Use of your phone is subject to safety rules designed
to protect the user and his or her environment.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Signals
•Your wireless handheld portable phone is a low
power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it
receives and also sends out frequency (RF) signals.
•In August, 1996, the Federal Communications
Commissions (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines
with safety levels for handheld wireless phones.
Those guidelines are consistent with the safety
standards previously set by both U.S. and
international standards bodies:
ANSI C95.1 (1992)*
NCPR Report 86 (1986)*
ICNIRP (1996)*
(*) American National Standards Institute; National
Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements;
International Commission and Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection.
•Those standards were based on comprehensive and
periodic evaluations of the relevant scientific
literature. For example, over 120 scientists,
engineers, and physicians from universities,
government health agencies, and industry reviewed
the available body of research to develop the ANSI
Standard (C95.1).
•The design of your phone complies with the FCC
guidelines (and those standards).

•For body worn operation, this phone has been tested
and meets FCC RF exposure guidelines when used
with an accessory that contains no metal and that
positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the
body.
Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance
with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
Phone Operation
•Normal position: hold the phone as you would any
other phone with the upper zone (back of the LCD
display) pointed up and over your shoulder.
•Tips on efficient operation: for your phone to operate
most efficiently: do not touch cover unnecessarily the
top part of the phone with your hand. This would
cover the integrated antenna and affect call quality
and may cause the phone to operate at a higher
power level than otherwise needed.
Driving
•Check the laws and regulations on the use of
wireless telephones in the areas where you drive.
Always obey them. Also, if using your phone while
driving while driving please:
- Give full attention of 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.

Electronic Devices
•Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from
RF signals. However, certain electronic equipment
may not be shielded against the RF signals from your
wireless phone.
•Some phone accessories allow to reduce the
radiation interferences of the phone. Please contact
your distributor.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association
recommends that a minimum separation of six (6”)
inches be maintained between a handheld wireless
phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference
with the pacemaker. These recommendations are
consistent with the independent research by and
recommendations 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 the breast pocket
•Should use the ear opposite to the pacemaker to
minimize the potential for interference
•If you have any reason to suspect that interference is
taking place, turn your phone OFF immediately.

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.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult
the manufacturer of your device to determine if they are
adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your
physician may be able to assist you in obtaining 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 facilities may be using
equipment that could be sensitive to sensitive 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 vehicle. 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.

Aircraft
FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while in the
air. Switch OFF your phone before boarding an aircraft.
Blasting Areas
To avoid any 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 chemical transfer or storage
facilities; vehicles 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.

For Vehicles equipped with Air Bag
An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT place
objects, including both installed or portable wireless
equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag
deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is
improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious
injury could result.
Electrical Safety
•Only us the appropriate chargers recommended in
the manufacturer’s catalog. Using another charger
may prove dangerous and could invalidate the
warranty of your phone.
•The main power socket should be easily accessible.
•Make sure that the main voltage corresponds to the
level marked on the charger identification plate.
General Precautions
•Do not try to open your phone and repair it yourself.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable for any
resulting damage.
•Any work done by an unqualified and unauthorized
person will invalidate your warranty.
•Do not use your phone in humid places (bathroom,
swimming pool, etc.). Protect it from splashing water
and other liquids.
•Do not expose your phone to extreme temperatures.

•Keep your phone out of reach of small children. Do
not allow them to play with it, it is not a toy.
•Only use your phone with original accessories.
Failure to comply with these rules will invalidate your
warranty.
•Remember to disconnect the charger before
removing the battery.
•The physical and chemical processes used in
rechargeable batteries mean that temperature limits
must be followed during rapid charging. Your terminal
automatically protects the batteries from extreme
temperatures.
•If the phone is disconnected from the battery for an
extended period of time, it will lose the time and the
recorded voice messages.
Emergency Calls
IMPORTANT
•This phone, like any PCS phone, operates using
radio signals, PCS and landline networks, and user-
programmed functions. As a consequence a
connection in all conditions cannot be guaranteed.
Therefore you should never rely solely upon any PCS
phone for essential communications (e.g. medical
emergencies).
•To make or receive any calls, this phone must be
switched on and in service area with adequate PCS
signal strength. Emergency calls may not be possible
on all PCS networks or when certain network
services and/or phone features are in use. Check
with local Service Providers.

Getting started
Information on the SIM card
To use your phone, you have a small card called a SIM
card. In addition to all of the information necessary for
the network, this card contains other information that
you can modify:
• secret codes (PIN and PIN2 - Personal Identification
Number)
• directory
• mini-messages
• functioning of specific services.
Your phone is compatible with the different SIM cards
provided by the Operators.
It is compatible with SIM/WIM cards (cards which
contain in addition the WIM module (Wireless Identity
Module) which allows secured WAP communications).
SIM card
This card must be handled and stored with
care in order to avoid excessive stresses
or scratches that would damage it. If your
SIM card is lost, contact your Operator or
Service Provider immediately.
Note: Do not leave you SIM card within the
reach of small children.

Getting started
Charging the battery
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery. A
new battery must be charged for at least 4 hours before
it is used for the first time. It will reach its nominal
capacity after several usage cycles.
When your battery has run down, the phone displays it
and cuts out.
To recharge your battery:
Connect the charger to a wall outlet.
Connect the end of the charging cable to the bottom of
your phone.
The phone will start charging. The battery charging
indicator indicates the charge.
Charging stops by itself.
Unplug the cable.
It is possible that during charging, the battery may heat
up slightly; this is normal.
Warning
There is a risk of explosion if the battery
is incorrectly replaced or disposed of in
fire.
Do not short-circuit.
The battery does not contain any
components that can be changed by
you.
Do not attempt to open the battery
case.

This model phone meets the government's requirements
for exposure to radio waves.
Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It
is designed and manufactured not to exceed the limits for
exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the
Federal Communications Commission of the U.S.
Government. These limits are part of comprehensive
guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for
the general population. The guidelines are based on
standards that were developed by independent scientific
organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of
scientific studies. The standards include a substantial
safety margin designed to assure the safety of all
persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for mobile phones employs a unit
of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate,
or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg.* Tests
for SAR are conducted using standard operating
positions accepted by the FCC with the phone
transmitting at its highest certified power level in all
tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined
at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level
of the phone while operating can be well below the
maximum value. This is because the phone is designed
to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the
power required to reach the network. In general, the
closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the
lower the power output.
* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile
phones used by the public is 1.6 Watts/kilogram (W/kg)
averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard
incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give
additional protection for the public and to account for any
variations in measurements.
