1. For Your Safety Read these simple guidelines before using your phone. Failure to comply with these guidelines may be dangerous or illegal. For more detailed safety information, See “Important Safety Information” on page 68. Road Safety Comes First Don’t use a hand-held phone while driving; park the vehicle first. Switch Off In Hospitals Switch off your phone when near medical equipment. Follow any regulations or rules in force. Switch Off On Aircraft Mobile phones can cause interference.
Qualified Service Only qualified service personnel may install or repair cellular phone equipment. Use only approved accessories and batteries. FCC/Industry Canada Notice A cellular phone may cause TV or radio interference (e.g. when using a phone in close proximity to electronic receiving equipment). The FCC/Industry Canada can require you to stop using your cellular phone if such interference cannot be eliminated. If you require assistance, please contact your local service facility.
2. Display Indicators Shows which type of system the phone will use when it is roaming (see “Carrier Selection (Menu 5 2 1)” on page 49.) Blank if Home-only system is selected, or the phone is using a “preferred” network. The phone is using the Home system. Flashes if the phone is using a Home type system (not the Home system) or when the phone is using a “preferred” network (see “Carrier Selection (Menu 5 2 1)” on page 49). Blank if the phone is using a non-preferred network. A call is in progress.
Signal Strength Indication A cellular phone sends and receives radio signals. As with all radio equipment, the quality of radio reception depends on the strength of the radio signal in the area where you are operating your phone. The strength of the cellular signal is shown by the vertical bar on the left-hand side of the display. The higher the bar, the stronger the signal at your present location.
3. Battery Information Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery. Use only batteries approved by the phone manufacturer and recharge your battery only with the chargers approved by the manufacturer. See “Important Battery Information” on page 10. A new battery must be charged for a minimum of 12 hours before being used for the first time.
Charging the Battery Plug the charger into a wall outlet and connect the charger to the bottom of your phone. When charging starts, the battery segments scroll and the phone beeps once. You can use the phone during charging, but charging will be reduced for the duration of the call. Note: In a call, charging will stop completely if you are using the Standard Travel Charger (ACP-7U). After the segments of the battery indicator stop scrolling and all segments are displayed, the battery is fully charged.

Discharging the Battery A battery lasts longer and performs better if you fully discharge it from time to time.
The repetition rate of the battery-low warnings depends on the remaining battery capacity and the battery condition. The warnings are more frequent when you’re in a call. Note: If you’ve selected the Vibra Only or Silent Ringing Option, you won’t hear any warning tones. See “Ringing Options (Menu 3 1)” on page 37. When the battery charge is too low for the phone to work, the phone displays RECHARGE BATTERY, then beeps, then shuts itself off. Charge the battery as described earlier in this section.
The phone may remind you to discharge the battery, by presenting a series of battery-advice messages. Press W or 2. to page through the information, or press &/5 to clear the messages. Important Battery Information • Use only batteries and chargers approved by the phone manufacturer. • When a charger is not in use, disconnect it from the power source. Do not leave the battery connected to a charger for longer than a week; overcharging may shorten its life.
• Temperature extremes affect the ability of your battery to charge: it may require cooling or warming first. • When the battery is not in use, store it uncharged in a cool, dark and dry place. • The battery is a sealed unit with no serviceable parts.

See “Special Characters in Stored Numbers” on page 24 for details on storing pause and wait characters. The following is an example of a number you could store in your phone: This number contains a phone number (18005551212), a wait character, an access number (‘1234’), a wait character, and a password (‘3434’) - 18005551212w1234w3434.

8. Network Services Availability of Network Services To be able to use any of the network services, you will need to subscribe to the particular service. The service may not be available in all cellular service provider networks. Please contact your local cellular service provider for further information.
The number will be stored in the Received Calls list or the Missed Calls list, depending on whether you answer the call or not. Call Waiting Call Waiting allows you to be informed of a incoming call while you already have a call in progress. When you have a call in progress and a third party calls you, the phone can display the caller’s phone number or name (or a text message), with CALLING flashing.
Note: If the last seven digits of an incoming caller’s number match the last seven digits of a number stored in the Phone Book, the phone displays the stored number/name even if the area code or other dialing prefix is different. If you don’t answer the incoming call, after approximately 20 seconds the call alert indications will stop and the caller’s number (if available) will be added to the Missed Calls list.

Note: To be able to quick dial your voice mailbox with the 4 key: 1) Store your Voice Mailbox Access Number in the Phone Book location 1 (see “Save Name & Number (Menu 1 2)” on page 31).
9. Accessories An extensive range of accessories is available for your phone. You can select the accessories that best suit your specific communication needs.

If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, switch off your phone immediately. Hearing Aids Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres Switch off your phone when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. Users are advised to switch off the phone while at a refueling point (service station).
Emergency Calls IMPORTANT! This phone, like any cellular phone, operates by using radio signals, cellular and landline networks, as well as user- programmed functions which cannot guarantee connection in all conditions. Therefore, you should never rely solely upon any cellular phone for essential communications (e.g. medical emergencies). Remember, to make or receive any calls, the phone must be switched on and in a service area with adequate cellular signal strength.
In August, 1996, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for handheld wireless phones. Those guidelines are consistent with safety standards previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies: ANSI C95.1 (1992)*, NCRP Report 86 (1986)*, ICNIRP (1996)*. Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic evaluations of the relevant scientific literature.
