Safety
precautions
Please note:
Note for parents
Read the operating instructions and safety precautions carefully before use.
Explain to your children the contents and the hazards associated with using the phone.
Do not use mobile phone in hos-
pitals or in the vicinity of medical
devices, such as pacemakers or
hearing aids. Mobile phones may
interfere with the operation of
these devices. Keep a minimum
distance of 8" between pacemak-
er and mobile phone. When us-
ing the mobile phone hold it to the
ear farthest from the pacemaker.
Always use the handsfree kit
(p. 48) with an external antenna
for calls while driving!
Mobile phones must be switched
off at all times in an aircraft. To
prevent accidental activation,
see (p. 36).
Switch off near service stations,
fuel depots, chemical plants or
blasting operations. Mobile
phones can interfere with the
operation of technical installa-
tions.
The ringtone (p. 43), info tones
(p. 43) and handsfree talking are
reproduced through the loud-
speaker. Do not hold the phone
to the ear when it rings or when
you have switched on the hands-
free function (p. 19). Otherwise,
there is a risk of serious lasting
damage to hearing.
Caution! 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.
. Only use original Siemens batter-
ies (100% mercury-free) and
charging devices. Otherwise,
considerable health risks and
damage to the product cannot be
excluded: the battery could ex-
plode, for instance.
It is recommended that you open
the phone only to replace the bat-
tery (100% mercury-free) or SIM
card. Do not open the battery un-
der any circumstances. Any other
changes to this device may inval-
idate the FCC authorization re-
quired for operation of the unit,
and are strictly prohibited.
Safely dispose of used batteries
and phones according to the le-
gal regulations.
Mobile phones can interfere
with the operation of nearby
TVs, radios or PCs.
Only use original Siemens ac-
cessories to avoid possible
damage to health and property
and to comply with the existing
regulations.
Improper use invalidates the warranty!
