Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use

General

Since its introduction in the mid 1980s the mobile phone is one of the most exciting and innovative products ever developed. Your phone can help you to stay in touch with your office, your home, emergency services and others.

Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. When the phone is turned on it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF) energy.

Depending on the type of mobile phone you have purchased, it operates in different frequency ranges and employs commonly used modulation techniques. The system that handles your call when you are using your phone, controls the power level at which your phone transmits.

Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy

The International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection

(ICNIRP), sponsored by the World Health Organisation (WHO), published a statement in 1996 which sets limits for exposure to RF fields from handheld mobile phone. According to this statement, which is based on the available body of research, there is no evidence that mobile terminals meeting the recommended limits can cause any adverse health effects. All Ericsson telephones conform to the ICNIRP recommendations, and international exposure standards, such as:

● CENELEC European Pre-standard ENV50166-2

● ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992 (USA, Asia-Pacific)

If you want to limit RF exposure even further, you may choose to control the duration of your calls and operate your phone in the most power efficient manner.

Efficient Phone Operation

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 shoulder. If the antenna is extendable, 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 shorten talk and standby times.

Antenna Care and Replacement

● Do not bend the antenna since it is sensitive and since this will reduce its performance.

● Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. Consult your manual to see if you may change the antenna yourself. If so, use only an

Ericsson approved antenna. Otherwise, take your phone to a qualified service center for repair. Use only the designated Ericsson antenna.

● Do not use an antenna designed for any other type of portable telephone than the telephone you have purchased. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the phone and may violate the appropriate regulations.

Driving

Check the laws and regulations on the use of telephones in the areas where you drive.

If you are going to use your mobile phone while driving:

● Give full attention to driving.

●

●

Use hands-free operation, if available.

Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require.

RF energy may affect some electronic systems in motor vehicles. In addition, some vehicle manufacturers forbid the use of mobile phones in their vehicles. Check with your vehicle manufacture’s representative to be sure your phone will not affect the electronic systems of your vehicle.

EN/LZT 126 1452 R2A v

Electronic Devices

Most modern electronic equipment, for example, equipment in hospitals and cars, is shielded from RF energy. However, RF energy from telephones may affect some electronic equipment.

● Turn off your phone in health care facilities when regulations posted in the areas instruct you to do so.

● Do not use your mobile phone near medical equipment without requesting permission.

Mobile telephones may affect the operation of some implanted cardiac pacemakers, equipment for people with hearing impairments and other medically implanted equipment. Pacemaker patients should be aware that the use of a mobile phone very close to a pacemaker may cause the device to malfunction. Avoid placing the phone over the pacemaker, i.e.

in your breast pocket. When using the phone, place it at your ear opposite the pacemaker. If a distance of 15 cm. is kept between the phone and the pacemaker, the risk of interference is limited. Contact your cardiologist for more information.

Aircraft

● Turn off your phone before boarding any aircraft.

● Do not use it on the ground without crew permission

To prevent interference with communication systems, you must not use your phone while the plane is in the air.

Power Supply

● Connect AC (Power supply) only to designated power sources as marked on the product.

● To reduce risk of damage to electric cord, remove from outlet by holding onto AC adapter rather than cord.

●

●

Make sure the cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.

To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug unit from power source before attempting any cleaning, then use soft cloth dampened on with water.

Children

● Do not allow children to play with your phone since they could hurt themselves or others or accidentally damage the phone.

Blasting Areas

● Turn off your mobile phone when in a “blasting area” or in areas posted “turn off two-way radio” to avoid interfering with blasting operations. Construction crews often use remote control RF devices to set off explosives.

Potentially Explosive Atmospheres

● Turn off your phone when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. It is rare, but your phone or its accessories could generate sparks. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include fuelling areas, such as petrol stations, below deck on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.

● Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid, or explosives in the compartment of your vehicle which contains your phone and accessories.

Product Care

● Do not expose your mobile phone to moisture or extreme temperatures.

●

●

Do not use any other accessories but Ericsson originals. Failure to do so may result in loss of performance, fire, electric shock or injury, and will void the warranty.

Do not attempt to disassemble the product. Doing so will void warranty. This product does not contain consumer serviceable components. Service should only be performed by Authorized

Service Centers.

The Dual Mode (GSM/DECT) Phone

The TH 688 is a dual mode phone. This means that you can use it both as a GSM mobile phone and as a cordless phone in a DECT network.

Provided you have made the required settings, it will use the DECT network whenever you are in reach of it, and the GSM network whenever you are out of reach of the DECT network.

To be able to switch between a DECT network and a GSM network the phone must be set to Auto mode. This is done in the NETWORKS menu.

