■Battery Information
Your device is powered by a rechargeable battery. The battery
intended for used with this device is BL-4C. Nokia may make
additional battery models available for this device. This device is
intended for use when supplied with power from the following
chargers: AC-10U. The exact charger model number may vary
depending on the type of plug. The plug variant is identified by one
of the following: E, EB, X, AR, U, A,C or UB.
The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times, but
it will eventually wear out. When the talk and standby times are
noticeably shorter than normal, replace the battery. Use only Nokia
approved batteries, and recharge your battery only with Nokia
approved chargers designated for this device. Use of an unapproved
battery or charger may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or
other hazard.
13
13
If a battery is being used for the first time or if the battery has not
been used for a prolonged period, it may be necessary to connect
the charger, then disconnect and reconnect it to begin charging the
battery. If the battery is completely discharged, it may take several
minutes before the charging indicator appears on the display or
before any calls can be made.
Always switch the device off and disconnect the charger before
removing the battery.
Unplug the charger from the electrical plug and the device when
not in use. Do not leave a fully charged battery connected to a
charger, since overcharging may shorten its lifetime. If left unused,
a fully charged battery will lose its charge over time.
Always try to keep the battery between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and
77°F). Extreme temperatures reduce the capacity and lifetime of
the battery. A device with a hot or cold battery may not work
temporarily. Battery performance is particularly limited in
temperatures well below freezing.
Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting can
occur when a metallic object such as a coin, clip, or pen causes
direct connection of the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals of
the battery. (These look like metal strips on the battery.) This might
happen, for example, when you carry a spare battery in your pocket
or purse. Short-circuiting the terminals may damage the battery or
the connecting object.
14
14
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as they may explode. Batteries
may also explode if damaged. Dispose of batteries according to
local regulations. Please recycle when possible. Do not dispose as
household waste.
Do not dismantle, cut, open, crush, bend, deform, puncture, or
shred cells or batteries. In the event of a battery leak, do not allow
the liquid to come in contact with the skin or eyes. In the event of
such a leak, flush your skin or eyes immediately with water, or seek
medical help.
Do not modify, remanufacture, attempt to insert foreign objects
into the battery, or immerse or expose it to water or other liquids.
Improper battery use may result in a fire, explosion, or other
hazard. If the device or battery is dropped, especially on a hard
surface, and you believe the battery has been damaged, take it to a
service center for inspection before continuing to use it.

used either in the normal use position against the ear or when
positioned at least 2.2 centimeters (7/8 inch) away from the body.
When a carry case, belt clip, or holder is used for body-worn
operation, it should not contain metal and should position the
device the above-stated distance from your body.
To transmit data files or messages, this device requires a quality
connection to the network. In some cases, transmission of data
files or messages may be delayed until such a connection is
available. Ensure the above separation distance instructions are
followed until the transmission is completed.
■Vehicles
Radio frequency (RF) signals may affect improperly installed or
inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles such as
electronic fuel injection systems, electronic antiskid (antilock)
braking systems, electronic speed control systems, and air bag
systems. For more information, check with the manufacturer, or its
representative, of your vehicle or any equipment that has been

Check regularly that all wireless device equipment in your vehicle is
mounted and operating properly. Do not store or carry flammable
22
liquids, gases, or explosive materials in the same compartment as
the device, its parts, or accessories. For vehicles equipped with an
air bag, remember that air bags inflate with great force. Do not
place objects, including 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.
Using your device while flying in aircraft is prohibited. Switch off
your device before boarding an aircraft. The use of wireless
teledevices in an aircraft may be dangerous to the operation of
the aircraft, disrupt the wireless telephone network, and may
be illegal.
■Potentially Explosive Environments
Switch off your device when in any area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere, and obey all signs and instructions. Potentially
explosive atmospheres include areas where you would normally be
advised to turn off your vehicle engine. Sparks in such areas could
cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Switch off the device at refueling points such as near gas pumps at
service stations. Observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment
in fuel depots, storage, and distribution areas; chemical plants; or
where blasting operations are in progress. Areas with a potentially
explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked.
They include below deck on boats, chemical transfer or storage
facilities and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles
23
such as grain, dust, or metal powders. You should check with the
manufacturers of vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as
propane or butane) to determine if this device can be safely used in
their vicinity.
■Emergency Calls
Important: This device operates using radio signals,
wireless networks, landline networks, and user-
programmed functions. If your device supports voice
calls over the internet (internet calls), activate both
the internet calls and the cellular phone. The device
will attempt to make emergency calls over both the
cellular networks and through your internet call
provider if both are activated. Connections in all
conditions cannot be guaranteed. You should never
rely solely on any wireless device for essential
communications like medical emergencies.
