Preparing Your Phone for Use

OVERVIEW

Front

ASSEMBLY

You need to do the following to use your phone:

• insert the SIM card
  attach the battery to the phone
• charge the battery

THE SIM CARD

When you register as a subscriber with a network operator, you get a SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card. The SIM card contains a computer chip that keeps track of your phone number, the services included in your subscription, and your Phone Book information, among other things.

SIM cards come in two sizes. One is the size of a credit card, and the other is smaller. Your phone uses the smaller card. Many credit card-sized SIM cards have a perforated smaller card that you can take out easily. Before you can use your phone, you must insert the SIM card as shown below.

Inserting the SIM Card

1. Remove the battery (if attached).
2. Slide the SIM card down into the SIM card slot with the

golden connectors facing down and the cut corner turned to the left.

1. Remove the battery (if attached).

2. Lift the top of the SIM card and push the card out of the slot.

The PIN

Most SIM cards are supplied with a security code or PIN (Personal Identity Number), which you need to access the network. Every time you turn on your phone, it prompts you to enter your PIN. You will find your PIN in the information from your operator.

You may need your PIN when you want to change settings in your phone. Furthermore, some operators may have services that require a second PIN, your PIN2.

You should be careful with your PIN, since it is your protection against unauthorized use of your subscription.

If your PIN is entered incorrectly three times in a row, the SIM card is blocked. If this happens, you can unlock it by using your PUK (Personal Unblocking Key code), which you also get from your operator.

THE BATTERY

Your phone comes with a nickel metal hydride (NiMH) battery. The battery is not charged when you buy your phone, but there may be enough power to turn the phone on. We recommend that you charge the battery before you use the phone for the first time.

Attaching the Battery to your Phone

• Place the battery on the back of the phone and push until you hear a click.

When to Charge the Battery

The nickel metal hydride battery that comes with your phone can be charged whenever you wish, without affecting its performance. This is not the case with the cheaper nickel cadmium type batteries, often sold as accessories by other suppliers. For the best talk and standby time in the long run, we recommend that you use only Ericsson original batteries with your phone.

To remind you that you will soon need to charge the battery or replace it with a charged one:

• an alarm signal (a long beep) sounds and the message Battery low appears for ten seconds in the display – the signal is repeated several times,
• the indicator light on top of the phone starts flashing red.

Note! The phone turns itself off when the battery can no longer power it satisfactorily.

Charging the Battery

1. Make sure that the battery is attached to the phone.

2. Connect the charger to the mains.

3. Connect the charger to the phone as shown in the picture. The flash symbol on the phone side plug must face upwards.

To indicate charging:

the battery meter in the display pulses continuously,
- the indicator on top of the phone shows a steady red light (or green, if the phone is turned on).

When the battery is fully charged, the battery meter in the display is full and the indicator on top of the phone shows a steady green light.

Tip! You can use the phone while the battery is being charged. However, this increases the charging time.

Disconnecting the Charger

• Bend the plug connected to the phone upwards and pull it out.

Removing the Battery

1. Turn off the phone.
2. Press the catch on the bottom of the battery.

1. Lift the battery up and away from the phone.

Changing the Front Panel

1. Lift the bottom end of the front panel and remove the panel.

2. Fit the top of the new front panel to the phone.

3. Press the panel into place.

Turning Your Phone On and Off

TURNING YOUR PHONE ON

• Press and hold the NO (ON/OFF) key until you hear a click.

If Enter PIN Appears in Display

Some SIM cards are protected with a PIN code. If Enter PIN appears in the display after you have turned on the phone, do this:

1. Enter your PIN. If you make a mistake while entering your PIN, erase the wrong digit by pressing the CLR key.
2. Press YES.

Note! If your PIN is entered incorrectly three times in a row, the SIM card is blocked. You can unblock it by using your PUK, see "Security for Your Phone and Subscription" on page 44.

Network Search

After you have turned on the phone (and entered your PIN), the Ericsson logo appears in the display and the phone searches for a network.

