IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The wireless phone described in this guide is
approved for use on GSM 900/1800/1900
networks for models purchased in Europe and
Asia, and GSM 850/1800/1900 networks for
models purchased in the USA. Contact your
service provider for more information about
networks.
When using your Vertu phone, obey all laws and
respect the privacy and legitimate rights of others.
Warning. All of your Vertu phone’s features, other
than the alarm clock, require the phone to be
switched on to use the features. Do not switch
your Vertu phone on when wireless phone use
may cause interference or danger.
NETWORK SERVICES
To use the phone you must have service from a
wireless service provider. Many of the features in
your Vertu phone depend on features in the
wireless network to function. These network
services may not be available on all networks or
you may have to make specific arrangements with
your service provider before you can utilise
network services. Your service provider may need
to give you additional instructions for their use and
explain what charges will apply. Some networks
may have limitations that affect how you can use
network services. For instance, some networks
may not support all language-dependent
characters and services.
Your service provider may also have requested that
certain features be disabled or not activated in your
Vertu phone. If so, they will not appear on your
menus. Contact your service provider for more
information.
SAFETY POINTS
Caution. Do not switch on the phone when
wireless phone use is prohibited or when it may
cause interference or danger. Please read these
simple guidelines. Disregarding these rules may
be dangerous or illegal.
Your Vertu phone has an internal antenna. As with
any other radio transmitting device, do not touch
the antenna unnecessarily when the phone is
switched on.
Contact with the antenna affects call quality and
may cause the phone to operate at a higher power
level than otherwise needed. Avoiding contact with
the antenna during a call optimises the antenna
performance and the talk time of your Vertu phone.
Your Vertu phone and its accessories may contain
small parts. Keep them out of reach of small
children.
SHARED MEMORY
Some of the data features in your Vertu phone
share memory. Using one or more of these features
may reduce the memory available for the remaining
features sharing memory. For example, saving
many multimedia messages and voice recordings
may use all of the available memory. Your phone
may display a message that the memory is full
when you try to use a shared memory feature. In
this case, delete some of the information or entries
stored in the shared memory features before
continuing. Some of the features, such as the
contacts list, have a certain amount of memory
specially allotted to them in addition to the amount
of memory shared with other features.
v
ROAD SAFETY COMES FIRST
Obey all local laws. Always keep your hands
free to operate the vehicle while driving. Your
first consideration while driving should be road
safety.

THE BATTERY AND SIM CARD
If your Vertu phone was purchased at a Vertu store,
the battery and SIM card should have been
installed already. Otherwise, follow the procedure
below to install your SIM card and battery.
The SIM card and its contacts are easily damaged.
Be careful when handling, inserting or removing
the card.
Caution. Keep SIM cards and the back cover

Always switch the phone off and disconnect the
charger before removing the battery.

02
04
> Remove the plastic placeholder (04) from your
Vertu phone before inserting the battery.
Retain the plastic placeholder for future use. If
you need to remove the battery, insert the
plastic placeholder before replacing the back
cover to make it easier to remove the back
cover
> With the back of your Vertu phone facing you,
position the back cover release key (01) very
carefully into the slot of the locking screw (02).
Ensure the key does not slip out of the slot.
03
> Turn the locking screw (02) a quarter of a turn
anticlockwise, gently pivot (by no more than 45
degrees) and lift off the back cover (03) towards
you as shown. If you accidentally remove the back
cover while the phone is switched on, the phone
will automatically switch off.
Attach the back cover release key to your
keyring for convenience.
05
06
> Slide the SIM retainer (05) towards the bottom of
your Vertu phone and then pivot outwards.
> Insert the SIM card into the retainer, ensuring that
the bevelled corner (06) is located bottom left and
the gold contact area is facing towards the gold
contact points inside the phone.
> Return the retainer to its original position and slide
it towards the top of the phone. The retainer
should firmly lock into place.
For availability and information on using SIM
card services, contact your SIM card vendor.
This may be the service provider, network
operator, or other vendor.

