General care
A phone contains delicate electronic circuitry, magnets and battery systems. You should treat it with care and pay attention to
the following:
• This phone is fitted with an internal battery that can only be replaced by a qualified service engineer. There is a risk of
explosion if the battery is replaced with an incorrect battery type. Dispose of the used battery in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
• Do not allow the phone, battery or accessories to come into contact with liquids or moisture at any time. Do not immerse
in liquid.
• Do not paint the phone.
• Do not drop, throw or subject the phone to rough treatment.
• Do not place the phone alongside computer disks, credit cards, travel cards and other magnetic media. The information
contained on disks or cards may be affected by the phone.
• Do not leave the phone or the battery in places where the temperature could exceed 60 °C, e.g. on a car dashboard or
a window sill, behind glass in direct sunlight, etc.
• Do not remove the battery while the phone is switched on.
• Take care not to allow metal objects, such as coins or key rings to contact or short-circuit the battery terminals.
PL-1 Important Safety Information
• Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. Dispose of Li-ION batteries at a Li-ION recycling point. For more specific battery and
power supply information, see pages 7 and 8.
• Do not put the battery in your mouth, as battery electrolytes may be toxic if swallowed.
• Do not attempt to dismantle the phone or any of its accessories.

• Do not let the battery come into direct contact with an electric outlet or cigarette lighter charger. Use only authorised
charger units.
• Do not pierce the battery with a sharp object such as a needle.
• When the battery is thrown away, be sure it is non-conducting by applying vinyl tape to the (+) and (-) terminals.
• Do not disassemble or modify the battery.
• Do not solder the battery directly.
• Stop using the battery if you detect any abnormalities, such as odour, discolouration or heat during use, charge or
storage.
• Do not use the phone with a damaged or misshapen battery.
• In the unlikely event of a battery leak, take care to keep the battery discharge away from your eyes or skin. If the leakage
does come into contact with the eyes or skin, please flush thoroughly in clean water and consult a doctor.
• Remove a worn out battery immediately.
• The earpiece may become warm during normal use. Also, the phone itself may become warm while the battery is being
charged.
• When a phone is set to Vibration mode, the vibration can sometimes cause your phone to move. Be careful not to place
the phone near heat sources (such as a heater) or too close to the edge of the table.
• Use an anti-static cloth to clean the phone. Do not use an ordinary dry cloth or electrostatically charged cloth. Do not use
chemical or abrasive cleaners as these could damage the case.
• Remember to recycle the cardboard packaging supplied with this phone.
• Remember to make backup copies of all important data on your phone.
• Do not leave the battery pack empty or disconnected for a long time, otherwise some data may be initialised.
• Take care not to put your phone in your back pocket and then sit on it. Also, do not put your phone at the bottom of a bag
where it may subject to excessive weight or pressure. Doing so may damage the LCD and camera lens and cause them
to malfunction.
• Hold the phone away from your ear when you
- Play video/music on the Multimedia Player
- Play the ringtune through the speaker.
It may damage, or irritate your ears.
Important Safety Information PL-2
Safety
The use of mobile phones is not allowed in some radiation-sensitive areas, such as hospitals, research centres and aircraft.
Ensure that you switch off your phone in these areas. If in doubt, remove the battery.
Aircraft safety
• Switch off your phone and remove its battery when inside or near an aircraft. The use of phones in aircraft is illegal. It
may be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft and it may disrupt the mobile network. Failure to observe this
instruction may lead to suspension or denial of mobile network services to the offender or legal action or both.
• Do not use the phone on the ground without the permission of the ground staff.
Hospital safety
• Switch off your phone and remove its battery in areas where the use of phones is prohibited. Follow the instructions
given by the respective medical centre regarding the use of mobile phones on their premises.
General safety
• Observe "Turn off mobile" signs, such as those near petrol stations, chemicals or explosives and switch off your phone.
• If you have a heart condition, be careful with the call vibration or tone volume settings.
• Do not allow children to play with the phone, charger or batteries.
• Do not use the phone where blasting is in progress.
• The operation of some medical electronic devices, such as hearing aids and pacemakers, may be affected if you use a
mobile phone next to them. Observe any warning signs and the manufacturer’s recommendations.
• Your phone contains metal which may cause a skin irritation, a rash or eczema.
Road safety
• You MUST exercise proper control of your vehicle at all times. Give your full attention to driving.
• Observe all local safety regulations regarding the use of mobile phones while driving.
• Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call.
• You MUST NOT stop on the hard shoulder of a motorway to answer or make a call, except in an emergency.
• Switch off your phone at a refuelling point, such as a petrol station, even if you are not refuelling your own car.
• Do not store or carry flammable or explosive materials in the same compartment as a radio transmitter.
• Electronic vehicle systems, such as anti-lock brakes, speed control and fuel injection systems are not normally affected
by radio transmissions. The manufacturer of such equipment can advise if it is adequately shielded from radio
transmissions. If you suspect vehicle problems caused by radio transmissions, consult your dealer and do not switch on
the phone until it has been checked by qualified approved installers.
PL-3 Important Safety Information
• Check if local laws and/or regulations restrict the use of phones while driving.
Vehicles equipped with an airbag
An airbag inflates with great force. Do not place objects, including either installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area
over the airbag or in the airbag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed and the airbag
inflates, serious injury could result.
Third party equipment
The use of third party equipment, cables or accessories, not made or authorised by NEC, may invalidate the warranty of your
phone and also adversely affect the phone’s operation.
Service
The phone, batteries and charger contain no user-serviceable parts. We recommend that your NEC phone is serviced or
repaired by an NEC authorised service centre. Please contact 3 or NEC for advice.
Efficient use
The phone has an internal antenna. For optimum performance with minimum power consumption, please do not cover the
internal antenna area with your hand. Covering the internal antenna affects call quality, may cause the phone to operate at
higher power levels than needed and may shorten talk and standby times.
Radio frequency energy
Your phone is a low-power radio transmitter/receiver. When it is turned on, it intermittently receives and transmits radio
frequency (RF) energy (radio waves). The system that handles the call controls the power level at which the phone transmits.
Exposure to radio frequency energy
The phone is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to RF energy set by national authorities and international health
agencies.* These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of radio wave exposure for the
general population. The guidelines were developed by independent scientific organisations such as ICNIRP (International
Commission on Non-ionizing Radiation Protection) through periodic and 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 and to account
for any variations in measurements.
*Examples of radio frequency exposure guidelines and standards that the phone is designed to conform to:
• ICNIRP, Guidelines for limiting exposure to time-varying electric, magnetic and electromagnetic fields (up to 300 GHz)-
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP). Health Physics, vol.74. pp, 494-522, April
1998.

