FCC RF Exposure Information
In August 1996 the Federal Communication (FCC) of the United States
with its action in Report and Order FCC 96-326 adopted an updated
safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency (RF)
electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated transmitters. Those
guidelines are consistent with the safety standard previous set by both
U.S. and international standards bodies. The design of this phone
complies with the FCC guidelines and these international standards.
Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas,
modifications, or attachments could impair call quality, damage the
phone, or result in violation of FCC regulations.
Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna
comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Please
contact your local dealer for replacement antenna.
Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations. To comply with
FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of 0.6
inches (1.5 cm) must be maintained between the user's body and the
phone, including the antenna. Third-party belt-clips, holsters, and
similar accessories used by this device should not contain any metallic
components. Body-worn accessories that do not meet these
requirements may not comply with FCC RF exposure requirements and
should be avoided.
For more information about RF exposure, please visit the FCC website
at www.fcc.gov.

Safety And Performances
Emergency services
To make an emergency call in any country
• Press 112 and
Ask the operator for the service which you require: Police, Ambulance, Fire Brigade, Coastguard
or Mountain Rescue Services. Give your location and, if possible, remain stationary to maintain
phone contact.
The 112 emergency number service is available on every digital network service. The number
999 is an alternative emergency number for UK only, and can only be used with a valid SIM
card.
• Due to the nature of the cellular system, the success of emergency calls cannot be
guaranteed.
General care
A cellphone contains delicate electronic circuitry, magnets, and battery systems. You should
treat it with care and give particular attention to the following points.
• Do not allow the phone or its accessories to come into contact with liquid or moisture at any
time.
• Do not place anything in the folded phone.
• Do not expose your phone to extreme high or low temperatures.
• Do not expose your phone to naked flame , cigars or cigarettes.
• Do not paint your phone.
• Do not drop or subject your 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
degrees celsius; e.g. on a car dashboard or on a window sill, behind glass in direct sunlight,
etc.
• Do not remove the phone’s 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.
• Do not dispose battery packs in a fire. Your phone's Li-ion batteries may be safely disposed at
Li-ion recycling points. For more specific battery and power supply information.
• Do not put your phone's battery in your mouth as battery electrolytes may be toxic if
swallowed.
• Do not attempt to dismantle the phone or any of its accessories.
• This equipment 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 by an incorrect type.
Disposal of used battery must be in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
• Using any battery pack, AC adapter or Vehicle power adapter (option) not specified by the
manufacturer for use with this phone creates a potential safety hazard.
• The earpiece may become warm during normal use and the unit itself may become warm
during charging.
• Us e a damp or anti-static cloth to clean the phone. Do NOT use a dry cloth or electrostatic ally
charged cloth. Do not use chemical or abrasive cleaners as these could damage the casing.
• Recycling: the cardboard packaging supplied with this phone is ideal for recycling.
• Do not leave the battery pack empty or disconnected for a long time, otherwise certain data
may be initialized.
• Your phone contains metal which may cause itching, rashes or eczema depending on your
constitution or physical cond ition.
• Take care not to put your phone in the back pocket of your trousers or skirt and then sit on it.
Also, do not put your phone at the bottom of a bag which may be subjected to excessive
weight or pressure. Doing so may damage the LCD and camera lens and cause them to
malfunction.
Aircraft safety
• Switch off your cellphone and remove its battery when inside or near the aircraft. The use of
cellphones in the aircraft is illegal. It may be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft and
may disrupt the cellular network.
Failure to observe this instruction may lead to suspens ion or denial of cellphone service to the
offender, or legal action, or both.
• Do not use your phone on the ground without the permission of the ground crew.
Hospital safety
• Switch off your phone in areas where the use of cellphones is prohibited. Follow the
instructions given by the respective medical facility regarding the use of cellphones on their
premises.
General safety
• Observe ‘Turn off 2-way radio’ signs, such as those near stores of fuel, chemicals or
explosives.
• Do not allow children to play with the phone, charger or batteries.
• Small parts are included in your phone. Keep them out of reach of small children, for whom it
could cause a choking hazard.
• The operation of some medical electronic devices, such as hearing aids and pacemakers,
may be affected if a cellphone is used next to them. Observe any warning signs and
manufacturer's recommenda tions.
• If you have a weak heart, you should take extra precautions when setting functions such as
the Vibrator and Ring tone volume functions for incoming calls.
• If you set the Vibrator setting to anything other than OFF, be careful that the phone is not near
a source of heat (e.g. a heater) and that it does not fall from a desk due to the vibration.
Road safety
• You MUST exercise proper control of your vehicle at all times. Give full attention to driving.
• Observe all the recommendations contained in your local traffic safety documentation.
• P ull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require.
• You MUST NOT stop on the hard shoulder of a motorway to answer or make a call, except in
8
an emergency.
• Switch off your cellphone at the 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 where a
radio transmitter is placed, such as a cellphone.
• 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 your phone until it
has been checked by qualified and approved installers.
Vehicles equipped with an air bag
An air bag inflates with great force. Do not place objects, including either installed or portable
wireless equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. Improper
installation of wireless equipment in vehicle could result in serious injury when the air bag
inflates.
Third party equipment
The use of third party equipmen t, cables or accessories, not manufactured or authorised by
NEC, may invalidate the warranty of your cellphone and also adversely affect the phone's
operation. For example use only the NEC mains cable supplied with the AC charger.
Service
The cellphone, batteries and charger contain no user-serviceable parts. We recommend that
your NEC cellphone be serviced or repaired by an NEC authorised service center. Please
contact your Service Provider or NEC for advice.
Non-ionizing radiations
The radio equipment shall be connected to the antenna via a non-radiating cable (e.g. coax).
The antenna shall be mounted in a position such that no part of the human body will normally
come into contact with any part of the antenna unless there is an inte rvening metallic screen, for
example, the metallic roof.
Use only an antenna that has been specifically designed for your phone. Use of unauthorized
antennas, modifications or attachments could damage the mobile phone and may violate the
appropriate regulations, causing loss of performance and radio frequency (RF) energy above
the recommended limits.
Efficient use
For optimum performance with minimum power consumption, please note the following:
• Your phone has the internal antenna. Do not cover part of the internal antenna of the phone
with your hands. This affects call quality, may cause the mobile phone to operate at a higher
power level than needed and may shorten talk and standby times.
Radio frequency energy
Your phone is a low-power radio transmitter and 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
Your mobile 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 organizations such as ICNIRP
(International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Prot ection) through periodic and through
evaluation of scientific s tudies. The limits include a substantial safety margin designed to assure
the safety of all persons, r egardless of age and health, and to account for any variations in
measurements.
* Examples of radio frequency exposure guidelines and standards that your phone is designed
to conform to:
• ICNIRP, “Guidelines for limiting exposure to time-varying electric, magnetic, and
electromagnetic fields (up to 300 G Hz)-International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection (ICNIRP)”, Health Physics, vol. 74. pp, 494-522, April 1998.
• 99/519/EC, Council Recommendation on the limitation of exposure to the general public to
electromagnetic fields 0 Hz-300 GHz, Official Journal of the European Communities, July 12,
1999.
• ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992. “Safety levels with respect to human exposure to radio frequency
electromagnetic fields, 3kHz to 300 GHz”. The Institute of El ectrical and Electronics
Engineers Inc., New York, 1991.
• FCC Report and Order, ET Docket 93-62, FCC 96-326, Federal Communications

