Safety precautions
NOTE:
Do not exceed the mains volt-
age (V) specified on the power
supply unit.
ions
Review these operating instructions and
safety precautions carefully before use.
Do not use mobile phone in hos-
pitals or in the vicinity of medical
devices, such as pacemakers or
hearing aids. Mobile phones
may interfere with the operation
of these devices. Keep a mini-
mum distance of 8" between
pacemaker and mobile phone.
When using the mobile phone
hold it to the ear farthest from
the pacemaker.
Only use original Siemens bat-
teries (100% mercury-free) and
charging devices. Use of non-
Siemens batteries and/or charg-
ing devices may cause explo-
sion resulting in serious injury or
property damage.
It is recommended that you
open the phone only to replace
the battery (100% mercury-free)
or SIM card. Do not open the
battery under any circumstanc-
es. Any other changes to this
device may invalidate the FCC
authorization required for opera-
tion of the unit, and are strictly
prohibited.
Always use the handsfree kit to
make calls while driving (p. 98).
Turn off mobile phone while
aboard any aircraft. To prevent
accidental activation, see
(p. 60).
Dispose of used batteries and
phones in accordance with ap-
plicable laws and safety regula-
tions.
Do not use mobile phone near
gas stations, fuel depots, chem-
ical plants or blasting opera-
tions. Mobile phones may cause
interference with the operation
of technical installations.
Mobile phones may interfere
with the operation of nearby
TVs, radios or PCs.
The ring tone and hands-free
speakerarereproducedthrough
the earpiece. Never hold the
handset to your ear when the
handset is ringing or when using
the hands-free speaker mode.
Seriousandpermanentdamage
could occur to your hearing!
Only use original Siemens ac-
cessories in order to avoid pos-
sible injury and property
damage and to ensure compli-
ance with applicable laws and
regulations.
Improper use invalidates the warranty!

Safety Information
nfor-
Driving
Important
Read this information before using
your wireless handheld phone.
Laws pertaining to the use of mobile
phones while driving vary signifi-
cantly from state-to-state and some-
times even from locality-to-locality
within states. For example, some ar-
eas may allow persons to use their
mobile phones only if they employ a
hands-free device, and some areas
may prohibit the use of mobile
phones entirely. Accordingly, Sie-
mens recommends that persons
check the laws for the areas in which
they drive or will be driving. For are-
as where the use of mobile phones
while driving is permitted, Siemens
encourages persons to use their
phones responsibly and to employ
hands-free devices. Also, if using
your phone while driving, please:
As this mobile phone is equipped
with a fixed (non-retractable) an-
tenna, some paragraphs in the be-
low text may not be applicable.
Antenna care
Use only the supplied or an approved
replacement antenna. Unauthorized
antennas, modifications, or attach-
ments could damage the phone and
may violate FCC regulations.
Phone operation
Normal position
Hold the phone as you would any
other telephone with the antenna
pointed up and over your shoulder.
• Give full attention to driving –
driving safely is your first responsi-
bility;
Tips on efficient operation
• Use hands-free operation, if avail-
able;
For your phone to operate most effi-
ciently:
• Pull off the road and park before
making or answering a call, if driv-
ing conditions so require.
• Extend your antenna fully (if appli-
cable).
• Do not touch the antenna unnec-
essarily when the phone is in use.
Contact with the antenna affects
call quality and may cause the
phone to operate at a higher pow-
er level than otherwise needed.
5
Safety Information
For vehicles equipped with Air
Persons with pacemakers:
Bags
• should ALWAYS keep the phone
more than six inches from their
pacemaker when the phone is
turned ON;
An air bag inflates with great force.
DO NOT place objects, including ei-
ther installed or portable wireless
equipment, in the area over the air
bag or in the air bag deployment ar-
ea. If in-vehicle wireless equipment
is improperly installed and the air
bag inflates, serious injury could re-
sult.
• should not carry the phone in a
breast pocket;
• should use the ear opposite the
pacemaker to minimize the poten-
tial for interference;
• should turn the phone OFF imme-
diately if there is any reason to
suspect that interference is taking
place.
Electronic devices
Most modern electronic equipment
is shielded from radiofrequency (RF)
signals. However, certain electronic
equipment may not be shielded
against the RF signals from your
wireless phone.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may in-
terfere with some hearing aids. In
the event of such interference, you
may want to consult your service
provider or your hearing aid manu-
facturer to discuss alternatives.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturer’s
Association recommends that a min-
imum separation of six inches (6”) be
maintained between a handheld
wireless phone and a pacemaker to
avoid potential interference with the
pacemaker. These recommenda-
tions are consistent with the inde-
pendent research by and recommen-
dations of Wireless Technology
Research.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medi-
cal devices, consult the manufactur-
ers of your devices to determine if
they are adequately shielded from
external RF energy. Your physician
may be able to assist you in obtain-
ing this information.
Turn your phone OFF in health care
facilities when any regulations post-
ed 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.
6
Safety Information
could cause an explosion or fire re-
sulting in bodily injury or even
death.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly in-
stalled or inadequately shielded
electronic systems in motor vehicles.
Check with the manufacturer or its
representative regarding your vehi-
cle. You should also consult the
manufacturer of any equipment that
has been added to your vehicle.
Areas with a potentially explosive at-
mosphere are often but not always
clearly marked. They include: fueling
areas such as gasoline stations; be-
low 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 parti-
cles, such as grain, dust or metal
powders; and any other area where
you would normally be advised to
turn off your vehicle engine.
Posted Facilities
Turn your phone OFF in any facility
where posted notices so require.
Airplanes
FCC and Airline Regulations prohibit
using your phone while in the air.
Turn your phone OFF before board-
ing an airplane.
Emergency calls (SOS)
Your wireless phone can be used to
make emergency calls. You can
make an emergency call from the
main display screen. Enter the local
emergency number such as 911 and
Check and comply with the policy of
your airline regarding the use of your
phone while the airplane is on the
ground.
then press the key
A
This phone, like any wireless phone,
operates using radio signals, wire-
less and landline networks, and user-
programmed functions. Because of
this, connections in all conditions
cannot be guaranteed. Therefore,
you should never rely solely on any
wireless phone for essential commu-
nications (for example, medical
emergencies). Remember - to make
or receive any calls, the phone must
be switched on and be used in a serv-
ice area that has adequate signal
strength. Emergency calls might not
Blasting areas
To avoid interfering with blasting op-
erations, turn your phone OFF when
in a “blasting area” or in areas post-
ed: “Turn off two-way radio.” Obey
all signs and instructions.
Potentially explosive
atmospheres
Turn your phone OFF when in any ar-
ea with a potentially explosive at-
mosphere and obey all signs and in-
structions. Sparks in such areas

