2.1 Warnings

1. CARE MUST BE TAKEN ON INSTALLATION IN VEHICLES FITTED WITH ELECTRONIC ENGINE

MAN AGEMENT SYSTEMS AND ANTI –SKID BRAKING SYSTEMS. UNDER CERTAIN FAULT CONDITIONS,

EMITTED RF ENERGY CAN AFFECT THEIR OPERATION. IF NECESSARY, CONSULT THE VEHICLE

DEALER/MANUFACTURER TO DETERMINE THE IMMUNITY OF VEHICLE ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS TO RF

ENERGY.

2. THE HANDPORTABLE TELEPHONE MUST NOT BE OPERATED IN AREAS LIKELY TO CONTAIN

POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES, EG PETROL STATIONS (SERVICE STATIONS), BLASTING

AREAS ETC.

3. OPERATION OF ANY RADIO TRANSMITTING EQUIPMENT, INCLUDING CELLULAR TELEPHONES, MAY

INTERFERE WITH THE FUNCTIONALITY OF INADEQUATELY PROTECTED MEDICAL DEVICES. CONSULT

A PHYSICIAN OR THE MANUFACTURER OF THE MEDICAL DEVICE IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.

OTHER ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT MAY ALSO BE SUBJECT TO INTERFERENCE.

2.2 Cautions

1. Servicing and alignment must be undertaken by qualified personnel only.

2. Ensure all work is carried out at an anti–s ta tic works ta tion and tha t an anti–static wris t

strap is worn.

3. ESD PROTECTION

Nokia requires that service points have sufficien t ESD protection (against sta tic

electricity) when servicing the phone.

Any product of which the covers are removed must be handled with ESD

protection. The SIM card can be replaced without ESD protection if the product

is otherwise ready for use.

To replace the covers ESD protection must be applied.

All elec tronic parts of the product are susceptible to ESD. Resis tors, too, can be

damaged by static elec tr icity discharge.

All ESD sensitive parts must be packed in metallized protective bags during

shipping and handling outside any ESD Protected Area (EPA).

Every repair action involving opening the product or handling the product

components must be done under ESD protection.

ESD protected spare part packages MUST NOT be opened/closed out of an ESD

Protected Area.

For more information and local requirements about ESD protection and ESD

Protected Area, contact your local Nokia After Market Services representative.

4. CARE AND MAINTENANCE

This product is of superior design and craftsmanship and should be treated with care. The

suggestions below will help you to fulfil any warranty obligations and to enjoy this product for

many years.

•Keep the phone and all its parts and accessories out of the reach of small

children.

•Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity and all types of liquids or

moisture can conta in minerals that will corrode electronic circuits.

•Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty areas. Its moving parts can be

damaged.

•Do not store the phone in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the life

of electronic devices, damage batteries, and warp or melt certain plastics.

•Do not store the phone in cold areas. When it warms up (to its normal

temperature), moisture can form inside, which may damage electronic circuit

boards.

•Do not drop, knock or shake the phone. Rough handling can break internal

circuit boards.

•Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean

the phone.

•Do not paint the phone. Paint can clog the moving parts and prevent proper

operation.

•Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorised

antennas, modifications or attachments could damage the phone and may

violate regulations governing radio devices.

All of the above suggestions apply equally to the product, battery, charger or any accessory.

5. BATTERY INFORMATION

Note: A new battery’s full performance is achieved only after two or three complete charge and

discharge cycles! The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times but it will

eventually wear out.

When the operating time (talk-time and standby time) is noticeably shorter than normal, it is

time to buy a new battery. Use only batteries approved by the phone manufacturer and

recharge the battery only with the chargers approved by the manufacturer.

Unplug the charger when not in use. Do not leave the battery connected to a charger for longer

than a week, since overcharging may shorten its lifetime.

If left unused a fully charged battery will discharge itself over time Temperature extremes can

affect the ability of your battery to charge.

For good operation times with Ni-Cd/NiMh batteries, discharge the battery from time to time by

leaving the product switched on until it turns itself off (or by using the battery discharge facility

of any approved accessory available for the product).

Do not attemp t to discharge the battery by any other means Use the ba ttery only for its

intended purpose.

Never use any charger or battery which is damaged.

Do not short-circuit the b a ttery. Accidental sho rt-circuiting can occur when a metallic objec t

(coin, clip or pen) causes direct connection of the + and - terminals of the battery ( meta l str ips

on the battery) for example when you carry a spare battery in your pocket or purse.

Shortcircuiting 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 winter conditions,

will reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try to keep the battery between 15°C

and 25°C (59°F and 77°F).

A phone with a hot or cold battery may temporarily not work, even when the battery is fully

charged. Batteries’ performance is particularly limited in temperatures well below freezing.

Do not dispose batteries in a fire! Dispose of batteries according to local regulations (e.g.

recycling).

Do not dispose as household waste.
