ii Emergency Services and Safety Precautions
Road Safety
•You MUST exercise proper control of your vehicle at all times. Give full attention to driving.
•Observe all the recommendations contained in your local traffic safety documentation.
•Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require.
•You MUST NOT stop on the hard shoulder of a motorway to answer or make a call, except in
an emergency.
•Switch off your phone at a refuelling point, such as a petrol station, even if you are not refuelling
your own car.
•Do not store or carry flammable or explosive materials in the same compartment where a radio
transmitter, such as a cellphone, is placed.
•Electronic vehicle systems, such as anti-lock brakes, speed control and fuel injection systems
are not normally affected by radio transmissions. The manufacturer of such equipment can
advise if it is adequately shielded from radio transmissions. If you suspect vehicle problems
caused by radio transmissions, consult your dealer and do not switch on your phone until it has
been checked by qualified approved installers.
Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag
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. If in-vehicle
wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.
Third Party Equipment
The use of third party equipment, cables or accessories, not made or authorized by NEC, may
invalidate the warranty of your cellphone and also adversely affect the phone’s operation. For
example use only the NEC mains cable supplied with the AC charger.
Service
The cellphone, batteries and charger contain no user-serviceable parts. We recommend that your
NEC cellphone is serviced or repaired by an NEC authorized service centre. Please contact your
Service Provider or NEC for advice.
Non-Ionizing Radiations
The radio equipment shall be connected to the antenna via a non-radiating cable (e.g. coax).
The antenna shall be mounted in a position such that no part of the human body will normally rest
close to any part of the antenna unless there is an intervening metallic screen, for example, the
metallic roof.
Use only an antenna that has been specifically designed for your phone. Use of unauthorized
antennas, modifications or attachments could damage your phone and may violate the
appropriate regulations, causing loss of performance and radio frequency (RF) energy above the
recommended limits.
Efficient Use
For optimum performance with minimum power consumption, note the following:
•Your phone has the internal antenna. Do not cover part of the internal antenna of the phone
with your hands. This affects call quality, may cause the phone to operate at a higher power
level than needed and may shorten talk and standby times.
Radio Frequency Energy
Your phone is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is turned on, it intermittently
receives and transmits radio frequency (RF) energy (radio waves). The system that handles the
call controls the power level at which the phone transmits.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy
Your phone is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to RF energy set by national
authorities and international health agencies. * These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines
and establish permitted levels of radio wave exposure for the general population. The guidelines
were developed by independent scientific organizations such as ICNIRP (International
Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection) through periodic and thorough evaluation of
scientific studies. The limits include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of
all persons, regardless of age and health, and to account for any variations in measurements.
*Examples of radio frequency exposure guidelines and standards that your phone is designed to
conform to:
•ICNIRP, “Guidelines for limiting exposure to time-varying electric, magnetic, and
electromagnetic fields (up to 300 G Hz)-International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection (ICNIRP)”.
Health Physics, vol. 74. pp, 494-522, April 1998.
•99/519/EC Council Recommendation on the limitation of exposure to the general public to
electromagnetic fields 0 Hz-300 GHz, Official Journal of the European Communities, July 12,
1999.
•ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992. “Safety levels with respect to human exposure to radio frequency
electromagnetic fields, 3kHz to 300 GHz”. The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
Inc., New York, 1991.
•FCC Report and Order, ET Docket 93-62, FCC 96-326, Federal Communications Commission
(FCC), August 1996.

Radio Frequency (RF) Signals (900/1800MHz)
THIS NEC PHONE (MODEL KMP6J1BK1-4E) COMPLIES WITH THE USA REQUIREMENTS
FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your mobile phone is a radio transceiver, designed and manufactured not to exceed the SAR*
limits** for exposure to radio-frequency (RF) energy, which SAR* value, when tested for
compliance against the standard was 1.39 W/kg. While there may be differences between the
SAR* levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet*** the USA requirements
for RF exposure.
* The exposure standard for mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR.
** The SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over
one gram of tissue. The limit incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional
protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements.
*** Tests for SAR have been conducted using standard operating positions with the phone
transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is

iii
Emergency Services and Safety Precautions
determined at the highest 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 base station antenna, the lower the power output.
************************************************************************************************************
Radio Frequency (RF) Signals (1900MHz)
THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO
RADIO WAVES.
Your wireless phone contains a radio transmitter and receiver. Your NEC phone is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set
by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. These limits are part of
comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population.
The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific
organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.* 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 tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined
at the highest 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 output.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC
that it does not exceed the limit established by the government-adopted requirement for safe
exposure. The tests are performed on position and locations (for example, at the ear and worn
on the body) as required by FCC for each model. The highest SAR value for this model phone as
reported to the FCC when tested for use at the ear is 1.04W/kg, and when worn on the body, is
0.43 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available
accessories and FCC requirements). While there may be differences between the SAR levels of
various phones and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement.
* In the United States, the SAR limit for wireless mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/
kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue.
SAR values may vary depending upon national reporting requirements and the network band.
Body-worn Operation
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR
levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this
model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section at http://
www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after search on FCC ID A98-KMP6J1BK1.
For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines
when used with a NEC accessory designated for this product or when used with an accessory
that contains no metal and that positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body.

