1.2. Proper use
Your appliance offers a number of options for usage:
• The device is intended for private use only and not for
industrial/commercial use.
Please note that we shall not be liable in cases of
improper use:
• Do not modify the device without our consent and do
not use any auxiliary equipment which we have not
approved or supplied.
• Use only spare parts and accessories which we have
supplied or approved.
• Heed all the information in these operating
instructions, especially the safety information. Any
other use is deemed improper and can cause personal
injury or damage to the device.
• Do not use the device in extreme environmental
conditions.
7 of 71
1.3. Usage limitations
It is essential to turn off the telephone in the following
situations:
• Before boarding an aircraft or before packing it in your
luggage. The use of radio devices in aircraft can have
dangerous effects on the flight controls and interrupt
radio contact and is thus prohibited.
• In hospitals, clinics or other health centres and in any
locations in the direct vicinity of medical devices.
• In all locations where there is a risk of explosion (e.g.
petrol stations; in dust-filled environments, e.g. where
there is metal dust).
• In locations where the use of radio-controlled devices
is prohibited, e.g. on construction sites or locations
where people are working with explosives.
• While driving a motor vehicle (if no hands-free car kit
is available).
8 of 71
1.4. Making calls while driving
As making calls can reduce concentration
levels (while driving a car or riding a bicycle),
this may contribute to accidents occurring.
The following instructions should be
followed exactly.
It is an offence to hold a telephone in your
hand (or between your head and your
shoulder) to make a call while driving. It is
also illegal to write SMS, e-mail or use
other programs while driving. Failure to
comply will result in fines and in your name
being entered in the central traffic offenders
register.
The use of hands-free sets is allowed.
9 of 71
CAUTION!
A wired headset is not a
hands-free set and may not be used
while driving.
WARNING!
Excessive volume when using
headphones or earphones can
damage your hearing. Before
pressing play, set the volume
to the lowest setting. Start
playback and increase the
volume to a comfortable level.
Changing the basic settings of
the equaliser can also increase
the volume and thus cause
permanent damage to your
hearing.
10 of 71
Changing the drivers, software,
equaliser, operating system,
etc., can also lead to an increase
in the volume and thus cause
permanent damage to your
hearing. Listening to a device at
high volumes for an extended
period via headphones/
earphones can damage your
hearing.
• Hands-free systems should only
be installed by suitably qualified
professionals. Incorrect installation
or maintenance can have hazardous
consequences and may also void
your guarantees – also that of the
car. Irradiation of the car’s on-board
electronics can cause serious defects and
result in danger to life and limb for you
and others.
11 of 71
• Do not use the mailbox while driving. Do
not listen to your messages until you have
parked the car and switched the motor
off.
• If you accept a call via the hands-free set
while driving, keep the call as short as
possible. Concentrate on your driving. Try
to to find a parking area before making a
call.
• Please comply with all national
regulations if you use your mobile while
driving abroad.
• If you need to call often while driving, you
should have a hands-free system installed
in your car. These systems have been
specially developed for this purpose.
• Ensure that neither your telephone nor
the hands-free system can interfere with
the functionality of the safety equipment
in your car.
• For cars with airbags: Bear in mind that
the activation of the airbag involves
the release of a large amount of force.
12 of 71
Therefore, never install permanent
telephone equipment in the area above
the airbag or in the space occupied by the
deployed airbag.
• If telephone or accessories are incorrectly
installed this can lead to serious injury
when the airbag is activated.
CAUTION!
Ignoring this advice can lead to
serious injuries and/or property
damage. Non-compliance can
lead to severe penalties!
2. Safety instructions
• Do not let children play with electrical
appliances without supervision. Children
are not always aware of potential hazards.
• Keep packaging material such as plastic
film away from children. There is a risk of
suffocation if used improperly.

