Read the operating instructions and safety precautions carefully before use.
Explain to your children the contents and the hazards associated with using the phone.
Do not use mobile phone in hospitals or in the vicinity of medical
devices, such as pacemakers or
hearing aids. Mobile phones may
interfere with the operation of
these devices. Keep a minimum
distance of 8" between pacemaker and mobile phone. When using the mobile phone hold it to the
ear farthest from the pacemaker.
Always use the handsfree kit
(p. 95) with an external antenna
for calls while driving!
Mobile phones must be switched
off at all times in an aircraft. To
prevent accidental activation,
see (p. 67).
Switch off near service stations,
fuel depots, chemical plants or
blasting operations. Mobile
phones can interfere with the
operation of technical installations.
Acoustic Shock Warning
The ringtone (p. 80), info tones
(p. 81) and speakerphone talking
are reproduced through the loudspeaker. Do not hold the phone
to the ear when it rings or when
you have switched on the speakerphone function (p. 26).
Otherwise, there is a risk of serious lasting damage to hearing.
Caution! The SIM card may be
removed. Caution! Small parts
could be swallowed by children.
Please note:
Do not exceed the input voltage
specified on the power supply.
. Only use original Siemens
batteries (100% mercury-free)
and charging devices. Otherwise, considerable health risks
and damage to the product cannot be excluded: the battery
could explode, for instance.
It is recommended that you open
the phone only to replace the battery (100% mercury-free) or SIM
card. Do not open the battery under any circumstances. Any other
changes to this device may invalidate the FCC authorization required for operation of the unit,
and are strictly prohibited.
Safely dispose of used batteries
and phones according to local
regulations.
Mobile phones can interfere
with the operation of nearby
TVs, radios or PCs.
Only use original Siemens
accessories to avoid possible
damage to health and property
and to comply with the existing

Safety Information4
Important
Read this information before using
your wireless handheld phone.
As this mobile phone is equipped
with a fixed (non-retractable)
antenna, some paragraphs in the
below text may not be applicable.
Antenna care
Use only the supplied or an approved
replacement antenna. Unauthorized
antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the phone and
may violate FCC regulations.
Phone operation
Normal position
Hold the phone as you would any
other telephone with the antenna
pointed up and over your shoulder.
Tips on efficient operation
For your phone to operate most
efficiently:
• Extend your antenna fully
(if applicable).
• Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when the phone is in use.
Contact with the antenna affects
call quality and may cause the
phone to operate at a higher
power level than otherwise
needed.
PTT operation
Depending on the service options
offered by your service provider, you
may be able to use the C61 phone as
a two-way radio (push-to-talk
mode). In order to maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines while using the C61 phone in
push-to-talk mode, the phone must
be held in a vertical position at least
one inch (2.5cm) from the lips.
Driving
Laws pertaining to the use of mobile
phones while driving vary significantly from state-to-state and sometimes even from locality-to-locality
within states. For example, some
areas may allow persons to use their
mobile phones only if they employ a
hands-free device, and some areas
may prohibit the use of mobile
phones entirely. Accordingly, Siemens recommends that persons
check the laws for the areas in which
they drive or will be driving. For
areas where the use of mobile
phones while driving is permitted,
Siemens encourages persons to use
their phones responsibly and to
employ hands-free devices. Also, if
using your phone while driving,
please:
• Give full attention to driving –
driving safely is your first
responsibility;
• Use hands-free operation, if
available;
Page 6
5Safety Information
• Pull off the road and park before
making or answering a call, if
driving conditions so require.
For vehicles equipped with
Air Bags
An air bag inflates with great force.
DO NOT place objects, including
either installed or portable wireless
equipment, in the area over the air
bag or in the air bag deployment
area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed and the
air bag inflates, serious injury could
result.
Electronic devices
Most modern electronic equipment
is shielded from radiofrequency (RF)
signals. However, certain electronic
equipment may not be shielded
against the RF signals from your
wireless phone.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturer’s
Association recommends that a minimum separation of six inches (6”)
be maintained between a handheld
wireless phone and a pacemaker to
avoid potential interference with the
pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology
Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
• should ALWAYS keep the phone
more than six inches from their
pacemaker when the phone is
turned ON;
• should not carry the phone in a
breast pocket;
• should use the ear opposite the
pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference;
• should turn the phone OFF immediately if there is any reason to
suspect that interference is taking
place.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may
interfere with some hearing aids. In
the event of such interference, you
may want to consult your service
provider or your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical devices, consult the manufacturers of your devices to determine if
they are adequately shielded from
external RF energy. Your physician
may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
Turn your phone OFF in health care
facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do
so. Hospitals or health care facilities
may be using equipment that could
be sensitive to external RF energy.
Page 7
Safety Information6
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly
installed or inadequately shielded
electronic systems in motor vehicles.
Check with the manufacturer or its
representative regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the
manufacturer of any equipment that
has been added to your vehicle.
Posted Facilities
Turn your phone OFF in any facility
where posted notices so require.
Airplanes
FCC and Airline Regulations prohibit
using your phone while in the air.
Turn your phone OFF when requested by the airline.
Check and comply with the policy of
your airline regarding the use of your
phone while the airplane is on the
ground.
Blasting areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone OFF when
in a “blasting area” or in areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio.” Obey
all signs and instructions.
Potentially explosive
atmospheres
Turn your phone OFF when in any
area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere and obey all signs and
instructions. Sparks in such areas
could cause an explosion or fire
resulting in bodily injury or even
death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always
clearly marked. They include: fueling
areas such as gasoline stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical
transfer or storage facilities; vehicles
using liquefied petroleum gas (such
as propane or butane); areas where
the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal
powders; and any other area where
you would normally be advised to
turn off your vehicle engine.
Emergency calls (SOS)
Your wireless phone can be used
to make emergency calls. You can
make an emergency call from the
main display screen. Enter the local
emergency number such as 911 and
then press the
This phone, like any wireless phone,
operates using radio signals, wireless and landline networks, and userprogrammed functions. Because of
this, connections in all conditions
cannot be guaranteed. Therefore,
you should never rely solely on any
wireless phone for essential communications (for example, medical
emergencies). Remember - to make
or receive any calls, the phone must
be switched on and be used in a service area that has adequate signal
strength. Emergency calls might not

