10 Pocket PC Phone User's Guide
Important: Read this information before using your mobile phone.
As this mobile phone is equipped with a fixed (non-retractable) antenna, some
paragraphs in the below text may not be applicable.

Antenna care

Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized
antennas, modifications, or attachments 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.
Tips on efficient operation
For your phone to operate most efficiently:
•
Extend your antenna fully
(if applicable).
•
Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when the phone is in use. Contact with
the antenna affects call quality and may cause the phone to operate at a higher
power level than otherwise needed.
Driving
Laws pertaining to the use of mobile phones while driving vary significantly
from state-to-state and sometimes even from locality-to-locality within states.
For example, some areas 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, Siemens recommends that persons check the laws
for the areas in which they drive or will be driving. For areas 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:
•
Give full attention to driving – driving safely is your first responsibility;
