Preparing your mobile for use

To use your mobile, your SIM card needs to be inserted at all times – this contains important information about your mobile and network. The message Insert SIM appears when the SIM card is not installed.

Please take care of your SIM card and don’t keep it near magnetic and electronic devices as this can interfere with data storage and network operations.

• Turn your mobile over and slide the cover off

• Release the battery latch and lift the battery off the mobile

Please note

Don’t remove the battery when the mobile is on. This could mean losing personal settings or data stored either on your SIM card or in the mobile’s memory.

• Slide the SIM card in under the metal grooves in the SIM card slot, with the SIM card’s metal contacts facing down and the cut corner at the top left

Please note

A SIM card can be easily damaged if its metal contacts become scratched, so take special care when holding or inserting it.

If you wish to remove the SIM card, you must first press down the stay, then push the SIM card out of the slot.

Preparing your mobile for use

Power connection

Insert the charger into the slot and plug the charger into the socket. Please ensure you insert the charger the right side up and that after insertion the connector is snug to the phone. An audio tone plays when you have connected the charger properly.

Before you use your phone for the first time, charge your battery for at least four hours. Charging the battery fully each time will help prolong its life – and is much better than frequent short bursts of charging.

Charging the battery

Installing the battery

Insert the bottom of the battery into the groove at the top of the mobile. Push down the battery until it locks into place and then slide the cover back on.

Removing the battery

Slide the cover off. Push the battery latch inwards and then lift the battery to separate from the mobile.

Please note

The battery must be securely placed in the battery compartment. If the battery’s not in place your mobile won’t turn on.

Preparing your mobile for use

• Don’t remove the battery while your mobile is charging

• Don’t overcharge the Li-Ion battery, as this can result in a reduction in battery performance and life span. The recommended maximum charge time is 6-8 hours

• Never store a battery near a fire

• Don’t attempt to take the battery apart. Only use the battery approved by the manufacturer

• Never touch the battery terminals with a metallic object, as this can lead to short circuiting. Take special care when carrying a battery in your pocket

• Misuse of the battery can lead to burns from hot temperatures and even explosion. Never drop or apply any physical shock to the battery as it may damage it and even cause fire

• Please keep your battery out of children’s reach and in a dry and cool area

• Store and charge your battery at room temperature. Extremes of temperature can prevent full charging and affect battery life and performance

• Keep the terminals of the battery clean and dry

• When there is risk of lightning, remove the charger’s plug from the socket to protect the mobile

Important battery information

Charging status

If you charge your mobile

• While it is turned off, the main display shows the following animation

Mobile care

Never attempt to open the mobile casing. There are no userserviceable parts inside, and you might damage sensitive electronic circuits and components. Unauthorised disassembly will void the warranty.

Never leave your mobile in the window of your car or otherwise expose it to strong sunlight or excessive heat for a prolonged period of time as this may damage it.

Never handle your mobile with wet hands or expose it to moisture or liquids of any kind. Continuous changes from a cold to a warm environment may lead to condensation inside the mobile, resulting in corrosion and possible damage.

If you pack your mobile in your suitcase during travel, beware not to damage it. Cramming a suitcase may crack the LCD display. Remember to switch off your mobile during air travel.

Safety information for mobiles

Read this information

Your O2X1b™ mobile phone has been designed, manufactured and tested so as not to exceed the limits for exposure to electromagnetic fields recommended by the Council of the European Union. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines developed by independent scientific organisations.

European standards provide for the amount of radio frequency electromagnetic energy absorbed by the body when using a mobile phone to be measured by reference to the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR limit for the general public is currently 2 watts per kilogram averaged over 10 grams of body tissue.

Your O2X1b mobile phone SAR value is 1.09 watts per kilogram.

