Care and maintenance
Your phone has been designed and crafted
with great care and attention and should also
be treated with care. The suggestions 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. Should your phone
nonetheless become wet, disconnect it
immediately from any power supply,
remove 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
temperatures can shorten the life of elec-
tronic devices, damage batteries and warp
or melt certain plastics.
• Do not store your phone in cold areas.
When the phone warms up again (to its
normal ambient temperature), moisture
can form inside the phone, which may
damage electronic components.
• Do not drop, knock or shake your phone.
Rough handling can damage components
inside the device! Do not use harsh chem-
icals, cleaning solvents, or strong deter-
gents to clean the phone!
• The phone has better protection against
splashes, dust and knocks if the supplied
seals and the metal bracket are used as as
indicated in the assembly instructions
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.
Battery quality
declaration
The capacity of your mobile phone battery is
reduced each time you charge/discharge it.
Storing the battery at temperatures that are
too high or too low also causes a gradual
loss of capacity. This can significantly
reduce the operating times of your mobile
phone, even after it has been fully charged.
The battery is, however, designed to be
capable of being charged and discharged for
a period of six months from when the mobile
phone was purchased. Following this six-
month period, we recommend replacing your
battery if you experience a significant drop in
performance. Only purchase original Sie-
mens batteries.
Display quality
declaration
For technological reasons, a few small dots
with different colours may appear in the dis-
play in exceptional cases.
Please note that the appearance of brighter
or darker dots generally does not mean that
a fault has occurred.
