Congratulations...
… and thank you for choosing the CF888, a mobile phone
specially suited for the demanding user of communication
tools. Retaining the slim, streamlined size that has become
associated with the Ericsson family of phones, the CF888
sets a new standard for others to follow.
Apart from its unique toughness and extraordinary sound
quality, the CF888 comes packed with features that will help
you stay ahead. Some highlights include:
• With the built-in GSM modem, you can forget all about
PC Cards. It’s already inside your phone, guaranteeing
you instant access to your PC, laptop or handheld communicator -- wireless if you prefer that, thanks to the infrared ca pabilities.
• Dual band, dual-mode operation extends the potential
for efficient network usage, especially so if you frequently
use your phone in urban ar eas. The dual-band antenna
ensures optimal reception in both frequency bands.
Like the other phones from Ericsson, the CF888 is produced
to meet the highest quality standards.
This guide introduces you to your CF888 and shows you how
to get the most out of it. Before you start, please read the
“Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use” in the back of the
manual.

Valuable Information
Operators & Subscription
To be able to use your phone, you need to have a subscription to a network. This is obtained from the network operator. The services included in your subscription depend on
your choice of operator and/or subscription. Therefore,
some of the services and functions described in this manual
may not be accessible to you. If you want a complete list of
the services included in your subscription, please contact
your network operator.
Dual Band/Dual Mode –
GSM 1900 & Analog 800
The Ericsson CF888 is a dual band/dual mode phone, so
you can operate your phone in two different kinds of networks – the GSM 1900 (PCS) and the AMPS 800 systems.
The digital GSM system operates at 1900 MHz, while the
analog system, AMPS, operates at 800 MHz.
A dual band/dual mode phone, such as your CF888, combines the two standards and can use both frequencies. You
have the power of the GSM 1900 in your home network
while being able to roam in the widespread analog coverage.
GSM 1900 is sometimes called GSM or PCS.
Analog information/instructions will appear in blue.
SIM & PIN
Together with your subscription you will obtain a 3-volt SIM
(Subscriber Identity Module) card. The SIM must be a dual
mode SIM card to operate as a dual mode phone. A single mode SIM will only access GSM 1900 networks.
The SIM card contains a computer chip that keeps track of
your phone number, the services you have ordered from your
network operator and your Phone Book information, among
others.
Your SIM card is supplied with a security code or Personal
Identity Num ber (PIN), which you need in order to gain access to the network. Your PIN may also be required when
you want to change settings in your phone. Furthermore,
some operators may have services that require a second PIN,
the PIN2. You will find your PIN (and PIN2) in the information from your operator.
When you turn on your phone you may be prompted to enter
your PIN if the PIN is activated. If the PIN is entered incorrectly three times in succession, the SIM card will be blocked.
If this happens you can unlock it by using your Personal Unblocking Key (PUK) code, which is also obtained from your
operator. See chapter “Security”.
You should be careful with your PIN, since it is your protection against unauthorized use of your phone and subscription.

