Safety precautions
Information for parents
Please read the operating instructions and safety precautions carefully before use. Explain the content and the hazards associated with using the phone to your children.
Remember to comply with legal requirements and local restrictions when using the phone. For example in aeroplanes, petrol stations, hospitals or while driving.
Mobile phones can interfere with the functioning of medical devices such as hearing aids or pacemakers. Keep at least 20 cm/9 inches between phone and pacemaker. When using the mobile phone hold it to the ear which is further away from the pacemaker. For more infor­mation consult your doctor.
The SIM card may be removed. Caution! Small parts like this could be swallowed by young children.
The mains voltage specified on the power supply unit (V) must not be exceeded. Otherwise the charging device may be destroyed.
The ringtone (p. 43), info tones (p. 44) and handsfree talking are reproduced through the loudspeaker. Do not hold the phone to your ear when it rings. Otherwise you risk serious permanent damage to your hearing.
Important:
Improper use will invalidate the guarantee!
Only use original Siemens batteries (100 % mercury-free) and – charging devices. Otherwise you risk serious damage to health and property. The battery could explode, for instance.
You may only open the phone tore place the battery (100 % mercury-free) or SIM card. You must not open the battery under any circumstances. All other changes to this device are strictly prohibited and will invalidate the guarantee.
Please dispose of unwanted batteries and phones as permitted by the laws in your country.
The phone may cause interference in the vicinity of TV sets, radios and PCs.
Use only Siemens original accessories. This will avoid potential risks to health or property and ensure compliance with all relevant regulations.

Note
Your phone's display and the display on the top shell are delivered with a protective film. Remove this film before getting started. In rare cases the static discharge may cause discolouration at the edges of the display. However this will disappear within 10 minutes.
To avoid damage to the display, the phone should not be used without the top shell.

Voice message/Mailbox
Most service providers offer you an external answering service. In this mailbox, a caller may leave a voice message for you
• if your phone is switched off or not ready to receive,
• if you do not want to answer calls,
• if you are making a phone call (and if Call waiting is not active, p. 46).
If the voice mail service is not part of your service provider's user package, you will need to register for it and the settings must be made manually. The procedure described below may vary slightly depending on the serv­ice provider.
Settings
Your service provider supplies you with two phone numbers:
