2. GETTING
STARTED
Refer to this section to learn more about setting up the
PWG-500 before you start using it.
Inserting the SIM cards and battery
The PWG-500 supports dual SIM cards and the slots are
placed underneath the battery. One of the SIM cards is used
for activating and authenticating your GSM
account. The other SIM card can be used for Wi-Fi
authentication if required.
When you subscribe to a service provider, you are given
a SIM card. This card stores your phone number and entitles
you to additional services included with your subscription. Your
personal address book is also stored on the SIM card. The
SIM card lock protects your sub- scription from unauthorized
use.
Most SIM cards are locked at the time of purchase. If the SIM
card lock is on, you have to enter a PIN (Personal Identity
Number) each time you turn on the PWG-500. If you enter the
PIN incorrectly three times in succession, the SIM card is
blocked. To unblock the SIM card, you must enter the PUK
(Personal Unblocking Key). The net- work service provider
supplies the PIN and the PUK details.
Note: The SIM card lock only protects the subscription and
does not protect the PWG-500 from unauthorized use.
The PWG-500 is equipped with a rechargeable Li-ion battery
that can be charged using the supplied battery charger.

been set in the SOS numbers setting. You can save up
to three emergency numbers using the WIM applica- tion’s
configuration feature from your PC or PDA. See
“Config. Stat” on page 66.
To make an emergency call, do the following:
1. Press and hold the Volume up and Volume down
keys simultaneously for three seconds.
2. The first SOS number is dialed. If the call is answered,
the call gets established and you can have a voice
conversation with the called party.
One of the following may take place when a call does not
get established:
• If the call remains unanswered by the called party,
the second SOS number is dialed. If the second SOS
call also remains unanswered, the third SOS number is
dialed. If the call to the third number remains
unanswered, the emergency call operation is cancelled.
Repeat the same procedure to initiate the emergency
call again.
• If the GSM carrier service for the currently inserted
SIM card is unable to establish a call, then the sec- ond
SIM card is activated automatically. The PWG500 tries to make an outgoing call to the first SOS
number through the GSM carrier service for the second
SIM card. If the GSM carrier service is unable to
establish the call, the emergency call operation is
cancelled. Repeat the same procedure to initiate the
emergency call again.

RF exposure regulation (SAR)
This model phone meets the government’s requirements for
exposure to radio waves. This phone is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for expo- sure to
radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications
Commission of the U.S. Government.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a
unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate,
or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC
is 1.6W/kg.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating
positions accepted by the FCC with the phone transmit- ting at
its highest certified power level in all tested fre- quency 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.The highest SAR value for
the model phone as reported to the FCC when tested for use
at the ear is 0.091 W/kg and when worn on the body, as
described in this user guide, is 0.218 W/ kg.(Body-worn
measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available enhancements and FCC
requirements.)
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of
various phones and at various positions, they all meet
the government requirement.

RF exposure regulation (SAR)
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for
this model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated
as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines.
SAR information on this model phone is on file with the
FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of
tap://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID:
SNFG10.
For body worn operation, this phone has been tested
and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines for use with an
accessory that contains no metal and positions the handset a
minimum of 1.5 cm from the body. Use of other
enhancements may not ensure compliance with FCC RF
exposure guidelines. If you do not use a body- worn accessory
and are not holding the phone at the
ear, position the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from your
body when the phone is switched on.
