INTRODUCTION
T
hank you for purchasing the M900 (GSM, DCS, PCS) mobile telephone. The mobile tele-
phone described in this guide is approved for use on all GSM 900, DCS 1800 and PCS
1900 networks. Some of the messages displayed on your phone may be different according
to your subscription type and/or service provider.
As with all types of radio transceivers, this mobile telephone emits electromagnetic waves
and complies with international regulations when it is used under normal conditions and in
accordance with the safety and warning messages given below.
SAR
THIS M900 PHONE MEETS THE EU REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO
WAVES.
Before a mobile phone is available for sale to the public, compliance with the European R&TTE
directive
(1999/5/EC
protection of the health and the safety of the user and any other person.
Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to
exceed the limits for exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy recommended by The Council of
the European Union1. These limits are part of the comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted
levels of RF energy for the general public. The guidelines were developed by independent scientific organisations through periodic, thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The limits include
a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and
health.
The exposure standard for mobile phones (CENELEC standard EN 50360: 2001) employs a unit
of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit2 recommended
by The Council of the European Union is 2.0 W/kg. Tests for SAR have been conducted using
standard operating positions (with reference to CENELEC standard EN 50361: 2001) with the
phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands3. Although
the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the phone
while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the phone 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 antenna, the lower the power output.
The highest SAR value for this M900 model when tested for compliance against the standard
was 0.754W/kg. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones
and at various positions, they all meet the EU requirements for RF exposure.
Additional information from the World Health Organization (WHO)
Individuals: Present scientific information does not indicate the need for any special precautions for use of mobile phones. If individuals are concerned, they might choose to limit their own
or their children’s’ RF exposure by limiting the length of calls, or using "hands-free" devices to
keep mobile phones away from the head and body.
RF absorbing devices: Scientific evidence does not indicate any need for RF-absorbing
covers or other "absorbing devices" on mobile phones. They cannot be justified on health
grounds and the effectiveness of many such devices in reducing RF exposure is unproven.

There are a number of independent sources of information available to users including:
Royal Society of Canada: www.rsc.ca
The International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP): www.icnirp.de
) must be shown. This directive includes as one essential requirement the
1. European recommendation 1999/519/EC
2. The SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over ten
grams of tissue. The limit incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection
for the public and to account for any variations in measurements.
3. The maximum level of GSM emitted power is 250mW at 900 MHz and 125 mW at 1800MHz
according to the GSM standard.

General safety
Due to the possibility of radio frequency interference, it is important to follow special regulations regarding the use of radio equipment.
Please follow the safety advice given below.
Switch off your phone and remove the battery when in an aircraft. The use of mobile
telephones in an aircraft may endanger the operation of the aircraft, disrupt the mobile
phone network and is illegal.
Switch off your phone when at any refuelling point or near flammable materials.
Switch off your phone in hospitals and any other places where medical equipment may
be in use.
Respect restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots, chemical plants or
where blasting operations are in progress.
There may be a hazard associated with the operation of phones close to inadequately
protected personal medical devices such as hearing aids and pacemakers. Consult
your doctor or the manufacturers of the medical device in question to determine
whether it is adequately protected.
Operation of your phone close to other electronic equipment may also cause
interference if the equipment is inadequately protected. Observe any warning signs
and manufacturers recommendations.
Vehicle safety
Respect national regulations on the use of mobile telephones in vehicles.
Road safety always comes first! Always give your full attention to driving.
- Do not use a hand-held phone while driving. If you do not have a 'hands free' car kit, stop
and park your vehicle safely before using your phone. Please ensure that you are fully aware
of the laws in your country regarding the use of hand-held mobile devices whilst driving.
- If incorrectly installed in a vehicle, mobile telephones can interfere with the proper operation
of the vehicle electronics, such as ABS anti-lock brakes or air bags. To avoid such problems
ensure that only qualified personnel carry out the installation.
- Do not place the phone on the passenger seat or where it could fall during sudden braking
or a collision. Always use the holder.
6-
Emergency calls
You can make emergency calls by dialling the European standard emergency number 112 or
the USA emergency number 911 even if there is no SIM card in your phone. Emergency calls
can even be made if the phone is PIN or electronically locked or call barred. In some countries
local emergency numbers can still be used for emergency purposes but the phone may have
to contain a valid SIM card.
When making an emergency call remember to give all the necessary information as accurately
as possible. As the phone may be the only means of communication at the scene of an emergency, do not cut off the call until you are told to do so.
Mobile phones rely on wireless and landline networks which cannot be guaranteed in all conditions. You
should therefore never rely solely on wireless phones for essential emergency communications.
Care and maintenance
This mobile telephone is a product of advanced engineering, design and craftsmanship and
should be treated with care. Adhere to instructions below will help you to enjoy this product
for many years.
- Do not expose your phone to any extreme environment with high humidity or temperature.

up to its normal temperature after switch on, moisture may form inside and damage the electrical
parts.
- Do not attempt to disassemble the phone. There are no user serviceable parts inside.
- Do not expose your phone to water, rain or spilt beverages. It is not waterproof.
- Do not drop, knock or violently shake your phone. Rough handling may damage it.
- Do not clean your phone with strong chemicals or solvents. Wipe it only with a soft, slightly
dampened cloth.
- Do not place the telephone alongside computer discs, credit or travel cards or other magnetic
media. The information contained on discs or cards may be affected by the phone.
- Do not connect incompatible products. The use of third party equipment or accessories, not
made or authorised by Mitsubishi Electric, invalidates the warranty of your phone and may
be a safety risk.
- Do not remove the labels. The serial numbers on it are important for aftersales service and
other related purposes.
- Contact an authorised service centre if help is needed.
AC/DC adaptor charger
This mobile phone was designed to be used only with the supplied AC/DC charger. Use of any
other charger or adaptor invalidates any approval given to this apparatus and may be dangerous.
Battery use
Batteries may be charged hundreds of times and will gradually wear out. When the operating time
(stand-by and talk time) is noticeably shorter than normal, it is time to replace the battery.
If the battery is totally empty the battery level symbol may not be displayed at once when connecting the battery charger, moreover the phone cannot be turned on. Up to 15 minutes may be
necessary to reach the required 4% battery charge to turn your phone on and allow the battery
charge symbol to be displayed. Battery charging may only operate between 0°C and + 45°C.
- Do not leave batteries connected to a charger longer than necessary. Overcharging shortens
