SX66 User Manual
15
Tips on efcient operation
• Extend your antenna fully (if applicable).
• Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when the phone is in use. Contact with the antenna
affects call quality and may cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than otherwise
needed.
Driving
Laws pertaining to the use of mobile phones while driving vary signicantly from state to state
and sometimes even from locality to locality within states. For example, some areas may allow
persons to use their mobile phones only if they employ a hands-free device, and some areas may
prohibit the use of cell phones entirely. Accordingly, Siemens recommends that persons check
the laws for the areas in which they drive or will be driving. For areas where the use of mobile
phones while driving is permitted, Siemens encourages persons to use their phones responsibly
and to employ hands-free devices. Also, if using your phone while driving, please:
• Give full attention to driving – driving safely is your rst responsibility;
• Use hands-free operation;
• Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call, if driving conditions so require.
For vehicles equipped with air bags
An air bag inates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including either installed or portable
wireless equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle
wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inates, serious injury could result.
Electronic devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF) signals. However, certain
electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your wireless phone.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers‘ Association recommends that a minimum separation of
6 inches (21 cm) be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid
potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
• should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from their pacemaker when the phone is
turned ON;
Page 15
SX66 User Manual
• should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;
• should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference;
• should turn the phone OFF immediately if there is any reason to suspect that interference is
taking place.
15
Hearing aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your service provider or your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss
alternatives.
Other medical devices
If you use any other personal medical devices, consult the manufacturers of your devices to
determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able
to assist you in obtaining this information.
Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct
you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive
to external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor
vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle. You should
also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
Posted facilities
Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted notices so require.
Airplanes
FCC and Airline Regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Turn your phone OFF
when requested by the airline.
Check and comply with the policy of your airline regarding the use of your phone while the
airplane is on the ground.
Blasting areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone OFF when in a „blasting area“ or
in areas posted: „Turn off two-way radio.“ Obey all signs and instructions.
Page 16
SX66 User Manual16
SX66 User Manual
17
Potentially explosive atmospheres
Turn your phone OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all
signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or re resulting in bodily
injury or even death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always clearly marked. They
include: fueling areas such as gasoline stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer
or storage facilities; vehicles using liqueed petroleum gas (such as propane or butane); areas
where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal powders; and any
other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
Emergency calls (SOS)
Your wireless phone can be used to make emergency calls. You can make an emergency call
from the main display screen. Enter the local emergency number such as 911 and then press
the Call key. This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio signals, wireless and
landline networks, and user-programmed functions. Because of this, connections in all conditions cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, you should never rely solely on any wireless phone for
essential communications (for example, medical emergencies). Remember - to make or receive
any calls, the phone must be switched on and be used in a service area that has adequate signal
strength. Emergency calls might not be possible on all wireless phone networks or when certain
network services or phone features are in use. Check with local service providers regarding
their network features.
Always make certain that your phone is properly charged before attempting any emergency
calls. If you allow your battery to discharge, you will be unable to receive or make calls, including emergency calls. You must then wait a few minutes after the charging begins to place any
emergency calls.
When making an emergency call, remember to give all of the necessary information as accurately
as possible. Remember that your wireless phone might be the only means of communication
at the scene of an accident, therefore you should not terminate the call until given permission
to do so.
Batteries and Chargers
Only use original Siemens batteries (100% mercury-free) and charging devices. Use of nonSiemens batteries and/or charging devices may cause explosion resulting in serious injury
and/or property damage. Use original Siemens accessories in order to avoid possible injury and
property damage and to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Improper use
invalidates the warranty.

