• EMERGENCY CALLS
Important:
This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio signals, wireless
and land line 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 (for example,
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 the battery is almost fully discharged when you connect a charger to
your phone, it might be necessary to wait a few minutes before you will
be able to make or receive calls.
Emergency numbers vary by location. If the official emergency number
that has been programmed into your phone differs from the number that
is used in your current location, do not use the emergency key 9 feature
(“Use emergency key 9” on page 53) to make the call. Instead, manually
enter the official number that is used in your current location, then press
.
If you’re playing a game, using the calculator, or editing (such as when
using the Minibrowser or editing a phone book entry), press
to
return to the Start screen before you make an emergency call.

Depending on your provider, you may not be able to use the emergency
key 9 feature if any of the following conditions exist:
•
Emergency key 9 feature is not activated (“Use emergency key 9” on
page 53).
•
Keyguard is active (“Use Keyguard to lock the keypad” on page 58).
•
Phone is locked (“Protect your phone with phone lock” on page 56).
•
Call restriction that prevents the call is active (“Restrict calls” on
page 59).
Note: You may need to turn those features off before you can make an
emergency call. Consult this document and your local service provider.
Make an emergency call
Depending on your phone settings, you may be able to use the emergency
key
feature to make the call. (See “Use emergency key 9” on page 53.)
1
If the phone is not on, switch it on.
2
Enter the emergency number for your present location (emergency
numbers vary by location).
3
Press the Talk key
.
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 end the call until you have permission to do so.
Note: When you make the call, your phone changes to emergency call
mode. If you choose to exit this mode, emergency operators may
not be able to contact you.
Keep your phone in emergency call mode until emergency personnel arrive
on the scene. In emergency call mode, some menu items may not be available.
To exit emergency call mode, at the Start screen, press Exit. When the
question Restore normal service? appears, press OK.

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 radio
frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of
the U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive 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 1.6W/kilogram.* 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 (for example, at the ear and worn on
the body) as required by the FCC for each model. The highest SAR value for
this model phone as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the ear is
1.36 W/kilogram and when worn on the body, as described in this user
guide, is 1.26 W/kilogram. (Body-worn measurements differ among phone
models, depending upon available accessories 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.
21
[ 110 ]
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 of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID: GMLNSD-1AW.
For body worn operation, to maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure
guidelines, use only Nokia approved accessories. When carrying the phone
while it is on, place the phone in the specific Nokia belt-clip that has been
tested for compliance.
Use of non-Nokia-approved accessories 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/kilogram (W/kilogram) 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. SAR values may vary depending on national reporting
requirements and the network band. For SAR information in other regions
please look under product information at http://www.nokia.com.

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/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 antenna. Removal or replacement of the
antenna by anyone other than a Nokia authorized service center is an
unauthorized modification and invalidates the warranty, can 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.
