Legal notices

VAR Language: en2; VAR issue date: 050331

battery under normal network conditions

and with the default settings as set by the

factory. However, playing games (particu-

larly with the backlight continuously

switched on) and listening to music will

shorten the time available for standby

and to make and receive telephone calls.

Operation times also vary depending on

network conditions, SIM settings, charg-

ing and battery condition, how you use

your phone and other factors.

Memory

The mobile phone contains an internal

memory device that stores the software

required to operate the mobile phone,

communicate with the GSM/GPRS net-

work and provide the user interface.

Some features in the internal memory

run additional devices and some addition-

al games and utilities. The amount of

memory available in the mobile phone is

finite and may be insufficient to store

large numbers of applications and files.

Warning!

Remember to back up your data and to do so fre-

quently. Always back up all data and programs

before sending the mobile phone in for repair.

Safety precautions

VAR Language: en2; VAR issue date: 050331

Safety precautions

Information for parents

Please read the operating instructions and safety precautions carefully before use.

Explain the content and the hazards associated with using the phone to your children.

Remember to comply with legal re-

quirements and local restrictions

when using the phone. For example

in aeroplanes, petrol stations, hos-

pitals or while driving.

Mobile phones can interfere with

the functioning of medical devices

such as hearing aids or pacemak-

ers. Keep at least 20 cm/9 inches

between phone and pacemaker.

When using the mobile phone hold

it to the ear which is further away

from the pacemaker. For more

information consult your doctor.

The ringtones (p. 17), message to-

nes (p. 17) and handsfree talking

are reproduced through the loud-

speaker. Do not hold the phone to

your ear when it rings or when you

have switched on the handsfree

function (p. 12). Otherwise you risk

serious permanent damage to your

hearing.

Only use original Siemens batteries

(100 % mercury-free) and – charg-

ing devices. Otherwise you risk seri-

ous damage to health and property.

The battery could explode, for in-

stance.

Small parts such as the SIM card,

sealing stop, lens ring and lens cap

can be dismantled and swallowed

by small children. The phone must

therefore be stored out of the reach

of small children.

The mains voltage specified on the

power supply unit (V) must not be

exceeded. Otherwise the charging

device may be destroyed.

The power supply must be plugged

into an easily accessible AC mains

power socket when charging the

battery. The only way to turn off the

charging device after charging the

battery is to unplug it.

Do not use a handheld while

driving.

Do not place the phone near to elec-

tromagnetic data carriers such as

credit cards and floppy disks. Infor-

mation stored on them could be lost.

You may only open the phone to re-

place the battery (100 % mercury-

free) or SIM card. You must not

open the battery under any circum-

stances. All other changes to this

device are strictly prohibited and will

invalidate the guarantee.

right page (5) of A71 FCC, LAM en, (23.08.2005, 08:53)

Safety precautions

VAR Language: en2; VAR issue date: 050331

Antenna care

Use only the supplied or an approved re-

placement antenna. Unauthorized anten-

nas, modifications, or attachments could

damage the phone and may violate FCC

regulations.

Phone operation

Normal position

Hold the phone as you would any other

telephone with the antenna pointed up

and over your shoulder.

Tips on efficient operation

For your phone to operate most

efficiently:

• Extend your antenna fully

(if applicable).

• Do not touch the antenna unnecessari-

ly when the phone is in use. Contact

with the antenna affects call quality

and may cause the phone to operate at

a higher power level than otherwise

needed.

Important:

Please dispose of unwanted batter-

ies and phones as permitted by the

laws in your country.

The phone may cause interference

in the vicinity of TV sets, radios and

PCs.

Use only Siemens original accesso-

ries. This will avoid potential risks to

health or property and ensure com-

pliance with all relevant regulations.

Improper use will invalidate the guarantee!

These safety instructions also apply to Siemens

original accessories.

Product attributes are subject to changes in tech-

nology, design and availability. Siemens reserves

the right to modify products without prior notice.

This cellular phone offers a range of functions, it

can be used in positions other than the head, such

as on the body. In this case, separation distance

of 1.0 cm is required. When a carry case, belt clip

or holder is used for body-worn operation, it

should not contain metal and should position the

device the above-stated distance from your body.

Important

Read this information before using your

wireless handheld phone.

As this mobile phone is equipped with a

fixed (non-retractable) antenna, some

paragraphs in the text below may not be

applicable.

Safety precautions

VAR Language: en2; VAR issue date: 050331

Driving

Laws pertaining to the use of mobile

phones while driving vary significantly from

state to state and sometimes even from lo-

cality to locality within states. For example,

some areas may allow persons to use their

mobile phones only if they employ a hands-

free device, and some areas may prohibit

the use of cell phones entirely. Accordingly,

Siemens recommends that persons check

the laws for the areas in which they drive or

will be driving. For areas where the use of

mobile phones while driving is permitted,

Siemens encourages persons to use their

phones responsibly and to employ hands-

free devices. Also, if using your phone while

driving, please:

• Give full attention to driving – driving

safely is your first responsibility;

• Use hands-free operation, if available;

• Pull off the road and park before mak-

ing or answering a call, if driving condi-

tions so require.

