QUICK GUIDE FOR TRACK PHONES 2/6
MAINS CHARGER
The mains charger should only be used indoors. Make sure that the
voltage in the country which you are staying corresponds to the volt-
age (110 V) of the charger.
The charger cable can be separate or fixed model. If the device is
supplied with a separate charger cable, connect the round end of the
charger cable into the charger base and lock it by turning it half a
turn clockwise. Plug the cable´s square end/flat end (with the arrow/
button facing up) into the system connector on the phone. Plug the
charger into a mains outlet. Charging will start automatically.
CHARGING
The phone controls the charging status, the battery temperature and
power supply during the charging operation. The ideal temperature
range for charging is +10°...+30°C (approx. +50...+85°F). If charg-
ing the battery above or below these temperatures the life of a bat-
tery may be shortened. Also, the battery may not reach full capacity.
When charging the Li-Ion batteries with the quick charger, about
70% of the battery capacity will be charged quickly, but charging the
remaining 30% takes relatively more time. Also note that humidity,
temperature, age of the battery and currently used features (e.g. the
GPS) affect the time spent on charging.
BATTERY CARE, MAINTENANCE AND DISPOSAL
The continuous operating time is less when using an old battery than
a new battery. When storing batteries for a long time, the batteries
should be kept cool and fully charged in a dry place.
Li-Ion batteries do not contain heavy metals which can damage the
environment. Li-Ion batteries should be disposed of according to the
country-specific regulations.
ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS IN USAGE
SIGHT
The phone must have an unobstructed view to satellites at any time.
In marginal conditions (e.g. when staying in surroundings with
heavy tree cover or in a shadow area in between base stations) an ex-
ternal GPS antenna, possibly even a GSM antenna, must be installed.
The phone can be used like a standard GSM phone. In some cases,
the phone can be built in clothes or special vests. If the phone is
mounted somehow, it must be attached to the surface so that the
back of the phone is facing up or away from body. To ensure proper
functioning of the GPS, the GPS antenna can be covered with plastic,
fiber glass or clothes, but not with metal.
TEMPERATURE RANGES
•Usage: -20 to +55 °C ( -4...+131 °F) with a standard Li-Ion battery
•Charging: Standard Li-Ion battery must not be charged below
0 °C (32 °F). Likewise, charging above +55 °C (131 °F) is prevented.
At temperatures below -25 °C (-13 °F), or above +60 °C (140 °F), the
battery will not supply power and the phone cannot be used. Upon
warming up/cooling down, the phone will function properly again.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
NOTE: The instructions below apply to the phone, its acces-
sories, batteries in use as well as batteries taken out of use.
•Dust and dirt may damage the moving parts of the phone. Do
not use or keep the phone in dusty or dirty surroundings.
•Do not open the phone by yourself or pierce holes in it.
•Rough handling may break the circuitry inside the phone. Do
not drop, knock, twist or shake the phone or its battery.
•Keep the phone dry. Liquids contain minerals which could cor-
rode electronic circuits. If the phone gets wet, turn it off and
dry the phone and the battery immediately. Put the phone into
an upright position and let it dry. It is recommended that a
dealer or service personnel check that the phone functions
properly.
•Even though the phone is splashproof, do not wet the phone
unnecessarily or immerse it in water.
•Protect the phone from heat. High temperatures may shorten
the life of the electronical devices, melt or warp plastics and
damage batteries. Do not warm up the phone or use it near fire.
•Do not short-circuit the battery. Exposing the metal strips of the
battery to a close contact with a metallic object, such as a coin, a
clip or a set of keys can cause accidental short-circuiting and
damage the battery.
•Charge and recharge the battery only with the charger specified
in the Operating instructions/Quick Guide. Use the battery only
for the purpose it is intended.
•Clean the phone with a soft cloth, dampened slightly with mild

SAFETY AND PRECAUTIONS
TELEMATICS PROTOCOL
MPTP (Mobile Phone Telematic Protocol) allows, among other
things, tracking of the phone over the SMS communication.
Automatically sent telematics messages are only allowed to au-
thorised numbers configured in the phone. Such numbers can
be, e.g. emergency and service center numbers.
Position of the phone is retrieved by the GPS, and/or by the net-
work parameters - the latter is a network-dependent service.