To make an emergency call:
1. If the device is not on, switch it on. Check for adequate
signal strength. Depending on your device, you may also
need to complete the following:
• Remove certain call restrictions you have activated in
your device.
• Change your profile from offline or flight profile mode
to an active profile.
24
2. Press the End key as many times as needed to clear the
display and ready the device for calls.
3. Enter the official emergency number for your present
location.
4. Press the Send key.
If certain features are in use, you may first need to turn those
features off before you can make an emergency call. Consult
the user guide or your service provider for more information.
When making an emergency call, give all the necessary
information as accurately as possible. Your wireless device may
be the only means of communication at the scene of an
accident. Do not end the call until given permission to do so.
■Certification Information (SAR)
This mobile device meets guidelines for exposure to radio waves.
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed
not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves recommended
by international guidelines. These guidelines were developed by the
independent scientific organization ICNIRP and include safety
margins designed to assure the protection of all persons, regardless
of age and health.
The exposure guidelines for mobile devices employ a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate or SAR.
The SAR limit stated in the ICNIRP guidelines is 2.0 watts/kilogram
(W/kg) averaged over 10 grams of tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted
using standard operating positions with the device transmitting at
its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. The
25
actual SAR level of an operating device can be below the maximum
value because the device is designed to use only the power required
to reach the network. That amount changes depending on a number
of factors such as how close you are to a network base station.
The highest SAR value under the ICNIRP guidelines for use of the
device at the ear is 0.70 W/kg.
Use of device accessories may result in different SAR values. SAR
values may vary depending on national reporting and testing
requirements and the network band. Additional SAR information
may be provided under product information at www.nokia.com.
Your mobile device is also designed to meet the requirements for
exposure to radio waves established by the Federal Communications
Commission (USA) and Industry Canada. These requirements set a
SAR limit of 1.6 W/kg averaged over one gram of tissue. The highest
SAR value reported under this standard during product certification
for use at the ear is 1.12 W/kg and when properly worn on the body
is 0.61 W/kg.
■Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC)
Warning: For hearing aid compatibility, you must turn
off the Bluetooth connectivity.
Your mobile device model complies with FCC rules governing hearing
aid compatibility. These rules require an M3 microphone or higher
value. The M-value, shown on the device box, refers to lower radio
frequency (RF) emissions. A higher M-value generally indicates
that a device model has a lower RF emissions level, which may
improve the likelihood that the device will operate with certain
26
hearing aids. Some hearing aids are more immune than others to
interference. Please consult your hearing health professional to
determine the M-rating of your hearing aid and whether your
hearing aid will work with this device. More information on
accessibility can be found at www.nokiaaccessibility.com.

Safety is the most important call you will ever make.
■A Guide to Safe and Responsible Wireless
Phone Use While Driving
Wireless devices give consumers the freedom to stay connected
with family and friends, to conduct business and to have fun
virtually anytime, anywhere. But, when it comes to using wireless
phones behind the wheel, it’s important to remember that safety
always comes first.
Drivers face many distractions in the car – from eating and drinking
to playing music or talking with other passengers. The wireless
industry has worked closely with the public safety community, to
36
help educate drivers on the range of distractions they face behind
the wheel as well as when it is appropriate to place or receive a
wireless phone call. Educational efforts that provide practical and
sound advice, rather than legislation, are the best methods to truly
affect driver behavior in a positive way.
Through industry-sponsored public service announcements and
outreach, drivers are reminded to, before reaching for the phone
while driving, ask themselves, “Is this call necessary?” If it is
necessary to use a wireless phone while driving, the wireless
industry encourages drivers to follow some basic do’s and don’ts
to ensure that a wireless phone doesn’t become a distraction.
Your wireless phone can be your best traveling partner – offering a
lifeline in emergencies, helping to locate directions and keeping you
connected with family and friends when necessary. In fact, wireless
phones are one of the best safety tools drivers can have on the road.
Every day, more than 200,000 calls are made from wireless phones to
911 or other emergency services. That’s about 140 calls every minute.
More Americans are using their wireless phones to report
emergencies, to prevent crimes, and even to save lives.
But safety should be every driver’s top priority. That means making
good judgment calls about when it’s appropriate to use your
wireless phone. It also means keeping your eyes on the road and
being cautious and courteous of other drivers. Every state has
hazardous or inattentive driving laws to discourage distracted
driving – no matter what the cause.

■Driving Tips
If it is necessary to use a wireless device while driving, the wireless
industry encourages drivers to follow some basic do's and don'ts to
ensure that a wireless device doesn't become a distraction.
