• PRIVACY:

Please note that you must respect the laws and regulations in force in your country regarding taking photographs and

recording sounds using your mobile telephone. Pursuant to such laws and regulations, it may be strictly forbidden to take

photographs and/or to record the voices of other people or any of their personal attributes, and reproduce or distribute

them, as this may be considered to be an invasion of privacy. It is the user's sole responsibility to ensure that prior

authorisation be obtained, if necessary, in order to record private or confidential conversations or take a photograph of

another person; the manufacturer, the seller or reseller of your mobile phone (including the operator) disclaim any liability

which may result from the improper use of the mobile phone.

• BATTERY:

Before removing the battery from your phone, please make sure that the phone is switched off. Observe the following

precautions for battery use: do not attempt to open the battery (due to the risk of toxic fumes and burns), do not puncture,

disassemble or cause a short-circuit, do not burn batteries or dispose of them in household rubbish, and do not expose to

temperatures in excess of 60°C. Batteries must be disposed of in accordance with locally applicable environmental

regulations. Only use the battery for the purpose for which it was designed. Never use damaged batteries or not

recommended by Alcatel.

•CHARGERS

Mains powered chargers will operate within the temperature range: 0°C to 40°C.

The chargers designed for your mobile phone meet with the standard for safety of information technology equipment and

office equipment use. They should be used for this purpose only.

•RADIO WAVES:

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 emission limits

for exposure to radio-frequency (RF) energy. 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 organisations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The guidelines include a substantial

safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.

Safety and Use ......................................................

We recommend that you read this chapter carefully before using your phone. The manufacturer disclaims any liability for

damage, which may result as a consequence of improper use or use contrary to the instructions contained in this manual.

•TRAFFIC SAFETY:

Given studies, which show that using a mobile phone while driving a vehicle constitutes a real risk, even when the handsfree

kit is used (car kit, headset...), drivers are requested to refrain from using their mobile when the vehicle is not parked.

When switched on, your phone emits electromagnetic waves that can interfere with the vehicle’s electronic systems such

as ABS anti-lock brakes or airbags. To ensure that there is no problem:

- do not place your phone on top of the dashboard or within an airbag deployment area.

- check with your dealer or car manufacturer to make sure that the car electronics is well insulated.

•CONDITIONS OF USE:

Always treat the phone with care and in a clean and dust-free place.

Switch off the phone before boarding an aircraft to avoid prosecution.

Switch off the phone when you are in health care facilities, except in designated areas. As with other types of equipment

now in regular use, mobile phones can interfere with the operation of other electric, electronic or radio frequency devices

in their vicinity.

When the telephone is on, it should not come closer than 15cm to any medical device (i.e. cardiac pacemaker, hearing aid,

insulin pump, etc.). When making or receiving a call, make sure you place the phone against the ear that is furthest away

from the pacemaker or the hearing aid (if there is only one).

Switch the phone off when you are near gas or flammable liquids. Strictly obey the rules relating to the use of mobile phones

at fuel depots, petrol stations, chemical plants or in any potentially explosive atmosphere.

Do not allow children to use your mobile phone without supervision.

Do not open or attempt to repair your mobile phone yourself.

Move the handset away from your ear while using the “handsfree” option because the amplified volume might cause

hearing damage.

Only use your telephone with Alcatel batteries, chargers and accessories compatible with your model (see page 91). The

manufacturer disclaims any liability for damage caused by the use of other chargers or batteries. Do not allow your phone

to be exposed to adverse weather or environmental conditions (dampness, rain, infiltration, dust, sea air, etc.). The

minimum and maximum temperatures recommended by the manufacturer are between -10°C and +55°C. Beyond 55°C,

the legibility of the display may be impaired, but this is temporary and not serious.

General Information ............................................

•Internet address: www.alcatel.com - Wap address: wap.alcatel.com

•Alcatel Hot Line Number: see the “Alcatel Services” leaflet (calls charged at applicable local rates in

your country)

An electronic version of this user guide is available in English and other languages according to availability on

our Alcatel Server: www.alcatel.com

Your telephone is a transceiver that operates on GSM networks with 900, 1800 and 1900 MHz bands.

The marking indicates that your telephone complies with "1999/5/EC (R&TTE)" directive and that the

accessories concerned comply with current EC directives. The entire copy of the Declaration of Conformity

for your telephone can be obtained through Alcatel website: www.alcatel.com.

Protection against theft

Your mobile phone has an identification number called IMEI (phone serial number) shown on the packaging

label and in the product’s memory. We recommend that you note this number the first time you use your

telephone by entering , , , , and keep it safely. It may be requested by the police or

your operator if your telephone is stolen. This number allows your mobile telephone to be blocked,

preventing a third person from using it, even with a different SIM card.

January 2004

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 public authorities such as the Federal Communications Commission of the US Government

(FCC), the Australian Communications Authority (ACA) or by Industry Canada, is 1.6 W/kg averaged over 1 gram of body

tissue.

Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions 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 of the phone.

Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, compliance with national regulations and standards must be shown.

The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for use at the ear is 0.57 W/Kg and for use close to the body is

0.997 W/Kg. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet

the government requirement for RF exposure.

For body-worn operation, the phone meets FCC RF exposure guidelines provided that it is used with a non-metallic

accessory with the handset at least 1.5 cm from the body. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC

RF exposure guidelines.

Your telephone is equipped with a built-in antenna. For optimal operation, you should avoid touching it or degrading it.

The World Health Organization (WHO) considers that present scientific information does not indicate the

need for any special precautions for use of mobile phones. If individuals are concerned, they might choose

to limit their own or their children's RF exposure by limiting the length of calls, or using "hands-free" devices

to keep mobile phones away from the head and body (fact sheet n°193). Additional WHO information about

electromagnetic fields and public health are available on the following site: http://www.who.int/peh-emf.
