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 restric-

tions 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 infor-

mation consult your doctor.

The ringtone (p. 42), info tones

and handsfree talking are repro-

duced through the loudspeaker.

Do not hold the phone to your ear

when it rings or when you have

switched on the handsfree func-

tion (p. 15). Otherwise you risk

serious permanent damage to

your hearing.

The SIM card may be removed.

Caution! Small parts like this

could be swallowed by young

children.

The mains voltage specified on

the power supply unit (Volt)

must not be exceeded. Other-

wise the charging device may

be destroyed.

Only use original Siemens bat-

teries (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 % mer-

cury-free) or SIM card. You

must not open the battery under

any circum-stances. All other

changes to this device are strict-

ly prohibited and will invalidate

the operating licence.

Please note:

Please dispose of unwanted

batteries and phones as permit-

ted by the laws in your country.

The phone may cause interfer-

ence in the vicinity of TV sets,

radios and PCs.

Use only Siemens original ac-

cessories. This will avoid poten-

tial risks to health or property

and ensure compliance with all

relevant regulations.

If you wear the phone around your neck,

please use only the Siemens original FCT-

500 Loop Case. In order to avoid any inju-

ries or death from strangulation no other

accessories are allowed for this purpose.

Childs up to 14 years shall not wear the

phone around the neck.

Improper use will invalidate the guarantee!

Getting

started

Insert SIM card/battery

The service provider supplies you

with a SIM card on which all the im-

portant data for your account is

stored. If the SIM card is in credit-

card size, snap out the smaller seg-

ment and remove any rough edges.

• Remove the battery cover by

pressing top centre of the cover

and slide downwards.

• Insert the SIM card into the slot

with the contact area facing down-

wards and push gently until it en-

gages below the holder (make

sure the angled corner is in the

correct position).

• Place the battery into the block of

the phone, with the contact area

facing down. Push the battery

carefully downwards.

• Slide the battery cover upwards

from the bottom of the phone, un-

til it latches into place.

Note

Always switch off phone before removing

the battery!

Only 3 V SIM cards are supported. Please

contact your service provider, if you have

an older card.

Charging the battery

The battery is not supplied fully

charged. Plug the charger cable into

the bottom of the phone, plug the

power supply unit into the mains

power socket and charge for at least

3,5 hours.

Display when charging is in progress

h During charging.

Charging time

An empty battery is fully charged af-

ter about 3,5 hours. Charging is only

possible within the temperature

range of +0 °C to +45 °C. If the tem-

perature rises/falls above/below this,

the charge symbol flashes a war-

ning. The voltage specified on the

power supply unit must not be ex-

ceeded.

To obtain maximum performance of

the battery it must be fully charged

and then emptied at least five times.

Charge icon not visible

If the battery was completely dis-

charged, the charging symbol will

not be immediately visible when

connected to the charger. In this

case the battery is fully charged after

4,5–5,5 hours.

Only use the charger provided!

Display while in service

Charge level display during opera-

tion (empty–full):

adg

A beep sounds when the battery is

nearly empty. The charge level of the

battery is displayed correctly only af-

ter uninterrupted charging/discharg-

ing. You should therefore not remove

the battery unnecessarily and where

possible not interrupt charging prema-

turely.

Performance

A full battery will give you between

60–250 hours of standby time or

1,5–4,5 hours of talktime.

Note

The charger will become hot after extended

use. This is normal and not dangerous.
