Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use

Please read these simple guidelines. Not following these guidelines may be dangerous or illegal. Further detailed information is given in this manual.

Certification information

(SAR)

THIS DEVICE MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES

Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and

receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) recommended by international guidelines (ICNIRP). These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The guidelines include a substantial

	The exposure standard for mobile devices
	employs a unit of measurement known as the
	Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR	GuidelinesforSafeandEfficientUse
	limit stated in the international guidelines is
	2.0 W/kg*. Tests for SAR are conducted using
	standard operating positions with the device
	transmitting at its highest certified power level
	in all tested frequency bands. Although the
	SAR is determined at the highest certified
	power level, the actual SAR of the device while
	operating can be well below the maximum
	value. This is because the device is designed to
	operate at multiple power levels so as to use
	only the power required to reach the network.
	In general, the closer you are to a base station,
	the lower the power output of the device.
	Before a phone model is available for sale to
	the public, compliance with the European
	R&TTE directive must be shown. This directive
	includes as one essential requirement the
	protection of the health and the safety for the
	user and any other person. The highest SAR

	it should not contain metal and should
	position the product at least 1.5 cm away from
	your body. In order to transmit data files or
	messages, this device requires a quality
	connection to the network. In some cases,
	transmission of data files or messages may be
	delayed until such a connection is available.
	Ensure the above separation distance
	instructions are followed until the transmission
	is completed. The highest SAR value for this
	device when tested for use at the body is
	0.802 W/kg.
	* The SAR limit for mobile devices used by the
	public is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged
	over ten grams of body tissue. The guidelines
	incorporate a substantial margin of safety to
	give additional protection for the public and to
	account for any variations in measurements.
	SAR values may vary depending on national
	reporting requirements and the network band.

]The card is designed to fit easily into the system one way only.

] Do not bend the card or force it into the slot.

]Do not insert any memory cards other than those made by microSD.

]If the microSD has been formatted using FAT32, format the microSD using FAT16

again.

For more information on the microSD, please refer to the memory card instruction manual.

Memory card formatting

Before you start to use the memory card you have to format it. After you insert the

memory card, select Menu > Settings >

Phone settings > Memory status > Format external memory, then press This operation should only be done when you

insert the memory card for the first time.

During formatting various folders will be created for different data types.

Turning the handset on/off

Turning your handset on

Ensure that your USIM card is in your handset and the battery is charged. Press and hold until the power comes on. Enter the USIM PIN code that was supplied

USIM card if the PIN code request is set to On. (Note: Please refer to page 79)

After a few seconds you will be registered on the network.

Turning your handset off

Press and hold until the power goes off. There may be a few seconds delay while the handset powers down.

Do not turn the handset on again during this time.

Access codes

You can use the access codes described in

this section to avoid unauthorised use of

your phone. The access codes (except the PUK and PUK2 codes) can be changed by using the Change codes feature [Menu #.1.4.3].

PIN code (4 to 8 digits)

The PIN (Personal Identification Number)

code protects your USIM card against unauthorised use. The PIN code is usually supplied with the USIM card. When the PIN code request is set to On, your phone will request the PIN code every time it is switched on. When the PIN code request is set to Off, your phone connects to the network directly without the PIN code.

PIN2 code (4 to 8 digits)

The PIN2 code, supplied with some USIM cards, is required to access functions such as Fixed dial number. These functions are only

available if supported by your USIM card.

PUK code (4 to 8 digits)

The PUK (PIN Unblocking Key) code is required to unblock a blocked PIN code. The PUK code may be supplied with the USIM card. If not, contact your network operator's customer service department for the code. If you lose the code, contact your network operator's customer service department.

PUK2 code (4 to 8 digits)

The PUK2 code, supplied with some USIM cards, is required to unblock a blocked PIN2 code. If you lose the code, contact your network operator's customer service department.

Security code (4 to 8 digits)

The security code prevents unauthorised use of your phone. The default security code is set to '0000' and the security code is required to delete all phone entries and to restore the handset to the factory settings.