The carrier for telematics messages is an SMS-message. Deliver-
ies of all messages is fully handled by and in the responsibility of
the GSM network operator and services can vary substantially.
The charge of a protocol message is determined on the contract
by the service provider.
GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM (GPS)
The GPS is a worldwide system of 24 satellites which orbit the
earth twice a day, transmitting precise time and position infor-
mation. The system is operated by the government of the United
States, which is solely responsible for its accuracy and mainte-
nance. The system is subject to changes that could affect the ac-
curacy and performance of all GPS equipment.
The GPS receiver in your phone receives signals from up to
twelve satellites at once, and using this information calculates
your position and tracks your movement on Earth, and also sets
your phone’s clock on time. Information must be received from
at least three suitably positioned satellites for position calcula-
tion. The signals sent by the GPS satellites are quite weak and do
not travel through solid objects, such as people, buildings,
rocks, or heavy tree cover. This may affect GPS receiver perfor-
mance indoors, in urban areas with tall buildings, or whenever
the GPS antenna doesn’t have an unobstructed view of the sky.
EMERGENCY CALLS AND MESSAGES
The phone is an aid and should never be relied upon as an only
emergency phone. Its functionality is dependent on GSM net-
work and GPS satellites which may not be available all the time.
To make emergency calls, the phone must be turned on and lo-
cated in an area with adequate GSM network signal strength.
Some networks also require that a valid SIM card is inserted in
the phone. Making BeneGuard emergency call, i.e. specific
emergency call to pre-configured numbers, also requires proper
configuration, GPS satellite coverage and a valid SIM-card.
Emergency calls may not be possible on all GSM phone networks
or when certain network services or phone features are in use.
In unclear cases, consult the network operator.
GENERAL NOTES REGARDING SAFETY
•Road traffic and driving: Strictly adhere to all eventual inter-
national and national legislation and also honour other even-
tual safety recommendations when using the phone while
driving a vehicle. It is advisable to install and use a hands-free
operating system in a car for minimizing the distraction from
using the phone. Make sure, the phone is secured in its holder,
do not place the phone on the passenger seat or some other
place where it can break loose in a collision or a sudden stop.
When receiving a call in an awkward driving situation, you must
always put safety before other priorities and courtesy: Pull off
the road and park before making or answering a call if driving
conditions so require. Do not use the phone at all while driving
if it is against national legislation or makes you feel uncomfort-
able.
•Vehicles with air bags: An air bag inflates 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.
•External alert: The use of the alert phone to operate a vehi-
cle´s lights or horn on public roads is not permitted.
•Children: Keep the phone and its accessories away from small
children to avoid causing injury to themselves or others. Dam-
age to the phone or its accessories is also thus avoided.
•Power supply:This equipment is intended for use with the
specified power supplies listed in this Quick Guide. Any other
usage will invalidate any approval given to this apparatus and
may be dangerous.
•Other accessories: Only use approved batteries, antennas
and chargers. The use of any unauthorized accessories, modi-
fications or attachments may be dangerous and voids the
phone warranty if said accessories cause damage or a defect to
the phone. Check the compatibility of new power supply units
and other accessories at the dealer or manufacturer.
•Conductive materials: Make sure, the batteries and spare
batteries are kept away from conductive materials, such as
coins, jewelry, keys, and other metal objects, because a close
contact of these materials and batteries can cause short-cir-
cuit, injury, burns or some other damage. Be especially care-
ful when placing batteries inside your pocket, purse, or other
container with metal objects.
•Power cord: Disconnect the power cord of any accessory by
grasping and pulling the plug, not the cord.
•Connections: All installations, connections and service
regarding the phone, its power supply and accessories should
be approved by the phone manufacturer. Use of any unautho-
rized accessories, modifications or attachments may be dan-
gerous and voids the phone warranty if said accessories cause
damage or a defect to the phone.
•Magnetic fields: The phone contains small magnetic compo-
nents. Even though the magnetic fields of the components are
weak, they might damage magnetic cards, such as bank and
credit cards. We recommend that you would keep the phone
away from magnetic cards.
•Storing positions (and other memory data): Position infor-
mation is stored correctly in the phone when the GPS is
turned off (from the GPS menu) or powered off (by pressing
the topmost side key). To prevent the memory from becoming
corrupted, never power off the phone by removing the battery.
