performance, please
ensure your mobile phone’s antenna is not
bent or damaged.
In a car
It is not recommended to use your mobile
phone while driving a vehicle due to traffic
safety reasons. When using a mobile phone,
park the vehicle before telephoning. Do not
place objects, including either permanently
installed or portable mobile phone, in the
area above the airbag or in the airbag deployment area. If an in-vehicle mobile phone
is improperly installed and the airbag inflates,
it could result in serious injury.
Do not transport or store flammable gas,
liquid or explosives in the passenger compartment of a vehicle which contains your
mobile phone and accessories.
M In the vicinity of blasting work and
in explosive environments
Never use the mobile phone where blasting
work is in progress. Observe all restrictions
and follow any regulations or rules.
Areas with a potentially explosive environment are often, but not always, clearly
marked. Do not use the mobile phone while
at a filling station. Do not use near fuel or
chemicals.
Q In aircraft
Turn off your mobile phone before boarding
any aircraft. Do not use it on the ground
without crew permission.
In hospitals
%
Follow any regulations or rules. Turn off your
mobile phone when near medical equipment.
º Electronic devices
Certain electronic equipment may not be
shielded against the RF signals emitted by
your mobile phone.
J Qualified service
Do not attempt to disassemble your mobile
phone. A broken warranty seal will void the
warranty. The mobile phone does not contain consumer serviceable components. Only
qualified service personnel may install or repair equipment.
a
Batteries and accessories
Use approved batteries and accessories only.
Use of non-approved accessories may result
in loss of performance, damage to the mobile phone, fire, electric shock or injury.
Connecting devices
p
p
pp
Never connect incompatible products. When
connecting the mobile phone to any other
device, read its user’s guide for detailed safety instructions.
k
Antenna and SAT reception
H
Do not remove the antenna yourself. If your
mobile phone’s antenna becomes damaged,
please take it to a certified service partner.
Only use an antenna that has been specifically designed for your mobile phone.
Unauthorised antennas, modifications or
attachments could damage the mobile
phone and may violate the relevant regulations, causing loss of performance and radio
frequency (RF) energy above the recommended limits.
Do not hold the antenna when the mobile
phone is in use. Holding the antenna affects
call quality, may cause the mobile phone to
operate at a higher power level than needed
and shortens talk and standby times.
Hold the mobile phone
– in GSM mode as you would any other
telephone. While speaking directly into
the microphone, angle the antenna in a
direction up and over your shoulder.
– in SAT mode: Extend the antenna and
point it in the assumed direction of the
satellite. Making and receiving a call is
only possible outside houses or cars and
with no obstructions between the mobile
phone and satellite.
p Emergency calls
To make or receive calls, the mobile phone
must be turned on and in a service area with
adequate radio signal strength. Emergency
calls may not be possible on all mobile phone
networks or when certain network services
and/or mobile phone features are in use.
Check with your local service provider.
} With pacemakers and hearing aids
Pacemakers
H
The various brands and models of cardiac
pacemakers available exhibit a wide range of
immunity levels to radio signals. Therefore,
people who wear a cardiac pacemaker and
who want to use a mobile phone should seek
the advice of their cardiologist. If, as a pacemaker user, you are still concerned about interaction with mobile phones, we suggest
you
– maintain a distance of 15 cm (6 inches)
between the mobile phone and your
pacemaker
– do not hold your mobile phone to your
chest, e.g., do not carry the mobile
phone in a breast pocket
– when using the mobile phone, place it to
your ear opposite the pacemaker
– refer to your pacemaker product litera-
ture for information on your particular
device.
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn off your mobile
phone immediately!
O Hearing aids
Most new models of hearing aids are
immune to radio frequency interference
from mobile phones that are more than
2 metres away. Some are also immune to
interference when the mobile phone is
brought up to the same hearing-aided ear.
Many types of older hearing aids may be
susceptible to interference, making it very
difficult to use a mobile phone. Should interference be experienced, there are things that
can be done which may improve the situation:
– if possible use the mobile phone with
your non-aided ear
– use a hands-free accessory.

