Basic Steps to Use Your Phone

The phone can make and receive calls only

when it is switched on, has a valid SIM

card inserted and is located in the service

area of the cellular network.

To insert the SIM card into the phone:

➀Press and hold to switch off your

phone. Always switch off the power be-

fore removing the battery.

•Press the locking catch, slide the bat-

tery downwards and lift it off the phone.

•Ensure that the golden connectors on

the SIM card are facing the connectors

on the phone.

Place the card into the back of the

phone and slide it upwards.

•You can now also insert the metal clip

supplied with the Belt Clip Kit acces-

sory into the slot under the cover of the

phone.

•Attach the battery by placing it on the

back of the phone and slide it upwards

until the locking catch snaps into place.

➁To charge the battery, connect the

phone to the charger. Connect the

charger to the proper voltage AC

power supply.

Press and hold to switch on your

phone. If the phone displays the

prompt PIN CODE ?,enterthePIN

code provided with the SIM card and

press M.

While charging is in progress, the bat-

tery charge indicator scrolls on the dis-

play.

Note:

If the battery is totally empty, the text

POWERING UP and the indicator will

appear on the display. Charging is in

progress but the phone cannot be

used until the battery charge is high

enough.

➂If needed, change the display texts into

English by pressing MENU499.

Battery Information

Charging and Discharging

Note that a new battery’s full performance

is achieved only after two or three com-

plete charge and discharge cycles!

The battery can be charged and dis-

charged hundreds of times but it will even-

tually wear out. When the operating time

(talk-time and standby time) is noticeably

shorter than normal, it is time to buy a new

battery.

When the charge drops to approximately

5% of the maximum battery capacity, the

message BATTERY LOW will warn you at

regular intervals. When there is no battery

capacity left, the message RECHARGE

BATTERY is displayed and the phone will

automatically be switched off to discharg-

ing mode when a charger is not con-

nected. During discharging, the message

DISCHARGING is blinking, and the phone

cannot be used. When the battery is dis-

charged, connect the phone to a charger

and CHARGING will be displayed for two

seconds when charging process is started.

Discharging can be interrupted by connect-

ing the phone to the charger.

While charging is in progress and the

powerisswitchedoff,thebatterycharge

indicator bar scrolls from clear to a full bar

on the phone display. When the indicator

disappears and the display is empty, charg-

ing is completed.

When the power is on during charging, the

battery indicator bar scrolls, and the phone

can be used.

Note:

If the battery is totally empty, the text POW-

ERING UP and the indicator appear on

the display. Charging is in progress but no

actions can be done until the battery

charge is high enough.

Use only batteries approved by the phone

manufacturer and recharge your battery

only with the chargers approved by the

manufacturer. When a charger is not in

use, disconnect it from the power source.

Do not leave the battery connected to a

charger for longer than a week, since over-

charging may shorten its life. If left unused

a fully charged battery will discharge itself

over time.

For good operation times, discharge the

battery from time to time as described (or

by using the battery discharge facility of

any approved accessory available for your

phone). Do not attempt to discharge the

battery by any other means.

Temperature extremes will affect the ability

of your battery to charge: it may require

cooling or warming first.

Note:

Use the battery only for its intended pur-

pose.

Never use any charger or battery which is

damaged or worn out.

Always switch the power off before remov-

ing the battery.

Note:

However, the battery can be removed

when the phone is discharging (DIS-

CHARGING is flashing on the display).

English

Do not short circuit the battery. Accidental

short circuiting can occur when a metallic

object (coin, clip or pen) causes direct con-

nection of the + and - terminals of the bat-

tery (metal strips on the back of the

battery) for example when you carry a

spare battery in your pocket or purse.

Short circuiting the terminals may damage

the battery or the connecting object.

Leaving the battery in hot or cold places,

such as in a closed car in summer or win-

ter conditions, will reduce the capacity and

lifetime of the battery. Always try to keep

the battery between 15°C and 25°C (59F

and 77F). A phone with a hot or cold bat-

tery may temporarily not work, even when

the battery is fully charged. NiMH batteries

performance is particularly limited in tem-

peratures below -10°C (14F).

Dispose of used batteries in accordance

with local regulations. Recycle!

Do not dispose of batteries in a fire!
