Safety precautions
Note for parents
Read the operating instructions and safety precautions carefully before use.
Explain the content to your children and the hazards associated with using the phone.
When in a hospital switch off
your phone. Mobile phones can
interfere with the functioning of
medical devices such as hearing aids or pacemakers. Keep at
least 20cm/9 inches between
the 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.
Always use the handsfree kit for
calls while driving (p. 83).
Mobile phones must be
switched off at all times in an aircraft. To prevent accidental activation, see p. 66.
Switch off near petrol stations,
fuel depots, chemical plants or
blasting operations. Mobile
phones can interfere with the
operation of technical installations.
SIM card may be removed. Caution! Small parts could be swallowed by children.
The main voltage (V) specified
on the power supply unit must
not be exceeded.
The ringtone (p. 53), info tones
(p. 55) and handsfree talking are
reproduced through the loudspeaker. Do not hold the phone
to your ear when it rings or when
you have switched on the handsfree function (p. 19). You otherwise risk serious, permanent
damage to your hearing.
Only use original Siemens batteries (100% mercury-free) and
charging devices. You otherwise risk serious damage to
health and property: the battery
could explode, for instance.
You may only open the phone to
replace the battery (100% mercury-free), front and back covers, keypad or SIM card. You
must not open the battery under
any circumstances. Any other
changes to this device are strictly prohibited, as they will invalidate the guarantee.
3
4
Please note:
Safely dispose of used batteries
and phones according to the legal regulations.
Mobile phones can interfere
with the operation of nearby
TVs, radios or PCs.
Only use original Siemens
accessories as the only way to
avoid possible damage to health
and property and to comply with
the existing regulations.
Improper use invalidates the warranty!

Note
Your phone's display and the display on the top shell are delivered with a protective film. Re-
move 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.

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. 57).
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.
