Emergency Services and Safety Precautions
Emergency Services
To make an emergency call in any country
☛Press 112
Ask the operator for the service which you require: Police, Ambulance, Fire Brigade, Coastguard or
Mountain Rescue Services. Give your position 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.
ODue 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; 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 4.
•
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, Vehicle power adapter (option) or Desktop charger (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.
•
The user hereby agrees that the user shall be solely responsible for the result of the use of SSL.
Neither DoCoMo nor the certifier as listed herein makes any representation and warranty as for the
security in the use of SSL. In the event that the user shall sustain damage or loss due to the use of
SSL, neither DoCoMo nor the certifier shall be responsible for any such damage or loss.
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.

ii
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 invehicle 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.
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 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, 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.

Getting Started
Preparing the phone
Before trying to use your phone, make sure the followings have been carried out.
•Valid SIM card inserted (see below)
•Battery charged (see page 2)
•PIN code entered (if necessary - see page 2)
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 then 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 card, 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 the power is off and remove the battery with 1 & 2 to reveal the SIM card location.
(2)Slide the SIM card into the cardholder ensuring the gold contact faces down and the notch on the card lines up as shown. Making
absolutely sure the SIM card is fully inserted, gently press the cardholder into place. Then replace the battery.
IIf 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.
OThe phone supports a number
of languages and the keyboard
symbols have been chosen for
world-wide operation.
OThe digital technology of your
NEC GSM phone helps to ensure
that your conversations are kept
secure.
OThe SIM card contains personal
data such as your electronic
phonebook, messages (see
page 42) 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.
IIf the SIM card is not fully
inserted when the battery is
replaced, damage to the SIM
card can occur.
OIf the SIM card is already fitted,
see “Start-up” on page 2.

Removing a SIM card
•With the battery removed (see page 1), lift up the cardholder and slide the SIM card out of the cardholder.
Charging the battery
Before trying to use your phone, insert the phone’s battery, connect the NEC battery charger (AC adapter) supplied with your phone to
a suitable mains power socket and then connect the charger’s output to the phone’s charger connector. For full information about

page 23 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, 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.
Display information
Main-LCD graphic display area
This area contains the greeting graphic on power up, status graphics and information when searching for networks and making calls.
When in the standby mode it shows the current network and whatever you have keyed in with the phone’s keypad.

Security status, Lock status, Camera quality, Line status, Network signal strength, Vibrator status, Mode status, current Time & Date,
Call forwarding status, and Java™.
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.
OYou may need to charge the
battery before using your phone.
If the phone gives no response
when switched on, read the
information about batteries on
page 4.

Caring for Batteries
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 or Cell broadcast messages and the use of Full Rate or Enhanced Full Rate speech, will affect both standby
and talk times.
