Safety precautions2
VAR Language: en; VAR issue date: 040929
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.
Mobile phones can interfere
with the functioning of medical
devices such as hearing aids or
pacemakers. 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 infor-
mation 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.
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 accessi-
ble 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.
The ringtone (page 44), info
tones 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 (page 20).
Otherwise you risk serious per-
manent damage to your
hearing.
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. Otherwise
you risk serious damage to
health and property. The battery
could explode, for instance.
You may only open the phone to
replace the battery (100 % mer-
cury-free) or SIM card. You
must not open the battery under
any circumstances. All other
changes to this device are strict-
ly prohibited and will invalidate
the guarantee.

3Safety precautions
VAR Language: en; VAR issue date: 040929
Important:
Please dispose of unwanted
batteries and phones as permit-
ted 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 poten-
tial risks to health or property
and ensure compliance with all
relevant regulations.
Improper use will invalidate the guarantee!
These safety instructions also apply to
Siemens original accessories.
Improved data transmission
In order for your phone to be able to trans-
mit data at higher speeds, it is necessary to
have a good connection to the network.
Transmitting data can be delayed by the
process of establishing a connection. To
comply with guidelines on the effects of ra-
dio waves, you should keep the phone a
distance of 22 mm from your body while
transmitting data.

fered corner is in the correct posi-
tion.) Press the metal clip over the

cable into the bottom of the phone
9, plug the power supply unit into a
mains power socket and charge for
at least two hours.
Charging time
A flat battery is fully charged after
about 3 hours. Charging is only possi-
ble within a temperature range of
0 °C to 45 °C. If the temperature ris-
es/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.
Additional information
Please switch off your phone before re-
moving the battery!
Only 3-V SIM cards are supported. Please
contact your service provider if you have an
older card.

11Getting started
VAR Language: en; VAR issue date: 040929
Operating time
The operating time depends upon
the conditions of use. Extreme tem-
peratures considerably reduce the
phone’s standby time. Avoid placing
the phone in the sun or on a heater.
Talktime: 140 to 400 minutes
Standby time: 160 to 400 hours
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 with two
hours. In this case the battery is fully
charged after 3 to 5 hours.
Only use the power supply unit included
in the delivery!
Display while in use
Charge level display during opera-
tion (flat-fully charged):
VWX
A beep sounds when the battery is
nearly flat. The charge level of the
battery is only displayed correctly
after an uninterrupted charging/
discharging cycle. You should
therefore not remove the battery unnec-
essarily 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.