Safety Information
be possible on all wireless phone
networks or when certain network
servicesorphone features areinuse.
Check with local service providers re-
garding their network features.
Always make certain that your
phone is properly charged before at-
tempting any emergency calls. If
you allow your battery to discharge,
you will be unable to receive or make
calls, including emergency calls. You
must then wait a few minutes after
the charging begins to place any
emergency calls.
When making an emergency call, re-
member to give all of the necessary
information as accurately as possi-
ble. Remember that your wireless
phone might be the only means of
communication at the scene of an
accident, therefore you should not
terminate the call until given permis-
sion to do so.

THIS SIEMENS C56 PHONE MEETS
THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIRE-
MENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO
WAVES.
tiple power levels so as to use only
the power required to reach the net-
work. In general, the closer you are
to a wireless base station antenna,
the lower the power output.
c
tion
Your wireless Siemens C56 phone is
a radio transmitter and receiver. It is
designed and manufactured not to
exceed the emission limits for expo-
sure to radiofrequency (RF) energy
set by the Federal Communications
Commission of the U.S. Govern-
ment. These limits are part of com-
prehensive guidelines and establish
permitted levels of RF energy for the
general population. The guidelines
are based on standards that were de-
veloped by independent scientific
organizations through periodic and
thorough evaluation of scientific
studies. The standards include a sub-
stantial safety margin designed to
assure the safety of all persons, re-
gardless of age and health.
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 require-
ment for safe exposure. The tests are
performed in positions and locations
(for example, at the ear and worn on
the body) as required by the FCC for
each model. The highest SAR value
for this Siemens C56 phone when
tested for use at the ear is 0.88 W/kg,
and when worn on the body, as de-
scribed in this user guide, is
0.58 W/kg. (Body-worn measure-
ments differ among phone models,
depending upon available accesso-
ries and FCC requirements.) While
there may be differences between
the SAR levels of various phones and
at various positions, they all meet
the government requirement for
safe exposure.
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 speci-
fied by the FCC with the phone trans-
mitting 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 mul-
The FCC has granted an Equipment
Authorization for this Siemens C56
phone with all reported SAR levels
evaluated as in compliance with the
FCC RF emission guidelines. SAR in-
formation on this Siemens C56
phone is on file with the FCC and can
be found under the Display Grant
section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid
after searching on FCC ID PWX-C56.
9
SAR (Specific Absorption Rate)
For body worn operation, to main-
tain compliance with FCC RF expo-
sure guidelines, use only Siemens
approved accessories. When carry-
ing the phone while it is on, use the
specific Siemens belt clip that has
been tested for compliance.
Use of non-Siemens-approved acces-
sories may violate FCC RF exposure
guidelines and should be avoided.
* 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 sub-
stantial margin of safety to give additional
protection for the public and to account for
any variations in measurements.
Additional information on Specific Absorp-
tion Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellu-
lar Telecommunications Industry
Association (CTIA) web-site at:

