1. Getting Started

Please read the safety instructions in the “Precautions” section before using your phone.
To use your phone, you must insert a valid SIM card supplied by your network operator or retailer. The SIM card contains your subscription information, your mobile phone number and a memory in which you can store phone numbers and messages.

Insert the SIM card

Follow the steps below to insert your new SIM card. Remember to switch off your mobile phone before removing the back cover and battery.

Remove the back cover

To insert the SIM card, you must first remove the back cover. Press on the back cover with your thumb and slide the cover downwards. Then use your free hand to lift up the door of the battery compartment as shown below.
4 Getting Started
Remove the battery
To remove the battery, lift up the battery from the bottom as show below.

Insert the SIM card

Make sure the clipped corner of the SIM card is facing the correct direction and the metallic contacts facing downwards. Slide the SIM card into the SIM card slot until it stops.

Replace the back cover

Replace the back cover by sliding it up into its slot, until it stops.

Replace the battery

Slide the battery back to its slot, with the gold contacts facing downwards until it stops. Then lock it by pushing it downwards.

Remove the protective film covering the screen before using the phone.

Switch on the phone

To switch on the phone, long press ) key. Enter the PIN code if required. It is preconfigured and communicated to you by your operator or retailer. For more information on PIN code, see "Security".
If you enter an incorrect PIN code three times in succession, your SIM card will be locked. To unlock it, you must obtain the PUK code from your network operator.
Getting Started 5

Charge the battery

Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery. A new battery is partially charged and an alarm will warn you when the battery level is low. If the battery is empty, it needs to be charged for 2 or 3 minutes before the battery symbol indicators flash. Plug the charger into the charger connector at the top left side of the phone as shown below. Then plug the other end of the charger into an AC power socket. The battery symbol indicates the state of charge. The charge indicators will scroll when the battery is charging. The battery is fully charged when the charge indicators stop scrolling. You can then disconnect the charger.
Keeping the charger plugged to the mobile phone when the battery is fully charged will not damage the battery. The only way to disconnect the charger is to unplug it, so use an easily accessible AC power socket. If you would not use your phone for a period of time, we recommend that you remove the battery.
You can use your phone while it is charging. When the battery is completely discharged, the charge indicators will appear only after a few minutes of charging.

Precautions

Radio Waves
Your cellular mobile phone is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is operating, it sends
and receives radio waves. The radio waves carry your voice or data signal to a base station that is connected to the telephone network. The network controls the power at which the phone transmits.
• Your phone transmits/receives radio waves in the
GSM frequency (900 / 1800 MHz).
• The GSM network controls transmission power
(0.01 to 2 watts).
• Your phone complies with all relevant safety
standards.
• The CE mark on your phone shows compliancy
with European electromagnetic compatibility (Ref. 89/336/EEC) and low voltage directives
(Ref. 73/23/EEC). Your cellular mobile phone is your responsibility. To avoid damage to yourself, to others or to the phone itself, read and follow all the safety instructions and make them known to anyone
borrowing your phone. Furthermore to prevent unauthorised use of your phone:
Keep your phone in a safe place and keep it out of small children's reach. Avoid writing down your PIN code. Try
to remember it instead. Switch off the phone and remove the battery if you are going to leave it unused for a long time. Change your PIN code after purchasing the phone and to activate call restriction options.
The design of your phone complies with all applicable laws and regulations. However your phone may cause
interference with other electronic devices. Consequently you should follow all local recommendations and regulations when using your cellular phone both at home and when away.
Regulations on the use of cellular phones in vehicles and aircraft are particularly stringent.
Public concern has been focused for some time on the possible health risks for users of cellular phones. The current research on radio wave technology, including the GSM technology, has been reviewed and safety standards have been drawn up to ensure protection from exposure to
27
radio wave energy. Your cellular telephone
complies with all applicable safety standards
and the Radio Equipment and Telecommunications Terminal Equipment Directive 1999/5/EC.
Always switch off your phone...
Inadequately protected or sensitive electronic equipment may be affected by radio energy. This
interference can lead to accidents.
Before boarding an aircraft and/or when packing the phone in your luggage: the use of mobile phones in an aircraft may be
dangerous for the operation of the aircraft, disrupt the mobile phones network and may be illegal.
In hospitals, clinics, other health care
centres and anywhere else where you may
be in the close vicinity of medic
equ
ipment.
In areas with a potentially explosive
atmosphere (e.g. petrol stations and
also areas where the air contains dust
particles, such as metal powders). In a vehicle transporting flammable products (even if the vehicle is parked) or a vehicle powered by
28
liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), check first that the vehicle complies with the applicable safety rules. In areas where you are requested to turn off radio transmitting devices, such as quarries or other areas where blasting operations are in progress.
Check with the vehicle manufacturer that electronic equipment used in your vehicle will not be affected by radio energy.
Pacemakers
If you have a pacemaker:
• Always keep the phone more than 15 cm from your pacemaker when the phone is switched on, in order to avoid potential interference.
• Do not carry the phone in a breastpocket.
• Use the ear opposite to the pacemaker to
al
minimise the potential interference.
• Switch off your phone if you suspect that interference is taking place.
Hearing aids
If you are a user of a hearing aid, consult your physician and hearing aid manufacturer to learn whether your particular device is susceptible to cellular phone interference.
Improved performance
In order to improve the performance of your phone, reduce radio energy emission, reduce battery consumption and ensure safe operation adhere to the following guidelines:
For the optimal and satisfactory operation of the phone you are recommended to use the phone in the normal operating position (when not using in hands-free
mode or with a hands-free accessory).
• Do not expose your phone to extreme temperatures.
• Treat the phone with care. Any misuse will void the International Guarantee.
• Do not immerse the phone in any liquid; if your phone is damp, switch it off, remove the battery and let them dry for 24hrs before using them again.
• To clean the phone, wipe it with a soft cloth.
• Placing and receiving calls consumes the same amount of battery energy. However, the mobile consumes less energy in idle screen when kept in the same place. When in idle screen and while you are moving, your phone consumes energy to transmit updated location information to the network. Setting the backlight for a shorter
period of time as well as avoiding unnecessary navigating in the menus will also help to save the battery’s energy for longer phoning and stand-by performances.
Battery information
• Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery.
• Use specified charger only.
• Do not incinerate.
• Do not deform or open the battery.
• Do not allow metal objects (such as keys in your pocket) to short circuit the battery contacts.
•Avoid exposure to excessive heat (>60°C or 140° F), moisture or caustic environments.
You should only use Philips Authentic Accessories, as the use of any other accessories may damage your phone and
will make all guarantees for your Philips phone null and void. Make sure damaged parts are replaced immediately by a qualified technician and that they are replaced with genuine Philips replacement parts.
29
Your mobile phone and your car
Studies have shown that speaking on the telephone while driving lowers your concentration, which can be dangerous. Adhere to the following guidelines:
• Give your full attention to driving. Pull off the road and park before using the phone.
• Respect the local regulations in countries where you drive and use your GSM phone.
• If you want to use your phone in a vehicle, install the hands-free car kit which is designed for that purpose.
• Ensure that your phone and car kit do not block any air bags or other security devices fitted in your car.
The use of an alarm system to operate a vehicle's light or horn to indicate incoming phone calls is prohibited on public roads in some countries. Check local regulations.
EN 60950 Norm
In hot weather or after prolonged exposure to the sun (e.g., behind a window or a windscreen), the temperature of your phone's casing might increase, especially when featuring a metallic finish. Be very careful in this case when picking up your phone and
30
also avoid using it with an ambient temperature over 40° C or below 5° C. For your phone, the socket-outlet shall be installed near the phone and shall be accessible.
Environmental care
Remember to observe the local regulations regarding the disposal of the packaging materials, exhausted batteries
and old phone and please promote their recycling. Philips has marked the battery and packaging with standard symbols designed to promote the recycling and appropriate disposal of your eventual waste.
The labelled packaging material is recyclable.
A financial contribution has been made to the associated national packaging recovery and recycling system.
The plastic material is recyclable (also identifies the type of plastic).

