• Forward all conditional calls
• Forward calls when your line is busy
• Forward calls when there is no answer on your
extension after a period that you can define by
answering the questions on the menu
• Forward calls when your phone is unavailable,
outside of network coverage or switched off.
Enter the number to which you want to forward your
calls. If necessary, include the area code you would
use if you were calling the number from your phone.
Confirm by pressing the rightand key.
A message on the screen confirms that forwarding
has been activated.

Do not attempt to open your phone and repair it
yourself. The manufacturer cannot be held
responsible for any damage/accident that may result
from this.
Any work carried out by non-authorised personnel
will invalidate your warranty.
Do not use your phone in damp areas (bathroom,

Do not expose your phone to extreme temperatures
from - 10°C to + 55°C.
Do not leave your phone within the reach of small
children (certain removable parts may be accidentally
ingested).
Use your phone with original accessories, or your

The physicochemical processes created by chargers
impose temperature limits when charging the battery.
Your phone automatically protects the batteries in
extreme temperatures.
Removing the battery may mean that the time is lost.

Weight: 78 g
Size: 86 x 44 x 20 mm
Original battery: Lithium Ion 550 mAh or 680 mAh
(depending on model)
Battery life calls/standby: up to 4 h/280 h
The technical characteristics of the product are subject to
change without notice.
This mobile phone complies with European requirements
regarding 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 and ICNIRP. 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 and the ICNIRP is 2.0 W/kg*.
* The SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is
2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over 10 g 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 in different regions on the world, depending on
national reporting requirements and the network band.
myC-1_en_14charactech.pmd 22/12/2003, 16:1753
53
Technical Characteristics
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 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.
This highest SAR value for this model phone when tested
for compliance against the standard was: 1.12 W/kg.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels
of various phones and and at various positions, they all
meet the EU requirements for RF exposure.
Advice for limiting exposure to radiofrequency (RF) fields:
For individuals concerned about limiting their exposure to
RF fields, the World Health Organization (WHO) provides
the following advice:
Precautionary measures: Individuals: Present scientific
information does not indicate the need for any special
precautions for the use of mobile phones. If individuals
are concerned, they might choose to limit their own or
