Safety precautions
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.
Small parts such as the SIM card,
sealing stop, lens ring and lens cap
can be dismantled and swallowed by
small children. The phone must
therefore be stored out of the reach
of small 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. 23), info tones
(p. 23) 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. 10). Otherwise you risk serious
permanent damage to your hearing.
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 to replace the battery (100 % mercuryfree), faceplate, keypad 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.
Important:
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.
Improper use will invalidate the guarantee!

Security
The phone and SIM card are protected
against misuse by several security codes.
Keep these confidential numbers in a safe
place where you can access them again if
required.
§Menu§ ¢ Setup ¢ Security ¢ Select a
function:
PIN control
The PIN is usually requested each time
the phone is switched on. You can deactivate this feature but you risk unauthorised use of the phone. Some service providers do not permit deactivation of the
control.
Change PIN
You can change the PIN to any 4–8 digit
number you may find easier to remember.
Change PIN 2
(Displayed only if PIN 2 is available). Proceed as with Change PIN.
Change phonecode
You define and enter the phone code
(4– 8 digits) when calling a phone code
protected function (e.g. Direct call, p. 11)
for the first time. It is then valid for all
protected functions. If it is entered incorrectly three times the phone is locked.
Contact the Siemens Service (p. 27).
Clear SIM card barring
If the PIN is entered incorrectly three
times, the SIM card is barred. Enter the
PUK (MASTER PIN) provided by your service provider with the SIM card. If the PUK
(MASTER PIN) has been lost, please contact your service provider.
Prevent accidental activation
Even if PIN use is deactivated (p. 9) confirmation is required to switch on the
phone.
This prevents accidental activation of the
phone, e.g. when you are carrying it in a
bag or when you are travelling in an aircraft.
