Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
The mobile phone is one of the most exciting and inno-
vative products ever developed. Your phone can help you
to stay in touch with your office, your home, emergency
services and others.
industry reviewed the available body of research to
develop the ANSI Standard (C95.1).
The design of your phone complies with the FCC guide-
lines (and those standards).
* American National Standards Institute: National Coun-
cil on Radiation Protection and Measurements; Interna-
tional Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection.
Safety
Exposure to Radio Frequency Signals
Antenna Care
Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low
power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it
receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement
antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or
attachments could damage the phone and may violate
FCC regulations.
In August, 1996, the Federal Communications Com-
mission (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with
safety levels for handheld wireless phones. Those guide-
lines are consistent with the safety standards previously
set by both US and international standards bodies:
Phone Operation
NORMAL POSITION: Hold the phone as you would
any other telephone with the antenna pointed up and
over your shoulder.
• ANSI C95.1 (1992)*
• NCRP Report 86 (1986)*
• ICNIRP (1996)*
TIPS ON EFFICIENT OPERATION: For your phone
to operate most efficiently:
• Extend your antenna fully (where applicable).
Those standards were based on comprehensive and peri-
odic evaluations of the relevant scientific literature. For
example, over 120 scientists, engineers, and physicians
from universities, government health agencies, and
• Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when the
phone is in use. Contact with the antenna affects
call quality and may cause the phone to operate at a
higher power level than otherwise needed.
Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use

• Call roadside assistance or a special wireless non-
emergency assistance number when necessary.
Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless
telephones in the areas where you drive. Always obey
them. Also, if using your phone while driving, please:
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF
signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not
be shielded against RF signals from your wireless phone.
• Give full attention to driving - driving safely is your
first responsibility.
• Use handsfree operation, if available.
• Pull off the road and park before making or answer-
ing a call if driving conditions so require.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recom-
mends that a minimum separation of six (6”) inches be
maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a
pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pace-
maker. These recommendations are consistent with the
independent research by and recommendations of Wire-
less Technology Research.
In addition, Ericsson suggests the following safe driving
tips if you are using your phone while driving:
• Get to know your wireless phone and its features
such as speed dial and redial.
• Position your wireless phone
within easy reach.
Persons with pacemakers:
• Suspend conversations during
hazardous driving conditions or
situations.
• Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six
inches from their pacemaker when the phone is
turned ON.
• Do not take notes or look up
• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
phone numbers while driving.
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to mini-
mize the potential for interference.
• Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place
calls when you are not moving or before pulling
into traffic.
• If you have any reason to suspect that interference is
taking place, turn your phone OFF immediately.
• Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversa-
tions that may be distracting.
Hearing Aids
• Use your wireless phone to call for help.
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some
hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may
• Use your wireless phone to help others in emergen-
cies.

Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
want to consult your service provider (or call the cus-
tomer service line to discuss alternatives).
Blasting Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your
phone OFF when in a “blasting area” or in areas posted:
“Turn off two-way radio.” Obey all signs and instruc-
tions.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the
manufacturer of your device to determine if it is ade-
quately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician
may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn your phone OFF when in any area with a poten-
tially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and
instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explo-
sion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any
regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so.
Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equip-
ment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often
but not always clearly marked. They include fueling
areas such as gasoline stations; below deck on boats; fuel
or chemical transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using
liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane);
areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such
as grain, dust, or metal powders; and any other area
where you would normally be advised to turn off your
vehicle engine.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inade-
quately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles.
Check with the manufacturer or its representative
regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the man-
ufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your
vehicle.
Posted Facilities
Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted
For Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag
An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT place
objects, including both installed or portable wireless
equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag
deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is
improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious
bodily injury could result.