Safety

168

• Use only the battery approved by the manufacturer

• Never replace the battery with a non-approved battery

• Never try to open the battery as it contains substances that

might be harmful if swallowed or come into contact with unprotected skin

• Never short-circuit the battery, as it may overheat

and cause a fire. Keep away from jewellery and other metal objects

• Never dispose of the battery in a fire. It could explode and

release harmful substances into the environment

• Never dispose of the battery with your regular household

waste. Take it to a hazardous material collection point

• Do not touch the battery terminals

• Caution: Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an

incorrect type

The charger

• Use only the charger supplied with your mobile

• Never pull the charger cord to release it from the mains –

pull the charger itself

As with all other radio devices, touching the built-in antenna area during telephone conversation may impair the quality and lead to shorter standby time due to increased power consumption.

The battery

Your mobile is equipped with a high-performance Li-Ion battery. Optional battery types may be available, check with your local retailer. Observe the maintenance guidelines and your battery should give you a long service life.

• At the beginning of the battery’s life, fully charge and discharge (let it go flat) three times

• Do not over charge the Li-Ion battery, as this can result in a reduction in battery performance and life span. The recommended maximum charge time is 6-8 hours

• Avoid repeated short charging. It is preferable to let the battery go flat and then recharge it completely

• Avoid charging in strong heat or extreme cold. Ambient room temperature is preferable. The battery has its optimum performance in an ambient temperature of +5 °C to +50 °C

• Don’t store a battery near a fire or heat source

Driving safety

O2 fully supports the new legislation announced by the Department for Transport, banning the use of handheld mobile phones while driving. It is an offence while driving to hold a mobile or cradle it in your neck, at any point during the setup, making or taking of a phone call, text message or any other data related mobile communication. Use of fully installed car kits are still permitted, as are the use of alternate hands-free accessories.

In the interest of safety, we would recommend the use of a cradle while using any form of hands-free accessory. When driving we recommend that you use voicemail wherever possible, and that you listen to your messages when you are not in the car. If you must make a hands-free call when driving keep it brief.

An airbag inflates with great force. Do not place objects, including both installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area over the airbag or in the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.

WARNING: Failure to follow these instructions may lead to serious personal injury and possible property damage.

Cleaning and storing

• Your mobile should always be handled with care and protected from dirt, dust and damp. To avoid scratches, never place your mobile face down

• If cleaning is necessary, switch the mobile off and wipe carefully with a soft, slightly damp (not wet) cloth. Use a cotton swab to clean the camera lens. Allow the mobile to dry completely before switching it on. Never use solvents for cleaning

• If you’re not going to use your mobile for some time, fully charge the battery and store the mobile in a dry place away from direct sunlight. Your mobile should be switched off during storage. Recharge every 6 to 12 months

• Never expose your mobile to heat or strong sunlight

• Never expose your mobile to moisture or liquids of any kind

• Do not paint your mobile or otherwise block the keypad, microphone or earpiece function, i.e. with stickers

Electronic devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy. However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your mobile.

Pacemakers

The Health Industry Manufacturers’ Association recommends that a minimum separation of six (6”) inches be maintained between a mobile and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.

If you have a pacemaker:

• Always keep your mobile more than six inches from your pacemaker when it is turned on

• Do not carry your mobile in a breast pocket

• Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimise the potential for interference

• If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn your mobile off immediately

Hearing aids

Some digital mobiles may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, call O2Customer Service to discuss alternatives.

Other medical devices

If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information. Turn your mobile off in healthcare facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or healthcare facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.

Vehicles

RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.

To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your mobile off when in a ‘blasting area’ or in areas posted: ‘Turn off twoway radio.’ Obey all signs and instructions.

Potentially explosive atmospheres

Turn your mobile off when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include fuelling areas such as petrol stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using liquified petroleum gas (such as propane or butane); areas where the air contains chemicals or articles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders; and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle’s engine.

Posted facilities

Turn your mobile off where posted notices so require.

Magnetic media

Magnetic fields generated by mobile phones may damage data on magnetic storage media such as credit cards, computer discs or tapes. Do not place your phone next to such media. You should never expose your phone to strong magnetic fields as this may cause temporary malfunction.
