Battery quality
statement
The capacity of your mobile phone battery will re-
duce each time it is charged/ emptied. Storage at
too high or low temperatures will also result in a
gradual capacity loss. As a result the operating
time of your mobile phone may be considerably
reduced, even after a full 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 mo-
bile phone. After six months, if the battery is clearly
suffering from loss of performance, we recommend
that your replace it. Please buy only Siemens origi-
nal batteries.
Care and maintenance
Your phone has been designed and manufactured
to the highest of standards and should be treated
with great care. The suggestions below will help you
to enjoy your phone for many years.
• Protect your phone from moisture and humidity!
Precipitation, humidity and liquids contain miner-
als that will corrode electronic circuits. Should
your phone nonetheless become wet, discon-
nect it immediately from any power supply, re-
move the battery and leave the open phone to
dry at room temperature!
• Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty
areas. Its moving parts may become damaged.
• Do not store your phone in hot areas. High tem-
peratures can shorten the life of electronic
devices, damage batteries and warp or melt cer-
tain plastics.
• Do not store your phone in cold areas. When the
phone warms up again (to its normal ambient tem-
perature), moisture can form inside the phone,
which may damage electronic circuit boards.
• Do not drop, knock or shake your phone. Rough
handling can damage internal circuit 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 are not working properly, take them
to your nearest qualified service outlet. The
personnel there will assist you and, if necessary,
repair the device.
