Before your first call

To use your phone, you must insert a valid SIM card for your GSM subscription.
This card contains your telephone number. It also has memory to store the phone numbers and messages you wish to retain. If you use this card on another phone, you still have the same phone number, stored numbers and messages.

PIN and PUK codes

The PIN code is a secret code in your SIM card to protect it from abusive use. If you or anyone else enters a wrong PIN code 3 times, your SIM card is blocked. To unblock it, you must request the PUK code from your Network Operator.

Precautions

Your cellular mobile phone is under 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
• Avoid writing down your PIN code. Try to remember it instead.
• Switch off the phone if you are going to leave it unused for a long time.
• Use the Security menu to change the PIN code after purchasing the phone and to activate call restriction options.

children's reach.
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.
our cellular mobile phone is a low power radio
Y
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.
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,

Inadequately protected or sensitive electronic equipment may be affected by radio energy. This interference can lead to accidents.
Always switch off your phone:
Before boarding an aircraft and or when packing the phone in your luggage.
In hospitals, clinics, other health care centres and anywhere else where you may be in the close vicinity of medical equipment.
If you are a user of a pacemaker or hearing aid, or expect to use your cellular phone in the immediate vicinity of someone who does, then take the following precautionary steps:
• Consult your physician and pacemaker or hearing aid manufacturer to learn whether your particular device is susceptible to cellular phone interference.
• Carry and hold your cellular phone at safe distance from the implanted pacemaker device and electrode (20 centimetres is generally accepted as a "safe distance", however it is advisable to check with your physician and pacemaker manufacturer).
and do not remove the battery in:
Always switch off your phone
• Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere (e.g. petrol stations and also areas where the air contains dust particles, such as metal powders).
• A vehicle transporting flammable products (even if the vehicle is parked) or a vehicle powered by liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), check first that the vehicle complies with the applicable safety rules.
• Areas where you are requested to turn off radio transmitting devices, such as quarries or other areas where blasting operations are in progress.
44
Check with the vehicle manufacturer that electronic equipment used in your vehicle will not be affected by radio energy.
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): place the antenna up over your shoulder while holding the earpiece to your ear.
• For best performance, avoid touching the antenna while a call is in progress.
• 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 during 24 hrs 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.
• Do not expose your phone to extreme temperatures.
45
Information displayed on the battery :
• 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 make all guarantees for your Philips phone null and void.
• Do not use your phone with a damaged antenna. If you touch a damaged antenna, you may suffer a minor skin burn. Have a damaged antenna replaced immediately by a qualified technician. Make sure it is replaced with a genuine Philips replacement part.
Do not use your phone while driving, as this lowers your concentration which can be dangerous. Adhere to the following guidelines:
• You should 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 cellular phone.
• If you want to use your phone in a vehicle, install the hands-free car kit which is designed for that purpose, still ensuring you give full attention to driving.
• Ensure that your phone and car kit do not block any
• 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.
airbags or other security devices fitted in your car.

Environmental care

• Please remember to observe the local regulation regarding the disposal of your packaging material, exhausted batteries and old phone and where possible 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.
Battery:
the crossed-out dustbin signifies that the battery should not be disposed of with general household waste.
Packaging:
the mobius loop symbol signifies the labelled packaging material is recyclable.
the green point symbol signifies that a financial contribution has been made to the associated national packaging recovery and recycling system (e.g. EcoEmballage in France).
The chasing arrows symbol on the plastic tray and plastic bag indicate that the materials are recyclable and also identifies the plastic material.

Troubleshooting

PROBLEM SOLUTION
The phone does not switch on.
The display shows "BLOCKED" when you switch on.
The a and

The display doesn't respond (or responds slowly) to key pushes.
When charging the battery, the battery icon shows no bars and the outline is flashing.

.
Check if the battery is correctly inserted (big arrow facing you and pointing to the top) and/or charge the phone until the battery icon has stopped flashing.
Somebody tried to use your phone but didn’t know the PIN code nor the unblocking code (PUK). Contact your service provider.
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 or contact your network operator for assistance or information about the network.
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 warmer place and try again. In other cases please contact your phone supplier.
Only charge the battery in an environment where the temperature does not go below 0°C (32°F) or above 50°C (113°F). In other cases please contact your phone supplier.
Many features are network dependent. They are only available, therefore, if the network or your subscription supports them. Please contact your subscription provider for more information.