For vehicles equipped with air bags

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 deploy-

ment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment

is improperly installed and the air bag in-

flates, serious injury could result.

Electronic devices

Most modern electronic equipment is

shielded from radio frequency (RF) sig-

nals. However, certain electronic equip-

ment may not be shielded against the RF

signals from your wireless phone.

Pacemakers

The Health Industry Manufacturers' Associ-

ation recommends that a minimum separa-

tion of six inches (6") be maintained be-

tween a handheld wireless phone and a

pacemaker to avoid potential interference

with the pacemaker. These recommenda-

tions are consistent with the independent

research by and recommendations of Wire-

less Technology Research.

Persons with pacemakers

• should ALWAYS keep the phone more

than six inches from their pacemaker

when the phone is turned ON;

• should not carry the phone in a breast

pocket;

• should use the ear opposite the pace-

maker to minimize the potential for in-

terference;

• should turn the phone OFF immediate-

ly if there is any reason to suspect that

interference is taking place.

Hearing aids

Some digital wireless phones may

interfere with some hearing aids. In the

event of such interference, you may want

to consult your service provider or your

hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alter-

natives.

Other medical devices

If you use any other personal medical de-

vices, consult the manufacturers of your

devices to determine if they are ade-

quately shielded from external RF energy.

Your physician may be able to assist you

in obtaining this information.

Turn your phone OFF in health care facili-

ties when any regulations posted in these

areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or

health care facilities may be using equip-

ment that could be sensitive to external

RF energy.

right page (7) of A71 FCC, LAM en, (23.08.2005, 08:53)

Safety precautions

VAR Language: en2; VAR issue date: 050331

Vehicles

RF signals may affect improperly installed

or inadequately shielded electronic sys-

tems in motor vehicles. Check with the

manufacturer or its representative regard-

ing your vehicle. You should also consult

the manufacturer of any equipment that

has been added to your vehicle.

Posted facilities

Turn your phone OFF in any facility where

posted notices so require.

Airplanes

FCC and Airline Regulations prohibit using

your phone while in the air. Turn your

phone OFF when requested by the airline.

Check and comply with the policy of your

airline regarding the use of your phone

while the airplane is on the ground.

Blasting areas

To avoid interfering with blasting opera-

tions, turn your phone OFF when in a

“blasting area” or in areas posted: “Turn

off two-way radio.” Obey all signs and in-

structions.

Potentially explosive atmospheres

Turn your phone OFF when in any area with

a potentially explosive atmosphere and

obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in

such areas could cause an explosion or fire

resulting in bodily injury or even death.

Areas with a potentially explosive atmo-

sphere are often but not always clearly

marked. They include: fueling areas such

as gasoline stations; below deck on boats;

fuel or chemical transfer or storage facili-

ties; vehicles using liquefied petroleum

gas (such as propane or butane); areas

where the air contains chemicals or parti-

cles, such as grain, dust or metal pow-

ders; and any other area where you

would normally be advised to turn off

your vehicle engine.

Emergency calls (SOS)

Your wireless phone can be used to make

emergency calls. You can make an emer-

gency call from the main display screen.

Enter the local emergency number such

as 911 and then press the Akey.

This phone, like any wireless phone, oper-

ates using radio signals, wireless and

landline networks, and user-pro-

grammed functions. Because of this, con-

nections in all conditions cannot be guar-

anteed. Therefore, you should never rely

solely on any wireless phone for essential

communications (for example, medical

emergencies). Remember – to make or

receive any calls, the phone must be

switched on and be used in a service area

that has adequate signal strength. Emer-

gency calls might not be possible on all

wireless phone networks or when certain

network services or phone features are in

use. Check with local service providers re-

garding their network features.

Always make certain that your phone is

properly charged before attempting any

emergency calls. If you allow your battery

to discharge, you will be unable to receive

or make calls, including emergency calls.

You must then wait a few minutes after

the charging begins to place any

emergency calls.

When making an emergency call,

remember to give all of the necessary in-

formation as accurately as possible. Re-

member that your wireless phone might

be the only means of communication at

the scene of an accident, therefore you

should not terminate the call until given

permission to do so.

and/or charging devices may cause explo-

sion resulting in serious injury and/or

property damage. Use original Siemens

accessories in order to avoid possible

injury and property damage and to

ensure compliance with applicable laws

and regulations. Improper use invalidates

the warranty.
