Network Services
A number of features included in this
guide are called Network Services.
They are special services provided by
wireless service providers. In order
to use any of these Network Servic-
es, you must subscribe to these serv-
ice(s) from your service provider and
obtain instructions for their use.
Some of these Network Services may
not be available when roaming on a
network other than your home net-
work.
Standby and
Talk Time Information
The mobile phone incorporates fea-
tures that are new to the mobile
phone world. These may include
color displays and lighting, graphic
games, music reproduction and
browsing the Internet. The way you
use the display and the features will
affect the performance of the bat-
tery and how long it lasts between
charge cycles. The quoted standby
times and talk times show the mini-
mum and maximum performance
that can be expected from the bat-
tery under normal network condi-
tions and with the default settings as
set by the factory. However, playing
games (particularly with the back-
light 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,
charging and battery condition, how
you use your phone and other fac-
tors.
Memory
The mobile phone contains an inter-
nal memory device that stores the
software required to operate the
mobile phone, communicate with
the GSM/GPRS network and provide
the user interface. Some features in
the internal memory run additional
devices and some additional games
and utilities. The amount of memory
available in the mobile phone is fi-
nite and may be insufficient to store
large numbers of applications and
files.
Warning!
Remember to back up your data and to do
so frequently. Always back up all data and
programs before sending the mobile phone
in for repair.

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
requirements and local restric-
tions when using the phone.
For example in aeroplanes,
petrol stations, hospitals or
while driving.
Cellular phones can interfere
with the functioning of medical
devices such as hearing aids or
pacemakers. Keep at least
9 inches (20 cm) between
phone and pacemaker. When
using the cell phone hold it to
the ear which is farthest from
the pacemaker. For more infor-
mation consult your doctor.
The ringtone, info tones and
speakerphone talking are re-
produced through the loud-
speaker. Do not hold the phone
to your ear when it rings or
when you have switched on the
speakerphone function. Other-
wise you risk serious, perma-
nent damage to your hearing.
Only use original Siemens bat-
teries (100% mercury-free) and
– charging devices. Otherwise
you risk serious damage to
health and property. The bat-
tery could explode, for instance.
Small parts such as the SIM
card, sealing stop, lens ring
and lens cap can be disman-
tled 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 de-
stroyed.
The power supply must be
plugged into an easily accessi-
ble AC mains power socket
when charging the battery. The
only way to turn off the charg-
ing device after charging the
battery is to unplug it.
Do not use a handheld while
driving.
Do not look at the LED (e.g. ac-
tivated infrared port, flash LED)
with optical magnifiers because
of the risk of radiation.
This product complies with
IEC/EN 60825-1 2 2Safety of
Laser Products2 for LED
Class 1M products; such prod-
ucts are safe under reasonably
foresee-able operating condi-
tions.

Template: X75, 140x105, Version 2.2; VAR Language: am; VAR issue date: 050718
Do not place the phone near to
electromagnetic data carriers
such as credit cards and floppy
disks. Information stored on
them could be lost.
You may only open the phone
to replace the battery (100%
mercury-free) or SIM card. You
must not open the battery un-
der any circumstances. All oth-
er changes to this device are
strictly prohibited and will inval-
idate the guarantee.
Important
Please dispose of unwanted
batteries and phones as per-
mitted by the laws in your
country.
The phone may cause interfer-
ence in the vicinity of TV sets,
radios and PCs.
Use only Siemens original ac-
cessories. This will avoid po-
tential risks to health or
property and ensure compli-
ance with all relevant
regulations.
Improper use will invalidate the guarantee!
These safety instructions also apply to
Siemens original accessories.
This cellular phone offers a range of func-
tions, it can be used in positions other than
the head, such as on the body. In this case,
separation distance of 2.0 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 de-
vice the above-stated distance from your
body.