Quality declaration for battery
Service numbers
The capacity of your mobile phone
battery is reduced each time you
charge/discharge it. Storing the bat-
tery at temperatures that are too
high or too low also causes a gradual
loss of capacity. This can cause the
operating times of your mobile
phone to reduce significantly per us-
age cycle.
Numbers that you are offered by
your service provider may be stored
in the Phonebook. You can call local
or nationwide information services
or use services of the service provid-
er.
Signal strength
The battery is, however, designed to
be charged and fully discharged
within a period of six months from
when the mobile phone was pur-
chased. Following this six-month pe-
riod, we recommend replacing your
battery if you experience a signifi-
cant drop in performance. Only pur-
chase original Siemens batteries.

A
been done to address these ques-
tions, no clear picture of the biologi-
cal effects of this type of radiation
has emerged to date. Thus, the avail-
able science does not allow us to
conclude that mobile phones are ab-
solutely safe, or that they are unsafe.
However, the available scientific evi-
dence does not demonstrate ad-
verse health effects associated with
the use of mobile phones.
The U.S. Food and Drug
Administration's (FDA) Center
for Devices and Radiological
Health Consumer Update on
Mobile Phones
FDA has been receiving inquiries
about the safety of mobile phones,
including cellular phones and PCS
phones. The following summarizes
what is know — and what remains
unknown — about whether these
products can pose a hazard to
health, and what can be done to
minimize any potential risk. This in-
formation may be used to respond
to questions.
What kinds of phones are in question?
Questions have been raised about
hand-held mobile phones, the kind
that have a built-in antenna that is
positioned close to the user's head
during normal telephone conversa-
tion. These types of mobile phones
are of concern because of the short
distance between the phone's an-
tenna — the primary source of the
RF — and the person's head. The ex-
posure to RF from mobile phones in
which the antenna is located at
greater distances from the user (on
the outside of a car, for example) is
drastically lower than that from
hand-held phones, because a per-
son's RF exposure decreases rapidly
with distance from the source. The
safety of so-called “cordless phones,”
which have a base unit connected to
the telephone wiring in a house and
which operate at far lower power
levels and frequencies, has not been
questioned.
Why the concern?
Mobile phones emit low levels of ra-
dio frequency energy (i.e., radio fre-
quency radiation) in the microwave
range while being used. They also
emit very low levels of radio frequen-
cy energy (RF), considered non-sig-
nificant, when in the stand-by mode.
It is well known that high levels of RF
can produce biological damage
through heating effects (this is how
your microwave oven is able to cook
food). However, it is not known
whether, to what extent, or through
what mechanism, lower levels of RF
might cause adverse health effects
as well. Although some research has