In this menu you also have the possibility to set the phone to DECT mode only or GSM mode only. If you do this, your phone will work as a cordless phone or a GSM phone respectively.

GSM

The phone only searches for and connects to a GSM network. No DECT calls can be made.

Note! When you are in DECT mode, the Networks menu looks the same as in GSM mode, but the menus are handling the DECT network instead. It is not possible to make any changes in the GSM network when you are in DECT mode.

Handling the Networks

In the System mode menu, under the Networks menu, there are the following options:

● Auto

● DECT

● GSM

The default setting is Auto.

Auto

When the phone is in Auto mode, your phone connects to a DECT network if there is one within range. If the phone is not within range of a

DECT network, it will search for a GSM network instead

If you make a call in GSM mode and enter a DECT network area, the phone will switch to DECT mode after you finish your call. However, if you make a call in DECT mode and exit the DECT network area, your call will be interrupted and lost.

DECT

The phone only searches for and connects to a DECT network. No GSM calls can be made and no Short Message Services (SMS) are available.

Preparing Your Phone for Use

The SIM Card

When you become a subscriber of a GSM network you obtain a SIM

(Subscriber Identity Module) card.

Your SIM card is supplied with a security code or PIN (Personal

Identity Number) which you need in order to gain access to the phone and GSM network.

The SIM card contains a computer chip that keeps track of your phone number, the services you have ordered from your GSM network operator and your phone book information.

Before you are able to use your phone the SIM card must be inserted into the phone.

How to Insert the SIM Card

❶ Release the card holder by sliding the lid away from you.

❺ Lock the card holder by sliding it towards you.

The Battery

Your mobile phone is supplied with a nickel metal hydride battery. The battery is not charged when purchased, however there may be enough power to turn on the phone.

The battery must be attached to the phone before it can be charged.

How to Attach the Battery to the Phone

❶ Place the battery on top of the phone.

❷ Open the holder.

❸ Slide the mini SIM card into the holder.

Make sure that the cut corner is top right.

❹ Fold down the card holder.

❷ Press until you hear a click.

How to Remove the Battery

Make sure that the phone is turned off before removing the battery.

❶ Press the locking catch on the bottom of the battery.

EN/LZT 126 1452 R2A

How to Charge the Battery

● Connect the charger to the phone as illustrated in the figure. You need to press hard to fit the plug into the phone. The flash symbol on the charger must face upwards.

● Connect the charger to the mains.

The phone will now start charging the battery. To indicate this the battery meter in the display is continuously filled and emptied and the indicator light on top of the phone shows a steady green light if the phone is turned on, or a steady red light if the phone is turned off. When the battery is fully charged, the battery meter in the display will show full.

Note! It is possible to use the phone while it is being charged. This will, however, increase the charging time.

How to Disconnect the Charger

Disconnect the charger from the phone by pushing the plug upwards, see figure, and then pulling it out.

The Low Battery Alarm

As a reminder that the battery soon needs recharging or replacing, an alarm signal (a long beep) sounds and the message Battery low appears for ten seconds in the display.

In addition, the indicator light on top of the phone starts blinking red. If the phone is left on, the low battery alarm will be repeated several times and, finally, the phone will turn itself off when the battery is no longer able to power it satisfactorily. It is not possible to turn the phone on again. Instead the battery must be recharged or replaced with a charged one.

You can now make and receive calls. This is called standby mode.

When you are not using the phone, the illumination of the display and keypad is automatically turned off after 10 seconds. Pressing any key will turn the illumination on again.

If the message Emergency calls only is displayed, you are within range of a network but you are not allowed to use it. However, in an emergency, you can call the international emergency number 112. See chapter Making and Receiving Calls in GSM Mode, p. 7.

Connecting Your TH 688 to a DECT network

When you connect your TH 688 to a DECT network, the first row displays the network’s identity. If the name and number exceed 10 characters, only the net name is shown.

When No Network is Displayed

If the message No network is displayed, there is no network within range or the received signal is too weak. You have to move to obtain a sufficiently strong signal.

The Display Language

The phone is normally, depending on SIM card, delivered with English text in the display. To select a different language, see Personalizing

Your Phone, p. 16.

The Time

The time is shown at the bottom of the display. When the phone is delivered the time is normally not set. To set the time, see p. 22.

GSM and DECT modes, provided you store all numbers as international numbers. The memory positions in the card memory are numbered from

1 onwards.

International Numbers

If you intend to use your phone both at home and abroad, you should store all phone numbers as international phone numbers, that is, with the international ‘+’character and the country code before the area code and the number.

Storing your phone numbers as international numbers also enables you to use the SIM memory both in DECT and in GSM mode without having to adjust the numbers.

❶ To enter the ‘+’ character, press and hold down 0.

❷ Omit the leading zero in the area code.
