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, hospi-
tals or while driving.
Mobile phones can interfere with the
functioning of medical devices such
as hearing aids or pacemakers. Keep
at least 20 cm between phone and
pacemaker. When using the mobile
phone hold it to the ear which is fur-
ther away from the pacemaker. For
more information consult your doctor.
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.
Permanent hearing loss may occur if
you use ear- or headphones at high
volume.You can adapt over time to a
higher volume, which may sound nor-
mal but can be damaging to your
hearing. Set your volume to a safe
level. If you experience ringing in
your ears, reduce the volume or dis-
continue use of your system.
Only use original batteries (100 %
mercury-free) and – charging devic-
es. Otherwise you risk serious dam-
age to health and property. The
battery could explode, for instance.
The mains voltage specified on the
power supply unit (V) must not be ex-
ceeded. Otherwise the charging de-
vice may be destroyed.
The power supply must be plugged
into an easily accessible AC mains
power socket when charging the bat-
tery. The only way to turn off the
charging device after charging the
battery is to unplug it.
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.
Tones, music 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 func-
tion. Otherwise you risk serious per-
manent damage to your hearing.
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 circumstances.
All other changes to this device are
strictly prohibited and will invalidate
the guarantee.
Please dispose of unwanted batteries
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 original accessories. This
will avoid potential risks to health or
property and ensure compliance with
all relevant regulations.
Improper use will invalidate the guarantee!
These safety instructions also apply to
original accessories.

Getting started
Using the SIM card/battery
Your phone's display is delivered with
a protective film. Remove this film before
getting started. The service provider sup-
plies you with a SIM card on which all the
important data for your account is stored.
If the SIM card is credit card-sized, snap
out the smaller segment and trim any
rough edges.
Always switch off phone before removing
the battery!
Only 3V and 1.8V SIM cards are support-
ed. Please contact your service provider if
you have an older card.
Release and open battery cover
Remove battery
Release and open SIM card holder, insert SIM
card, and close holder
Insert battery and close cover
Charge battery
The battery is not fully charged when de-
livered. Plug charger cable into the bot-
tom of the phone, plug power supply unit
into a mains power socket and charge for
at least two hours. The power supply unit
heats up when used for long periods. This
is normal and not dangerous.
When charging is in progress his
displayed.
Charging time
An empty battery is fully charged after
about 2 hours. Charging is only possible
within a temperature range of
+5 °C to +40 °C. If the temperature rises/
falls 5 °C above/below this, the charge
symbol flashes a warning. The mains
voltage specified on the power supply
unit must not be exceeded (Operating
time, p. 11).
Charge level display during operation
(empty - full): adg.
A beep sounds when the battery is nearly
empty. The charge level of the battery is
only displayed correctly after an uninter-
rupted charging/discharging cycle. You
should therefore not remove the battery
unnecessarily and where possible not
terminate the charging process early.

Care and maintenance
Your phone has been designed and manufactured
to the highest of standards and should be treated
with great care. The suggestions below will help
you to enjoy your phone for many years.
• Protect your phone from moisture and humidity.
Precipitation, humidity and liquids contain min-
erals that will corrode electronic circuits. Never-
theless, should your phone become wet,
disconnect it immediately from the power sup-
ply to avoid electric shock. Do not place your
phone (even to dry it) on/in a source of heat
such as a microwave oven, oven or radiator.
The phone may become overheated and
possibly explode.
• Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty ar-
eas. Its moving parts may be damaged and the
casing may become deformed and discoloured.
• Do not store your phone in hot environments
(e.g. vehicle instrument panel in the summer).
High temperatures can shorten the life of elec-
tronic devices, damage batteries and warp or
melt certain plastics.
• Do not store your phone in cold environments.
When the phone warms up again (to its normal
ambient temperature), moisture can form inside
the phone, which may damage electronic circuit
boards.
• Do not drop, knock or shake your phone. Rough
handling can damage internal circuit boards!
• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents,
or strong detergents to clean the phone!
The suggestions given above apply equally to your
phone, battery, charger and all accessories. If any
of these parts is not working properly, obtain fast
and reliable help at our service centres.
Battery quality statement
The capacity of your mobile phone battery will re-
duce each time it is charged/emptied. Storage at
too high or low temperatures will also result in a
graduly capacity loss. As a result the operating
time of your mobile phone may be considerably
reduced, evan after a rull recharge of the battery.
Regardless of this, the battery has been designed
and manufactured so that it can be recharged and
used for six months after the purchase of your mo-
bile phone. After six months, if the battery is clearly
suffering from loss of performance, we recommend
that your replace it. Please buy only original
batteries.
Display quality declaration
For technological reasons, a few small dots with
different colours may appear in the display in ex-
ceptional cases.
Just remember that the appearance of brighter or
darker dots generally does not mean that a fault
has occurred.

SAR
European Union (RTTE) and international
(ICNIRP)
INFORMATION ON RF EXPOSURE / SPECIFIC
ABSORPTION RATE (SAR)
THIS MODEL MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDE-
LINES FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and re-
ceiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits for ex-
posure to radio waves recommended by
international guidelines. These guidelines were de-
veloped by the independent scientific organization
ICNIRP and include safety margins designed to as-
sure the protection of all persons, regardless of age
and health.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement known
as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR
limit for mobile devices is 2 W/kg and was adopted
into the European Standard EN 50360 and into
other national standards. The CE mark demon-
strates that the EU requirements are met.
The highest SAR value for this device when tested
at the ear was 0.87 W/kg1. As mobile devices offer
a range of functions, they can be used in positions
other than the head, such as directly on the body.
In this case, the limits are met too.
As SAR is measured utilizing the device's highest
transmitting power, the actual SAR of this device
while operating is typically below that indicated
above. This is due to automatic changes to the
power level of the device to ensure it only uses the
minimum level required to reach the network.
The World Health Organization has stated that
present scientific information does not indicate the
need for any special precautions for the use of mo-
bile devices. They note that if you nevertheless
want to reduce your exposure then you can do so
by limiting the length of calls or using a 'hands-free'
device to keep the mobile phone away from the
head and body.
Additional Information can be found on the web-
sites of the World Health Organization
(www.who.int/emf) or BenQ Mobile
(www.BenQMobile.com).