Template: X75, 140x105, Version 2.2; VAR Language: am; VAR issue date: 050718
Antenna care
Use only the supplied or an approved
replacement antenna. Unauthorized
antennas, modifications, or attach-
ments 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 unnec-
essarily when the phone is in use.
Contact with the antenna affects
call quality and may cause the
phone to operate at a higher pow-
er level than otherwise needed.
Driving
Laws pertaining to the use of mobile
phones while driving vary signifi-
cantly from state to state and some-
times even from locality to locality
within states. For example, some ar-
eas 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 rec-
ommends 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 driv-
ing is permitted, Siemens encourag-
es persons to use their phones re-
sponsibly 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
making or answering a call, if
driving conditions so require.
Important
Read this information before using
your wireless handheld phone.
As this mobile phone is equipped
with a fixed (non-retractable) an-
tenna, some paragraphs in the text
below may not be applicable.

For vehicles equipped with
air bags
An air bag inflates with great force.
DO NOT place objects, including ei-
ther installed or portable wireless
equipment, in the area over the air
bag or in the air bag deployment ar-
ea. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is
improperly installed and the air bag
inflates, serious injury could result.
Electronic devices
Most modern electronic equipment
is shielded from radio frequency (RF)
signals. However, certain electronic
equipment may not be shielded
against the RF signals from your
wireless phone.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers'
Association recommends that a min-
imum separation of six inches (6")
be maintained between a handheld
wireless phone and a pacemaker to
avoid potential interference with the
pacemaker. These recommenda-
tions are consistent with the inde-
pendent research by and recommen-
dations of Wireless 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
pacemaker to minimize the poten-
tial for interference;
• should turn the phone OFF imme-
diately if there is any reason to
suspect that interference is taking
place.
Hearing aids
Some digital wireless phones may in-
terfere with some hearing aids. In
the event of such interference, you
may want to consult your service
provider or your hearing aid manu-
facturer to discuss alternatives.
Other medical devices
If you use any other personal medi-
cal devices, consult the manufactur-
ers of your devices to determine if
they are adequately shielded from
external RF energy. Your physician
may be able to assist you in obtain-
ing this information.
Turn your phone OFF in health care
facilities when any regulations post-
ed in these areas instruct you to do
so. Hospitals or health care facilities
may be using equipment that could
be sensitive to external RF energy.

Template: X75, 140x105, Version 2.2; VAR Language: am; VAR issue date: 050718
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly
installed or inadequately shielded
electronic systems in motor vehicles.
Check with the manufacturer or its
representative regarding your vehi-
cle. 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 request-
ed 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 op-
erations, turn your phone OFF when
in a “blasting area” or in areas post-
ed: “Turn off two-way radio.” Obey
all signs and instructions.
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 at-
mosphere are often but not always
clearly marked. They include: fueling
areas such as gasoline stations; be-
low deck on boats; fuel or chemical
transfer or storage facilities; 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
powders; 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 emergency 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,
operates using radio signals, wire-
less and landline networks, and user-
programmed functions. Because of
this, connections in all conditions

cannot be guaranteed. Therefore,
you should never rely solely on any
wireless phone for essential commu-
nications (for example, medical
emergencies). Remember – to make
or receive any calls, the phone must
be switched on and be used in a serv-
ice area that has adequate signal
strength. Emergency 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, re-
member to give all of the necessary
information as accurately as possi-
ble. Remember 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 permis-
sion to do so.
Batteries and Chargers
Only use original Siemens batteries
(100% mercury-free) and charging
devices. Use of non-Siemens batter-
ies and/or charging devices may
cause explosion 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 regula-
tions. Improper use invalidates the
warranty.
Battery safety precautions
To reduce the risk of fire, injury or
electric shock, and to properly dis-
pose of batteries, please read and
understand the following instruc-
tions. CONTAINS LITHIUM-ION OR
NICKEL-METAL HYDRIDE BATTERY.

Charge icon not visible
If the battery has been discharged
fully, the charge icon is not immedi-
ately visible when the power supply
is plugged in. It will appear after up
to two hours. In this case the battery
is fully charged after 3 to 4 hours.
Only use the plug-in power supply
included in delivery!
Display while in service
Charge level display during opera-
tion (empty–full):
VWX
A beep sounds when the battery is
nearly empty. The charge level of the
battery is only displayed correctly af-
ter an uninterrupted charging/dis-
charging cycle. You should therefore
not remove the battery unnecessarily
and where possible not finish the
charging process prematurely.
Additional information
The power supply unit heats up when used
for long periods. This is normal and not
dangerous.
If the battery is removed for longer than
30 seconds, the clock must be reset.
