In order to use any of these Network Services, you must subscribe to these service(s) from your service provider and obtain instructions for their use. Some of these Network Services may not be available when roaming on a network other than your home network. set by the factory. However, playing games (particularly with the backlight continuously switched on) and listening to music will shorten the time available for standby and to make and receive telephone calls. Operation times also vary depending on network conditions, SIM settings, charging and battery condition, how you use your phone and other factors. Memory The mobile phone contains an internal memory device that stores the software required to operate the mobile phone, communicate with the GSM/GPRS network and provide the user interface. Some features in the internal memory run additional devices and some additional games and utilities. The amount of memory available in the mobile phone is finite and may be insufficient to store large numbers of applications and files. Warning! Remember to back up your data and to do so frequently. Always back up all data and programs before sending the mobile phone in for repair. Standby and Talk Time Information The mobile phone incorporates features that are new to the mobile phone world. These may include color displays and lighting, graphic games, music reproduction and browsing the Internet. The way you use the display and the features will affect the performance of the battery and how long it lasts between charge cycles. The quoted standby times and talk times show the minimum and maximum performance that can be expected from the battery under normal network conditions and with the default settings as 4 Safety precautions Safety precautions Information for parents Please read the operating instructions and safety precautions carefully before use. Explain the content and the hazards associated with using the phone to your children. Remember to comply with legal requirements and local restrictions when using the phone. For example in aeroplanes, petrol stations, hospitals or while driving. Mobile phones can interfere with the functioning of medical devices such as hearing aids or pacemakers. 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. 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 (Volt) must not be exceeded. Otherwise the charging device may be destroyed. The ringtone (S. 25), info 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 (S. 12). Otherwise you risk serious permanent damage to your hearing. Only use original Siemens batteries (100 % mercury-free) and ­ charging devices. Otherwise you risk serious damage to health and property. The battery could explode, for instance. You may only open the phone to replace the battery (100 % mercuryfree) or SIM card. You must not open the battery under any circumstances. All other changes to this device are strictly prohibited and will invalidate the operating licence. Important: Please dispose of unwanted batteries 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 accessories. This will avoid potential risks to health or property and ensure compliance with all relevant regulations. Improper use will invalidate the guarantee! These safety instructions also apply to Siemens original accessories. Phone overview 5 Phone overview 1A 2B Call key (press lower part of button) Dial phone number /name displayed, take calls.
