4.4.1 Silent/Sleep, Meeting/Theatre, or Maximum/Bus

In situations where a ringing phone may be frowned upon (in a restaurant, theatre or cinema for example), your phone has the functions Silent/Sleep and Meeting/Theatre.

If you turn on the Silent/Sleep function, all signal tones of your mobile phone will be de-activated (ringer, vibrator, key tones, SMS tone and confirmation signals). Only your alarm will still ring. This allows you to sleep restfully without being disturbed by any calls.

To ensure you don't forget to deactivate Silent/Sleep mode again (e.g. after a concert) and thereby make yourself unavailable, you can easily set after what time (1-24 hours) the ring tone of the telephone should be automatically turned back on (= switch off silent mode). This setting is also possible for the Meeting/Theatre function.

Choose the Meeting/Theatre function (in Sound & alert), when you want to be alerted to a call or a message (by the vibration alarm), but don't want others to notice – if you are sitting in a meeting, or in the theatre. Instead of ringing, your phone will beep twice and vibrate for 10 seconds. SMS and alarm will only cause the phone to vibrate.

If you select the Maximum/Bus function (in Sound & alert), the ring tone will be set to maximum volume and sound together with the vibration alarm. Receiver volume, key tones, SMS tone and confirmation signal are also set to maximum volume. Use this setting if you are in noisy surroundings, for instance on a bus.

6.1 RF EXPOSURE

Your phone contains a transmitter and a receiver. When it is ON, it receives and transmits RF energy. When you communicate with your phone, the system handling your call controls the power level at which your phone transmits.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)

Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves recommended by international guidelines. These guidelines were developed by the independent scientific organisation ICNIRP and include safety margins designed to assure the protection of all persons, regardless of age and health.

The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile devices is 2 W/kg and the highest SAR value for this device when tested at the ear was 0,677 W/kg*. As mobile devices offer a range of functions, they can be used in other positions, such as on the body as described in this user guide.

As SAR is measured utilising the device's highest transmitting power, the actual SAR of this device while operating is typically below that indicated above. This is due to automatic changes to the power level of the device to ensure it only uses the minimum power required to communicate with the network.

*The tests are carried out in accordance with EN 50360:2001.

** Please see next chapter about body worn operation.

Body worn operation

Important safety information regarding radiofrequency radiation (RF) exposure:

To ensure compliance with RF exposure guidelines the phone must be used with a minimum of 1.5 cm separation from the body.

Failure to observe these instructions could result in your RF exposure exceeding the relevant guideline limits.

Limiting exposure to radio frequency (RF) fields

For individuals concerned about limiting their exposure to RF fields, the World Health Organisation (WHO) provides the following advice:

Precautionary measures: Present scientific information does not indicate the need for any special precautions for the use of mobile phones. If individuals are concerned, they might choose to limit their own or their children's RF exposure by limiting the length of calls, or using 'hands-free' devices to keep mobile phones away from the head and body.

Further information on this subject can be obtained from the WHO home page http://www.who.int/peh-emf WHO Fact sheet 193: June 2000.

Regulatory information

The following approvals and notices apply in specific regions as noted. See next page.

Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 15 cm be maintained between a mobile phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. To achieve this use the phone on the opposite ear to your pacemaker and do not carry it in a breast pocket.

Hearing Aids

People with hearing aids or other cochlear implants may experience interfering noises when using wireless devices or when one is nearby.

The level of interference will depend on the type of hearing device and the distance from the interference source, increasing the separation between them may reduce the interference.

You may also consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.

Medical devices

Please consult your doctor and the device manufacturer to determine if operation of your phone may interfere with the operation of your medical device.

Hospitals

Switch off your wireless device when requested to do so in hospitals, clinics or health care facilities. These requests are designed to prevent possible interference with sensitive medical equipment.

Aircraft

Switch off your wireless device whenever you are instructed to do so by airport or airline staff. Consult the airline staff about the use of wireless devices on board the aircraft, if your device offers a ‘flight mode’ this must be enabled prior to boarding an aircraft.

Interference in cars

Please note that because of possible interference to electronic equipment, some vehicle manufacturers forbid the use of mobile phones in their vehicles unless a handsfree kit with an external antenna is included in the installation.

