The battery can be charged and discharged
hundreds of times, but it will eventually wear
out. When the operating time (talk-time and
standby time) is noticeably shorter than normal,
it is time to buy a new battery.
Charging A New Battery
Before you can use your phone, you must fully
charge the battery. A new battery must be
charged for at least 16 hours before being used
for the first time. Attach the battery to the
phone and connect the charger to the bottom of
the phone as described on page 2.
NiMH battery performance will vary with the
condition of the battery. The following
conditions will reduce battery performance:
temperature extremes, poor charging or
discharging practices and improper storage.
Battery Information
When the battery charge is low, the warning
message BATTERY LOW flashes you at regular
intervals.
The NiMH battery’s performance is particularly
limited in temperatures below -10°C and Li-Ion
batteries performance is particularly limited in
temperatures below 0°C. Therefore, the battery
should be kept protected from the cold, e.g., in a
pocket, if it is to be exposed to low temperatures
for long periods.
Finally, the message RECHARGE BATTERY is
displayed. If you do not recharge your battery,
the phone switches off after a while. While
charging is in progress, the battery charge bar
on the display scrolls repeatedly from clear to
full. When the bar stops scrolling and remains at
a full bar, and a message BATTERY FULL appears
on the display, charging is completed. If the
display bar continues to scroll, charging may be
temporarily disrupted (for instance, if the
battery is too hot or too cold).
The approximate charging times, for charging
empty batteries to an 80% capacity, while using
the Fast Travel Charger are:
NiMH batteries:
550 mAh 60 min.
Li-Ion batteries:
Use only batteries approved by the phone
manufacturer, and recharge your battery only
with the chargers approved by the
400 mAh 50 min.
1500 mAh 180 min.
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, since overcharging may
shorten its life. If left unused, a fully charged
battery will discharge itself over time.
A trickle charge to full 100% capacity would
require a couple of hours more, but it is not
necessary in normal use.
Temperature extremes will affect the ability of
your battery to charge: it may require cooling or
warming first.
Note that a new NiMH battery achieves full
performance only after two or three complete
charge and discharge cycles!
Note:
- Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
For good operation times when using a NiMH
battery, discharge the battery from time to time
by leaving your phone switched on until it turns
itself off (or by using the battery discharge
facility of any approved accessory for your
phone). Do not attempt to discharge the battery
by any other means.
- Never use any charger or battery which is
damaged or worn out.
- Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental
short-circuiting can occur when a metallic
object (coin, clip or pen) causes direct
connection between the + and - terminals of
7

the battery (metal strips on the back of the
battery), for example, when you carry a spare
battery in your pocket or purse. Short-circuiting
the terminals may damage the battery or the
connecting object.
Accessories
An extensive range is available for your phone.
You can select these according to your special
communication needs. For availability of
accessories, check with your local dealer. When
you disconnect the power cord of any accessory,
grasp and pull the plug, not the cord.
- Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such as
in a closed car in summer or winter conditions, will
reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery.
Always try to keep the battery
between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F). A phone
with a hot or cold battery may temporarily not
work, even when the battery is fully charged.
IMPORTANT! Use only accessories approved by
the phone manufacturer. The use of any other
types will invalidate any approval or warranty
applying to the phone and may be dangerous.
- Dispose of used batteries in accordance with
local regulations. Recycle!
Call Forwarding
Call transfer is an NMT system feature. Contact
your system provider for further information.
This feature allows you to transfer incoming
calls to another telephone number.
- Do not dispose of batteries in a fire!
Switching On/Off
As with any other radio transmitting device,
avoid unnecessary contact with the antenna
when the phone is switched on.
Register Recall Function
The NMT network may offer a service called
Register Recall (three-way calling or conference
call). This feature allows you to activate
a second call while you are already making a
call.
Press
to switch the phone on /off.
When turning the phone on, it will carry out a
short self-test, briefly displaying its number, or
the name associated with the number (operator,
dealer or your own name).
This function is activated with the
key. For
When the appropriate country code and O
indicator appear on the display, the phone is
ready for use.
further information, contact your local
system provider as the operating instructions
vary from country to country.
A cellular phone can only make and receive calls
when it is switched on.
Signal Strength
The quality of your call depends on the strength
of the cellular signal in your area. The phone
displays current field strength as a series of bars
on the left-hand side of its display screen - the
more bars, the better the signal in your area.
If the signal is poor, you can try moving the
phone slightly to improve reception. If you are
using the phone in a building, you may find that
reception is better near a window.

