Phone Care and Operation

Ericsson suggests you read and observe the following for
safe care and operation of your phone:
• Do not allow children to play with your phone.
They could hurt themselves or others, or could acci-
dentally damage the phone. Your phone may con-
tain small parts that could be detached and create a
choking hazard.
• Do not expose your mobile phone to moisture or
extreme temperatures.
• Only Ericsson original accessories are recom-
mended. Failure to use them may result in loss of
performance or product damage, and will void the
warranty.
• Do not attempt to disassemble the phone. Doing so
will void warranty. This phone does not contain
consumer serviceable components. Service should
only be performed by Authorized Service Centers.
• Do not allow objects to fall on, or liquids to spill on
phone.
• Connect AC (power supply) only to designated
power sources as marked on the phone.
• To reduce risk of damage, remove the electrical
cord from the outlet by pulling the AC adapter
rather than the cord.

• Make sure the electric cord is located so that it will
not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise sub-
jected to damage or stress.
• To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug the unit
from the power source before attempting any clean-
ing. Once unplugged, use a soft cloth lightly damp-
ened with water for cleaning.
• DANGER - Never alter the AC cord or plug. If the
plug will not fit into the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician. Improper con-
nection can result in risk of electric shock.
• Don't continue to twist the antenna after it has
been inserted. Excess twisting will damage the
antenna.
• Be cautious if removing your antenna. A detached
antenna may be a choking hazard for children.
How to use your phone for optimum performance with
minimum power consumption:
• Hold the phone as you would any other telephone.
While speaking directly into the mouthpiece, angle
the antenna in a direction up and over your shoul-
der. If the antenna is extendable/retractable, it
should be extended during a call.
• Do not hold the antenna when the phone is in use.
Holding the antenna affects call quality, may cause
the phone to operate at a higher power level than
needed and shortens talk and standby times.