Product Care and Operation
Ericsson suggests you read and observe the following for
6
Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
• Do not let the metal contacts on the battery touch
another metal object such as keys in your pocket.
This could short-circuit and damage the battery.
Battery Information
New Batteries
• Do not attempt to take a battery apart.
The battery packaged with your phone is not fully
charged. For maximum battery capacity, use your
charger to condition the battery.
• Do not expose a battery to open flame. This could
cause the battery to explode.
• Turn your phone OFF before removing the battery.
• Use only the AC/DC adapter supplied with your
battery charger. Using a different adapter could be
dangerous and will void your phone warranty.
Recycling Your Battery
Your phone manufacturer is a member of the Recharge-
able Battery Recycling Corporation (RBRC), a non-
profit service organization designed to assist in the recy-
cling of rechargeable batteries. Many areas require the
recycling of rechargeable batteries. In the U.S., call 1-
800-822-8837 to find out how to recycle your battery.
Outside the U.S., contact your local retailer for recycling
instructions.
• Never charge a battery when the ambient room
temperature is below 50° F (10°C) or above 105°F
(40°C).
• Do not allow the battery to be placed into the
mouth. Battery electrolytes may be toxic if swal-
lowed.
Battery Use and Care
Conditioning Your Battery
A rechargeable battery has a long service life if treated
properly. A new battery, or one that has not been used
for a long period of time, should be conditioned before
using your phone. Avoid recharging a fully-charged or
almost fully-charged battery. This can result in the mem-
ory effect, which causes the battery to charge to less than
its full capacity. If your phone shuts off due to low bat-
tery power, you should charge the battery within 24
hours for the battery to reach full capacity.
To condition your battery, do the following:
Charge the battery until it is fully charged.

prompting you to read the emergency message.
Emergency messages are always shown before urgent and
normal messages, regardless of the order in which the
messages were received.
Text Message Service
Your phone can store a maximum of 2KB of message
text in its memory. The messages can be classified by the
sender using one of the following message types: Nor-
mal, Urgent, and Emergency. A text message can also
contain one or more callback numbers - phone numbers
specified by the person leaving the message.
Urgent Text Messages
The message category assignment and the callback num-
ber capability are dependent on the system used by your
service provider.
If your phone is turned On when it receives an urgent
text message, your phone sounds a brief tone, and a mes-
sage appears in the display.
After a sender leaves a message with your service pro-
vider, the service provider transmits the message to your
phone. If your phone is On, it receives the message. If
your phone is Off, your service provider retains the mes-
sage and transmits it again later.
Normal Text Messages
If your phone is turned On when it receives a normal
text message, your phone sounds a brief tone, and a mes-
sage appears in the display.
When a message is received, your phone lets you skip,
review, save, or delete a text message.

Data, Fax, and Internet Calls
Your Ericsson mobile phone contains a modem similar
Data Calls
to the modems you use to connect your computer to
your home or office telephone service. Rather than con-
necting to standard telephone lines, however, the
modem in your mobile phone allows you to connect
your computer to the mobile telephone system. In
places where mobile network operators provide the nec-
essary support, you can use your mobile phone to send
or receive faxes, upload or download data files, or access
the Internet. This chapter will assist you with setting up
your computer and phone to handle data, fax, and Inter-
net calls on the mobile network.
Data calls are placed to exchange computer files between
two computers. While the data connection is in place,
files can be transferred between the connected comput-
ers, according to the capabilities of the software in use.
When a data call is made, the connection will remain in
place until it is closed by one of the computers involved.
To make or receive data calls with your Ericsson mobile
phone, you must have a properly configured communi-
cations program running on your computer.
Fax Calls
Note! If digital data/fax/Internet service is not available, you
can purchase an analog modem card that is compatible
with your Ericsson mobile phone and use data/fax func-
tions on the available analog system.
Fax calls are placed to send fax messages. When a fax
message has been sent, your fax software or the originat-
ing fax machine will terminate the call. To make or
receive fax calls with your Ericsson mobile phone, you
must have a properly configured fax program running
on your computer.
Differences Between Data, Fax, and Internet
Calls
Internet Calls
Internet calls are placed to Internet Service Providers
(ISP) when you want to use e-mail or access websites on
the World Wide Web. To make Internet calls, you must
have an account with an ISP and a properly configured
Internet access program (browser) running on your
computer. When your software is installed and set up to
dial your ISP, calls can be made using the normal dialing

ing software that must be running on your computer.

