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 power supply must be plugged into an easily accessible AC mains power socket when charging the bat­tery. The only way to turn off the charging device after charging the battery is to unplug it.
The ring tone (p. 14), info tones 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. 8). Otherwise you risk serious permanent damage to your hearing.
Improper use will invalidate the guarantee! These safety instructions also apply to Siemens original accessories.
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) 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.
Do not use an optical magnifier to look at the activated infrared inter­face [Class 1 LED product (classifi­cation as per IEC 60825-1)].
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.

Getting started
Using the SIM card/battery
Your phone's display is delivered with a protective film. Remove this film before get- ting started. The service provider supplies you with a SIM card on which all the im­portant data for your account is stored. If the SIM card is credit card-sized, snap out the smaller segment and trim any rough edges.
Press depression cover downwards in the direction of the arrow

Always switch off phone before removing the battery!
Only 3V and 1.8V SIM cards are support­ed. Please contact your service provider if you have an older card.
Charge battery
The battery is not fully charged when de­livered. Plug charger cable into the bot­tom of the phone, plug power supply unit into a mains power socket and charge for at least two hours. The power supply unit heats up when used for long periods. This is normal and not dangerous.
6
When charging is in progress h is displayed.
Charging time
An empty battery is fully charged after about 2 hours. Charging is only possible within a temperature range of +5 °C to +40 °C. If the temperature ris­es/falls 5 °C above/below this, the charge symbol flashes a warning. The mains volt­age specified on the power supply unit must not be exceeded (Operating time, p. 22).
Charge icon not visible
If the battery has been discharged fully the charge icon is not immediately visible when the power supply unit is plugged in. It will appear after up to two hours. In this case the battery is fully charged after 3-4 hours.
Only use the power supply unit provided! Display while in service
Charge level display during operation (empty - full):
A beep sounds when the battery is nearly empty. The charge level of the battery is only displayed correctly after an uninter­rupted charging/discharging cycle. You should therefore not remove the battery un-
necessarily and where possible not termi­nate the charging process early.