1. Get to know your wireless phone and its features such as speed
dial and redial.
2. Position your wireless phone within easy reach.
3. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when
you are not moving.
4. Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving; if
necessary, suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous
weather conditions.
5. Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving.
6. Use a hands-free device for convenience and comfort.
7. Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that
might divert your attention from the road.
8. Dial 9-1-1 or other local emergency numbers to report serious
emergencies — it’s free from your wireless phone!
9. Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies.
10. Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency wireless
number when necessary.
So, play it safe and remember, with wireless, safety is your call!

7. Message from the FDA
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) provides the following
consumer information about wireless phones.
See http://www.fda.gov/cellphones/ for updated information.
Do wireless phones pose a health hazard?
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health
problems are associated with using wireless phones. There is no
proof, however, that wireless phones are absolutely safe. Wireless
phones emit low levels of radiofrequency energy (RF) in the
microwave range while being used. They also emit very low levels
of RF when in the stand-by mode. Whereas high levels of RF can
produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure to low level RF
that does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse
health effects. Many studies of low level RF exposures have not
found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some
biological effects may occur, but such findings have not been
confirmed by additional research. In some cases, other researchers
have had difficulty in reproducing those studies, or in determining
the reasons for inconsistent results.
What is FDA's role concerning the safety of wireless phones?
Under the law, FDA does not review the safety of radiation-emitting
consumer products such as wireless phones before they can be sold,
as it does with new drugs or medical devices. However, the agency
has authority to take action if wireless phones are shown to emit
radiofrequency energy (RF) at a level that is hazardous to the user. In
39
such a case, FDA could require the manufacturers of wireless
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, FDA has urged the wireless phone industry to take a number
of steps, including the following:
Support needed research into possible biological effects of RF of
the type emitted by wireless phones;
Design wireless phones in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to
the user that is not necessary for device function; and
Cooperate in providing users of wireless phones with the best
possible information on possible effects of wireless phone use on
human health.
FDA belongs to an interagency working group of the federal
agencies that have responsibility for different aspects of RF safety
to ensure coordinated efforts at the federal level. The following
agencies belong to this working group:
National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health
Environmental Protection Agency
Federal Communications Commission
Occupational Safety and Health Administration
National Telecommunications and Information Administration
The National Institutes of Health participates in some interagency
working group activities, as well.
40
FDA shares regulatory responsibilities for wireless phones with the
Federal Communications Commission (FCC). All phones that are
sold in the United States must comply with FCC safety guidelines
that limit RF exposure. FCC relies on FDA and other health agencies
for safety questions about wireless phones.
FCC also regulates the base stations that the wireless phone
networks rely upon. While these base stations operate at higher
power than do the wireless phones themselves, the RF exposures
that people get from these base stations are typically thousands of
times lower than those they can get from wireless phones. Base
stations are thus not the primary subject of the safety questions
discussed in this document.
What is FDA doing to find out more about the possible health
effects of wireless phone RF?
FDA is working with the U.S. National Toxicology Program and with
groups of investigators around the world to ensure that high priority
animal studies are conducted to address important questions about
the effects of exposure to radiofrequency energy (RF). FDA has been
a leading participant in the World Health Organization
International Electromagnetic Fields (EMF) Project since its
inception in 1996. An influential result of this work has been the
development of a detailed agenda of research needs that has
driven the establishment of new research programs around the
world. The Project has also helped develop a series of public
information documents on EMF issues. FDA and the Cellular
Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) have a formal
41
Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) to do
research on wireless phone safety. FDA provides the scientific
oversight, obtaining input from experts in government, industry,
and academic organizations. CTIA-funded research is conducted
through contracts to independent investigators. The initial research
will include both laboratory studies and studies of wireless phone
users. The CRADA will also include a broad assessment of additional
research needs in the context of the latest research developments
around the world.
What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to radiofrequency
energy from my wireless phone?
If there is a risk from these products--and at this point we do not
know that there is--it is probably very small. But if you are
concerned about avoiding even potential risks, you can take a few
simple steps to minimize your exposure to radiofrequency energy
(RF). Since time is a key factor in how much exposure a person
receives, reducing the amount of time spent using a wireless phone
will reduce RF exposure.
If you must conduct extended conversations by wireless phone
every day, you could place more distance between your body and
the source of the RF, since the exposure level drops off dramatically
with distance. For example, you could use a headset and carry the
wireless phone away from your body or use a wireless phone
connected to a remote antenna.
