Explain the contents of the phone to your children and the risks associated with using the phone! When in a hospital switch off your phone. Mobile phones can interfere with the functioning of medical devices such as hearing aids or pacemakers. Keep at least 20cm/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. Only use a handsfree kit while driving (p. 84). Mobile phones must be switched off at all times in an aircraft. To prevent accidental activation, see (p. 87). Switch off near petrol stations, fuel depots, chemical plants or blasting operations. Mobile phones can interfere with the operation of technical installations. The SIM card may be removed. Caution! Small parts could be swallowed by children. The mains voltage (V) specified on the power supply unit must not be exceeded. 3 Ringtones (p. 70), message tones (p. 71) and handsfree talking are reproduced through the loudspeaker. Do not hold the phone to the ear when it rings or when you have switched on the handsfree function (p. 22). Otherwise you could cause serious damage to your hearing. Do not view the activated infrared interface [Class 1 LED product (classification under IEC 60825-1)] with an optical magnifier. We recommend you only use Siemens original batteries (100% mercury-free) and charging devices. Otherwise considerable health risks and damage to the product cannot be excluded. For example, the battery may explode. Do not open the phone. Only the battery (100% mercury-free) or SIM card may be replaced. You must not open the battery under any circumstances. Any other changes to this device are strictly prohibited, as they will invalidate the type approval criteria required for operation of the unit. 4 Please note: Safety precautions Dispose of used batteries and phones according to the legal regulations. Mobile phones can interfere with the operation of nearby TVs, radios or PCs. Only use Siemens original accessories. In this way you will avoid possible health risks and damage to the product and ensure compliance with all relevant provisions. Improper use invalidates the warranty! The phone may only be used if the keypad is fully closed or fully opened; for optimum audio quality, however, it is recommended you open the keypad completely.
