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.
The SIM card may be removed. Caution! Small parts like this could be swallowed by young 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. 68), info tones (p. 70) 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. 20). 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 tore place the battery (100 % mercury-free) 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!
The phone may only be used if the keypad is fully closed or fully opened; for optimum audio quality, however, it is recommended you open the keypad completely.

(Change phone code) You define the phone code
(4–8 digits) when you call up a phone-code protected function for the first time (e.g. Babysitter p. 23). It is then valid for all phone-code protected functions. Following the third unsuccessful at­tempt, access to the phone code and the functions that use it is denied. If this happens please contact Siemens Service (p. 121).
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, according to instructions. If the PUK (MASTER PIN) has been lost, please contact your service provider.
