Safety precautions

Switch off in hospitals or in the vicinity of medical devices, e.g. hearing aids. You should keep a minimum distance of 20 cm between pacemaker and mobile phone. When using the mobile phone, hold it to the ear which is farthest away from the pacemaker.

Always use the handsfree kit for calls while driving (p. 68).

Mobile phones must be switched off at all times in an aircraft. To prevent accidental activation, see (p. 51).

Switch off near petrol stations, fuel depots, chemical plants or blasting operations. Mobile phones can interfere with the operation of technical installations.

The ring tone is reproduced through the earpiece. To avoid damage to hearing, first accept the call, then hold the phone to the ear.

SIM card may be removed. Caution! Small parts could be swallowed by children.

The mains voltage specified on the power supply unit must not be exceeded.

We recommend you use only original Siemens batteries (100% mercury-free) and charging devices. Otherwise considerable health risks and damage to the product cannot be excluded.

Neither the phone nor the battery (100% mercury-free) may be opened under any circumstances (except when exchanging the battery, SIM card or top shell). Any other changes to this device are strictly prohibited, as they will invalidate the type approval criteria required for operation of the unit.

Please note

Improper use invalidates the warranty!

Dispose of used batteries and phones according to the legal regulations.

Mobile phones can interfere with the operation of nearby TVs, radios, PCs.

We recommend you use only original Siemens accessories to avoid possible damage and to comply with the existing regulations.

Charge battery

The battery is not fully charged when delivered, so:

• Plug in charger cable at the bottom of the phone, plug in the plugin power supply unit to the mains power socket and charge for at least two hours.

If the battery is totally discharged no charge icon is displayed at the beginning of the charging process.

If this is the case leave the charger cable plugged in, the charge icon will appear after a maximum of 2 hours. The battery is then automatically charged.

• Push the sides of the charger cable plug together and pull to remove it.

Charging

The charger heats up when used for long periods. This is normal and not dangerous.

Á e

An empty battery is fully charged after about 2 hours. Charging is only possible in an ambient temperature of 5 °C to 40 °C (the charge icon flashes as a warning when the temperature is 5 °C above/below this range). The voltage specified on the power supply must not be exceeded.

Operating times

A fully charged battery provides 60-250 hours of standby time or 100- 300 minutes of talk time. The operating times are average values and depend on the operating conditions (see table below).

Quality declaration for battery

The capacity of your mobile phone battery reduces each time you charge/discharge it. Storing the battery at temperatures that are too high or too low also causes a gradual loss of capacity. This can cause the operating times of your mobile phone to reduce significantly per usage cycle.

The battery is, however, designed to be charged and fully discharged within a period of six months from when the mobile phone was purchased. Following this sixmonth period we recommend replacing your battery if you experience a significant drop in performance. Please purchase only Siemens original batteries.

Personalisation

The 1168 offers you numerous options for personalisation, i.e. individual configuration to suit your own specific tastes. For example you can have operator graphics as bitmaps * or screensavers sent via SMS to your mobile phone. SMS can also be used to send sounds as ring tones to your

1168. The Siemens City Portal offers nu-

merous ring tones, screensavers and operator bitmaps*.

You will find the City Portal in the Internet under:

www.my-siemens.com/city

The portal also includes a list of countries where this service is available.

The following pages in the User Guide describe the relevant download process:

Ring tones ............................ p. 54

Screensaver.......................... p. 56

Operator bitmaps* ............... p. 56

* An operator bitmap is a graphic which can be loaded into the display of the mobile telephone in place of the network operator designation and will appear there permanently. This graphic is however linked to the network of the operator concerned and is not usually displayed during roaming (e.g. when you are logged on abroad to the network of another provider).

In addition you can choose another colour for the top or bottom cover or even use a personal photo in JPEG format to make your 1168 unique. To make it easier for you to do this, you can choose one of a number of templates that best suits your requirements. Naturally you can also create the front and back of your mobile telephone entirely as you wish.

If you want to load another dictionary (T9 language version) to make it easier to write SMS messages in another language, you will find a large choice of dictionaries for downloading via the internet as well as the relevant installation notes at:

SAR (international)

THIS PHONE MEETS REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.

Your mobile phone 1168 is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) recommended by international guidelines (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 guidelines 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 stated in the international guidelines is

2.0 W/kg*. Tests for SAR are 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 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, the

lower the power output of the phone.

The highest SAR value for this model phone 1168 when tested for use at the ear is 0.97 W/kg. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the relevant international guidelines 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 body tissue. The guidelines incorporate 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