Troubleshooting

The phone does not switch on

Remove/reinstall the battery. Then charge the phone until the battery icon stops scrolling. Unplug from charger and try to switch the mobile on.

Your phone doesn’t return to the idle screen

Long press the hangup key or switch off the phone, check that the SIM card and the battery are installed correctly and switch it on again.

The network symbol is not displayed

The network connection is lost. Either you are in a radio shadow (in a tunnel or between tall buildings) or you are outside the network coverage area. Try from another place, try to reconnect to the network (especially when abroad), check that the antenna is in place if your mobile has an external antenna, or contact your network operator for assistance/information.

The display doesn’t respond (or the display responds slowly) to key presses

The display responds more slowly at very low temperatures. This is normal and does not affect the operation of the phone. Take the phone to a
32
warmer place and try again. In other cases please contact your phone supplier.

Your battery seems to over heat

You might be using a charger that was not intended for your phone. Make sure you always use the Philips authentic accessory shipped with your phone.

Your phone doesn’t display the phone numbers of incoming calls

This feature is network and subscription dependent. If the network doesn’t send the caller’s number, the phone will display Call 1 or With held instead. Contact your operator for detailed information on this subject.

You can’t send text messages

Some networks don’t allow message exchanges with other networks. First check that you entered the number of your SMS centre, or contact your operator for detailed information on this subject.

You have the feeling that you miss some calls

Check your call divert options.

The display shows No SIM card

Check that the SIM card has been inserted in the right position. If the problem remains, your SIM card may be damaged. Contact your operator.

When attempting to use a feature in the menu, the mobile displays NOT ALLOWED

Some features are network dependent. They are only available, therefore, if the network or your subscription supports them. Contact your operator for detailed information on this subject.

Your phone is not charging

SAR Information - International
(ICNIRP)
THIS MOBILE PHONE MEETS THE INTERNATIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS FOR EXPOSURE TO
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 defined by the international standards. These recommendations have been established by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) and, the Institue of Electrical and Electronics Engineers - Standard Associations (IEEE-SA) that forcast a substantial safety margin for assuring the protection of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure recommendations for mobile phones use a measurement unit known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR limit recommended by the ICNIRP for the mobile phones used by the general public is 2.0 W/kg in 10g of tissue and, is 1,6W/kg in 1g of tissue by IEEE-SA (IEEE Std 1528) for the head. Tests for SAR have been conducted using recommended operating positions with the mobile phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at its highest certified power level, the actual SAR levels of the mobile phone while operating are generally below the maximum SAR 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. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the international protection standards for exposure to radio waves.
The highest SAR value for this Philips 193 when tested for compliance against the standard was 0.596 W/kg for ICNIRP recommendation and 0.868 W/kg for IEEE Std 1528.
For limiting the radio waves exposure, it is recommened to reduce the mobile phone call duration or to use a headset. The purpose of those precautions is to take the mobile phone away from the head and the body.
