Safety pre-
cautions NOTE:
Review these operating instructions and
safety precautions carefully before use.
Do not use mobile phone in hos-
pitals or in the vicinity of medical
devices, such as pacemakers or
hearing aids. Mobile phones
may interfere with the operation
of these devices. Keep a mini-
mum distance of 6–8" between
pacemaker and mobile phone.
When using the mobile phone
hold it to the ear farthest from
the pacemaker.
Always use the handsfree kit to
make calls while driving
(p. 131).
Turn off mobile phone while
aboard any aircraft. To prevent
accidental activation, see (p. 92).
Do not use mobile phone near
gas stations, fuel depots, chem-
ical plants or blasting opera-
tions. Mobile phones may cause
interference with the operation
of technical installations.
The ring tone and hands-free
speaker are reproduced through
the earpiece. Never hold the
handset to your ear when the
handset is ringing or when using
the hands-free speaker mode.
Serious and permanent damage
could occur to your hearing!
Caution! SIM card may be
removed. Small parts could be
swallowed by children.
Do not exceed the mains volt-
age (V) specified on the power
supply unit.
Do not use an optical magnifier
to look at the activated infrared
interface [Class 1 LED product
(classification as per
IEC 60825-1)].
Only use original Siemens bat-
teries (100% mercury-free) and
charging devices. Use of non-
Siemens batteries and/or charg-
ing devices may cause explo-
sion resulting in serious injury or
property damage.
It is recommended that you
open the phone only to replace
the battery (100% mercury-free)
or SIM card. Do not open the
battery under any circum-
stances. Any other changes to
this device may invalidate the
FCC authorization required for
operation of the unit, and are
strictly prohibited.
Dispose of used batteries and
phones in accordance with
applicable laws and safety regu-
lations.

Mobile phones may interfere
with the operation of nearby
TVs, radios or PCs.
For body worn operation, this
mobile phone has been tested
and meets FCC RF exposure
guidelines when used with a
carry accessory that contains no
metal and that positions the
handset at least 0.001 cm from
the body. Use of other carry
accessories may not ensure
compliance with FCC RF expo-
sure guidelines.
Only use original Siemens
accessories in order to avoid
possible injury and property
damage and to ensure compli-
ance with applicable laws and
regulations.
Improper use invalidates the warranty!
