For example in aeroplanes, petrol stations, hos-pitals or while driving.Mobile phones can interfere with the functioning of medical devices such as hearing aids or pacemak-ers. 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 information consult your doctor.The ringtones, message tones and handsfree talking are reproduced through the loudspeaker. Do not hold the phone to your ear when it rings or when you have switched on the handsfree function. Otherwise you risk serious permanent damage to your hearing.Only use original Siemens batteries (100 % mercury-free) and – charg-ing devices. Otherwise you risk seri-ous damage to health and property. The battery could explode, for in-stance.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.

Unauthorized anten-nas, modifications, or attachments could damage the phone and may violate FCC regulations.Phone operationNormal positionHold the phone as you would any other telephone with the antenna pointed up and over your shoulder.Tips on efficient operationFor your phone to operate most efficiently:• Extend your antenna fully (if applicable).• Do not touch the antenna unnecessari-ly 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.DrivingLaws pertaining to the use of mobile phones while driving vary significantly from state to state and sometimes even from lo-cality 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 recommends 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 driving is permitted, Siemens encourages persons to use their Important:Please dispose of unwanted batter-ies and phones as permitted by the laws in your country.The phone may cause interference in the vicinity of TV sets, radios and PCs.Use only Siemens original accesso-ries. This will avoid potential risks to health or property and ensure com-pliance with all relevant regulations.Improper use will invalidate the guarantee!

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 mak-ing or answering a call, if driving condi-tions so require.For vehicles equipped with air bagsAn 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 deploy-ment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air bag in-flates, serious injury could result.Electronic devicesMost modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF) sig-nals. However, certain electronic equip-ment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your wireless phone.PacemakersThe Health Industry Manufacturers' Associ-ation recommends that a minimum separa-tion of six inches (6") be maintained be-tween a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommenda-tions are consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of Wire-less 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 pace-maker to minimize the potential for in-terference;• should turn the phone OFF immediate-ly 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 manufacturer to discuss alter-natives.Other medical devicesIf you use any other personal medical de-vices, consult the manufacturers of your devices to determine if they are ade-quately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.Turn your phone OFF in health care facili-ties when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equip-ment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.VehiclesRF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic sys-tems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative regard-ing your vehicle. You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.Posted facilitiesTurn your phone OFF in any facility where posted notices so require.AirplanesFCC 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.$

Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.Areas with a potentially explosive atmo-sphere 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 facili-ties; 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 pow-ders; 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 emer-gency call from the main display screen. Enter the local emergency number such as 911 and then press the A key.This phone, like any wireless phone, oper-ates using radio signals, wireless and landline networks, and user-pro-grammed functions. Because of this, con-nections in all conditions cannot be guar-anteed. Therefore, you should never rely solely on any wireless phone for essential communications (for example, medical emergencies). Remember – to make or receive any calls, the phone must be switched on and be used in a service area that has adequate signal strength. Emer-gency 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, remember to give all of the necessary in-formation as accurately as possible. Re-member 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 permission to do so.Batteries and ChargersOnly use original Siemens batteries (100% mercury-free) and charging devices. Use of non-Siemens batteries and/or charging devices may cause explo-sion 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 regulations. Improper use invalidates the warranty.Battery safety precautionsTo reduce the risk of fire, injury or electric shock, and to properly dispose of batter-ies, please read and understand the fol-lowing instructions.

The suggestions below will help you to enjoy your phone for many years.• Protect your phone from moisture and humidity. Precipitation, humidity and liquids contain min-erals that will corrode electronic circuits. Never-theless, should your phone become wet, disconnect it immediately from the power sup-ply to avoid electric shock. Do not place your phone (even to dry it) on/in a source of heat such as a microwave oven, oven or radiator. The phone may become overheated and possi-bly explode.• Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty ar-eas. Its moving parts may be damaged and the casing may become deformed and discoloured.• Do not store your phone in hot environments (e.g. vehicle instrument panel in the summer). High temperatures can shorten the life of elec-tronic devices, damage batteries and warp or melt certain plastics. • Do not store your phone in cold environments. When the phone warms up again (to its normal ambient temperature), moisture can form inside the phone, which may damage electronic circuit boards. • Do not drop, knock or shake your phone. Rough handling can damage internal circuit boards!• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the phone!The suggestions given above apply equally to your phone, battery, charger and all accessories. If any of these parts is not working properly, obtain fast and reliable help at our service centres (p. 19).Battery quality statementThe capacity of your mobile phone battery will re-duce each time it is charged/emptied. Storage at too high or low temperatures will also result in a gradual capacity loss. As a result the operating time of your mobile phone may be considerably re-duced, even after a full recharge of the battery.Regardless of this, the battery has been designed and manufactured so that it can be recharged and used for six months after the purchase of your mo-bile phone. After six months, if the battery is clearly suffering from loss of performance, we recommend that your replace it. Please buy only Siemens original batteries.$

