Phone Information

Operators and Subscription

To be able to use your phone, you need to have a subscription to a network. This is obtained from the network operator.

services browser and

The services included in your subscription depend on your choice of operator and/ or subscription. Therefore, some of the services and functions described in this manual may not be accessible to you. If you want a complete list of the services included in your subscription, please contact your network operator.

General Information 5

GSM 900/1900 Dual Band

The Ericsson R380 is a dual band phone, which means that you can use your phone in two different kinds of networks - the GSM 900 and GSM 1900 systems.

The GSM 1900 system is used primarily in the US and other parts of the Americas, and the GSM 900 system is used primarily in Europe, the Asia/Pacific region and in some parts of Africa. This means that you can used your R380 on six continents.

Switching between the two systems is done automatically, which means that you can use your phone without ever having to consider which system is being used. This is taken care of by the networks. However, you should note that the functions offered and the network coverage differ depending on your choice of operator and/or subscription.

SIM and PIN

You will obtain a SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card with your subscription. The SIM card contains a computer chip that keeps track of your phone number, the services you have ordered from your network operator and your Phone Book information, among other things.

Your SIM card is supplied with a security code or PIN (Personal Identity Number), which you need in order to gain access to the network. Your PIN may also be required when you want to change settings in your ph one. Furthermore, some operators may have services that require a second PIN, your PIN2. You will find your PIN (and PIN2) in the information from your operator.

If you have set certain security options in your phone, when you turn on your phone, it prompts you to enter your PIN. If the PIN is entered incorrectly three times in a row, the SIM card will be blocked. If this happens you can unlock it by using your PUK (Personal Un-blocking Key code), which you also get from your operator. You should be careful with your PIN, since it is your protection against unauthorized use of your phone and subscription.

6 General Information

Unlike other mobile phones, the R380 has added features available with the flip open. Tasks that you can perform with the phone can be started with the flip closed and, if required, continued in the more comprehensive flip open mode.

Although the manual covers both modes of operation in detail, it is very important to remember that many functions described are dependent on your subscription as well as your operator and internet service provider. Please consult your network operator and internet service provider for more information about the services that are available to you.

Flip open and flip closed modes are illustrated in the following diagrams:

SIM C ard

When you become a subscriber to a mobile network operator, you are issued a SIM card with a security code or PIN, Personal Identification Number. The SIM card contains your personal subscriber data and must be inserted into your R380. The holder for the SIM card is located underneath the battery.

Warning!

your phone before inserting and removing your SIM card.

To insert the SIM card:

Ensure that your R380 is turned off and the flip is closed.

Remove the battery.

10 Preparing for Use

Always disconnect the charger and other accessories from

Slide the SIM card into the SIM card holder.

Replace the battery.

Note:

If you already have a SIM card that contains phone book entries then this information can be imported to your R380. See “SIM Card Phone Book Import” on page 20.

To remove the SIM card:

Ensure that the R380 is turned off and the flip is closed.

Remove the battery.

Slide the SIM card out of the SIM card holder.

Battery

The battery that comes with your R380 is a lithium ion (Li-Ion) battery. The battery is not fully charged when you buy your phone but there may be enough power to turn it on. We recommend that you charge the battery for four hours before you use the R380 for the first time.

The first time you charge a new battery, or a battery that has been completely discharged, it may take a few minutes before you get any indication that the battery is being charged (the Status indicator does not light up and the battery meter does not display).

Note:

You cannot turn on the R380 before the Status indicator

lights up and the battery meter displays.

A battery that has not been used for a long period needs to be completely discharged and then recharged 2-3 times before reaching full capacity. Should you need to discharge the battery, simply use your R380 as usual until the battery runs low.

Preparing for Use 11

When to Charge the Battery

Charging is indicated by:

• Battery meter on the display pulses continuously.

• Battery low message displays.

• Status indicator on top of the R380 shows a steady red light

(or green, if the R380 is switched on).

The battery can also be charged whenever you wish without affecting the R380’s performance.

Normal operation is possible during charging. However, this

Tip!

lengthens the charging time.

Note:

The R380 automatically switches off if the voltage is too

low.

Charging

Charge the battery by using the charger supplied with your R380. You can use some battery chargers that have been supplied with other Ericsson mobile phones using the same connector plug, for example the T28 or the R320s.

Note:

For optimal talk and standy time, we recommend that you only use Ericsson original batteries with your R380. Non-Ericsson batteries charge slowly for safety reasons.

When the battery is fully charged, the battery meter displays full and the Status indicator on top of the R380 shows a steady green light.

For best performance we recommend charging for an extra half an hour after the battery meter on the display is shown as full.

Note:

Always close the flip and turn off your R380 before removing the battery.

Warning!

Do not keep a battery in a sunny or warm place. Extremely high temperatures reduce the capacity of the battery permanently. Avoid recharging a full or almost full battery.

12 Preparing for Use

Battery Removal and Insertion

To remove the battery:

Ensure that the flip is closed and the R380 is off.

Push up the release catch at the top of the battery and lift

the battery away from your R380.
