1 • Get started
Read the safety instructions in the «Precautions» section be-
fore use.
To use your phone, you must insert a valid SIM card
supplied by your GSM operator or retailer. The SIM
card contains your subscription, your mobile number,
and memory in which you can store phone numbers
and messages (see “Phonebook” page 27).
1.
Press on the two clips on each side of the back
cover of your phone as shown below and remove
it.
2.
Remove the SIM card from its holder and insert it
under the metal clip holder, until it stops. Be
careful that the clipped corner of the card is in the
correct corner.
3.
Slide the battery door into its slot, metallic con-
nectors downwards, until it stops. Then lock it by
pushing it downwards.
4.
Replace the back cover of your phone: hook the
front housing onto the hinges on the top of the
phone, then press the bottom down until the
latch catches.
Insert the SIM card

Remove the protective film covering the screen
before using the phone.
1.
To switch on the phone, press the
)
key.
2.
When you switch on the phone, you may be
prompted to enter the PIN code, which is the 4
to 8-digit secret code of your SIM card to protect
it from unauthorised use. It is preconfigured and
communicated to you by your operator or
retailer. To personalise the PIN code, see page 41.
If you enter a wrong PIN code 3 times, your SIM card
is blocked. To unblock it, you must request the PUK
code from your operator.
3.
Enter your PIN code. If you make a mistake,
press
c
. Then press
,
or
#
.to confirm.
As prompted by the phone at first switch on, set the
date by pressing the appropriate numeric keys (press
c
to erase a number), then press
,
to validate.
Proceed in the same way to set the time.
For complete date and time options, see page 44.
If you do not copy the SIM phonebook at very first
switch, you will be able to do it directly from the phone-
book menu (see page 27).
If you had a mobile phone before and are using the
same SIM card, the card might contain all or part of
your current phonebook. The mobile phone detects
this and a message asks you if you want to copy your
SIM phonebook onto the built-in phonebook. Press
c
to cancel or
,
to accept.
Whether you accepted, aborted or cancelled the copy,
the phonebook located on your phone is always auto-
matically set as your default phonebook. To switch
back to the SIM phonebook, press

Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery. A
new battery is partially charged and an alarm will warn
you when the battery reaches low.
We recommend that you do not remove the battery
when the phone is switched on: you may lose all your
personal settings (see information on battery safety,
page 95).
1.
Once the battery and battery cover are clipped on
the phone, plug the connector of the charger
(supplied with the phone, in the box) into the
LEFT
hand socket at the base of the phone on one
end, then plug it into a main AC power socket
with easy access on the other end.
2.
The battery symbol indicates the state of charge:
• During charging the 4 charge indicators change;
Each bar represents around 25% of charge and it
takes around 1.45 hours to fully recharge your
mobile phone.
• When all 4 bars are steady the battery is fully
charged, you can disconnect the charger.
Depending on the network and condition of use,
talk time can be up to 6 hrs and stand-by time up
to 300 hrs.
Keeping the charger plugged to the mobile when the
battery is fully charged doesn’t damage the battery. The
only way to turn off the charger is to unplug it, so use
an easily accessible AC power socket. You can connect
the charger to an IT supply (Belgium only).
3.
If you don’t intend to use your phone for several
days, we recommend you disconnect the battery.
You can use the phone while it is on charge (note that
the vibra alert goes
Off
when plugging the charger). If
the battery is completely flat, the battery icon will only
reappear after 2 or 3 minutes of charging.
Charge the battery