be possible on all wireless phone
networks or when certain network
services or phone features are in use.
Check with local service providers regarding their network features.
Always make certain that your
phone is properly charged before
attempting any emergency calls. If
you allow your battery to discharge,
you will be unable to receive or make
calls, including emergency calls. You
must then wait a few minutes after
the charging begins to place any
emergency calls.
When making an emergency call,
remember to give all of the necessary information as accurately as
possible. Remember that your wireless phone might be the only means
of communication at the scene of an
accident, therefore you should not
terminate the call until given permission to do so.

SAR (Cell Phone Designation)8
RF EXPOSURE /SPECIFIC
ABSORPTION RATE (SAR)
INFORMATION
THIS SIEMENS C61 PHONE MEETS
THE GOVERNMENT'S
REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO
ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS.
Your cell phone is a radio transmitter
and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission
limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy established by
the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government and by Health Canada. These
limits are part of comprehensive
guidelines and establish permitted
levels of RF energy for the general
population. The guidelines were
developed and confirmed by independent scientific organizations
through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies*. The limits include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of
all persons, regardless of age and
health.
The exposure standard for cell
phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit
established by the FCC and by Health
Canada is 1.6 W/kg**. Tests for SAR
are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC
and by Industry Canada 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 level 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 wireless base station, the lower the power output.
Before a phone model is available for
sale to the public, it must be tested
and the manufacturer must certify to
the FCC and Industry Canada that it
does not exceed the limit established by each government for safe
exposure. The tests are performed in
positions and locations (e.g., at the
ear and worn on the body), reported
to the FCC and available for review
by Industry Canada. The highest SAR
value for this model phone when
testest for use at the ear is
and when worn on the body
0.656 W/kg***
0.637 W/kg***
and during PTT operation

is
is
0.117 W/kg***
Additional information on Specific
Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found
on the Cellular Telecommunications
Internet Association (CTIA) web-site
at www.phonefacts.net or the Canadian Wireless Telecommunications
Association (CWTA) website
www.cwta.ca.
SAR information on this Siemens
C61 phone is on file with the FCC
and can be found under the Display
Page 10
9SAR (Cell Phone Designation)
Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid
after searching on FCC ID PWX-C61.
While there may be differences
between the SAR levels of various
phones and at various positions, all
Siemens products meet the
governmental requirements for safe
RF exposure.
+
For body worn operation, this
mobile phone has been tested
and meets FCC RF exposure
guidelines when used with a
Siemens accessory designated
for this product, where
available, or when used with a
carry accessory that contains no
metal and that positions the
handset at least 1.5 cm/0.59 in
from the body. Use of other
carry accessories may not ensure
compliance with FCC RF
exposure guidelines.
++
For PTT operation, this device
has been tested and meets FCC
RF exposure guidelines with the
front of the device vertically
positioned at least 2.5 cm/1 in
from the lips.

