Emergency Services and Safety Precautions
Emergency Services
To make an emergency call in any country.
☛Press 1 1 2
Ask the operator for the service which you require: Police, Ambulance, Fire Brigade, Coastguard or
Mountain Rescue Services. State your location and, if possible, remain stationary to maintain phone
contact.
The 112 emergency number service is available on every digital network service. The number 999 is an
alternative emergency number for the UK only, and can only be used with a valid SIM card.
2Due to the nature of the cellular system, the success of emergency calls cannot be
guaranteed.
General Care
A cellphone contains delicate electronic circuitry, magnets, and battery systems. You should treat it with
care and give particular attention to the following points.
•Do not allow the phone or its accessories to come into contact with liquid or moisture at any time.
•Do not place anything in the folded phone.
•Do not expose your phone to extreme high or low temperatures.
•Do not expose your phone to naked flame, cigars or cigarettes.
•Do not paint your phone.
•Do not drop or subject your phone to rough treatment.
•Do not place the phone alongside computer disks, credit cards, travel cards and other magnetic media.
The information contained on disks or cards may be affected by the phone.
•Do not leave the phone or the battery in places where the temperature could exceed 60°C, e.g. on a car
dashboard or on a window sill, behind glass in direct sunlight, etc.
•Do not remove the phone’s battery while the phone is switched on.
•Take care not to allow metal objects, such as coins or key rings, to contact or short-circuit the battery
terminals.
•Do not dispose of battery packs in a fire. Your phone's Li-ION batteries may be safely disposed of at Li-
ion recycling points. For more specific battery and power supply information, see page 8 and 9.
•Do not put your phone’s battery in your mouth as battery electrolytes may be toxic if swallowed.
•Do not attempt to dismantle the phone or any of its accessories.
•This equipment is fitted with an internal battery that can only be replaced by a qualified service engineer.
There is a risk of explosion if the battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of the used battery in
accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
•Using any battery pack, AC adapter or Cigar Lighter adapter (option) not specified by the manufacturer
for use with this phone creates a potential safety hazard.
•The earpiece may become warm during normal use and the unit itself may become warm during
charging.
•Use a damp or anti-static cloth to clean the phone. Do NOT use a dry cloth or electrostatically charged
cloth. Do not use chemical or abrasive cleaners as these could damage the case.
•Remember to recycle: the cardboard packaging supplied with this phone is ideal for recycling.
Aircraft Safety
•Switch off your phone and remove its battery when inside or near aircraft. The use of cellphones in
aircraft is illegal, it may be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft and it may disrupt the cellular
network. Failure to observe this instruction may lead to suspension or denial of cellphone service to the
offender, or legal action, or both.
•Do not use your phone on the ground without the permission of the ground crew.
General Safety
•Observe ‘Turn off 2-way radio’ signs, such as those near stores of fuel, chemicals or explosives.
•Do not allow children to play with the phone, charger or batteries.
•Small parts are included in your phone. Keep them out of reach of small children, for whom it could be a
choking hazard.
•The operation of some medical electronic devices, such as hearing aids and pacemakers, may be
affected if a cellphone is used next to them. Observe any warning signs and manufacturer's
recommendations.
•If you have a weak heart, you should take extra precautions when setting functions such as the Vibrator
and Ring tone volume functions for incoming calls.
•If you set the Vibrator setting to anything other than OFF, be careful that the phone is not near a source
of heat (e.g. a heater) and that it does not fall from a desk due to the vibration.
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 cellphone 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 authorised 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 authorised service centre. Please contact your Service
Provider or NEC for advice.

ii
Non-Ionising Radiations
The radio equipment shall be connected to the antenna via a non-radiating cable (e.g. coax).
The antenna shall be mounted in such a position that no part of the antenna will be in proximity to the
human body unless there is an intervening metallic screen, for example, the metallic roof.
Use only an antenna that has been specifically designed for your mobile phone. Use of unauthorized
antennas, modifications or attachments could damage the mobile 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 phases:
•Hold the mobile phone as you would any other telephone. While speaking directly into the mouthpiece,
angle the antenna in a direction up and over your shoulder.
•Do not hold the antenna when the mobile phone is in use. Holding the antenna affects call quality, may
cause the mobile phone to operate at a higher power level than needed and may shorten talk and
standby times.
Radio Frequency Energy
Your mobile 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, EU 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 communications (Electromagnetic Radiation Human Exposure) Standard 1999, Australian
Communications Authority (ACA), May 1999.

Before You Start
Cellphone system structure
It is worth remembering that every time you use your phone, three or four different organisations are involved:
All the features described in this user manual are supported by your phone. However, for all these features to work, you must have a SIM card (supplied by your Service Provider) that
also supports these features. Even if you have a fully featured SIM card, any feature not supported by the Network transmitting your call will not work. This last point is especially important
when you are roaming networks (see page 11).
User guide conventions
When one or more of the ▲▼and keys symbols are shown, the relevant part of the 4 way navigation key
should be pressed (see right).
There are two keys that change their functions according to the phone’s current use. They are referred to as

Preparing the phone
Before you try to use your phone, check the following has been carried out.
•Valid SIM card inserted (see below)
•Battery charged (see page 1)
•PIN code entered (if necessary - see page 3)
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. There are two types of SIM cards, plug-in and full-size, and this phone uses the
plug-in type. The screen on your phone will display appropriate messages if no SIM card is fitted.
Inserting a SIM card
(1) Make sure that the power is off, then remove the battery to reveal the SIM card location.
(2) Slide the SIM card ensuring the gold contacts are face down and the notch on the card lines up as shown. Making absolutely sure
the SIM card is fully inserted, attach the battery.
Removing a SIM card
(3) With the battery removed (see below), remove the SIM card sliding it lightly in the direction of the arrow.
,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 NEC
GSM phone helps to ensure that
your conversations are kept secure.
2The SIM card contains personal data
such as your electronic phonebook,
messages (see page 37) 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.
,Do not scratch the holders of the
both side when inserting or
removing a SIM card.
,If the SIM card is not fully inserted
when the battery is replaced,
damage to the SIM card can
occur.
2If the SIM card is already fitted, see
Start-up on page 3.
(1) Remove the battery.

an animation or greetings text (see page 21 to change the text) and the phone is then in standby.
Switching the phone off
☛Hold down until the display shows the power down message.
PIN code
The SIM card issued by your service provider has a security feature called PIN code protection. The PIN
(Personal Identification Number) 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, use the phone’s keypad to enter your code. You can disable this prompt (see
page 35). If you insert a SIM card other than your own, information such as call logs may be lost.

phone’s features).
Status Icons
This area contains icons which indicate the battery strength, new short message, call diversion on, new voice mail, GPRS attached, Line

or messages on the 2nd-LCD (for details, see page 22).

can be identified. During charging, it will be in Colour 9 (Apple).
Help & Softkey area
This area can contain help information (e.g. key presses remaining when composing a message) and context sensitive descriptions of the
softkeys’ functions. This area will also display the alarm icon if the alarm is set.
