General care
A phone contains delicate electronic circuitry,
magnets and battery systems. You should treat it
with care and pay attention to the following:
• This phone 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 with an
incorrect battery type. Dispose of the used battery in
accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
• Do not allow the phone, battery or accessories to come
into contact with liquids or moisture at any time. Do not
immerse in liquid.
• Do not paint the phone.
• Do not drop, throw or subject the 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 a window sill, behind glass in direct
sunlight, etc.
• Do not remove the 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 batteries in a fire. Dispose of Li-ION
batteries at a Li-ION recycling point. For more specific
battery and power supply information, see page 11 and
page 13.
• Do not put the battery in your mouth, as battery
electrolytes may be toxic if swallowed.
• Do not attempt to dismantle the phone or any of its
accessories.
• Do not put a battery into a microwave oven, dryer or
high-pressure container.
• Do not let the battery come into direct contact with an
electric outlet or cigarette lighter charger. Use only
authorised charger units.
• Do not pierce the battery with a sharp object such as a
needle.
• When the battery is thrown away, be sure it is non-
conducting by applying vinyl tape to the (+) and (-)
terminals.
Important Safety Information

PL-2 Important Safety Information
• Do not disassemble or modify the battery.
• Do not solder the battery directly.
• Stop using the battery if you detect any abnormalities,
such as odour, discolouration or heat during use,
charge or storage.
• Do not use the phone with a damaged or misshapen
battery.
• In the unlikely event of a battery leak, take care to keep
the battery discharge away from your eyes or skin. If
the leakage does come into contact with the eyes or
skin, please flush thoroughly in clean water and consult
a doctor.
• Remove a worn out battery immediately.
• The handset itself may become warm when the
handset is used for an extended period of time or when
the video functions are used. Also, it may become
warm while the battery is being charged.
• When a phone is set to Vibration mode, the vibration
can sometimes cause your phone to move. Be careful
not to place the phone near heat sources (such as a
heater) or too close to the edge of the table.
• Use an anti-static cloth to clean the phone. Do not use
an ordinary 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.
• Remember to make backup copies of all important data
on your phone.
• Do not leave the battery pack empty or disconnected
for a long time, otherwise some data may be initialised.
• Take care not to put your phone in your back pocket
and then sit on it. Also, do not put your phone at the
bottom of a bag where it may subject to excessive
weight or pressure. Doing so may damage the LCD
and camera lens and cause them to malfunction.
• Hold the phone away from your ear when you
- Play video/music on the Multimedia Player
- Play the ringtone through the speaker.
It may damage, or irritate your ears.
Safety
The use of mobile phones is not allowed in some
radiation-sensitive areas, such as hospitals,
research centres and aircraft. Ensure that you
switch off your phone in these areas. If in doubt,
remove the battery.
Aircraft safety
Switch off your phone and remove its battery when
inside or near an aircraft. The use of phones in
aircraft is illegal. It may be dangerous to the
operation of the aircraft and it may disrupt the
mobile network. Failure to observe this instruction
may lead to suspension or denial of mobile network
services to the offender or legal action or both.
Do not use the phone on the ground without the
permission of the ground staff.
Hospital safety
Switch off your phone and remove its battery in
areas where the use of phones is prohibited. Follow
the instructions given by the respective medical
centre regarding the use of mobile phones on their
premises.
General safety
• Observe “Turn off mobile” signs, such as those near
petrol stations, chemicals or explosives and switch off
your phone.
• If you have a heart condition, be careful with the call
vibration or tone volume settings.
• Do not allow children to play with the phone, charger or
batteries.
• Do not use the phone where blasting is in progress.

Important Safety Information PL-3
• The operation of some medical electronic devices,
such as hearing aids and pacemakers, may be affected
if you use a mobile phone next to them. Observe any
warning signs and the manufacturer's
recommendations.
• Your phone contains metal which may cause a skin
irritation, a rash or eczema.
Road safety
• You MUST exercise proper control of your vehicle at all
times. Give your full attention to driving.
• Observe all local safety regulations regarding the use
of mobile phones while driving.
• Pull off the road and park before making or answering a
call.
• 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 as a radio transmitter.
• 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
the phone until it has been checked by qualified
approved installers.
• Check if local laws and/or regulations restrict the use of
phones while driving.
Vehicles equipped with an airbag
An airbag inflates with great force. Do not place
objects, including either installed or portable
wireless equipment, in the area over the airbag or in
the airbag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless
equipment is improperly installed and the airbag
inflates, serious injury could result.
Third party equipment
The use of third party equipment, batteries, cables
or accessories, not made or authorised by NEC,
may invalidate the warranty of your phone and also
adversely affect the phone's operation.
Service
The phone, batteries and charger contain no user-
serviceable parts. We recommend that your NEC
phone is serviced or repaired by an NEC authorised
service centre. Please NEC for advice.
Efficient use
The phone has an external antenna. For optimum
performance with minimum power consumption,
please do not cover the external antenna area with
your hand. Covering the external antenna affects
call quality, may cause the phone to operate at
higher power levels than needed and may shorten
talk and standby times.
Radio frequency energy
Your phone is a low-power radio transmitter/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
• The 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 organisations such as ICNIRP

PL-4 Important Safety Information
(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 the phone is designed to conform to:
• ICNIRP, Guidelines for limiting exposure to time-varying
electric, magnetic and electromagnetic fields (up to 300
GHz)-International Commission on Non-Ionizing
Radiation Protection (ICNIRP). Health Physics, vol.74.
pp, 494-522, April 1998.

limitation of exposure of the general public to
electromagnetic fields 0 Hz-300 GHz. Official Journal
of the European Communities, July 12, 1999.

human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic
fields, 3kHz to 300 GHz”. The Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers Inc., New York, 1991.

Charging the Battery
To Insert the Battery
When fitting the battery, face the outside cover of the battery
towards you. Place the top of the battery into position and
push the lower section of the battery into place.
☛Set the battery.
☛Return the battery cover.
,Handle with care for setting the battery.
You can charge the battery whenever you wish without
affecting the performance of the phone.
2Your N600i automatically switches off if the battery
charge is too low.
2Batteries have a life cycle. If you find that the amount of
times you have to charge the battery is increasing
dramatically, the battery life may be coming to an end.
Use only the NEC original or approved batteries.
Unapproved batteries can impair the performance of the
phone and invalidate the warranty.
2When the battery is not being used for a long period of
time, remove it from your N600i and store in a cool, dry
place.
2A battery that has not been used for a long period of time
needs to be completely discharged and then recharged
two or three times before reaching full capacity.
To Charge the Battery Using the Charger
☛Insert the battery into the phone (see To Insert the
Battery in this section).
☛Connect the charger plug to your N600i charger
connector.
☛Plug the charger into a mains socket. The LED
indicator on your N600i lights up while charging is in
progress and goes off when charging is completed.
☛After charging is completed, unplug the charger from
the charger connector.
2When the phone is being used, the battery level may
decrease even if the phone remains connected to the
charger.
2The battery must be charged at room temperature.
Ensure that your phone is switched off. If the phone
temperature is high, wait until it returns to a normal
temperature.
2The recommended battery charge time is approximately
two hours.
2Stop charging the battery if charging is not completed
within five hours. Remove the charger from the phone
and connect it again to restart the charging.
2The LED indicator may take a few minutes to light up
after the phone starts charging an empty battery.
