Safety precautions

Safety precautions
Information for parents
Please read the operating instructions and safety precautions carefully before use. Explain the content to your children and the hazards associated with using the phone.
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 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.
Do not use an optical magnifier to look at the activated infrared inter­face [Class 1 LED product (classifi­cation as per IEC 60825-1)].
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.
Ringtones (p. 25), info tones (p. 26) and handsfree (p. 14) talking are re­produced through the loudspeaker. Do not hold the phone to the ear when it rings or when you have switched on the handsfree function. 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) 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 place the phone near to elec­tromagnetic data carriers such as credit cards and floppy disks. Infor­mation stored on them could be lost.
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! These safety instructions also apply to Siemens original accessories.
Distance required for body worn at data transfer (GPRS) only
As mobile devices offer a range of functions, they can be used in positions other than the head, such as on the body. In this case, at data transfer (GPRS) a separation distance of 1.5 cm is re­quired.

Getting started

Inserting the SIM card/battery

The service provider supplies you with a SIM card on which all the important data for your line is stored. If the SIM card has been delivered in credit-card size, snap the smaller segment out and remove any rough edges.

Charging time
An empty battery is fully charged after about 2 hours. Charging is only possible within a temperature range of +5 °C to 45 °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
The operating time depends upon the re­spective conditions of use. Extreme tem­peratures considerably reduce the phone’s standby time. Avoid placing the phone in the sun or on a heater.
Call time: 100 to 330 minutes Stand-by time: 60 to 275 hours
Charge icon not visible
If the battery has been discharged fully, the charge icon is not immediately visible when the power supply is plugged in. It will appear after up to two hours. In this case the battery is fully charged after 3 to 4 hours.
Only use the plug-in power supply included in delivery!
Display while in service
Charge level display during operation (empty–full): V W X
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 finish the charging process prematurely.
The power supply unit heats up when used for long periods. This is normal and not dangerous.
If the battery is removed for longer than 30 seconds, the clock must be reset.