VERTU PHONE KEYPAD
08
07
> Insert the battery (07) top end first. Ensure that the
contacts on the top end of the battery align with
the contact points (08) inside the battery
compartment.
Alphanumeric keys, referred to as NUMBER keys in
this guide, are used to key in numbers or
characters, for example when making calls, storing
names in the directory or writing text messages.
Below the display are two SELECTION keys. The
function of these keys depends on the text
displayed above them.
> Ensure that the battery and SIM card are seated
correctly before replacing the back cover.
> Pivot and slide the back cover into position until it
clicks into place. The cover should close tightly
using only light pressure – do not force it closed! If
the cover does not close easily, remove it and
check the battery and SIM are correctly inserted,
and the retainer (09) is correctly positioned and
locked.

may cause the phone to operate at a higher power
level than otherwise needed. Avoiding contact with
the antenna area when operating the phone
optimises the antenna performance and battery
life.
ENTERING YOUR PIN CODE
Depending on your SIM card settings, you may be
prompted to enter a PIN (Personal Identification
Number) code when you switch on your Vertu
phone. This code is used to protect access to your
SIM card and is independent of your Vertu phone.
If you used your SIM card in another phone
previously, the code will be the same.
> Use the NUMBER keys
to key in your PIN code.
> Press OK.
It is recommended that you activate both the
PIN code and security code to help prevent
unauthorised use of your SIM card and your
Vertu phone. Refer to the "Chapter Security"
chapter for more information.
SETTING THE TIME AND DATE
If the time and date are not set, you will be
prompted to enter your time settings when you first
switch on your Vertu phone.
If your Vertu phone was purchased at a Vertu store,
the time and date should already be set for you.

For example, to set the time to 08:30:
> Key in “8”.
> Scroll to minutes. The leading zero is added to the
hour figure.
> Key in “30”.
> Press OK.
Or, to set the time to 12:30:
> Key in “12”. The cursor automatically jumps to the
minutes.
> Key in “30”.
> Press OK.
If the hour you entered was not in 24-hour format,
you are prompted to confirm if the time entered is
am or pm:
> Scroll to am or pm.
> Press Select. The
time zone screen is
displayed.
To select your local time zone:
> Scroll to the
appropriate time
zone.
> Press Select. The
date screen is
displayed.

keys to key in
the date.
> Use the SCROLL keys

EMERGENCY CALLS
IMPORTANT! Your Vertu phone, like any wireless
phone, operates using radio signals, wireless and
landline networks as well as user-programmed
functions. Because of this, connections in all
conditions cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, you
should never rely solely upon any wireless phone
for essential communications, for example medical
emergencies.
Emergency calls may not be possible on all
wireless phone networks or when certain network
services and/or phone features are in use. Check
with local service providers.
MAKING AN EMERGENCY CALL

> Press the SEND key.
If certain features are in use, you may first need to
turn those features off before you can make an
emergency call. For more information consult your
local service provider.
When making an emergency call, remember to
give all the necessary information as accurately as
possible.
Remember that your phone may be the only means
of communication at the scene of an accident – do
not cut off the call until given permission to do so.

02 SECURITY
The security features on your Vertu phone help
prevent unauthorised use of your phone and SIM
card.
SECURITY FEATURES
You can activate and change some security
features yourself – these are “User codes”. A user
code is a pre-defined number you have to key in at
specified times, for example after switching on your
Vertu phone.
Other security features require the assistance of
your service provider to be activated – these are
“Network services”. Network service security
features allow you to restrict certain actions that
you have specified, for example international calls.
We recommend you activate both the security
code and PIN code to help prevent the
following:
> Unauthorised use of your Vertu phone
when your SIM card is inserted.
> Unauthorised use of your Vertu phone if a
different SIM card is inserted.
> Unauthorised use of your SIM card in
another phone.
PIN CODE REQUEST
The PIN (Personal Identification Number) code is a
user code that helps protect your SIM card against
unauthorised use. When the PIN code function is
active, you need to key in the PIN code each time
you switch on your Vertu phone. The PIN code is
supplied with your SIM card or is available from
your service provider. If you used your SIM card in
another phone previously, the code will be the
same.
The default setting for the PIN code function is
defined by your service provider. Some service
providers do not allow you to disable the PIN code
request.
The SIM card becomes blocked if you key in
an incorrect PIN code three times in
succession.
Key in the PUK code if you have blocked your
SIM card.
PUK codes cannot be changed. If you key in
an incorrect PUK code 10 times in succession
your SIM card becomes permanently blocked.
To obtain a PUK code contact your service
provider.
To change the PIN code request setting:
> From the stand-by display, press Menu.
> Scroll to Settings and press Select.
> Scroll to Security settings and press Select.
> PIN code request is shown, press Select to
change the setting.
> Key in your PIN code and press OK.
> Scroll to On to enable the PIN code request or
Off to disable it, then press Select. A
confirmation message is displayed.
