2. Battery installation and  
charging  
Before you can use your new phone, you need to attach and  
charge the battery.  
Attaching the battery  
To attach the battery, place it  
on the back of the phone as  
shown and slide it toward the  
top of the phone until it clicks  
into place.  
Battery charging  
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable NiMH or Li-Ion  
battery. Note that a new NiMH battery’s full performance is  
achieved only after two or three complete charge and  
discharge cycles. For charging times, see ‘Charging times’ on  
How to charge your battery  
Connect the lead from the charger to the bottom of your  
phone or to a charging stand. Then plug the charger into a  
standard wall outlet.  
When the battery is charging, the battery strength indicator  
on the right side of the display scrolls.  
Note: When you charge the battery for the first time, the  
battery strength indicator will not scroll the entire time; this  
is normal.  
3
         
Problems charging  
If your phone displays Not charging, charging is suspended.  
Check that the battery is connected to an approved  
charging device. If the battery is very hot or cold, wait for a  
while; charging will automatically resume after the battery  
is restored to its normal operating state. If charging still  
fails, contact your dealer.  
When is charging complete?  
When the charge indicators stop scrolling, your  
phone is considered fully charged. However, a  
slight increase in charge may occur if you leave  
your phone connected to the charger.  
When is a good time to charge?  
You can charge anytime, but remember that when your  
phone displays Battery low, you only have a couple of  
minutes of talk time left.  
Can I make calls while charging?  
Yes, but depending on the charger used, your battery may  
not charge during a call.  
Discharging NiMH batteries  
For good operation times, discharge NiMH batteries 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 available for your phone). Do not  
attempt to discharge the battery by any other means.  
4
 
Removing the battery  
Note: Switch off the phone before removing the battery!  
1
Press and hold the  
button at the top of the  
battery.  
2
3
Slide the battery toward  
the bottom of the phone.  
Lift the battery off the  
phone.  
Important battery information  
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.  
Use only batteries approved by the phone manufacturer and  
recharge your battery only with the chargers approved by the  
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.  
Temperature extremes will affect the ability of your battery to  
charge: allow it to cool down or warm up first.  
Use the battery only for its intended purpose.  
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 of the + and - terminals of 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.  
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  
59º F and 77º F (15º C and 25º C). A phone with a hot or cold  
battery may temporarily not work, even when the battery is fully  
charged. NiMH batteries’ performance is particularly limited in  
temperatures below 14º F (-10º C). Li-Ion batteries’ performance  
is particularly limited in temperatures below 32º F (0º C).  
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire!  
Dispose of used batteries in accordance with any local  
regulations.

WARNING! Do not switch on the phone when wireless phone  
use is prohibited or when it may cause interference or danger.  
About the antenna  
Your Nokia phone has a fixed-length antenna. Do not  
attempt to extend or remove it.  
Normal position  
Hold the phone as you would any other telephone, with the  
antenna pointed up and over your shoulder.  
Tips on efficient operation  
As with any other radio transmitting device, do not touch  
the antenna unnecessarily when the phone is switched on.  
Contact with the antenna affects call quality and may cause  
the phone to operate at a higher power level than otherwise  
needed.  
Checking signal strength  
Your phone operates on radio waves. Radio signal coverage  
is maintained by a wireless network, and the quality of calls  
on your phone depends on the strength of the wireless radio  
signal.  
14  
             
Get a strong signal  
When you are at the start screen (see page 7) or in  
a call, the strength of the radio signal is indicated  
by the signal indicators on the left side of your  
phone’s display. These indicators scroll as the  
signal strength increases and decreases.  
To improve your phone’s reception, try moving your phone  
slightly. If you’re inside a building, move toward a window.

Press Call.  
IMPORTANT!  
This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio  
signals, wireless and landline networks as well as user-  
programmed functions which cannot guarantee connection  
in all conditions. Therefore you should never rely solely upon  
any wireless 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 signal  
strength. Emergency calls may not be possible on all wireless  
phone networks or when certain network services and/or  
phone features are in use. Check with local service providers.  
If certain features are in use (Keyguard, call restrictions, 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.  
When making an emergency call, remember to give all the  
necessary information as accurately as possible.  
Remember that your wireless 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.

15. Reference information  
Important safety information  
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.  
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!  
Operating environment  
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.  
When connecting the phone or any accessory to another device, read  
its user’s guide for detailed safety instructions. Do not connect  
incompatible products.  
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 (held to your ear with  
the antenna pointing over your shoulder).  
Electronic devices  
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency  
(RF) signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be  
shielded against the RF signals from your wireless phone.  
Pacemakers  
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of  
6 inches (20 cm.) be maintained between a handheld wireless phone  
and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker.  
These recommendations are consistent with the independent research  
by and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.  
Persons with pacemakers:  
Should always keep the phone more than 6 inches (20 cm) from  
their pacemaker when the phone is switched on;  
Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;  
Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the  
potential for interference.  
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking  
place, switch off your phone immediately.  
64  
     