procedure. Once a connection to your ISP is established,
it will remain in place until you disconnect or until it is
automatically disconnected due to the degradation of
signal quality or due to inactivity.
Note! The availability of digital mobile voice service does not
necessarily imply that your mobile service operator sup-
ports digital data operation.
Note! Throughout this chapter, references to data/fax/internet
Setting Up Your Computer
will be referred to as simply data.
To operate properly with the modem in your Ericsson
mobile phone, make sure that your computer has the
following hardware and software:
Before You Start
Before setting up your phone for data operation, do the
following:
• A functional serial port
• An operating system that supports data access soft-
ware, such as Windows 95 or Windows 98
• Make sure that you have the required hardware and
software components.
• Appropriate fax (class 2.0), Internet access, or file
transfer software
Note! You must have an Ericsson DA 18 Phone Book Manager
Accessory Kit, which includes a serial interface cable, to
connect your Ericsson mobile phone to your computer.
The kit also includes a compact disc with the software
required to install your phone as a modem on your com-
puter.
Note! Class “2.0” is different from Class “2”.
Initial Setup
Successful first-time setup of your phone and computer
for data operation involves the following steps:
• Confirm that your mobile service provider supports
digital data services in your planned usage area. If
digital data service is not available, you can pur-
chase an analog modem card that is compatible
with your Ericsson mobile phone and use data
functions on the available analog system.
Connect Your Computer to Your Phone
1
Your Ericsson DA 18 Phone Book Manager Acces-
sory Kit contains a serial interface cable. The cable
has a plug on one end that matches the receptacle
on the bottom of your Ericsson mobile phone. The
other end of the cable has a 9-pin female connector
that matches the standard 9-pin serial interface port

Review the instructions from your mobile service pro-
vider that describe the procedures and rules for making
and receiving data calls in your area. If you are having
trouble receiving a data call, you may need to configure
your phone manually to receive a data call. To configure
your phone manually, do the following:
Install Your Modem Control Software (driver)
The modem control software (driver) that you need
to use your Ericsson mobile phone is available on
the compact disc included in your DA 18 Phone
Book Manager Accessory Kit. Refer to the Install-
ing Your Modem Driver From Your Compact Disc

calls from Windows applications when connected to the
Ericsson Voice Call Dialer. This is particularly useful if
you have contact cards with phone numbers in a contact
management application. You can open a contact card,
click on the phone icon, and originate a call using your
Ericsson mobile phone. Then you simply pick up your
mobile phone and continue the call. The Ericsson Voice
Call Dialer is compatible with most contact manager
software packages. Refer to the “Manual Installation of

Making Data and Fax Calls
When your phone and computer are properly set up,
your phone will go into Data/Fax profile as soon as your
fax or file transfer software is started. You are then ready
to send a fax, or initiate data calls, as with any other
modem.
Disconnecting
Disconnect your Ericsson mobile phone from your com-
puter by disconnecting the cable from your phone and
the serial port from your computer. When your fax pro-
gram is stopped or when your interface cable is discon-
nected, your phone will exit Data/Fax profile and return
to the previously selected profile.
Review the instructions from your mobile service pro-
vider that describe the procedures and rules for making
and receiving data calls in your area.
Note! Your phone will remain in Data/Fax profile until your
phone cable is disconnected.
Note! To avoid unnecessary airtime charges, terminate your
data calls as soon as you have finished transferring files
by pressing the NO key. Some software can be set to do
this automatically.

You called a number for which you have set call
restrictions.
The battery does not seem to charge to full capac-
ity.
Condition the battery by fully discharging and
charging it three times. Or, if your phone came with
a desktop charger, use the conditioning function on
the desktop charger to condition the battery.
You entered an incorrect security code. Enter the
correct security code.
The battery power is low. The indicator light will
flash red. When the phone shuts itself off, replace
the battery with a fully charged one, or use an alter-
nate power source, such as a travel charger.
Calls are being dropped.

You are probably in a geographic area with minimal
service. Wait until the signal strength indicator in
your phone's display shows a high relative signal
strength (more bars) before trying a call. Make note
of geographic locations where calls are dropped and
contact your service provider.
Your text message memory is full. Erase some
stored messages to free up memory for new mes-
sages.

This is a common occurrence. Transmitters are set
in geographic areas and coverage is not 100% all of
the time. Signal strength varies as you travel between
cells.