Getting Started
Your phone is equipped with a battery and a charger. Other optional accessories can customize your phone for
maximum performance and mobility. All the features described in this user guide are supported by your phone.
For all the features to work, you must have a valid SIM card (included in the package supplied by your service
provider) that also supports these features.
Even if you have a fully featured SIM card, any feature not supported by the network transmitting your call will not
work. This last point is especially important when you are roaming among networks.
Before you attempt to use your phone, check that you have:
•
A valid SIM card inserted in the phone
• Fully charged battery
Service activation
Before you can use your new NEC phone, the service must be activated by your service provider. Please contact
your local service provider regarding phone activation.
Voice mail messaging and text messaging
Voice mail messaging and text messaging services, when available, are provided by your service provider. Before
you can receive voice or text messages with your phone, you must subscribe to these service options. Contact
your service provider for information on the availability and setup of these services.
Phone password
When your service is activated, a 4-digit PIN is programmed into the SIM. The PIN locks and unlocks your phone,
and provides access to restricted phone settings. Check with your service provider for additional information on
your security PIN.

(Subscriber Identity Module). The SIM card contains a computer chip that keeps track of your phone number, the
services included in your subscription, and your SIM phonebook information. It is stored in a recess in the battery
compartment.
The phone is unusable (except for emergency calls) until a valid SIM card is inserted. It is possible to transfer your
SIM card to another compatible phone and access your network services. Your phone will display a warning
message if the SIM card is not inserted properly.
