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 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.

•Do not leave the battery pack empty or disconnected for a long time, otherwise some data may

be initialized.

•Your phone contains metal which may cause you an itch, a rash or eczema depending on your

constitution or physical condition.

•Take care not to put your phone in the back pocket of your trousers or skirt and then sit on it.

Also, do not put your phone at the bottom of bag where it may subject to excessive weight or

pressure.

Doing so may damage the LCD and camera lens and cause them malfunction.

•Take care not to hold the Light too close to your or other people’s eyes when the Light is lit.

•Do not aim or direct the InfraRed (IR) data port towards your or other people’s eyes when using

the IR data exchange.

•The foam covers the earpiece of the headset. Do not put any other part of the headset in your

ears.

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.

Hospital Safety

•Switch off your phone in areas where the use of cellphones is prohibited. Follow the instructions

given by the respective medical facility regarding the use of cellphones on their premises.

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 Ringer 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 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)”.

THIS NEC PHONE (MODEL N820) COMPLIES WITH THE EU 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 (TBD)(TBD)W/kg. While there may be differences between the SAR*levels of various phones

and at various positions, they all meet*** the EU 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 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over ten

grams of tissue, recommended by The Council of the European Union.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 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) SignalsRadio Frequency (RF) Signals(1900MHz)(1900MHz)

THIS NEC PHONE (MODEL N820) COMPLIES WITH THE USA 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

FCC ID# A98-KMP6J1L1FCC ID# A98-KMP6J1L1

Model # KMP6J1L1-1AModel # KMP6J1L1-1A

for use at the ear is (TBD)(TBD) W/ kg, and when worn on the body, is (TBD)(TBD) 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/

fcid after search on FCC ID A98KMP6J1L1.

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

Preparing the phone

Before trying to use your phone, make sure the followings have been carried out.

•Valid SIM card inserted

•Battery 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.

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.

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

messages or cell broadcast messages and the use of full rate or enhanced full rate speech, will affect both standby and talk times.
