Potentially explosive atmospheres
Turn your phone OFF 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.
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.
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 then press
the Call key. This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio signals, wireless and
landline networks, and user-programmed functions. Because of this, connections in all condi-
tions cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, you should never rely solely on any wireless phone for
essential communications (for example, medical emergencies). Remember - to make or receive
any calls, the phone must be switched on and be used in a service area that has adequate signal
strength. Emergency calls might not be possible on all wireless phone networks or when certain
network services or phone features are in use. Check with local service providers regarding
their network features.
Always make certain that your phone is properly charged before attempting any emergency
calls. If you allow your battery to discharge, you will be unable to receive or make calls, includ-
ing emergency calls. You must then wait a few minutes after the charging begins to place any
emergency calls.
When making an emergency call, remember to give all of the necessary information as accurately
as possible. 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 permission
to do so.
Batteries and Chargers
Only use original Siemens batteries (100% mercury-free) and charging devices. Use of non-
Siemens batteries and/or charging devices may cause explosion resulting in serious injury
and/or property damage. Use original Siemens accessories in order to avoid possible injury and
property damage and to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Improper use
invalidates the warranty.