Preparing Your Phone for Use
The SIM Card
When you register as a subscriber with a network operator,
you obtain a SIM card.
•Fold out the holder.
SIM cards come in two sizes. One is the size of a credit card,
and the other is considerably smaller (about the size of a regular stamp). The CF888 uses the smaller card. Many operators
deliver credit card size SIM cards where the small size card is
punched out to be easily removed.
Before you can use your phone, you must insert the SIM cardinto
the phone.
To Insert the SIM Card
Ž Slide the SIM card into the holder. Make
certain that the angled corner is top right
To insert the SIM card, remove the battery (if attached) and follow
these steps:
ΠRelease the SIM card holder by sliding it toward the antenna.
• Fold down the holder.
• Lock the holder by pressing it down
and sliding it toward the bottom of the
phone.
Some features/menus are operator dependent
•Lift the battery up and away from the phone.
The Battery
Your mobile phone comes with a nickel metal hydride
(NiMH) battery. The battery is not charged when purchased,
but there may be enough power to turn on the phone.
Attaching the Battery to the Phone:
ΠPlace the battery on the back of the phone.
Charging the Battery
Make sure that the battery is attached to the phone. Then:
ΠConnect the charger to the outlets. You will receive one
of the chargers pictured below.
A green indicator on the charger lights up. If not, make
• Press the battery upwards and
against the phone until you hear
a click.
Removing the Battery
Make sure that the phone is turned off before removing the
battery. Then:
ΠPress the locking catch on
the bottom of the battery.
sure you have inserted the plug to the charger correctly
(you may have to press hard).
• If applicable, connect the clear plastic plug on the
charger cable to the charger. It is correctly inserted
when you hear a click.
Some features/menus are operator dependent
When to Charge the Battery
The nickel metal hydride (NiMH) battery that comes with
your phone can be charged whenever you wish without losing performance. This is not the case with the nickel cadmium
type batteries, often sold as accessories from other suppliers.
For optimal talk and standby time in the long run, we recommend that you only use Ericsson original batteries with your
CF888.
Ž Connect the other end of the cable to the phone according to the picture. The flash symbol on the plug
must face upwards. Note that you may have to press
hard.
The phone will automatically start charging the battery as you
attach the charger. To indicate the charging:
• the battery meter in the display is continuously filled and
emptied.
As a re minder that the battery needs to be charged or replaced with a charged one...
• an alarm signal (a long beep) sounds and the message
Battery low ap pears for ten seconds in the display.
• the indicator on top of the phone shows a steady red light
(green if the phone is turned on).
When the battery is fully charged, the battery me ter in the display will show full and the indicator on top of the phone will
show a steady green light.
Note!
It is possible to use the phone while the battery is being
charged. This will, however, increase the charging time.
Disconnecting the Charger
l Lift the plug connected to
the phone upwards and
pull it out.
• the indicator light on top of the phone startsblinking red.
Note!
If the phone is left turned on, the low battery alarm will be repeated several times and, finally, the phone will turn itself off
when the battery is no longer able to power it satisfactorily. It
might be possible to turn the phone on again, but you will not
be able to make or receive any calls. Instead the battery must
be charged or replaced with a charged one.

The Antenna
Your CF888 is equipped with an antenna. For optimal radio
coverage, we recommend that you have it extended when
you use the phone.
• Grip the knob on the antenna and pull until the antenna is fully extended.
• Enter your PIN. The digits ap pear as stars (*) in the
display. If you make a mistake while entering your PIN,
erase the faulty digit by pressing the CLR key.

ERICSSON
Note!
If you have entered your PIN correctly, you will be welcomed
by your phone. The phone will then search for a network.
If the message Emergency Calls Onlyis displayed,
you are within range of a network but you are not allowed to
use it. However, in an emergency, you can call the emergency
number 911 (or 112, where applicable). See chapter “Making
and Receiving Calls”.
If the PIN is entered incorrectly three times in succession,
the SIM card will be blocked and you will have to unblock it
using your PUK code. See chapter “Security”.
When a network is found, the phone beeps three times. The
indicator light on top of the phone flashes green once every
second and your network operator’s name (in most cases abbreviated) is shown in the display. If you have the charger
connected, the indicator will show a steady green light instead
of a flashing green light.
NETWORK
When No Network Name Is Displayed
You can now make and receive calls. This is called standby
mode.
If the message No network is displayed, there is no network within range or the received signal is too weak. You
have to move to obtain a suf ficiently strong signal.
Tip!
Check the Networks menu to ensure tht your system is
PCS/Analog and your Analog options are set to A then B, or
B then A, depending on your carrier’s roam ing agreement.