When a network is found, the phone beeps three times. The indicator light on the top of the phone flashes green once every second and your network operator's name (in most cases abbreviated) appears in the display.

This is called standby mode. You can now make and receive calls.

INITIAL SETTINGS

The first time you turn on your phone, you may want to change the language in the display, choose the ring signal type and set the clock. For more information about these settings, see "Personalizing Your Phone" on page 29.

Display Language

Most modern SIM cards automatically set the display language to the language of the country where you bought your SIM card. If this is

not the case, the default language is English. To change the display language, see “Personalizing Your Phone” on page 29.

If your phone displays a language you do not understand, you can change it to English.

To change the display language to English

1. Press the CLR key.
2. Press the LEFT arrow key.
3. Enter 0000.
4. Press the RIGHT arrow key.

NETWORK

Normally, the name of a network appears in the display after you have turned your phone on, but sometimes there is no network that you can use. The display then shows one of the following:

Searching

If the message Searching remains in the display, you are within range of a network, but you are not allowed to use it. However, in an emergency, some operators allow you to call the international emergency number 112. See "Making Emergency Calls" on page 15.

No network

If the message No network is displayed, there is no network within range or the received signal is too weak. You have to move to get a stronger signal.

• In standby mode, press and hold the NO (ON/OFF) key until you hear a click.

Display Information and Key Functions

DISPLAY INFORMATION

Your phone display will help you to:

• verify that you are dialling correctly,

Using the Call List

THE CALL LIST

This chapter describes the Call List function, which is a type of telephone number log or a memory that stores information (time, date, phone number and name) about the last 30 incoming and outgoing calls. Once your list exceeds 30 calls, the oldest one is deleted.

The numbers that you have dialled are always stored. If your subscription includes the Calling Line Identification (CLI) service and the caller's network sends the number, you will find the number (together with a name if stored in your phone book) of incoming calls in the Call List. You can call any of the stored numbers. The following icons appear in the display together with the name and number.

The Call List stores:

+4	Answered calls icon appears next to the date or time of answered calls
+7	Missed calls icon appears next to the date or time of missed calls
+3	Dialled numbers icon appears next to the date or time of a dialled number

All calls are stored together in chronological order. If the same number is called more than once, the latest call replaces earlier ones. If you check a call within 24 hours, the time of the call is displayed. Otherwise, the time is replaced by the date. You can toggle between date and time by pressing .

If no information about the caller's number was received, the display shows Unknown or Restricted, which means that no information was available, your subscription does not support CLI, or the caller does not allow the number to be shown.

Note! If you change SIM cards, the Call List is cleared. Dialled numbers remain in SIM card memory though.

Calling a Number from the Call List

1.Scroll to Info, YES, Call list, YES.
2. Scroll to the number that you want to call.
3. Press YES to make the call.

Missed Calls

If you have missed a call, the phone shows Calls: 1, where the number 1 indicates the number of unanswered/missed calls.

• Press YES to go directly to the Missed Calls list.

Erasing a Number from the Call List

1. When information about a call appears, press CLR. Erase? appears.
2. Press YES.

If your SIM card does not contain the phone number to your network service centre, you must specify the number yourself. Otherwise you cannot reply to messages received or send your own messages. See "Enabling the Phone to Send SMS" on page 35.

Note! The Short Message Service may not be available in all networks. Some network operators may only allow SMS to be sent within their own network.

The message memory can hold up to 15 messages. When all memory positions are full, the oldest read message is overwritten when a new message is received.

If the message memory becomes full with unread messages, new messages are automatically stored in the SIM card memory.

Messages remain in the message memory until you erase them (see "Erasing a Message" on page 36), until you insert a different SIM card, or until the telephone needs the memory space to store new messages.

The SIM Card Memory

You can store important messages in a memory on your SIM card. This means that you can find them no matter which phone you use. Messages that are saved in the SIM card memory remain there until you erase them. The maximum number that you can store depends on your SIM card.