Hearing aids  
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids.  
In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your  
service provider.  
Other medical devices  
Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, including cellular  
phones, may interfere with the functionality of inadequately  
protected medical devices. Consult a physician or the manufacturer  
of the medical device to determine if they are adequately shielded  
from external RF energy or if you have any questions. Switch off your  
phone in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these  
areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be  
using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.  
Vehicles  
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded  
electronic systems in motor vehicles (e.g. electronic fuel injection  
systems, electronic anti-skid (anti-lock) braking systems, electronic  
speed control systems, air bag systems). Check with the manufacturer  
or its representative regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the  
manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.  
Posted facilities  
Switch your phone off in any facility where posted notices so require.  
Potentially explosive atmospheres  
Switch off your phone when in any area with a potentially explosive  
atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas  
could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.  
Users are advised to switch off the phone while at a refueling 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.  
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not  
always clearly marked. They include below deck on boats; 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  
Only qualified personnel should service the phone, or install the  
phone in a vehicle. Faulty installation or service may be dangerous  
and may invalidate any warranty which may apply to the unit.  
Check regularly that all wireless phone equipment in your vehicle is  
mounted and operating properly.  
65  
Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases or explosive materials  
in the same compartment as the phone, its parts or accessories.  
For vehicles equipped with an air bag, remember that 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 injury could result.  
Switch off your phone before boarding an aircraft. The use of wireless  
telephones in an aircraft may be dangerous to the operation of the  
aircraft, disrupt the wireless telephone network and may be illegal.  
Failure to observe these instructions may lead to the suspension or  
denial of telephone services to the offender, or legal action, or both.  
Emergency calls  
IMPORTANT!  
This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio signals,  
wireless and landline networks as well as user- programmed  
functions which cannot guarantee connection in all conditions.  
Therefore, you should never rely solely upon any wireless 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 signal strength. Emergency  
calls may not be possible on all wireless phone networks or when  
certain network services and/or phone features are in use. Check  
with local service providers.  
Making an emergency call  
1
If the phone is not on, switch it on.  
2
Press and hold the  
key for several seconds to  
ready the phone for calls.  
3
4
Key in the emergency number for your present location  
(e.g. 911 or other official emergency number). Emergency  
numbers vary by location.  
Press Call  
If certain features are in use (Keyguard, call restrictions, 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.  
When making an emergency call, remember to give all the necessary  
information as accurately as possible. Remember that your wireless  
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.

Radio frequency (RF) signals  
THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS  
FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.  
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed  
and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure  
to radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications  
Commission of the U.S. Government. These limits are part of compre-  
hensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the  
general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were  
developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic  
and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a  
substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons,  
regardless of age and health.  
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit  
of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR.  
The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg.* Tests for SAR are conducted  
using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the  
phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested  
frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest  
certified power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operating  
can be well below the maximum value. This is because the phone is  
designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the  
power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to  
a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.  
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be  
tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit  
established by the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure.  
The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear) as  
required by the FCC for each model. The highest SAR value for this  
model phone when tested for use at the ear is 1.25 W/kg. While there  
may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at  
various positions, they all meet the government requirement.  
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone  
with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC  
RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on  
file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section  
_____________________________________________________  
*In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones  
used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of  
tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to  
give additional protection for the public and to account for any  
variations in measurements.

Care and maintenance  
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 allow you to enjoy this product  
for many years. When using your phone, battery, charger, OR any  
accessory:  
Keep it and all its parts and accessories out of small children’s  
reach.  
Keep it dry. Precipitation, humidity and liquids contain minerals  
that will corrode electronic circuits.  
Do not use or store it in dusty, dirty areas as its moving parts can  
be damaged.  
Do not store it in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the  
life of electronic devices, damage batteries, and warp or melt  
certain plastics.  
Do not store it in cold areas. When the phone warms up (to its  
normal operating temperature), moisture can form inside the  
phone, which may damage the phone's electronic circuit boards.  
Do not attempt to open it. Non-expert handling of the device  
may damage it.  
Do not drop, knock or shake it. Rough handling can break  
internal circuit boards.  
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong  
detergents to clean it. Wipe it with a soft cloth slightly  
dampened in a mild soap-and-water solution.  
Do not paint it. Paint can clog the device’s moving parts and  
prevent proper operation.  
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna.  
Unauthorized antennas, modifications or attachments could  
damage the phone and may violate regulations governing radio  
devices.  
If the phone, battery, charger, or any accessory is not working  
properly, take it to your nearest qualified service facility.  
The personnel there will assist you, and if necessary, arrange for  
service.

