agencies or authorities, and may not
export, or transfer for the purpose of
re-export, the mobile phone or any
part of the phone in violation of any
applicable restrictions, laws or regu-
lations, or without all necessary
approvals.
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 Ser-
vices, you must subscribe to these
service(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
finite 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
Please read the operating instructions and safety precautions carefully before use.
Information for parents
Explain the content and the hazards associated with using the phone to your children.
Remember to comply with
legal requirements and local
restrictions when using the
phone. For example, in air-
planes, gas stations, hospitals
or while driving.
Cellular phones can interfere
with the functioning of medical
devices such as hearing aids
or pacemakers. Keep at least
8 inches (21 cm) between
phone and pacemaker. When
using the cell phone hold it to
the ear which is farthest from the
pacemaker. For more information
consult your doctor.
The SIM card may be removed.
Caution! Small parts like this
could be swallowed by young
children.

driving.
The ringtone (p. 43), info tones
(p. 43) and speakerphone talk-
ing are reproduced through the
loudspeaker. Do not hold the
phone to your ear when it rings
or when you have switched on
the speakerphone function
(p. 25). Otherwise you risk seri-
ous, permanent damage to your
hearing.
Use only original Siemens bat-
teries (100% mercury-free) and
charging devices. Otherwise
you risk serious damage to
health and property: The battery
may explode, for instance.
Do not open the phone. Only the
battery (100% mercury-free) or
SIM card may be replaced. You
must not open the battery under
any circumstances. Any other
changes to this device are
strictly prohibited, as they will
invalidate the type approval
required for operation of the unit.

fied by the laws in your country.
The phone may cause interfer-
ence close to TVs, radios and
PCs.

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
power 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
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 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 encour-
ages 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;
• 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)
antenna, 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
either installed or portable wireless
equipment, in the area over the air
bag or in the air bag deployment
area. If in-vehicle wireless equip-
ment 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 6 inches (21 cm)
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
interfere 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
posted in these areas instruct you to
do so. Hospitals or health care facili-

ties may be using equipment that
could be sensitive to external RF
energy.
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
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
operations, turn your phone OFF
when in a “blasting area” or in areas
posted: “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
atmosphere are often but not always
clearly marked. They include: fueling
areas such as gasoline stations;
below deck on boats; fuel or chemi-
cal transfer or storage facilities; vehi-
cles using liquefied petroleum gas
(such as propane or butane); areas
where the air contains chemicals or
particles, 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 ser-
vice 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
regarding 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 neces-
sary information as accurately as
possible. Remember that your wire-
less 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.
BATTERY MUST BE RECYCLED OR DIS-
POSED OF PROPERLY. DO NOT DIS-
POSE IN MUNICIPAL WASTE.
1. Only use the batteries specified
for use with this mobile phone.
2. Do not use batteries of different
sizes or from different manufac-
turers in this mobile phone.

3. Do not dispose of the battery in a
fire; it may explode. Dispose of
used batteries and phones in
accordance with applicable laws
and safety regulations. Do not
expose battery to water. Check
with local codes for special dis-
posal instructions.
4. Do not open or mutilate the bat-
tery. Doing so may cause damage
to the eyes or skin.
5. Exercise care in handling the bat-
tery in order not to short the bat-
tery with conducting materials
such as rings, bracelets, and keys.
The battery or conducting mate-
rial may overheat and cause burns
or fire.
6. Charge the battery provided with,
or identified for use with, this
product only in accordance with
the instructions and limitations

The battery is not fully charged
when delivered. Plug charger cable
into the bottom of the phone, plug
power supply unit into a mains
power socket and charge for at least
two hours.
Display when charging is in progress:
hDuring charging.
If Dynamic Light is activated for
Charging (page 47) the middle two
LEDs flash slowly to show that the
charging process is in progress.
When the battery is fully charged,
these LEDs switch off.
Charging time
An uncharged battery is fully
charged after about 2 hours. Charg-
ing is only possible within a tempera-
ture 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, page 71).
Charging and Discharging
Note that a new battery's full perfor-
mance is achieved only after two or
three complete charge and dis-
charge cycles. The operations times
provided are reasonable estimates
and may be affected by network con-
ditions, charging and phone usage.
The battery can be charged and dis-
charged hundreds of times but it will
eventually wear out. A noticeably
shorter operating time (talk-time
and standby time) may be an indica-
tion that the battery requires
replacement.
Use only Siemens batteries and
recharge your battery only with
Siemens chargers. When the charger
is not in use, disconnect it from the
power source. Do not leave the bat-
tery connected to a charger for
longer than a week, since overcharg-
ing may shorten its life. If left unused
a fully charged battery will discharge
itself over time.
If the battery is completely empty, it
may take a few minutes before you
can make or receive a call once you
plug the phone into a charger.
Temperature extremes will affect
the ability of your battery to charge:
allow it to cool down or warm up
first.
Note
Keep SIM cards out of reach of small chil-
dren. The SIM cards and its contacts are
easily damaged by scratching or bending,
so be careful when handling, inserting or
removing the SIM card.

Do not short circuit the battery. Acci-
dental short-circuiting can occur
when a metallic object (coin, clip or
pen) causes direct connection of the
+ and – terminals of the battery
(metal strips on the back of the bat-
tery) for example when you carry a
spare battery in your pocket or
purse. Short-circuiting the terminals
may damage the battery or the con-
necting object.
Leaving the battery in hot or cold
places, such as in a closed car in sum-
mer or winter conditions, will reduce
the capacity and lifetime of the bat-
tery. Always try to keep the battery
between 15 °C and 25 °C (59 °F and
77 °F). A phone with a hot or cold
battery may be temporarily inopera-
ble, even when the battery is fully
charged.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire!
Explosion may result.
Batteries must be disposed of prop-
erly. Comply with all local laws or
regulations in disposing of your
battery.
Charge icon not visible
If the battery has been fully dis-
charged, the charge icon is not
immediately visible when the power
supply unit is plugged in. It will
appear after up to two hours. In this
case the battery, is fully charged
after 3–4 hours.
Only use the power supply unit provided!
Display while in service
Charge level display during opera-
tion (empty – full):
adg
A beep sounds when the battery is
nearly discharged. The charge level
of the battery is only displayed cor-
rectly after an uninterrupted charg-
ing/discharging cycle. You should
therefore not remove the battery unnec-
essarily and if possible not terminate
the charging process early.
Note
Use the battery only for its intended
purpose.
Never use any charger or battery that is
damaged or worn out.
Additional information
The power supply unit heats up when it is
used for long periods. This is normal and
not dangerous.
If the battery is removed for longer than
30 seconds, the clock will be reset.