During a Call
When you end the call, the number remains in the display.
You can now call the number by pressing YES or save it in the
Phone Book (see chapter “The Phone Book”).
When you are engaged in a call, there are several functions in
your CF888 to help you perform actions you might need during the conversation.
Changing the Earpiece Volume
Sending Tone Signals
If you want to change the earpiece volume during a call:
In order to, for example, perform banking by phone or control a phone answering ma chine, you need to use codes.
These codes are sent as tone signals (also called DTMF
tones).
l Press the volume key on the side of the phone up or
down.
• Pressing UP increases the volume.
• Pressing DOWN decreases the volume.
To send tone signals/codes during a call:
l Press the appropriate keys (1-9, * and #).
Muting the Microphone

Sending DTMF tones in standby mode:
To temporarily mute the microphone during a call:
ΠPress and hold the CLR key. Mute is shown in the display.
When dialing a number with pause(s) in standby mode, the
first part of the number is sent as a telephone number. Any
numbers af ter the p are sent as DTMF. A 3-second pause is
generated for each p sign, but the 3-second timer can be
forced by pressing SEND.
• To resume conversation, release the CLR key.
In Analog mode, the digits between pauses are sent as DTMF
when YES is pressed. If LONG YES is pressed, the digits
between pauses are hookflashed.
Using the Display as a Scratch Pad
If you, during a call, need to write down a phone number, you
can use the Scratch Pad function in the CF888. To do this:
l Enter the number using the numeric keys.
Note!
A p (pause) is sent by holding down a * key.

Some features/menus are operator dependent
Sending DTMF Tones While on a Call:
Digits entered during an active call are automatically sent as
DTMF. If YES is pressed, the call will be set-up to the
number entered.
This applies to both AMPS and GSM modes.
Sending Digits from Your Phone Book While
on a Call
While on a call, you can recall a phone book entry. A second
call can be placed by pressing and holding the YES key.
In analog mode, press YES to send digits (before pauses) as
DTMF.
Tip!
14
You can also enter the code before you make the call or store
it in the Phone Book. See Creating Your Personal Phone Book in
the “Phone Book” chapter on how to do this.
Some features/menus are operator dependent
The Menu System
The menu system of your CF888 allows you to control the
phone’s functions and to customize it to suit your personal
preferences.
To select a menu or make a setting:
ΠPress the navigation key to the LEFT or RIGHT until you
reach the desired menu or function.
Each menu is a list of options you can choose from. Some of
the options contain submenus with additional options. As a
help for finding your way among the menus, we recommend
that you use the fold-out on the inside of the cover.
• Press YES to enter the menu or to select the function.
Ž Press the navigation key to find the desired submenu or
to select a setting alternative.
• Press YES to enter the submenu or to confirm the setting.
Navigating the Menu System
Note!
If you have entered the menu system, but have not pressed
any key for 60 seconds, the phone will return to the standby
display.
Tip!
Instead of pressing the navigation key repeatedly you can
press and hold it down until you reach the desired menu or

The Phone Book
We also recommend that you read the section about entering
characters at this stage, even though you might need to go
back to the section when you follow the instructions later on.
The Phone Book is a function in your CF888 that conveniently lets you store and recall phone numbers. This means
that you can let the phone remember your important numbers, instead of you keeping everything in your head or
carrying your address book with you.
Tip
Phone Book Memories
The Phone Book also keeps track of your last dialed numbers
and, if you subscribe to the Calling Line Identification service, the last answered numbers. This feature is convenient if
you have to redial someone.
There are two different memories where you can store the
phone numbers:
• The mem ory on the SIM card.
When you receive a call and the caller’s number is in the
Phone Book, you will see the name in the display.
Storing your numbers in the card memory allows you to recall
the numbers stored on the SIM card even when you change
phones, i.e. when you insert your SIM card into another
phone.
• The phone memory.
Together with your CF888 you received the Ericsson Mobile
Office Suite software. When installed on your computer, the
Mobile Office Suite lets you manage your Phone Book from
your computer in a simple and straightforward way.
On the other hand, by storing your numbers in thephone memory, your numbers will always be available to you on your
phone, even if you change SIM cards.
You will find more information about the Mobile Office
Suite in the chapter “Communicating via the Modem”.
The mem ory positions in the card memory are numbered
from 1 onwards. The actual number of memory positions
available depends on your SIM card.
Before You Start
Before you start creating your personal Phone Book, there
are a few things you need to know. In this section, you will
learn about the two different storages and how to store the
numbers with the international prefix.
16
The phone memory can hold up to 99 phone numbers. The
memory positions are designated ¤ 1 – ¤ 99.

