Care and maintenance

Care and maintenance
Your phone has been designed and manu-
factured to the highest of standards and
should be treated with great care. The sug-
gestions below will help you to enjoy your
phone for many years.
• Protect your phone from moisture and
humidity. Precipitation, humidity and liq-
uids contain minerals that will corrode
electronic circuits. Nevertheless, should
your phone become wet, disconnect it
immediately from the power supply to
avoid electric shock. Do not place your
phone (even to dry it) on/in a source of
heat such as a microwave oven, oven or
radiator. The phone may become over-
heated and possibly explode.
• Do not use or store the phone in dusty,
dirty areas. Its moving parts may be
damaged and the casing may become
deformed and discoloured.
• Do not store your phone in hot environ-
ments (e.g. vehicle instrument panel in the
summer). High temperatures can shorten
the life of electronic devices, damage bat-
teries and warp or melt certain plastics.
• Do not store your phone in cold environ-
ments. When the phone warms up again
(to its normal ambient temperature), mois-
ture can form inside the phone, which may
damage electronic circuit boards.
• Do not drop, knock or shake your phone.
Rough handling can damage internal cir-
cuit boards!
• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning
solvents, or strong detergents to clean the
phone!
The suggestions given above apply equally
to your phone, battery, charger and all
accessories. If any of these parts is not work-
ing properly, obtain fast and reliable help at
our service centres.
Battery quality statement
The capacity of your mobile phone battery
will reduce each time it is charged/emptied.
Storage at too high or low temperatures will
also result in a graduly capacity loss. As
a result the operating time of your mobile
phone may be considerably reduced, evan
after a rull recharge of the battery.
Regardless of this, the battery has been
designed and manufactured so that it can be
recharged and used for six months after the
purchase of your mobile phone. After six
months, if the battery is clearly suffering from
loss of performance, we recommend that
your replace it. Please buy only Siemens
original batteries.
Display quality
declaration
For technological reasons, a few small dots
with different colours may appear in the dis-
play in exceptional cases.
Just remember that the appearance of
brighter or darker dots generally does not
mean that a fault has occurred.