Introducing your e228
Your e228 combines a wide range of features in a technologically advanced phone, capable of operating in UMTS (Universal
Mobile Telecommunication System), also known as 3G, GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) or 2G and GPRS
(General Packet Radio Service) or 2.5G.
3G allows much greater data speeds than 2G/2.5G networks and enables you to make video calls, send multimedia
messages, view photos and videos and much more.

Setting up your e228
This section explains how to prepare your phone for use.
Before you use your phone you must do the following:
• Insert a valid USIM (Universal Subscriber Identity Module) card
• Charge the battery
• Insert the memory card (Memory Stick Duo™) in the side slot (optional)
• Set the date and time
This section shows you what to do step by step.
USIM Card
3 provides you with a USIM card that must be inserted into your phone.
The USIM card holder is located underneath the battery. If the USIM card is removed, then the phone becomes unusable
until a valid USIM is inserted.
Always disconnect the charger and other accessories from your phone before inserting and removing your USIM card.
To Insert/Remove the USIM Card
Ensure that the power is off. If the power is on, press and hold the End (On-Off) key until power is off.
Insert/remove the USIM card as shown in the diagram on the next page.

Battery
To Insert the Battery
1 Ensure that your phone is switched off before you insert the battery.
2 Open the battery cover. (see the diagram on page 6).
3 Place the bottom of the battery into position and then push down on the upper section of the battery until it clicks into
place.
4 Close the battery cover.
You can charge the battery whenever you wish without affecting the performance of the phone.
Your e228 automatically switches off if the battery voltage is too low.
Batteries have a life cycle. If you find that the amount of times you have to charge the battery is increasing dramatically,
the battery life may be coming to an end. Replace the battery with a new one of the same type.
When the battery is not being used for a long period, remove it from your e228 and store in a place with low humidity
and low temperature.
A battery that has not been used for a long period of time needs to be completely discharged and then recharged two or
three times before reaching full capacity.
Charging
To Charge the Battery Using the Charger
1 Insert the battery into the phone (see To Insert the Battery on page 7).
2 Connect the charger plug to your e228 I/O connector (see the diagram on the next page).
3 Plug the charger into a mains socket. The LED indicator on your e228 lights up while charging is in progress and goes
off when charging is completed.
4 After charging is completed, unplug the charger from the I/O connector.
-7- Setting up your e228
Connecting the battery charger to the phone
Even if the phone remains connected to the charger, the battery’s residual capacity may decrease when the phone is
used.
The battery must be charged at room temperature. Ensure that your phone is switched off. If the phone temperature is
high, wait until it returns to a normal temperature.
The recommended battery charge time is approximately two hours.
Stop charging the battery if charging is not completed within five hours. Remove the charger from the phone and
connect it again to restart the charging.
The LED indicator may take a few minutes to light up after the phone starts charging an empty battery.
Low Battery Alarm
The battery power has 4 levels and is indicated by the following icons:
Empty Battery Low Battery Medium Battery
Setting up your e228 -8-
Full Battery
When the battery runs out, the following image blinks and a warning alarm may be heard. The phone switches off shortly
afterwards.
Low battery alarm
During a call, the image and a discontinuing alarm sound indicate low-power. After approximately 60 seconds the call is
disconnected.
The volume level of the low-power warning alarm depends on the ringtune volume level on standby and the earpiece volume
during a call.