Sending and Receiving Text Messages
A very convenient feature of your Ericsson CF888 is the
Short Message Service (SMS). This allows you to send and receive text messages consisting of up to 160 characters.
Note!
If you do not want to read an incoming message at once, it is
automatically stored in the Messages memory in the phone,
which allows you to read it later on.
Text messages can be received when the phone is in standby
mode, when the recipient is engaged in a call or when incoming calls are forwarded to another phone number. If the recipient’s phone is turned off when a message is sent, a notifying message will be displayed shortly after the phone is
turned on.
If there are any unread incoming messages in the messages
memory, a letter icon ( ) is shown to the left at the bottom
of the display.
Together with your CF888 you received the Mobile Office
Suite software. The Mobile Office Suite makes it possible for
you to write and read SMS messages on your computer. For
more information on how this is done, please see the chapter
“Communicating via the Modem”.
The SMS Mobile Originate may need to be activated.
You cannot send SMS while in Analog mode.
22
The Messages Memory
Using the SMS, you do not have to worry about whether the
person you want to reach checks their answering ma chines.
The message will be delivered to their phone.
Apart from sending standard messages to phones, your Ericsson CF888 is also prepared for sending fax messages
(group 3 and 4), e-mails and telexes, via SMS. This service is
operator dependent.
Tip!
Two Memories
The Messages memory can hold up to 10 messages. When all
memory positions are occupied, the oldest read message will
be overwritten when a new message is received.
If the Messages memory becomes full with unread messages,
new messages will automatically be stored in the SIM card
memory. If the SIM card memory becomes full, the letter
icon ( ) starts blinking.
Messages will remain in the Messages memory until you erase
them (see “How to Erase a Message”), until you insert a different SIM card, or until the telephone needs the memory
space for storing new messages
The SIM Card Memory
If you receive an important message and want to make sure it
is not erased from the messages memory, you can store it in
memory on your SIM card. This means that you can retrieve
the message regardless of which phone you use. Messages
Some features/menus are operator dependent

that are saved in the SIM card memory will remain there until
you erase them.

Sending an Embedded Number in a
Message
When sending a message to another wireless phone, or when

the phone retrieves the entire number from the message, displays it, and allows the phone user to dial the number by
pressing YES. This information does not in any way imply
that the Ericsson phone is capable of receiving them, it is

Some features/menus are operator dependent
only capable of receiving them if the network operator has
activated the service.
Tip!
You will now automatically come to the next message in
the message list.
A phone number enclosed within double quotation marks
has the highest probability of being recognized (e.g.
“919-555-1212”).
Other ways to write the phone number within messages are:
• (919) 555-1212
• 919-555-1212
• 012-123 45 67
• 12 34 56
• (02) 11 22 33