6.7 EXPLOSIVE ENVIRONMENTS

Petrol stations and explosive atmospheres

In locations with potentially explosive atmospheres, obey all posted signs to turn off wireless devices such as your phone or other radio equipment.

Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres include fuelling areas, below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.

Blasting Caps and Areas

Turn off your mobile phone or wireless device when in a blasting area or in areas posted turn off "two-way radios" or "electronic devices" to avoid interfering with blasting operations.

7 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What do I have to pay for?

You will begin to be charged for a phone call you initiated once someone (or your voicemail) has answered on the other end. When you use the SMS function, you will only be charged for sending the SMS, not writing or receiving it.

Any other functions (alarm, calculator) are free of charge.

Calling Abroad

If you are outside the coverage of your own network provider, your mobile phone will automatically find another network. Many phone cards will need to be enabled by your network provider for usage abroad. Please contact your provider.

Can I make an emergency call without reception or credit balance?

  • Without signal you cannot make a call (no service).
  • If 'Limited Service' is displayed, you either have no connection to your network provider, or no credit balance. In this case you can place an Emergency 999 call, but no other calls.

How often should I charge my battery pack?

Don't recharge your batteries after every call. Even with "intelligent" electronic chargers this will result in reduced battery capacity.

To keep your batteries "fit", let them deplete completely at least once a month. If you are not using the mobile phone for more than one month, remove the battery pack.

How long will my phone work until I have to charge it again?

The operating time depends among other things on the distance from the transmitter (if you are far away from it, the mobile phone needs a lot more energy to maintain contact), on the number of calls, and the volume setting. Under optimal conditions the batteries will last for 2.5 hours of calling. In standby mode you may count on an maximum operating time of 200 hours. If you have been on the phone for 1 hour, the standby time is reduced to 120 hours.

If the signal strength (reception) of your network varies strongly or fails altogether at a particular location, your mobile phone is continuously forced to search for an available network. This increases power consumption, and consequently depletes your batteries faster.

How do I clean the mobile phone?

Clean the device with a damp cloth. Avoid sprays and too much moisture. It might get into the interior of the device and cause damage. Never use cleansers containing abrasive materials, alcohol, or solvents (turpentine). They might damage the housing and/or printed surfaces.

What is the standby mode?

You can receive calls and see the time display. If key lock is engaged you will see a large key symbol instead of the time (see section 3.4). If the phone is in energy saving mode, the display shuts off, but the phone remains ready to receive calls.

Did I select this function, or not?

Your current setting is indicated by the checked box (√).

The new setting is indicated by a bar.

Save the new setting with ↗ or keep the old setting with ↖

My call didn't go through:

  • Make sure you have the correct number and area code.
  • Did you remember to include the area code even for a local call?

SIM card inserted! Only emergency call 999 works!

  • Check to make sure your SIM card is correctly inserted!
  • Gold contacts on the bottom? Clipped corner back left?
  • Remove SIM card and insert it again.

The screen of the mobile phone is empty (display turned off):

Your phone is in energy saving mode and has turned off the display (you can receive calls), press- the display will come on again.

The phone may be switched off (press and hold the ⏻ key on the left-hand side of the mobile phone for 2 seconds to switch it back on).

The screen of the mobile phone is black

The device is switched on, you hear key tones, but can't see anything on the screen.

The screen may be broken – have device serviced.

The mobile phone doesn't turn on

Remove the battery pack, insert it again, and switch the device on.

The phone doesn't charge

Leave the mobile phone connected for at least 10 minutes. If it does not begin to charge (battery symbol displayed) contact your service centre, as the battery or the charger may be defective.

Is it possible to hide my number?

If you don't want your telephone number to be seen by the other party, go to the menu and select Settings/Withhold number/Yes.

There is fluid leaking from the battery pack

Please make sure the fluid doesn't come in contact with skin or eyes. If this should happen, immediately rinse the area with water. To be completely safe, contact your doctor.

The battery pack is damaged

This may happen, for instance, if the mobile phone or the battery pack fall on a hard surface. Stop using the battery pack, and let a service professional determine if the batteries may be used again.