! Getting started
: Introduction
Your HUGHES-7101 is a new generation mobile phone combining satellite (SAT), GSM900 (Global System for Mobile communication at 900 MHz) and GPS (Global Position-
ing System) technologies. This provides you
with the advantages of three technologies in
one single mobile phone. Its operation in satellite mode is virtually identical to that of
GSM mode. Operations that you may be familiar with using a typical GSM mobile
phones will work in a very similar manner
when you are using the Thuraya satellite service. There are, however, a few specific
differences between GSM and Satellite operation. The purpose of this section is to make
you aware of these differences.
When the mobile phone is idle on the satellite system and has good signal strength,
calls can be received without the need of
extending the antenna. However, when a
satellite call is answered or initiated the
antenna must be pulled out entirely.
Watch the signal strength indicator on the
display and move the mobile phone for best
connection quality. Satellite calls require the
mobile phone to have a clear open surroundings with no obstruction. The presence of
obstacles such as buildings, trees or mountains between the mobile phone and the satellite will generally prevent communication.
To maintain good call quality, it is also important that the mobile phone's antenna be
pointed roughly in the direction of the
satellite:
High Power Alerting
The Thuraya system features a ’High Power
Alerting’ capability that allows you to be notified of incoming calls even when your mobile phone has poor signal coverage. When
the mobile phone receives a High Power
Alerting signal it will alert you with an ’early
ring’ and a special display message (see page
9). To answer the call, you must immediately
extend the antenna and move the mobile
phone into a position that has a clear ’line of
sight’ to the satellite. When this has occurred
the mobile phone display will change,
prompting you to answer the call and proceed with conversation. If the call is not answered promptly after the High Power Alerting signal is received, the calling party will be
diverted to voice mail and/or an announcement stating that you are not available to answer.
Just like GSM, the satellite coverage area is
divided into many different service regions.
The mobile phone searches the network
automatically (see page 42) and determines
which service region is active by registering
its presence with the Thuraya system. If the
mobile phone has not been able to update
this registration due to a weak signal, the
registration information will become out of
date or ’stale’. This is indicated on the display
by a blinking SAT icon in the left of the signal
strength indicator. This condition will clear
automatically once signal conditions improve
and a call is made or a period of time elapses.
You also have the option to speed up that
procedure by manually having the mobile
phone register with the Thuraya system.
This is accomplished with the function
Registration
page 43). Make sure you have good SAT signal strength before starting this operation.

! Phone number lists
There are four different lists which are stored in your mobile phone and which you can use to
call phone numbers:
– the phonebook
– the list of dialled numbers,
– the list of received calls
– the list of missed calls
: Phonebook
Phone/Call settingsNetworkSound & AlertStatistics/InfoGPS facilitiesWAP Internet
The phonebook you can create on your SIM
card is a convenient aid to allow you to call
people by names instead of numbers.
Only the phonebook entries of the SIM card
presently inserted are available.
The number of phonebook entries you can
store and the maximum number of characters and digits for each entry depend on the
service provider’s SIM card.
Once numbers and names have been stored
in the phonebook, the mobile phone is able
to identify the names of callers (or SMS senders) by means of the phone numbers transmitted. So instead of numbers, the corresponding names are shown in the display
when you are called from a phone number
which is assigned to a phonebook name.
Moreover, the names from the phonebook
entries are found and displayed in the following lists:
– list of dialled numbers
– list of missed calls
– list of received calls.
The phonebook can also be used in all call
functions where it is possible to call another
number.
You can set up another ’phonebook’ for
’fixed dialling’, so that only certain numbers
can be called (see page 34).
Input sources for phonebook entries
There are different ways to make a new
phonebook entry:
1. First enter a number to be dialled and
then store the number in the phonebook
by pressing
2. Open the phonebook first and make a
new entry.
3. Store a number from the list of dialled
numbers in the phonebook (see page 15).
And, provided that the number was transmitted:
4. The number of an SMS sender while you
are reading the SMS (see page 26).
5. A number from the list of missed calls
(see page 16).
6. A number from the list of received calls
(see page 16).
Phonebook entries from the service
provider
Some service providers store service numbers
in the phonebook (e.g. hotline numbers);
these entries may possibly not be replaced or
deleted.

Assign a short dialling number
After you have saved a phone number and
name in the phonebook, the mobile phone
assigns the entry to a short dialling number
from 2 up to a maximum of 255, depending
on the SIM card. Short dialling number 1 is
automatically assigned to the voice mailbox
number (see page 20). The maximum number of phonebook entries is determined by
your SIM card.

the entry to a special ’caller group’ to which
you can also assign a special ringing tone
(see page 45).