If the message cannot be transmitted to the
service center you are offered the chance
to repeat the transmission. If this also fails,
contact your service provider.
The Message sent!message only indicates transmission to the service center.
This will then attempt to relay the message
within a certain period.

from the Internet. Downloading or running
applications will not affect or change the software
already installed on your Java™-enabled
mobile phone.
Siemens excludes all warranty and liability claims
in respect of or in connection with any
applications subsequently installed by the
customer and not included in the original delivery
package. This also applies to functions enabled
subsequently at the customer's instigation. The
purchaser bears sole risk for the loss of, damage
to, and any defects arising in, this device or the
applications and for any direct damage or
consequential damage of whatever nature
resulting from the use of these applications.
For technical reasons, such applications and
subsequent enabling of certain functions are lost
in the event of the device being replaced/resupplied and may be lost if it is repaired.
In these cases the purchaser will need to
download the application again or re-enable it as
well. Your use of this device must not infringe the
rights of any third party. Note that your device has
Digital Rights Management (DRM) so that
individual applications downloaded via WAP are

First delete the call list, then create
"new entries" by dialing phone numbers and canceling before the connection is established.
(Phone-code protected)
The phone can be connected to a
SIM card when the phone code is
entered. Unless the phone code is
known the phone will not operate
with a different SIM card.
If the phone is to be used with a
different SIM card, enter the phone
code when requested.
Barringsb
Barring restricts the use of your
SIM card (not supported by all service providers). You need a 4-digit
password which your service provider will give you. You may need to
be registered separately for each
barring.

Your phone has been designed and
crafted with great care and attention
and should also be treated with care.
The suggestions below will help you
to enjoy your phone for many years.
• Protect your phone from moisture and
humidity! Precipitation, humidity and
liquids contain minerals that will corrode
electronic circuits. Nevertheless, should
your phone become wet, disconnect it
immediately from the power supply and
remove the battery!
• Do not use or store the phone in dusty,
dirty areas. Its moving parts may become
damaged.
• Do not store the phone in hot areas. High
temperatures can shorten the life of
electronic devices, damage batteries and
warp or melt certain plastics.
• Do not store your phone in cold areas.
When the phone warms up again (to its
normal ambient temperature), moisture
can form inside the phone, which may
damage electronic circuit boards.
• Do not drop, knock or shake your phone.
Rough handling can damage internal
circuit boards!
• Do not use abrasive chemicals, cleaning
solvents, or strong detergents to clean the
phone!
The suggestions given above apply
equally to your phone, battery,
charger and all accessories. If any of
these parts are not working properly,
take them to your nearest qualified
service outlet. The personnel there
will assist you and, if necessary,
repair the device.