Quality
Battery quality statement
The capacity of your cellular phone battery will be reduced every time it is charged/discharged.
Storage at excessively high or low temperatures will also result in a gradual capacity loss. As
a result, the operating time of your cellular phone may be considerably reduced, even after a
full recharge of the battery.
Regardless of this, the battery has been designed and manufactured so that it can be recharged
and used for six months after the purchase of your cell phone. After six months, if the battery is
clearly suffering from loss of performance, we recommend that you replace it. Please buy only
Siemens original batteries.
Display quality statement
For technological reasons, some small dots in other colors may appear in the display in rare
cases. Please remember that if some dots appear brighter or darker in the display, this generally
does not mean that a fault has occurred.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) Center
for Devices and Radiological Health Consumer Update
on Mobile Phones
19
FDA has been receiving inquirie s abo ut the safety of mobile phones , including cellular phones and PCS phones. The following summarizes what is know – and what remains unknown – about whether these products can pose a hazard to health, and what
can be done to minimize any potential risk. This information may be used to respond
to questions.
Why the concern?
Mobile phones emit low levels of radio frequency energy (i.e., radio frequency radiation) in the
microwave range while being used. They also emit very low levels of radio frequency energy (RF),
considered non-signicant, when in the stand-by mode. It is well known that high levels of RF can
produce biological damage through heating effects (this is how your microwave oven is able to
cook food). However, it is not known whether, to what extent, or through what mechanism, lower
levels of RF might cause adverse health effects as well. Although some research has been done
Page 20
SX66 User Manual20
SX66 User Manual
21
to address these questions, no clear picture of the biological effects of this type of radiation has
emerged to date. Thus, the available science does not allow us to conclude that mobile phones
are absolutely safe, or that they are unsafe. However, the available scientic evidence does not
demonstrate adverse health effects associated with the use of mobile phones.
What kinds of phones are in question?
Questions have been raised about hand-held mobile phones, the kind that have a built-in antenna
that is positioned close to the user’s head during normal telephone conversation. These types
of mobile phones are of concern because of the short distance between the phone’s antenna
– the primary source of the RF – and the person’s head. The exposure to RF from mobile phones
in which the antenna is located at greater distances from the user (on the outside of a car, for
example) is drastically lower than that from hand-held phones, because a person’s RF exposure
decreases rapidly with distance from the source. The safety of so-called “cordless phones”, which
have a base unit connected to the telephone wiring in a house and which operate at far lower
power levels and frequencies, has not been questioned.
How much evidence is there that hand-held mobile
phones might be harmful?
Briey, there is not enough evidence to know for sure, either way; however, research efforts are
on-going. The existing scientic evidence is conicting and many of the studies that have been
done to date have suffered from aws in their research methods. Animal experiments investigating
the effects of RF exposures characteristic of mobile phones have yielded conicting results. A
few animal studies, however, have suggested that low levels of RF could accelerate the development of cancer in laboratory animals. In one study, mice genetically altered to be predisposed
to developing one type of cancer developed more than twice as many such cancers when they
were exposed to RF energy compared to controls. There is much uncertainty among scientists
about whether results obtained from animal studies apply to the use of mobile phones. First, it
is uncertain how to apply the results obtained in rats and mice to humans. Second, many of the
studies showed increased tumor development used animals that had already been treated with
cancer-causing chemicals, and other studies exposed the animals to the RF virtually continuously
– up to 22 hours per day.
For the past ve years in the United States, the mobile phone industry has supported research
into the safety of mobile phones. This research has resulted in two ndings in particular that
merit additional study:
1. In a hospital-based, case-control study, researchers looked for an association between mobile
phone use and either glioma (a type of brain cancer) or acoustic neuroma (a benign tumor of
the nerve sheath). No statistically signicant association was found between mobile phone use
and acoustic neuroma. There was also no association between mobile phone use and gliomas
when all types of gliomas were considered together. It should be noted that the average length
of mobile phone exposure in this study was less than three years.
Page 21
SX66 User Manual
When 20 types of glioma were considered separately, however, an association was found between
mobile phone use and one rare type of glioma, neuroepithelliomatous tumors. It is possible with
multiple comparisons of the same sample that this association occurred by chance. Moreover,
the risk did not increase with how often the mobile phone was used, or the length of the calls. In
fact, the risk actually decreased with cumulative hours of mobile phone use. Most cancer causing
agents increase risk with increased exposure. An ongoing study of brain cancers by the National
Cancer Institute is expected to bear on the accuracy and repeatability of these results.
2. Researchers conducted a large battery of laboratory tests to assess the effects of exposure to
mobile phone RF on genetic material. These included tests for several kinds of abnormalities,
including mutations, chromosomal aberrations, DNA strand breaks, and structural changes in
the genetic material of blood cells called lymphocytes. None of the tests showed any effect of the
RF except for the micronucleus assay, which detects structural effects on the genetic material.
The cells in this assay showed changes after exposure to simulated cell phone radiation, but
only after 24 hours of exposure. It is possible that exposing the test cells to radiation for this
long resulted in heating. Since this assay is known to be sensitive to heating, heat alone could
have caused the abnormalities to occur. The data already in the literature on the response of the
micronucleus assay to RF are conicting. Thus follow-up research is necessary.