It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for ex-posure to radio frequency (RF) energy es-tablished by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Govern-ment and by Health Canada. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines were developed and confirmed by inde-pendent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of sci-entific studies*. The limits include a sub-stantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.The exposure standard for cell phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit established by the FCC and by Health Canada is 1.6 W/kg**. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operat-ing positions accepted by the FCC and by Industry Canada with the phone transmit-ting 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 sta-tion, the lower the power output. Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and the manufacturer must certify to the FCC and Industry Canada that it does not exceed the limit established by each government for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body), reported to the FCC and available for review by Industry Canada. The highest SAR value for this Siemens A75 when tested for use at the ear is0.45 W/kg***and when worn on the body+ is0.39 W/kg***Additional information on Specific Ab-sorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications Internet As-sociation (CTIA) web-site at www.phonefacts.net or the Canadian Wire-less Telecommunications Association (CWTA) website www.cwta.caSAR information on this Siemens A75 phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid.While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, all Siemens products meet the governmental requirements for safe RF exposure. + For body worn operation, this mobile phone has been tested and meets FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with a Siemens accesso-ry designated for this product, where available, or when used with a carry accessory that con-tains no metal and that positions the handset at least 1.0 cm/0.39 inch is the correct testing dis-tance from the body.

The fol-lowing summarizes what is know – and what remains unknown – about whether these products can pose a hazard to health, and what can be done to mini-mize any potential risk. This information may be used to respond to questions.Why the concern?Mobile phones emit low levels of radio frequency energy (i.e., radio frequency radiation) in the microwave range while being used. They also emit very low levels of radio frequency energy (RF), consid-ered non-significant, when in the stand-by mode. It is well known that high levels of RF can produce biological damage through heating effects (this is how your microwave oven is able to cook food). However, it is not known whether, to what extent, or through what mecha-nism, lower levels of RF might cause ad-verse health effects as well. Although some research has been done to address these questions, no clear picture of the bi-ological effects of this type of radiation has emerged to date. Thus, the available science does not allow us to conclude that mobile phones are absolutely safe, or that they are unsafe. However, the avail-able scientific evidence does not demon-strate adverse health effects associated with the use of mobile phones.What kinds of phones are in question?Questions have been raised about hand-held mobile phones, the kind that have a built-in antenna that is positioned close to the user's head during normal tele-phone conversation. These types of mo-bile phones are of concern because of the short distance between the phone's an-tenna – the primary source of the RF – and the person's head. The exposure to RF from mobile phones in which the an-tenna is located at greater distances from the user (on the outside of a car, for ex-ample) is drastically lower than that from hand-held phones, because a person's RF exposure decreases rapidly with distance from the source. The safety of so-called “cordless phones,” which have a base unit connected to the telephone wiring in a house and which operate at far lower power levels and frequencies, has not been questioned.How much evidence is there that hand-held mo-bile phones might be harmful?Briefly, there is not enough evidence to know for sure, either way; however, re-search efforts are on-going. The existing scientific evidence is conflicting and many of the studies that have been done to date have suffered from flaws in their research methods. Animal experiments investigating the effects of RF exposures characteristic of mobile phones have yielded conflicting results. A few animal studies, however, have suggested that low levels of RF could accelerate the de-velopment of cancer in laboratory ani-mals. In one study, mice genetically al-tered to be predisposed to developing one type of cancer developed more than twice as many such cancers when they were exposed to RF energy compared to controls. There is much uncertainty among scientists about whether results obtained from animal studies apply to the use of mobile phones. First, it is uncertain how to apply the results obtained in rats and mice to humans. Second, many of the studies showed increased tumor de-$

