When you use your phone for the first time, you need to set the date and time. In due course, when the battery is completely discharged, or if it has been removed, you will be prompted systematically to confirm date and time.

If the network icon appears, calls are possible on your operator's network. If the the icon and a network name are displayed, calls are possible on the network of a different operator. If the the icon is displayed without any network name, only the emergency services are accessible (ambulance, police, fire brigade). If the network icon flashes, the phone is in permanent search mode. There is no network available. The signal strength indicator received allows you to display the quality of reception. If it indicates less than three bars, search for better reception in order to call in good conditions.

16 Activating your phone

Using your phone

Freeing the antenna

The antenna is integrated in your phone, under the back cover at the top. Avoid putting your fingers on this area when the phone is switched ON. If your fingers obstruct the antenna, the phone may have to operate with a higher power level than usual; decreasing its efficiency quickly. It could also affect the

quality of your communications.

Non ionising radiation

To obtain maximum satisfaction from your phone, use it in a vertical position. Your personal safety can only be improved by doing so.

Increase the efficiency of your phone

- Don't press the keys when not necessary: each keypress activates the backlight, and uses much power.

- Don't obstruct the antenna with your fingers.

- Activation of IrDA or Bluetooth functions reduces the phone battery life. We advise you to deactivate them when not in use.

Using your phone 17

Charging the battery

Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery. A new battery must be charged for 4 hours at least before being used for the first time. It reaches its optimum capacity after a few cycles of use.

When your battery has been discharged, the phone displays the state (empty battery icon flashes). In this case recharge your battery for at least 15 minutes before making any calls in order not to be cut off in the middle of a call.

To recharge the battery:

Connect the charger to a socket. Plug the end of the cable into the side connector of the phone. The phone is then charging up. The battery icon is scrolling up and down to

indicate that it is charging. When the battery is fully charged, the charging stops on its own. Disconnect the cable. When charging, the battery may warm up, this phenomenon is normal.

WARNING

There is danger of explosion if the battery is placed in an incorrectly way or if it is exposed to fire. Do not short circuit it. The battery does not have any part that you can change. Do not try to open the battery casing. Use only the appropriate chargers and batteries as shown in the phone manufacturer's catalogue. The use of other types of chargers or batteries may be dangerous or invalidate the warranty. Used batteries must be disposed of in the appropriate places. We advise you to take the battery out if you plan not to use the phone for extended periods. You are strongly advised not to connect your phone to the charger if it doesn’t contain a battery. The charger is a safety step-down transformer, it is forbidden to modify, alter or replace it by another component (power supply plug, etc). If the battery has entirely discharged, the phone cannot start. Plug the phone to the charger. The phone will switch on after a few minutes of charge. You can use the phone again when the Start option is displayed on the screen.