Getting Started
Getting Started
Preparing the phone
Before trying to use your phone, make sure that a valid Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card is inserted and the battery is charged.
SIM card
Before using your phone, you must sign-up with one of the digital network service providers. In addition to your subscription details you will receive a personal SIM
(Subscriber Identity Module) card which is inserted into your phone.
If the SIM card is removed, the phone becomes unusable until a valid SIM card is fitted. It is possible to transfer your SIM card to another compatible phone and resume
your network subscription. The screen on your phone will display appropriate messages if no SIM card is fitted.
,If the phone, or the SIM card, is lost or stolen then you should contact your service provider immediately in order to bar it from use.
2The phone supports a number of languages and the keyboard symbols have been chosen for world-wide operation.
2The digital technology of your phone helps to ensure that your conversations are kept secure.
2The SIM card contains personal data such as your electronic phonebook, messages (see “Message (M2)” on page 31) and also details of the network services you
have subscribed to. The phone will not work (except for emergency calls on some networks) unless a valid SIM card is fitted.
,Be sure to turn the phone off before inserting and removing a SIM card. Otherwise damage to the SIM card can occur.
,If you remove the SIM card while the phone is turned on, the phone will restart itself.
Inserting a SIM card
,Be sure to turn the phone off before inserting a SIM card.
☛
Pick up the bump and lift the SIM card compartment cover gently in the direction of the arrow (STEP 1).
,Be careful not to pull out the cover too much. This may cause the SIM card compartment cover to break apart.
,Make sure to handle the black rubber part that connects the phone and the SIM card compartment cover
gently.
☛Insert the SIM card into the narrow slot in the SIM card compartment in the direction of the arrow (STEP 2) until it
is locked in place (STEP 3). Make sure the metal part of the SIM card is facing front when viewed from the keypad
(see the figure on the right).
,Be careful not to damage electric parts of the SIM card compartment when inserting a SIM card.
,If the SIM card is not fully inserted, damage to the SIM card can occur.
☛Slide the cover in the direction of the arrows (STEP 4) until the two tabs fit properly inside the cover (STEP 5).
☛Close the cover in the direction of the arrows until the four tabs are locked in the cavities and click (STEP 5 and STEP 6).
2If the SIM card is already fitted, see “Start-up” on page 5.

Charging the battery
Before trying to use your phone, connect the NEC battery charger (AC adapter) supplied with your phone to a suitable mains power socket.
☛With the arrow marks of the charger plug facing up, hold the buttons on both sides of the charger plug with your thumb and index finger.
☛Press the buttons as indicated by the arrow marks on the charger plug and insert the plug into the charger connector.
,Make sure to insert the charger plug with the arrow marks facing up. Otherwise, damage to the charger connector can occur when disconnecting the
charger plug.

LED will turn off.
2You are recommended to switch off the phone while charging. If you need to receive calls, your phone can be switched on and left in standby while being charged,
although the total time taken to charge is then increased.
☛After the charging is complete, press the buttons of the charger plug as indicated by the arrow marks on the charger plug (➀) and gently pull straight out of the

The icons show the charging status of battery.
Battery charging Battery charging stopped due to overheat
,Using any AC adapter, vehicle power adapter (option) or dual tap (option) not specified by NEC for use with this phone can be dangerous and may
invalidate any warranty and approval given to the cellphone. Do not leave the charger connected to the mains supply when it is not in use.
,Do not try to charge the battery if the ambient temperature is below 5°C (41°F) or above 35°C (95°F).
2If the phone does not respond, please wait for a few minutes. The charging will then start.
2If you use the phone while charging, handle the phone carefully since the cable or adapter is connected.
2If you make/receive a call while charging, the charging may temporarily be interrupted.
2Charging takes approximately 3 hours with your phone turned off.
2Even if the phone remains connected to the charger, battery residual capacity may decrease when the phone is used for video recording, playing or other battery
consuming operation.
,IMPORTANT BATTERY CHARGING INFORMATION
Charging a very low battery
The battery’s charge continues to drop after the low battery warning is displayed. In extreme cases where the battery is left uncharged for some considerable time
after this warning, a trickle charge is used to slowly top-up the battery to the safe level at which the fast charging can begin. The phone can be in trickle charge for
a few minutes before the fast charging starts.
Standby and talk times
Your phone works closely with the network you are using to provide the services you need, and the standby and talk times achieved will depend on how you use the
phone and choices made by the network operator.
In particular, factors such as your location within the network, the frequency at which this location is updated, the type of SIM card you have, your reception of area
messages or cell broadcast messages and the use of full rate or enhanced full rate speech, will affect both standby and talk times.
Checking the battery
☛Check icon at the top of the standby screen.
The number of blocks on the icon shows the battery charge level.
Full battery power Partial battery power Low battery power Battery empty
Low battery alarm
When the battery voltage falls below the working level, a low battery warning is displayed on the screen accompanied by LED illumination and a short tone along with
an empty battery icon. The phone will automatically power down shortly afterwards.
2Please charge the battery as much as possible when the battery is very low.

Getting Started
Other battery alarms
Your phone may display warnings when the battery temperature is too high, or the voltage of the battery or the charger is over the appropriate level. Follow the instruction
given by these warnings immediately.
Start-up
Switching the phone on
☛Hold down for about a second to switch on. The screen will display the selected greeting (if set, see page 27) and the phone is then in standby.
,You may need to charge the battery before using your phone.
2When your phone is turned on, the specified ringer may sound.
2If your phone is accidentally turned off while downloading or deleting Java™ application, it will take longer than usual to start up the phone the next time you turn
on the power.
Switching the phone off
☛Hold down until the display shows the switch off message.
PIN code
The SIM card issued by your service provider has a security feature called PIN code protection. The Personal Identification Number (PIN) is a number put on to the
card by your service provider, and is 4 to 8 digits long. Some service providers supply SIM cards which will cause your phone to prompt for a PIN code when it is turned
on. If this is the case, enter your code with the phone’s keypad. If you insert a SIM card other than your own, information such as call logs may be lost (see “Security
(M17)” on page 28 for details).