ty of mobile phones. This research
has resulted in two findings in partic-
ular that merit additional study:
Briefly, there is not enough evidence
to know for sure, either way; howev-
er, research efforts are on-going.
The existing scientific evidence is
conflicting and many of the studies
that have been done to date have
suffered from flaws in their research
methods. Animal experiments inves-
tigating the effects of RF exposures
characteristic of mobile phones have
yielded conflicting results. A few ani-
mal studies, however, have suggest-
ed that low levels of RF could accel-
erate the development of cancer in
laboratory animals. In one study,
mice genetically altered to be predis-
posed to developing one type of can-
cer developed more than twice as
many such cancers when they were
exposed to RF energy compared to
controls. There is much uncertainty
among scientists about whether re-
sults obtained from animal studies
apply to the use of mobile phones.
First, it is uncertain how to apply the
results obtained in rats and mice to
humans. Second, many of the stud-
ies showed increased tumor devel-
opment used animals that had al-
ready been treated with cancer-
causing chemicals, and other studies
exposed the animals to the RF virtu-
ally continuously — up to 22 hours
per day.
1. In a hospital-based, case-control
study, researchers looked for an as-
sociation between mobile phone use
and either glioma (a type of brain
cancer) or acoustic neuroma (a be-
nign tumor of the nerve sheath). No
statistically significant association
was found between mobile phone
use and acoustic neuroma. There
was also no association between
mobile phone use and gliomas when
all types of gliomas were considered
together. It should be noted that the
average length of mobile phone ex-
posure in this study was less than
three years.
When 20 types of glioma were con-
sidered separately, however, an as-
sociation was found between mobile
phone use and one rare type of glio-
ma, neuroepithelliomatous tumors.
It is possible with multiple compari-
sons of the same sample that this as-
sociation occurred by chance. More-
over, the risk did not increase with
how often the mobile phone was
used, or the length of the calls. In
fact, the risk actually decreased with
cumulative hours of mobile phone
use. Most cancer causing agents in-
crease risk with increased exposure.
An ongoing study of brain cancers by
the National Cancer Institute is ex-
pected to bear on the accuracy and
For the past five years in the United
States, the mobile phone industry

Two other studies of interest have
been reported recently in the litera-
ture:
battery of laboratory tests to assess
the effects of exposure to mobile
phone RF on genetic material. These
included tests for several kinds of ab-
normalities, including mutations,
chromosomal aberrations, DNA
• Two groups of 18 people were ex-
posed to simulated mobile phone
signals under laboratory condi-
tions while they performed cogni-
tive function tests. There were no
changes in the subjects' ability to
recall words, numbers, or pic-
strand breaks, and structural chang-
es in the genetic material of blood
cells called lymphocytes. None of
the tests showed any effect of the RF
except for the micronucleus assay,
which detects structural effects on
the genetic material. The cells in this
assay showed changes after expo-
sure to simulated cell phone radia-
tion, but only after 24 hours of expo-
sure. It is possible that exposing the
test cells to radiation for this long re-
sulted in heating. Since this assay is
known to be sensitive to heating,
heat alone could have caused the ab-
normalities to occur. The data al-
ready in the literature on the re-
sponse of the micronucleus assay to
RF are conflicting. Thus follow-up re-
tures, or in their spatial memory,
but they were able to make choic-
es more quickly in one visual test
when they were exposed to simu-
lated mobile phone signals. This
was the only change noted among
more than 20 variables com-

pared.
• In a study of 209 brain tumor cas-
es and 425 matched controls,
there was no increased risk of
brain tumors associated with mo-
bile phone use. When tumors did
exist in certain locations, howev-
er, they were more likely to be on
the side of the head where the
mobile phone was used. Because
this occurred in only a small num-
ber of cases, the increased likeli-
hood was too small to be

FDA is currently working with gov-

groups to ensure the proper follow-
up to these industry-funded research
findings. Collaboration with the Cel-

Association (CTIA) in particular is ex-
pected to lead to FDA providing re-
search recommendations and scien-

In summary, we do not have enough
information at this point to assure
the public that there are, or are not,
any low incident health problems as-
sociated with use of mobile phones.

called a case-control study. The cur-
rent case-control study of brain can-
cers by the National Cancer Institute,
as well as the follow-up research to
be sponsored by industry, will begin
to generate this type of information.
What is known about cases of human
cancer that have been reported in users
of hand-held mobile phones?
What is FDA's role concerning the safety
of mobile phones?
Some people who have used mobile
phones have been diagnosed with
brain cancer. But it is important to
understand that this type of cancer
also occurs among people who have
not used mobile phones. In fact,
brain cancer occurs in the U.S. popu-
lation at a rate of about 6 new cases
per 100,000 people each year. At
that rate, assuming 80 million users
of mobile phones (a number increas-
ing at a rate of about 1 million per
month), about 4800 cases of brain
cancer would be expected each year
among those 80 million people,
whether or not they used their
Under the law, FDA does not review
the safety of radiation emitting con-
sumer products such as mobile
phones before marketing, as it does
with new drugs or medical devices.
However, the agency has authority
to take action if mobile phones are
shown to emit radiation at a level
that is hazardous to the user. In such
a case, FDA could require the manu-
facturers of mobile phones to notify
users of the health hazard and to re-
pair, replace or recall the phones so
that the hazard no longer exists.
Although the existing scientific data
do not justify FDA regulatory actions
at this time, FDA has urged the mo-
bile phone industry to take a number
of steps to assure public safety. The
agency has recommended that the