The U.S. Food and Drug
Administration's (FDA) Center
for Devices and Radiological
Health Consumer Update on
Mobile Phones
FDA has been receiving inquiries
about the safety of mobile phones,
including cellular phones and PCS
phones. The following summarizes
what is know — and what remains
unknown — about whether these
products can pose a hazard to
health, and what can be done to
minimize any potential risk. This information may be used to respond
to questions.
Why the concern?
Mobile phones emit low levels of radio frequency energy (i.e., radio frequency radiation) in the microwave
range while being used. They also
emit very low levels of radio frequency energy (RF), considered non-significant, when in the stand-by mode.
It is well known that high levels of RF
can produce biological damage
through heating effects (this is how
your microwave oven is able to cook
food). However, it is not known
whether, to what extent, or through
what mechanism, lower levels of RF
might cause adverse health effects
as well. Although some research has
97U.S. FDA
been done to address these questions, no clear picture of the biological effects of this type of radiation
has emerged to date. Thus, the available science does not allow us to
conclude that mobile phones are absolutely safe, or that they are unsafe.
However, the available scientific evidence does not demonstrate adverse health effects associated with
the use of mobile phones.
What kinds of phones are in question?
Questions have been raised about
hand-held mobile phones, the kind
that have a built-in antenna that is
positioned close to the user's head
during normal telephone conversation. These types of mobile phones
are of concern because of the short
distance between the phone's antenna — the primary source of the
RF — and the person's head. The exposure to RF from mobile phones in
which the antenna is located at
greater distances from the user (on
the outside of a car, for example) is
drastically lower than that from
hand-held phones, because a person's RF exposure decreases rapidly
with distance from the source. The
safety of so-called “cordless phones,”
which have a base unit connected to
the telephone wiring in a house and
which operate at far lower power
levels and frequencies, has not been
questioned.
Page 99
U.S. FDA98
How much evidence is there that handheld mobile phones might be harmful?
Briefly, there is not enough evidence
to know for sure, either way; however, research efforts are on-going.
The existing scientific evidence is
conflicting and many of the studies
that have been done to date have
suffered from flaws in their research
methods. Animal experiments investigating the effects of RF exposures
characteristic of mobile phones have
yielded conflicting results. A few animal studies, however, have suggested that low levels of RF could accelerate the development of cancer in
laboratory animals. In one study,
mice genetically altered to be predisposed to developing one type of cancer developed more than twice as
many such cancers when they were
exposed to RF energy compared to
controls. There is much uncertainty
among scientists about whether results obtained from animal studies
apply to the use of mobile phones.
First, it is uncertain how to apply the
results obtained in rats and mice to
humans. Second, many of the studies showed increased tumor development used animals that had already been treated with cancercausing chemicals, and other studies
exposed the animals to the RF virtually continuously — up to 22 hours
per day.
For the past five years in the United
States, the mobile phone industry
has supported research into the safe-
ty of mobile phones. This research
has resulted in two findings in particular that merit additional study:
1. In a hospital-based, case-control
study, researchers looked for an association between mobile phone use
and either glioma (a type of brain
cancer) or acoustic neuroma (a benign tumor of the nerve sheath). No
statistically significant association
was found between mobile phone
use and acoustic neuroma. There
was also no association between
mobile phone use and gliomas when
all types of gliomas were considered
together. It should be noted that the
average length of mobile phone exposure in this study was less than
three years.
When 20 types of glioma were considered separately, however, an association was found between mobile
phone use and one rare type of glioma, neuroepithelliomatous tumors.
It is possible with multiple comparisons of the same sample that this association occurred by chance. Moreover, the risk did not increase with
how often the mobile phone was
used, or the length of the calls. In
fact, the risk actually decreased with
cumulative hours of mobile phone
use. Most cancer causing agents increase risk with increased exposure.
An ongoing study of brain cancers by
the National Cancer Institute is expected to bear on the accuracy and
repeatability of these results.

2. Researchers conducted a large
battery of laboratory tests to assess
the effects of exposure to mobile
phone RF on genetic material. These
included tests for several kinds of abnormalities, including mutations,
chromosomal aberrations, DNA
strand breaks, and structural changes in the genetic material of blood
cells called lymphocytes. None of
the tests showed any effect of the RF
except for the micronucleus assay,
which detects structural effects on
the genetic material. The cells in this
assay showed changes after exposure to simulated cell phone radiation, but only after 24 hours of exposure. It is possible that exposing the
test cells to radiation for this long resulted in heating. Since this assay is
known to be sensitive to heating,
heat alone could have caused the abnormalities to occur. The data already in the literature on the response of the micronucleus assay to
RF are conflicting. Thus follow-up research is necessary.

FDA is currently working with
government, industry, and academic
groups to ensure the proper followup to these industry-funded research
findings. Collaboration with the
Cellular Telecommunications
Industry Association (CTIA) in
particular is expected to lead to FDA
providing research
recommendations and scientific
oversight of new CTIA-funded
research based on such
recommendations.
Two other studies of interest have
been reported recently in the literature:
• Two groups of 18 people were exposed to simulated mobile phone
signals under laboratory conditions while they performed cognitive function tests. There were no
changes in the subjects' ability to
recall words, numbers, or pictures, or in their spatial memory,
but they were able to make choices more quickly in one visual test
when they were exposed to simulated mobile phone signals. This
was the only change noted among
more than 20 variables com-

pared.
• In a study of 209 brain tumor cases and 425 matched controls,
there was no increased risk of
brain tumors associated with mobile phone use. When tumors did
exist in certain locations, however, they were more likely to be on
the side of the head where the
mobile phone was used. Because
this occurred in only a small number of cases, the increased likelihood was too small to be
statistically significant.
