Safety precautions2
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 ringtone (p. 42), info tones
(p. 44) 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. 18).
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.
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 mains voltage specified on
the power supply unit (V) must
not be exceeded. Otherwise
the charging device may be
destroyed.
You may only open the phone
to replace 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.
Do not use an optical magnifier
to look at the activated
infrared interface [Class 1 LED
product (classification as per
IEC 60825-1)].
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.

Getting started8
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.
Your phone's
display is delivered with a protective film. Remove this film
before getting
started.
• Press the latch
ously push the cover towards the
front the direction indicated by

• To remove, press the retaining tab
on the side of the battery, then lift

• Place the cover in position and
push it towards the front until it
latches into place.
Additional information
Please switch off your phone before
removing the battery!
Only 3 V SIM cards are supported.
9Getting started
Charging the battery
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 mains power socket and charge for at least
two hours.
Y
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 270 minutes
Stand-by time: 60 to 290 hours.
Display during charging.
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 unnecessari-
ly 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.

number of times it can be used etc.
By pressing and holding,
you can return to standby

(Change phone code)
You define the phone code (4–8 dig-
its) when you call up a phone-code
protected function for the first time
(e.g. Direct call, p. 47). 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 occurs, contact the Siemens
Service (p. 56).
Clearing 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 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 (p. 14)
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 when you are
travelling in an aircraft.