FDA is currently working with government, industry, and academic groups to ensure the proper
follow-up to these industry-funded research ndings. Collaboration with the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) in particular is expected to lead to FDA providing research recommendations and scientic oversight of new CTIA-funded research based on such
recommendations.
Two other studies of interest have been reported recently in the literature:
• Two groups of 18 people were exposed to simulated mobile phone signals under laboratory
conditions while they performed cognitive function tests. There were no changes in the subjects’
ability to recall words, numbers, or pictures, or in their spatial memory, but they were able to
make choices more quickly in one visual test when they were exposed to simulated mobile phone
signals. This was the only change noted among more than 20 variables compared.
• In a study of 209 brain tumor cases and 425 matched controls, there was no increased risk
of brain tumors associated with mobile phone use. When tumors did exist in certain locations,
however, they were more likely to be on the side of the head where the mobile phone was used.
Because this occurred in only a small number of cases, the increased likelihood was too small
to be statistically signicant.

In summary, we do not have enough information at this point to assure the public that there
are, or are not, any low incident health problems associated with use of mobile phones. FDA
continues to work with all parties, including other federal agencies and industry, to assure that
research is undertaken to provide the necessary answers to the outstanding questions about
the safety of mobile phones.

What is known about cases of human cancer that have
been reported in users of hand-held mobile phones?
Some people who have used mobile phones have been diagnosed with brain cancer. But it is
important to understand that this type of cancer also occurs among people who have not used
mobile phones. In fact, brain cancer occurs in the U.S. population at a rate of about 6 new cases
per 100,000 people each year. At that rate, assuming 80 million users of mobile phones (a number
increasing at a rate of about 1 million per month), about 4800 cases of brain cancer would be
expected each year among those 80 million people, whether or not they used their phones. Thus
it is not possible to tell whether any individual’s cancer arose because of the phone, or whether
it would have happened anyway. A key question is whether the risk of getting a particular form of
cancer is greater among people who use mobile phones than among the rest of the population.
One way to answer that question is to compare the usage of mobile phones among people with
brain cancer with the use of mobile phones among appropriately matched people without brain
cancer. This is called a case-control study. The current case-control study of brain cancers by
the National Cancer Institute, as well as the follow-up research to be sponsored by industry, will
begin to generate this type of information.
What is FDA’s role concerning the safety of mobile phones?
Under the law, FDA does not review the safety of radiation emitting consumer products such as
mobile phones before marketing, as it does with new drugs or medical devices. However, the
agency has authority to take action if mobile phones are shown to emit radiation at a level that
is hazardous to the user. In such a case, FDA could require the manufacturers of mobile phones
to notify users of the health hazard and to repair, replace or recall the phones so that the hazard
no longer exists.
Although the existing scientic data do not justify FDA regulatory actions at this time, FDA has
urged the mobile phone industry to take a number of steps to assure public safety. The agency
has recommended that the industry:
• Support needed research into possible biological effects of RF of the type emitted by mobile
phones;
• Design mobile phones in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to the user that is not necessary
for device function; and
• Cooperate in providing mobile phone users with the best possible information on what is known
about possible effects of mobile phone use on human health.
At the same time, FDA belongs to an interagency working group of the federal agencies that
have responsibility for different aspects of mobile phone safety to ensure a coordinated effort at
the federal level. These agencies are:
• National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health
• Environmental Protection Agency
Page 23
SX66 User Manual
• Federal Communications Commission
• Occupational Health and Safety Administration
• National Telecommunications and Information Administration
The National Institutes of Health also participates in this group.
23
In the absence of conclusive information about any
possible risk, what can concerned individuals do?
If there is a risk from these products – and at this point we do not know that there is – it is probably
very small. But if people are concerned about avoiding even potential risks, there are simple steps
they can take to do so. For example, time is a key factor in how much exposure a person receives.
Those persons who spend long periods of time on their hand-held mobile phones could consider
holding lengthy conversations on conventional phones and reserving the hand-held models for
shorter conversations or for situations when other types of phones are not available.
People who must conduct extended conversations in their cars every day could switch to a type
of mobile phone that places more distance between their bodies and the source of the RF, since
the exposure level drops off dramatically with distance. For example, they could switch to:
• a mobile phone in which the antenna is located outside the vehicle,
• a hand-held phone with a built-in antenna connected to a different antenna mounted on the
outside of the car or built into a separate package, or
• a headset with a remote antenna to a mobile phone carried at the waist.