RADIO FREQUENCY (RF) ENERGY
•Normal operation: Hold the phone as you would hold any
other phone, with the antenna pointed up and over your
shoulder. Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when the
phone is in use, because it affects call quality and may cause
the phone to operate at a higher power level than needed.
•Aircrafts: Turn your phone off before boarding any aircraft
and do not use the phone while in the air. Also make sure that
an automatic timer function will not activate the phone during
the flight. Besides being illegal, the use of a mobile phone in
an aircraft may endanger the operation of the aircraft or dis-
rupt the mobile network. Failure to comply with this instruc-
tion may lead to suspension or denial of mobile phone
services, and possibly even legal action.
•Hospitals: Turn your phone off before entering hospitals or
other health care facilities where medical electronic equip-
ment may be in use. Such devices can be extremely sensitive
to radio frequency interference. Only use the phone with per-
mission and under the instruction of hospital staff.
•Medical devices: Remember that any personal medical

QUICK GUIDE FOR TRACK PHONES 6/6
devices (such as hearing aids or pacemakers) may be affected
by RF energy if they are not adequately shielded. Consult the
manufacturer or vendor of the equipment to determine the
proper shielding.
•Persons with pacemakers: Contact your cardiologist and
make sure, the pacemaker you wear is adequately shielded
against RF energy. Always keep the phone more than six inches
(6 ") from the pacemaker when the phone is turned on. Never
carry the phone in a breast pocket. Use the ear opposite the
pacemaker to minimize the potential interference. Turn the
phone off immediately if you have a reason to suspect that
interference is taking place.
•Posted facilities and country-specific regulations: Power
off the phone in any facility where posted notices require to
turn off mobile phones. Also follow all the country-specific
regulations applicable to where the phone is used.
•Potentially explosive atmospheres: Turn off the phone at
refuelling points, e.g. gas stations. Also observe restrictions on
the use of radio equipment in fuel depots, chemical plants or
where blasting operations are in progress because remote
control RF devices can cause an explosion or fire. Do not store
or carry flammable liquids, gases or explosive materials in the
same compartment as the phone, its parts or accessories.
•Vehicle´s own electronical equipment: Using the phone
may cause interference with electronic systems of a vehicle,
e.g. electronic anti-skid braking systems, electronic cruise con-
trol systems, air bags etc. if the equipment is not adequately
shielded. Consult the manufacturer or the vehicle seller to
determine the proper shielding.
•Other electronical equipment: Using the phone near any
electronic devices (such as a car stereo, tv set, an alarm system
and so on) may cause interference if the electronic devices are
not adequately shielded. Consult the manufacturer or the
seller to determine the proper shielding.
•Computers: Remember that using the phone close to a com-
puter may cause interference. When using your phone near
such equipment keep a distance of about one meter.
•Body parts: When the phone is in operation do not touch the
antenna with eyes, mouth or bare skin to guarantee proper
function.
FCC INFORMATION
The phone may cause TV or radio interference if used in close

FCC RADIO FREQUENCY EMISSION
This phone meets the FCC Radio Frequency Emission Guide-
lines. The FCC ID number: QFPTGP79AE. More information on
the phone’s SAR can be found at the following FCC website:
http:/www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid.
SPECIFIC ABSORPTION RATE (SAR)
FOR WIRELESS PHONES
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a
unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or
SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg. This SAR
is value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy ab-
sorbed in the head of a user of a wireless handset.
The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive testing,
measuring and calculation process. Tests for SAR are conducted
using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the
phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all test-
ed frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the high-
est certified 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 antenna, the lower
the power output. While there may be differences between the
SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all
meet the government requirements.
All phones must meet the federal standard, which incorporates
a substantial margin of safety. As stated above, variations in SAR
values between different model phones do not mean variations
in safety.
BODY-WORN OPERATION
For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets
the FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with the Benefon ac-
cessories supplied or designated for this product. Use of other
accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure
guidelines.
SAR compliance for body-worn operating configurations is limit-
ed to the specific belt-clips/holsters/accessories shipped with
this product. SAR compliance is limited to the batteries shipped
with this product.