17. NOKIA One-Year Limited  
Warranty  
Nokia Inc. (“Nokia”) warrants that this cellular phone (“Product”) is  
free from defects in material and workmanship that result in Product  
failure during normal usage, according to the following terms and  
conditions:  
1. The limited warranty for the Product extends for ONE (1) year  
beginning on the date of the purchase of the Product.  
2. The limited warranty extends to the original purchaser of the  
Product (“Consumer”) and is not assignable or transferable to any  
subsequent purchaser/end-user.  
3. The limited warranty extends only to Consumers who purchase the  
Product in the United States.  
4. During the limited warranty period, Nokia will repair, or replace, at  
Nokia's option, any defective parts, or any parts that will not properly  
operate for their intended use with new or factory rebuilt replacement  
items if such repair or replacement is needed because of product  
malfunction or failure during normal usage. No charge will be made to

operative parts. Nokia's limit of liability under the limited warranty  
shall be the actual cash value of the Product at the time the Consumer  
returns the Product for repair, determined by the price paid by the  
Consumer for the Product less a reasonable amount for usage. Nokia  
shall not be liable for any other losses or damages. These remedies are  
the Consumer’s exclusive remedies for breach of warranty.  
5. Upon request from Nokia, the Consumer must prove the date of  
the original purchase of the Product by a dated bill of sale or dated  
itemized receipt.  
6. The Consumer shall bear the cost of shipping the Product to Nokia  
in Melbourne, Florida. Nokia shall bear the cost of shipping the  
Product back to the Consumer after the completion of service under  
this limited warranty.  
7. The Consumer shall have no coverage or benefits under this  
limited warranty if any of the following conditions are applicable:  
a) The Product has been subject to abnormal use, abnormal conditions,  
improper storage, exposure to moisture or dampness, unauthorized

8. If a problem develops during the limited warranty period, the  
Consumer shall take the following step-by-step procedure:  
a) The Consumer shall return the Product to the place of purchase for  
repair or replacement processing.  
b) If “a” is not convenient because of distance (more than 50 miles)  
or for other good cause, the Consumer shall ship the Product prepaid  
and insured to:  
Nokia Inc.  
Attn: Repair Department  
795 West Nasa Blvd.  
Melbourne, FL. 32901  
c) The Consumer shall include a return address, daytime phone  
number and/or fax number, complete description of the problem,

for any expenses related to reinstallation of the Product.  
e) Nokia will repair or authorize the repair of the Product under the  
limited warranty within 30 days after receipt of the Product by Nokia  
or an Nokia authorized service center. If Nokia cannot perform repair  
covered under this limited warranty within 30 days, or after a  
reasonable number of attempts to repair the same defect, Nokia at  
its option, will provide a replacement Product or refund the purchase  
price of the Product less a reasonable amount for usage.  
f) If the Product is returned to Nokia during the limited warranty  
period, but the problem with the Product is not covered under the  
terms and conditions of this limited warranty, the Consumer will be  
notified and given an estimate of the charges the Consumer must  
pay to have the Product repaired, with all shipping charges billed to  
71  
the Consumer. If the estimate is refused, the Product will be returned  
freight collect. If the Product is returned to Nokia after the expiration  
of the limited warranty period, Nokia's normal service policies shall  
apply and the Consumer will be responsible for all shipping charges.  
9. The Product consists of newly assembled equipment that may  
contain used components that have been reprocessed to allow  
machine compliance with Product performance and reliability  
specifications.  
10. ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, OR FITNESS  
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR USE, SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE  
DURATION OF THE FOREGOING LIMITED WRITTEN WARRANTY.  
OTHERWISE, THE FOREGOING LIMITED WARRANTY IS THE CONSUMER'S  
SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AND IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER  
WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. NOKIA SHALL NOT BE LIABLE  
FOR SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES,  
INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOSS OF ANTICIPATED BENEFITS  
OR PROFITS, LOSS OF SAVINGS OR REVENUE, PUNITIVE DAMAGES,  
LOSS OF USE OF THE PRODUCT OR ANY ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT,  
COST OF CAPITAL, COST OF ANY SUBSTITUTE EQUIPMENT OR  
FACILITIES, DOWNTIME, THE CLAIMS OF ANY THIRD PARTIES,  
INCLUDING CUSTOMERS, AND INJURY TO PROPERTY, RESULTING

BREACH OF THE WARRANTY, BREACH OF CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE,  
STRICT TORT, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY, EVEN IF  
NOKIA KNEW OF THE LIKELIHOOD OF SUCH DAMAGES. NOKIA SHALL  
NOT BE LIABLE FOR DELAY IN RENDERING SERVICE UNDER THE  
LIMITED WARRANTY, OR LOSS OF USE DURING THE PERIOD THAT THE  
PRODUCT IS BEING REPAIRED.  
11. Some states do not allow limitation of how long an implied  
warranty lasts, so the above one-year warranty limitation may not  
apply to you (the Consumer). Some states do not allow the exclusion  
or limitation of incidental and consequential damages, so certain of  
the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you (the  
Consumer). This limited warranty gives the Consumer specific legal  
rights and the Consumer may also have other rights which vary from  
state to state.  
12. Nokia neither assumes nor authorizes any authorized service  
center or any other person or entity to assume for it any other  
obligation or liability beyond that which is expressly provided for in  
this limited warranty including the provider or seller of any extended  
warranty or service agreement.  
13. This is the entire warranty between Nokia and the Consumer, and  
supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements or  
understandings, oral or written, and all communications relating to  
the Product, and no representation, promise or condition not  
contained herein shall modify these terms.  
72  
14. This limited warranty allocates the risk of failure of the Product  
between the Consumer and Nokia. The allocation is recognized by  
the Consumer and is reflected in the purchase price of the Product.  
15. Any action or lawsuit for breach of warranty must be  
commenced within eighteen (18) months following delivery of the