This research has resulted in two findings in particular that merit addi-tional study:1. In a hospital-based, case-control study, researchers looked for an association be-tween mobile phone use and either glio-ma (a type of brain cancer) or acoustic neuroma (a benign tumor of the nerve sheath). No statistically significant associ-ation was found between mobile phone use and acoustic neuroma. There was also no association between mobile phone use and gliomas when all types of gliomas were considered together. It should be noted that the average length of mobile phone exposure in this study was less than three years.When 20 types of glioma were considered separately, however, an association was found between mobile phone use and one rare type of glioma, neuroepithel-liomatous tumors. It is possible with mul-tiple comparisons of the same sample that this association occurred by chance. Moreover, the risk did not increase with how often the mobile phone was used, or the length of the calls. In fact, the risk ac-tually decreased with cumulative hours of mobile phone use. Most cancer causing agents increase risk with increased expo-sure. An ongoing study of brain cancers by the National Cancer Institute is expect-ed to bear on the accuracy and repeat-ability of these results.12. Researchers conducted a large battery of laboratory tests to assess the effects of exposure to mobile phone RF on genetic material. These included tests for several kinds of abnormalities, including muta-tions, chromosomal aberrations, DNA strand breaks, and structural changes in the genetic material of blood cells called lymphocytes. None of the tests showed any effect of the RF except for the micro-nucleus assay, which detects structural ef-fects on the genetic material. The cells in this assay showed changes after exposure to simulated cell phone radiation, but only after 24 hours of exposure. It is pos-sible that exposing the test cells to radia-tion for this long resulted in heating. Since this assay is known to be sensitive to heating, heat alone could have caused the abnormalities to occur. The data al-ready in the literature on the response of the micronucleus assay to RF are conflict-ing. Thus follow-up research is necessary.2FDA is currently working with govern-ment, industry, and academic groups to ensure the proper follow-up to these in-dustry-funded research findings. Collabo-ration with the Cellular Telecommunica-tions Industry Association (CTIA) in particular is expected to lead to FDA pro-viding research recommendations and sci-entific oversight of new CTIA-funded re-search based on such recommendations.Two other studies of interest have been reported recently in the literature:• Two groups of 18 people were exposed to simulated mobile phone signals un-der laboratory conditions while they performed cognitive function tests. There were no changes in the subjects' ability to recall words, numbers, or pic-tures, or in their spatial memory, but they were able to make choices more quickly in one visual test when they were exposed to simulated mobile phone signals. This was the only change noted among more than 20 variables compared.3• In a study of 209 brain tumor cases and 425 matched controls, there was no in-creased risk of brain tumors associated with mobile phone use. When tumors did exist in certain locations, however,$

Because this occurred in only a small number of cases, the increased likelihood was too small to be statisti-cally significant.4In summary, we do not have enough in-formation at this point to assure the pub-lic that there are, or are not, any low inci-dent health problems associated with use of mobile phones. FDA continues to work with all parties, including other federal agencies and industry, to assure that re-search is undertaken to provide the nec-essary answers to the outstanding ques-tions about the safety of mobile phones.What is known about cases of human cancer that have been reported in users of hand-held mobile phones?Some people who have used mobile phones have been diagnosed with brain cancer. But it is important to understand that this type of cancer also occurs among people who have not used mobile phones. In fact, brain cancer occurs in the U.S. population at a rate of about 6 new cases per 100,000 people each year. At that rate, assuming 80 million users of mobile phones (a number increasing at a rate of about 1 million per month), about 4800 cases of brain cancer would be ex-pected each year among those 80 million people, whether or not they used their phones. Thus it is not possible to tell whether any individual's cancer arose be-cause of the phone, or whether it would have happened anyway. A key question is whether the risk of getting a particular form of cancer is greater among people who use mobile phones than among the rest of the population. One way to an-swer that question is to compare the us-age of mobile phones among people with brain cancer with the use of mobile phones among appropriately matched people without brain cancer. This is called a case-control study. The current case-control study of brain cancers by the Na-tional Cancer Institute, as well as the fol-low-up research to be sponsored by in-dustry, will begin to generate this type of information.What is FDA's role concerning the safety of mobile phones?Under the law, FDA does not review the safety of radiation emitting consumer products such as mobile phones before marketing, as it does with new drugs or medical devices. However, the agency has authority to take action if mobile phones are shown to emit radiation at a level that is hazardous to the user. In such a case, FDA could require the manufactur-ers of mobile phones to notify users of the health hazard and to repair, replace or recall the phones so that the hazard no longer exists. Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA regulatory actions at this time, FDA has urged the mobile phone in-dustry to take a number of steps to assure public safety. The agency has recom-mended that the industry:• Support needed research into possible biological effects of RF of the type emit-ted by mobile phones;• Design mobile phones in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to the user that is not necessary for device func-tion; and• Cooperate in providing mobile phone users with the best possible informa-tion on what is known about possible effects of mobile phone use on human health.• At the same time, FDA belongs to an in-teragency working group of the federal agencies that have responsibility for different aspects of mobile phone safe-ty to ensure a coordinated effort at the federal level. These agencies are:• National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health• Environmental Protection Agency• Federal Communications Commission$