Ten Driving Safety Tips
Your Siemens wireless phone gives you the power to communicate by voice – almost anywhere,
anytime. But an important responsibility accompanies the benets of wireless phones, one that
every user must uphold. When driving a car, driving is your rst responsibility. When using your
wireless phone behind the wheel of a car, practice good common sense and remember the
following tips:
Get to know your phone and its features such as speed dial and
redial
Carefully read your instruction manual and learn to take advantage of valuable features most
phones offer including, automatic redial and memory dial – most phones can store up to 99
numbers in memory dial. Also, work to memorize the phone keypad so you can use the speed
dial function without taking your attention off the road.
When available, use a hands-free device
A number of hands-free wireless phone accessories are readily available today. Whether you
choose an installed mounted device for your phone or a speaker phone accessory, take advantage
of these devices if they are available to you.
Position your phone within easy reach
Make sure you place your wireless phone within easy reach and where you can grab it without
Page 25
SX66 User Manual
removing your eyes from the road. If you get an incoming call at an inconvenient time, let your
voicemail answer it for you.
25
Suspend conversations during hazardous driving conditions or
situations
Let the person you are speaking to know you are driving; if necessary, suspend the call in heavy
trafc or hazardous weather conditions. Rain, sleet, snow and ice can be hazardous, but so is
heavy trafc. As a driver, your rst responsibility is to pay attention to the road.
Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving
If you are reading an address book or business card while driving a car, or writing a “to do”
list, then you are not watching where you are going. It’s common sense. Don’t get caught in a
dangerous situation because you are reading or writing and not paying attention to the road or
nearby vehicles.
Dial sensibly and assess the trafc
If possible, place calls when you are not moving or before pulling into trafc. Try to plan your calls
before you begin your trip, or attempt to coincide your calls with times you may be stopped at a
stop sign, red light or otherwise stationary. But if you need to dial while driving, follow this simple
tip – dial only a few numbers, check the road and your mirrors, then continue.
Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may be
distracting
Stressful or emotional conversations and driving do not mix – they are distracting and even
dangerous when you are behind the wheel. Make people you are talking with aware you are
driving and if necessary, suspend phone conversations that have the potential to divert your
attention from the road.
Use your phone to call for help
Your wireless phone is one of the greatest tools you can own to protect yourself and your family
in dangerous situations – with your phone at your side, help is only three numbers away. Dial
9-1-1 in the case of re, trafc accident, road hazard, or medical emergency. Remember, it is a
free call on your wireless phone.
Page 26
SX66 User Manual26
SX66 User Manual
27
Use your phone to help others in emergencies
Your wireless phone provides you a perfect opportunity to be a “good Samaritan” in your community. If you see an auto accident, crime in progress or other serious emergencies where lives
are in danger, call 9-1-1, as you would want others to do for you.
Call roadside assistance or a special wireless non-emergency assistance
number when necessary
Certain situations you encounter while driving may require attention, but are not urgent enough
to merit a call to 9-1-1. But you can still use your wireless phone to lend a hand. If you see a
broken-down vehicle posing no serious hazard, a broken trafc signal, a minor trafc accident
where no one appears injured, or a vehicle you know to be stolen, call roadside assistance or
other special non-emergency wireless numbers.
“The wireless industry reminds you to use your phone safely when driving.”

SAR (SX66)
RF EXPOSURE/SPECIFIC ABSORPTION RATE (SAR) INFORMATION
THIS SIEMENS SX66 PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS.
Your cell phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed
the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy established by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government and by Health Canada. These limits
are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general
population. The guidelines were developed and conrmed by independent scientic organizations
through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientic studies*. The limits include a substantial
safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
27
The exposure standard for cell phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specic
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit established by the FCC and by Health Canada is 1.6
W/kg**. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC
and by Industry Canada with the phone transmitting at its highest certied power level in all
tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certied power level,
the actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is
because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power
required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station, the lower
the power output.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and the manufacturer
must certify to the FCC and Industry Canada that it does not exceed the limit established by each
government for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the
ear and worn on the body), reported to the FCC and available for review by Industry Canada.
The highest SAR value for this Siemens SX66 when tested for use at the ear is 0.4 mW/g*** and
when worn on the body+ is 0.548 mW/g***

higher by tapping
level.
4. Write the letters of a word closely and leave big gaps
between words so that the device can easily tell where

characters such as accents, and some punctuation
cannot be converted.
If you edit or add to a word after attempting to recognize it,
the new writing will not be included if you attempt to recognize it again.

2.4 Drawing on the Screen
You can draw on the screen in the same way that you write