phones. Thus it is not possible to tell
whether any individual's cancer
arose because of the phone, or
whether it would have happened
anyway. A key question is whether
the risk of getting a particular form
of cancer is greater among people
who use mobile phones than among
the rest of the population. One way
to answer that question is to com-
pare the usage of mobile phones

sible biological effects of RF of the

ple without brain cancer. This is

At the same time, FDA belongs to an
interagency working group of the
federal agencies that have responsi-
bility for different aspects of mobile
phone safety to ensure a coordinat-
ed effort at the federal level. These

Ten Driving Safety Tips
ving
Tips
When available, use a hands-free device.
A number of hands-free wireless
phone accessories are readily avail-
able today. Whether you choose an
installed mounted device for your
phone or a speaker phone accessory,
take advantage of these devices if
they are available to you.
Your Siemens wireless phone gives
you the power to communicate by
voice — almost anywhere, anytime.
But an important responsibility ac-
companies the benefits of wireless
phones, one that every user must
uphold.
Position your phone within easy reach.
Make sure you place your wireless
phone within easy reach and where
you can grab it without removing
your eyes from the road. If you get
an incoming call at an inconvenient
time, let your voicemail answer it for
you.
When driving a car, driving is your
first responsibility. When using your
wireless phone behind the wheel of
a car, practice good common sense
and remember the following tips:
Suspend conversations during hazard-
ous driving conditions or situations.
Let the person you are speaking to
know you are driving; if necessary,
suspend the call in heavy traffic or
hazardous weather conditions. Rain,
sleet, snow and ice can be hazard-
ous, but so is heavy traffic. As a driv-
er, your first responsibility is to pay
attention to the road.
Get to know your phone and its features
such as speed dial and redial.
Carefully read your instruction man-
ual and learn to take advantage of
valuable features most phones offer
including, automatic redial and
memory dial — most phones can
store up to 99 numbers in memory
dial. Also, work to memorize the
phone keypad so you can use the
speed dial function without taking
your attention off the road.
Do not take notes or look up phone num-
bers while driving.
If you are reading an address book or
business card while driving a car, or
writing a “to do” list, then you are not
watching where you are going. It’s
common sense. Don’t get caught in a
dangerous situation because you are
reading or writing and not paying at-
tention to the road or nearby vehi-
cles.
107
Ten Driving Safety Tips
Dial sensibly and assess the traffic.
Use your phone to help others in emer-
gencies.
If possible, place calls when you are
not moving or before pulling into
traffic. Try to plan your calls before
you begin your trip, or attempt to co-
incide your calls with times you may
be stopped at a stop sign, red light or
otherwise stationary. But if you need
to dial while driving, follow this sim-
ple tip — dial only a few numbers,
check the road and your mirrors,
then continue.
Your wireless phone provides you a
perfect opportunity to be a “good
Samaritan” in your community. If
you see an auto accident, crime in
progress or other serious emergen-
cies where lives are in danger, call 9-
1-1, as you would want others to do
for you.
Call roadside assistance or a special
wireless non-emergency assistance
number when necessary.
Do not engage in stressful or emotional
conversations that may be distracting.
Certain situations you encounter
while driving may require attention,
but are not urgent enough to merit a
call to 9-1-1. But you can still use
your wireless phone to lend a hand.
If you see a broken-down vehicle
posing no serious hazard, a broken
traffic signal, a minor traffic accident
where no one appears injured, or a
vehicle you know to be stolen, call
roadside assistance or other special
non-emergency wireless numbers.
Stressful or emotional conversations
and driving do not mix — they are
distracting and even dangerous
when you are behind the wheel.
Make people you are talking with
aware you are driving and if neces-
sary, suspend phone conversations
that have the potential to divert your
attention from the road.
Use your phone to call for help.
Your wireless phone is one of the
greatest tools you can own to pro-
tect yourself and your family in dan-
gerous situations — with your
phone at your side, help is only three
numbers away. Dial 9-1-1 in the case
of fire, traffic accident, road hazard,
ormedical emergency. Remember, it
is a free call on your wireless phone.
“The wireless industry reminds you to
use your phone safely when driving.”
