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.

3Safety precautions

Remember to comply with legal requirements and local restrictions when using the phone. For example in airplanes, gas stations, hospitals or while driving.

Cell phones can interfere with the functioning of medical devices such as hearing aids or pacemakers. Keep the phone at least 20 cm (8 inches) away from pacemakers. When using the cell phone, hold it to the ear farther away from the pacemaker. For more information, consult your doctor.

The ringtones, message 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. Otherwise you risk serious permanent damage to your hearing.

Do not place the phone close to electromagnetic data carriers such as credit cards or floppy disks. The information stored on them could be lost.

Use only original Siemens batteries (100 % mercury-free) and charging devices. Otherwise you risk serious damage to health and property. The battery could explode, for instance.

Do not use an optical magnifier to look at the activated infrared interface [Class 1 LED product (classification as per IEC 60825-1)].

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 line 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 wall outlet when charging the battery. The only way to turn off the charging device after charging the battery is to unplug it.

Safety precautions4

You may only open the phone to replace the battery (100% mercury-free) or SIM card. Do not open the battery under any circumstances. All other changes to this device are strictly prohibited and will invalidate the guarantee.

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 warranty! These safety instructions also apply to Siemens original accessories.

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, during 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.

Additional information

Please switch off your phone before removing the battery!

1.8-V and 3-V SIM cards are supported. Please contact your service provider if you have an older card.

Getting started10

Charging the battery

The battery is not fully charged when delivered. Plug charger cable into the bottom of the phone, plug power supply unit into a wall outlet and charge for at least two hours.

As an alternative, the battery can be charged via the USB port (see Accessories, page 127).

Charging time

A discharged battery is fully charged after about 2 hours. Charging is only possible within a temperature range of +5 °C to 45 °C (41 °F to 113 °F). If the temperature rises/falls 5 °C (9°F) above/below this range, the charge symbol flashes a warning. The line voltage specified on the power supply unit must not be exceeded.

Operating time

The operating time depends on the conditions of use. Extreme temperatures considerably reduce the phone’s standby time. Avoid leaving the phone in the sun or on a heater.

Display during charging.

Call time: 100 to 330 minutes Standby time: 60 to 300 hours

Charge icon not visible

If the battery is fully discharged, 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 the delivery!

Display while in service

nearly flat. The charge level of the battery is only displayed correctly after an uninterrupted charging/discharging cycle. You should therefore not remove the battery unnecessarily and where possible not finish the

charging process prematurely.

Additional information

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.

You define the phone code (4–8 digits) when you call up a phone-code protected feature for the first time (e.g. Direct call, page 26). It is then valid for all phone-code protected features. Following the third unsuccessful attempt, access to the phone code and the features that use it is denied. Contact Siemens Service (page 122).

Clearing SIM card blocking

If the PIN is entered incorrectly three times, the SIM card is blocked. Enter the PUK (MASTER PIN) provided by your service provider with the SIM card in accordance with the instructions. If the PUK (MASTER PIN) has been lost, please contact your service provider.

Preventing accidental activation

Even if PIN use is deactivated (page 16) 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 traveling in an aircraft.