Care and Maintenance
Important Safety Information
Your phone is a product of superior design and
craftsmanship and should be treated with care.
The suggestions below will help you to fulfill any
warranty obligations and to enjoy this product
for many years.
Traffic Safety
Do not use a hand-held telephone while driving
a vehicle. If using a hand-held phone, park the
vehicle before conversing. Always secure the
phone in its holder; do not place the phone on
the passenger seat or where it can break loose
in a collision or sudden stop.
Keep the phone and all its parts and accessories
out of the reach of small children’s.
Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity, and
liquids contain minerals that will corrode
electronic circuits.
The use of an alert device to operate a vehicle’s
lights or horn on public roads is not permitted.
Remember, road safety always comes first!
Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty
areas; its moving parts can be damaged.
Operating Environment
Do not store the phone in hot areas. High
temperatures can shorten the life of electronic
devices, damage batteries, and warp or melt
certain plastics.
Remember to follow any special regulations in
force in any area and always switch off your
phone whenever it is forbidden to use it, or
when it may cause interference or danger.
Do not store the phone in cold areas. When the
phone warms up (to its normal temperature),
moisture can form inside the phone, which may
damage electronic circuit boards.
Operation of any radio transmitting equipment,
including cellular phones, may interfere with
the functioning of inadequately protected
medical devices. Consult a physician or the
manufacturer of the medical device if you have
any questions. Other electronic equipment may
also be subject to interference.
Do not attempt to open the phone. Non-expert
handling of the phone may damage it.
Do not drop, knock or shake the phone. Rough
handling can break internal circuit boards.
As with other mobile radio transmitting
equipment, users are advised that for the
satisfactory operation of the equipment and for
the safety of personnel, it is recommended that
the equipment should only be used in the
normal operating position.
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents,
or strong detergents to clean the phone. Wipe it
with a soft cloth slightly dampened in a mild
soap-and-water solution.
If the phone or any of its accessories are not
working properly, take them to your nearest
qualified service facility. The personnel there
will assist you, and if necessary, arrange for
service.
Users are advised to switch off the phone when
at a refuelling point (service station). Users are
reminded of the need to observe restrictions on
the use of radio equipment in fuel depots (fuel
storage and distribution areas), chemical plants
or where blasting operations are in progress.
Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases or
explosive materials in the same compartment as
the phone, its parts or accessories.

Only qualified personnel should install or service
the phone in a vehicle. Faulty installation or
service may be dangerous and may invalidate
any warranty which may apply to the unit.
If certain features are in use (Keyguard, Locking,
Call Barring, etc.), you may first need to turn
those features off before you can make an
emergency call. Consult this document and your
local cellular service provider.
Electronic fuel injection systems, electronic
anti-skid braking systems, electronic cruise
control systems and other electronic systems
can malfunction due to a lack of protection
from radio signals. Check regularly that all
cellular phone equipment in your vehicle is
mounted and operating properly.
When making an emergency call, remember to
give all the necessary information as accurately
as possible. Remember that your cellular phone
may be the only means of communication at the
scene of an accident - do not cut off the call
until given permission to do so.
Switch off your cellular phone when in an aircraft.
The use of cellular telephones in an aircraft may be
dangerous to the operation of the aircraft, disrupt
the cellular network and is illegal.
Troubleshooting
If the power does not come on or stay on: Make
sure the battery is properly installed in the
phone. Make sure the contacts are clean on the
battery and the charging stand. The battery
charge may be too low for operation. Listen for
the low battery warning tones. If the power
comes on but the phone does not work: check
Failure to observe these instructions may lead to
suspension or denial of cellular telephone
services for the offender, or legal action or both.
Emergency Calls
This phone, like any cellular phone, operates
using radio signals, cellular and landline
networks, as well as user-programmed
the O and
indicators; you might be out of
the cellular service range.
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.
Emergency calls may not be possible on all
cellular phone networks or when certain
network services and/or phone features are in
use. Check with local cellular service providers.

key for several
seconds to ready the phone for calls.