But if people are concerned about avoiding even po-tential risks, there are simple steps they can take to do so. For example, time is a key factor in how much exposure a per-son receives. Those persons who spend long periods of time on their hand-held mobile phones could consider holding lengthy conversations on conventional phones and reserving the hand-held models for shorter conversations or for situations when other types of phones are not available.People who must conduct extended con-versations in their cars every day could switch to a type of mobile phone that plac-es more distance between their bodies and the source of the RF, since the expo-sure level drops off dramatically with dis-tance. For example, they could switch to:• a mobile phone in which the antenna is located outside the vehicle,• a hand-held phone with a built-in an-tenna connected to a different antenna mounted on the outside of the car or built into a separate package, or• a headset with a remote antenna to a mobile phone carried at the waist.Where can I find additional information?For additional information, see the fol-lowing websites:• Federal Communications Commission (FCC) RF Safety Program (select “Infor-mation on Human Exposure to RF Fields from Cellular and PCS Radio Transmitters”): www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety• World Health Organization (WHO) In-ternational Commission on Non-Ioniz-ing Radiation Protection (select Qs & As): www.who.int/emf• United Kingdom, National Radiological Protection Board: www.nrpb.org.uk• Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA): www.wow-com.com• U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Center for devices and Radiolog-ical Health: www.fda.gov/cdhr/consumer/1 Muscat et al.

But an impor-tant responsibility accompanies the bene-fits of wireless phones, one that every user must uphold.When driving a car, driving is your first re-sponsibility. When using your wireless phone behind the wheel of a car, practice good common sense and remember the following tips:Get to know your phone and its features such as speed dial and redial.Carefully read your instruction manual and learn to take advantage of valuable features most phones offer including, au-tomatic redial and memory dial – most phones can store up to 99 numbers in memory dial. Also, work to memorize the phone keypad so you can use the speed dial function without taking your atten-tion off the road.When available, use a hands-free device.A number of hands-free wireless phone accessories are readily available today. Whether you choose an installed mount-ed device for your phone or a speaker phone accessory, take advantage of these devices if they are available to you.Position your phone within easy reach.Make sure you place your wireless phone within easy reach and where you can grab it without removing your eyes from the road. If you get an incoming call at an inconvenient time, let your voicemail an-swer it for you.Suspend conversations during hazardous driv-ing conditions or situations.Let the person you are speaking to know you are driving; if necessary, suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions. Rain, sleet, snow and ice can be hazardous, but so is heavy traffic. As a driver, your first responsibility is to pay at-tention to the road.Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving.If you are reading an address book or business card while driving a car, or writ-ing a “to do” list, then you are not watch-ing where you are going. It’s common sense. Don’t get caught in a dangerous situation because you are reading or writ-ing and not paying attention to the road or nearby vehicles.Dial sensibly and assess the traffic.If possible, place calls when you are not moving or before pulling into traffic. Try to plan your calls before you begin your trip, or attempt to coincide your calls with times you may be stopped at a stop sign, red light or otherwise stationary. But if you need to dial while driving, follow this sim-ple tip – dial only a few numbers, check the road and your mirrors, then continue.Do not engage in stressful or emotional conver-sations that may be distracting.Stressful or emotional conversations and driving do not mix – they are distracting and even dangerous when you are be-hind the wheel. Make people you are talk-ing with aware you are driving and if nec-essary, suspend phone conversations that have the potential to divert your attention from the road.Use your phone to call for help.Your wireless phone is one of the greatest tools you can own to protect yourself and your family in dangerous situations – with your phone at your side, help is only three numbers away. Dial 9-1-1 in the case of fire, traffic accident, road hazard, or medical emergency. Remember, it is a free call on your wireless phone.$

If you see an auto ac-cident, crime in progress or other serious emergencies where lives are in danger, call 9-1-1, as you would want others to do for you.Call roadside assistance or a special wireless non-emergency assistance number when nec-essary.Certain situations you encounter while driving may require attention, but are not urgent enough to merit a call to 9-1-1. But you can still use your wireless phone to lend a hand. If you see a broken-down vehicle posing no serious hazard, a bro-ken traffic signal, a minor traffic accident where no one appears injured, or a vehi-cle you know to be stolen, call roadside assistance or other special non-emergen-cy wireless numbers.Provided by the Cellular Telecommunications In-dustry Association (CTIA)“The wireless industry reminds you to use your phone safely when driving.”For more information, please call 1 (888) 901-SAFE, or visit our Web site at: www.wow-com.com$
