Safety precautions

All radio transmitters are subject to restrictions such as:

Switch off in hospitals or in the vicinity of medical devices, e.g. pacemakers or hearing aids. Mobile phones can interfere with the function of these devices.

Always use the handsfree kit for calls while driving (p. 92)!

Mobile phones must be switched off at all times in an aircraft. Prevent accidental activation (p. 63).

Switch off near petrol stations, fuel depots, chemical plants or blasting operations. Mobile phones can interfere with the operation of technical installations.

Do not examine the active infrared interface [Class 1 LED product (classified according to IEC 60825-1)] using optic magnification devices.

The ring tone is reproduced through the earpiece. To avoid damage to hearing, first accept the call, then hold the phone to the ear.

SIM card may be removed. Caution: small parts could be swallowed by children.

The mains voltage specified on the power supply unit must not be exceeded.

We recommend you use only original Siemens batteries (100% mercury-free) and charging devices. Otherwise considerable health risks and damage to the product cannot be excluded.

Neither the phone nor the battery (100% mercury-free) may be opened under any circumstances. Changes to this device are strictly prohibited, as they will invalidate the type approval criteria required for operation of the unit.

Please note:

Improper use invalidates the warranty!

Dispose of used batteries and phones according to the legal regulations.

Mobile phones can interfere with the operation of nearby TVs, radios, PCs.

We recommend you use only original Siemens accessories to avoid possible damage and to comply with the existing regulations.

Getting Started

Charge battery

The battery is not fully charged when delivered, so:

• Plug in charger cable at the bottom of the phone and plug in the power supply unit to the mains power socket (only use the charger supplied; charge for at least two hours).

If the battery is totally discharged, no charge icon is displayed at the beginning of the charging process.

If this is the case, leave the charger cable plugged in. The charge icon will appear after a maximum of 2 hours. The battery is then automatically charged.

• Push the sides of the charger cable plug together and pull to remove it.