Again, the scientific data do not demonstrate that wireless phones
are harmful. But if you are concerned about the RF exposure from
42
these products, you can use measures like those described above to
reduce your RF exposure from wireless phone use.
What about children using wireless phones?
The scientific evidence does not show a danger to users of wireless
phones, including children and teenagers. If you want to take steps
to lower exposure to radiofrequency energy (RF), the measures
described above would apply to children and teenagers using
wireless phones. Reducing the time of wireless phone use and
increasing the distance between the user and the RF source will
reduce RF exposure. Some groups sponsored by other national
governments have advised that children be discouraged from using
wireless phones at all. For example, the government in the United
Kingdom distributed leaflets containing such a recommendation in
December 2000. They noted that no evidence exists that using a
wireless phone causes brain tumors or other ill effects. Their
recommendation to limit wireless phone use by children was
strictly precautionary; it was not based on scientific evidence that
any health hazard exists.
Do hands-free kits for wireless phones reduce risks from exposure
to RF emissions?
Since there are no known risks from exposure to RF emissions from
wireless phones, there is no reason to believe that hands-free kits
reduce risks. Hands-free kits can be used with wireless phones for
convenience and comfort. These systems reduce the absorption of
RF energy in the head because the phone, which is the source of the
RF emissions, will not be placed against the head. On the other hand,
43
if the phone is mounted against the waist or other part of the body
during use, then that part of the body will absorb more RF energy.
Wireless phones marketed in the U.S. are required to meet safety
requirements regardless of whether they are used against the head
or against the body. Either configuration should result in compliance
with the safety limit.
Do wireless phone accessories that claim to shield the head
from RF radiation work?
Since there are no known risks from exposure to RF emissions from
wireless phones, there is no reason to believe that accessories that
claim to shield the head from those emissions reduce risks. Some
products that claim to shield the user from RF absorption use special
phone cases, while others involve nothing more than a metallic
accessory attached to the phone. Studies have shown that these
products generally do not work as advertised. Unlike "hand-free" kits,
these so-called "shields" may interfere with proper operation of the
phone. The phone may be forced to boost its power to compensate,
leading to an increase in RF absorption. In February 2002, the Federal
trade Commission (FTC) charged two companies that sold devices
that claimed to protect wireless phone users from radiation with
making false and unsubstantiated claims. According to FTC, these
defendants lacked a reasonable basis to substantiate their claim.
How does FCC Audit Cell Phone RF?
After FCC grants permission for a particular cellular telephone to be
marketed, FCC will occasionally conduct “post-grant” testing to
determine whether production versions of the phone are being
44
produced to conform with FCC regulatory requirements. The
manufacturer of a cell phone that does not meet FCC’s regulatory
requirements may be required to remove the cell phone from use and
to refund the purchase price or provide a replacement phone, and may
be subject to civil or criminal penalties. In addition, if the cell phone
presents a risk of injury to the user, FDA may also take regulatory
action. The most important post-grant test, from a consumer’s
perspective, is testing of the RF emissions of the phone. FCC
measures the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of the phone,
following a very rigorous testing protocol. As is true for nearly any
scientific measurement, there is a possibility that the test
measurement may be less than or greater than the actual RF
emitted by the phone. This difference between the RF test
measurement and actual RF emission is because test measurements
are limited by instrument accuracy, because test measurement and
actual use environments are different, and other variable factors.
This inherent variability is known as “measurement uncertainty.”
When FCC conducts post-grant testing of a cell phone, FCC takes
into account any measurement uncertainty to determine whether
regulatory action is appropriate. This approach ensures that when
FCC takes regulatory action, it will have a sound, defensible
scientific basis.
FDA scientific staff reviewed the methodology used by FCC to
measure cell phone RF, and agreed it is an acceptable approach,
given our current understanding of the risks presented by cellular
phone RF emissions. RF emissions from cellular phones have not
45
been shown to present a risk of injury to the user when the
measured SAR is less than the safety limits set by FCC (an SAR of 1.6
w/kg). Even in a case where the maximum measurement uncertainty
permitted by current measurement standards was added to the
maximum permissible SAR, the resulting SAR value would be well
below any level known to produce an acute effect. Consequently,
FCC’s approach with measurement uncertainty will not result in
consumers being exposed to any known risk from the RF emitted by
cellular telephones.
FDA will continue to monitor studies and literature reports
concerning acute effects of cell phone RF, and concerning chronic
effects of long-term exposure to cellular telephone RF (that is, the
risks from using a cell phone for many years). If new information
leads FDA to believe that a change to FCC’s measurement policy
may be appropriate, FDA will contact FCC and both agencies will
work together to develop a mutually-acceptable approach.