• Secondly, you need to install the Microsoft IrDA driver
and the Ericsson CF888 modem script on your computer. These are found on the CD and/or the diskettes
that came with your phone. Detailed instructions are
found in the section ‘Installing the Infrared Modem’below.
A very convenient feature of the CF888 is the built-in modem ( a PC card modem). With this, you can connect a computer to your phone in order to send and receive fax and email messages, browse the Internet and much more.
With the CF888 you can choose if you want to connect to
your computer via infrared link (IR) or via cable.
To be able to use various communication services you also
need appropriate software, for example a fax application, an
e-mail ap plication or an Internet browser.
• For you to be able to use the above mentioned services
most phone network operators require that you have
separate fax and data subscriptions. This way you never
need to worry about whether an incoming call is a fax,
data or normal speech call. If you do not already have
separate fax and data subscriptions, please contact your
operator.
Your CF888 comes with either a CD or a set of diskettes (or
both, depending on what country you bought your phone in),
containing a modem script and the Ericsson Mobile Office Suite
software, among other things.
The Mobile Office Suite is a phone book manager and a message manager. See chapter “The Mobile Office Suite” for
more information.
You will also find the Microsoft IrDA driver, the Microsoft
Windows CE driver and modem script.
Before you Start
Before you can start using communication ap plications there
are a few things that need to be taken care of:
• First, you need to make sure your computer is configured
for infrared communication. Most computers are already

Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
General
Since its introduction in the mid 1980s the mobile phone is
one of the most exciting and innovative products ever developed. Your phone can help you to stay in touch with your office, your home, emergency services and others.
Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. When
the phone is turned on it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF) energy. De pending on the type of mobile phone
you have purchased, it operates in different frequency ranges
and employs commonly used modulation techniques. The
system that handles your call when you are using your phone,
controls the power level at which your phone transmits.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy
Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and
also sends our radio 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 US and international standards bodies:
• ANSI C95.1 (1992)*
• NCRP Report 86 (1986)*
• ICNIRP (1996)*
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 Standards
(C95.1).
The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines
(and those standards).
* American National Standards Institute: National Council on Ra diation Protection and Measurements; International Commission on
Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection.
Efficient Phone Operation
How to use your phone for optimum performance with
minimum power consumption:
• Hold the phone as you would any other telephone. While
speaking directly into the mouthpiece, an gle the antenna
in a direction up and over your shoulder. If the antenna is
extendable/retractable, it should be extended during a
call.
• Do not hold the antenna when the phone is in use. Holding the antenna affects call quality, may cause the phone
to operate at a higher power level than needed and
shorten talk and standby times.
65
Some features/menus are operator dependent
Tips for Efficient Operation
Antenna Care: Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Un authorized an tennas, modifications,
or attachments could damage the phone and may violate
FCC regulations.
Most modern electronic equipment, for example equipment
in hospitals and cars, is shielded from RF energy. However,
certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the
therefore signals from your wireless phone.
Phone Operation: Hold the phone as you would any other
telephone with the antenna pointed up and over your shoulder.
Pacemakers
Tips on Efficient Operation: For your phone to operate
most efficiently:
• Extend your an tenna fully.
• Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when the
phone is in use. Contact with the antenna af fects 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, please:
• Give full attention to driving.
• Use hands-free operation, if available.
• Pull off the road and park before mak ing or answering a
call if driving conditions so require.
66
Electronic Devices
The Health Industry Manufacturers As sociation 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 a breast pocket.
• Should use the ear opposite 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 interferences, you may want to
consult your service provider (or call the customer service
line to discuss alternatives).
Some features/menus are operator dependent
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 external therefore 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 air craft.
Children
Do not allow children to play with your phone since they
could hurt themselves or others or accidentally damage the
phone.
Blasting Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operation, 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 atmospheres 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 us ing liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane); ar eas where the air
contains chemicals or par ticles, 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 an 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 airbag or in the air bag deployment area. If
67
Some features/menus are operator dependent
in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed and the
air bag inflates, serious injury could result.
Product Care
• Do not expose your mobile phone to moisture or ex-
treme temperatures.
• Do not use any other accessories but Ericsson originals.
Failure to do so may result in loss of performance, fire,
electric shock or injury, and will void the warranty.
• Do not attempt to disassemble the product. Do ing so
will void warranty. This product does not contain consumer serviceable components. Service should only be
performed by Authorized Service Centers.
