Important Information

Thank you for purchasing this Panasonic digital cellular phone. This phone is designed to operate on GSM networks - GSM900, GSM1800 and GSM1900. It also supports GPRS for packet data connections. Please ensure the battery is fully charged before use. We, Matsushita Mobile Communications Development of Europe Ltd, declare, that the EB-GD87 conforms with the essential and other relevant requirements of the directive 1999/5/EC. A declaration of conformity to this effect can be found at http://www.panasonicmobile.com

Safety Considerations

The following information should be read and understood as it provides details which will enable you to operate your phone in a manner which is both safe to you and your environment, and conforms to any legal requirements regarding the use of cellular phones.

This equipment should only be charged with Panasonic approved charging equipment to ensure optimum performance and avoid damage to your phone. Other usage will invalidate any approval given to this apparatus and may be dangerous. Ensure the voltage rating of the Fast Travel Charger is compatible with the area of use when travelling abroad. A Fast Travel Charger (EB-CAD95xx*) is supplied with the Main Kit. Other recommended equipment for charging -Car Charger (EB-CDD95). Note* xx identifies the Charger region, e.g. CN, EU, HK, UK.

Use of Battery pack other than that recommended by the manufacturer may result in a safety hazard.

Switch off your cellular phone when in an aircraft. The use of cellular phones in an aircraft may be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft, disrupt the cellular network and may be illegal. Failure to observe this instruction may lead to the suspension or denial of cellular phone services to the offender, or legal action or both.

Do not incinerate or dispose of the battery as ordinary rubbish. The battery must be disposed of in accordance with local legislation and may be recycled.

Important Information

Important Information

It is advised not to use the equipment at a refuelling point. Users are reminded to observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots, chemical plants or where blasting operations are in progress. Never expose the battery to extreme temperatures (in excess of 60°C).

It is imperative that the driver exercises proper control of the vehicle at all times. Do not hold a phone while you are driving; find a safe place to stop first. Do not speak into a Handsfree microphone if it will take your mind off the road. Always acquaint yourself thoroughly with restrictions concerning the use of cellular phones within the area you are driving and observe them at all times.

Care must be taken when using the phone in close proximity to personal medical devices, such as pacemakers and hearing aids.

Do not leave the camera facing direct sunlight to avoid impair of the camera performance.

If you use a feature which keeps key backlight on continuously for a long time, such as Camera, Game, or browser, battery life will become extremely short. To maintain longer battery life, set the key backlight off. See “Setting the Key Backlight on/off.”

For most efficient use hold the phone as you would any normal phone. To avoid deterioration of signal quality or antenna performance, do not touch or “cup” the antenna area while the phone is switched on. (See ‘SAR Statement’). Unauthorised modifications or attachments may damage the phone and violate applicable regulations. The use of an unapproved modification or attachment may result in the invalidation of your guarantee – this does not affect your statutory rights.

This equipment should only be used with Panasonic approved accessories to ensure optimum performance and avoid damage to your phone. Panasonic is not responsible for damages caused by using non-Panasonic approved accessories.

This Panasonic mobile phone is designed, manufactured and tested to ensure that it complies with the specifications covering RF exposure guidelines applicable at the time of manufacture, in accordance with EU, USA FCC, and Australian ACA regulations; or as specifically stated in the separate declaration leaflet enclosed with this product.

Please refer to our website for latest information/standards compliance in your country/region of use.

SAR

European union - RTTE

THIS PANASONIC PHONE (MODEL EB-GD87) MEETS THE EU REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.

Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy recommended by The Council of the European Union. 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 organisations 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.

The exposure standard for mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit recommended by The Council of the European Union is 2.0 W/kg.* Tests for SAR have been conducted using standard operating positions with the phone 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 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.

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 SAR value for this model phone, when tested for use at the ear, for compliance against the standard was 0.633 W/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.

* 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. SAR values may vary depending on national reporting requirements and the network band.

For SAR information in other regions please look under product information at http://www.panasonicmobile.com/health.html

Care and Maintenance

Pressing any of the keys may produce a loud tone. Avoid holding the phone close to the ear while pressing the keys.

Extreme temperatures may have a temporary effect on the operation of your phone. This is normal and does not indicate a fault.

If you use the phone for a long time in temperatures over 40°C, the display quality may deteriorate.

Do not modify or disassemble the equipment. There are no user serviceable parts.

Do not subject the equipment to excessive vibration or shock.

Do not drop the battery.

Avoid contact with liquids. If the equipment becomes wet immediately remove the power and contact your dealer.

Do not leave the equipment in direct sunlight or a humid, dusty or hot area.

Never throw a battery into a fire. It may explode.

Keep metallic items that may accidentally touch the terminals away from the equipment/battery.

Batteries can cause property damage, injury, or burns if terminals are touched with a conductive material (for example, metal jewellery, keys etc).

Always charge the battery in a well ventilated area, not in direct sunlight, between +5°C and +35°C. It is not possible to recharge the battery if it is outside this temperature range.

When connecting the phone to an external source, read the operating instructions of the equipment for the correct connection and safety precautions. Ensure the phone is compatible with the product it is being connected to.

When disposing of any packing materials or old equipment check with your local authorities for information on recycling.

Using the Internet and Faxing

You can join your GD87 and a PC together via an infrared connection to access the Internet, and to send and receive faxes. The following explains how to set up communication between the GD87 and a PC. These instructions should be used in conjunction with your Internet platform software and/or your fax software.

Prerequisites

Faxing: contact your mobile phone network operator to determine whether this feature is available to you.

Ensure that you have set up a dial up account with an Internet Service Provider.

You will need the installation CD from your ISP, or your account details (i.e. phone number, user name and password) to configure Dial Up Networking within Windows.

When you set up your Internet account for the first time, make sure that you select GD87 as the connecting modem device. (For more details contact your Internet Service Provider, or for help using Windows Dial Up Networking, search Windows Help [Start>Help])

Testing the Infrared Connection

The following process will set up a PC to connect to your GD87 using the Windows standard communication software, HyperTerminal, as an example (the process described may vary slightly for other software packages).

Note: Depending on how your computer has been set up ‘HyperTerminal’ may not be located in ‘Communications’ (as detailed in the first instruction).

Select Start > Programs > Accessories >

Communications > HyperTerminal Double click on HyperTerminal.

In the Connection Description dialogue box, enter a name of your choice in the Name field and click OK.

In the Phone Number dialog box, select the country/region

code, enter your Internet Service Provider’s phone number and confirm that GD87 is selected in the “Connect using” box. Click OK. When the connect dialogue box is displayed, click Cancel.

Select File > properties and confirm that GD87 is selected.

Click OK. In the HyperTerminal window, type AT+CGMI and click.

If GD87 has connected successfully you will receive the reply OK.