19 of 71
• If the device cannot be switched on
although it is connected to a power
source, please contact your service centre.
• Do not use chargers or batteries that are
damaged in any way.
• Do not dismantle or deform batteries.
You could injure your hands or fingers,
or battery fluid could come into contact

• Do not place your phone next to burning
cigarettes, open flames or other heat
sources.
• Do not drop or bang the telephone and
do not shake it. Rough handling can
damage the internal circuitry.
• Do not paint your telephone as the paint
could block the microphone, the ear
piece or hinder moving parts and thus
prevent normal use.
• Treat your telephone carefully and store it
in a clean and dust-free location.
• Under no circumstances attempt to
open the telephone or battery. Any
modification to the device is prohibited
and will invalidate the guarantee.
21 of 71

22 of 71
2.7. People with pacemakers
When using your telephone, be sure to
maintain a safety distance of at least 15 cm
from your implanted pacemaker to avoid
any possibility of interference.
Do not carry the telephone in a breast
pocket when it is switched on. Hold the
telephone to the ear on the opposite side to
your pacemaker to avoid any possible
adverse effects.
Switch off the telephone immediately if you
suspect any adverse effects.
2.8. People with hearing aids
If you use a hearing aid, ask your doctor or
the manufacturer of the hearing aid about
any possible adverse effects caused by radio
waves.
2.9. Emergency calls
This telephone uses radio signals, wireless
and land-based networks, as well as
functions programmed by the user. Because
23 of 71
of this, a connection cannot be guaranteed
under all possible circumstances.
Therefore, you should not rely exclusively
on telephones for essential communication
(e.g. in medical emergency situations).
Emergency calls may not be possible on
some mobile networks or while certain
network services and/or telephone
functions are being used. Contact your local
network operator.
2.10. Saving a number for use in
emergencies
If you are involved in an accident or injured
and have your mobile phone with you, it is
important for the emergency services to be
able to inform a close friend or family
member. Often, it is not immediately
apparent to rescue workers which contact
in the mobile phone directory should be
called.
24 of 71
Therefore an international abbreviation has
been developed to allow emergency
services to quickly inform one or more
people of an event.
Save a contact under the name ICE (“in case
of emergency”) for this purpose. If more
than one person is to be notified, you can
use ICE1, ICE2, and so on.

7. Connecting to the Internet
You can use the standard connection settings to access
the Internet via your mobile phone network or use your
Wi-Fi connection.
In order to access the Internet via the mobile data
network, this service must be active in your contract.
NOTE!
Read the chapter “Internet“ carefully
to avoid unnecessarily high mobile
phone bills.
Also contact your mobile phone service provider if the
settings for accessing the mobile data network provided
by your service provider are not preconfigured on your
telephone. If you change the settings without consulting
your mobile phone service provider then it may be
possible that your telephone will then no longer function
correctly.

7.1. Adding a new data network
connection
Your telephone is preconfigured for accessing the Internet
via most European mobile phone service providers.
If it is nevertheless necessary for you to add a new data
network connection, first ask your mobile phone service
provider for the following information.
• Name of the access point (APN)
• If necessary, the user name and password.
• Server IP and port number, if the network uses a proxy
server.
 Tap on
on the main screen.
 Tap on Settings  More...  Mobile networks 
Access point Names.
 Press the menu key and tap on New APN.
 Tap on Name to enter the name of your access point
(freely selectable).
 Tap on APN to enter the APN that you want to add.
 Tap on Proxy and Port to enter the server IP and port
if the network uses a proxy server.
 Tap on Username and Password and enter the
required information in each case. (If there are no user
names and passwords, leave these fields blank.)
 If required, tap on APN type.
 Press the menu key and tap on Save to conclude the
process.
51 of 71
PLEASE NOTE!
In order to set the APN to the default
settings, press the Menu key and tap
on Reset to default.
7.2. Additional costs for Internet
and roaming usage
Significant volume-based data costs may apply when
using the mobile Internet. In order to limit these costs, we
recommend that you purchase a contract with an Internet
flat rate.
Find out about the various options available from your
mobile phone service provider. Also ask about the tariffs
for using your telephone abroad (roaming) because this
can also result in high charges.
NOTE!
When you use the telephone for
the first time, data roaming (use
of data services in a different data
network than your own home
network provided by your mobile
phone service provider e.g. abroad) is
deactivated.
52 of 71
Check your mobile service tariff before using the device
and, if required, switch off mobile data services until you
have activated a suitable Internet flat rate. Proceed as
follows:
7.3. Internet

with different data usage limits, it is advisable to define
the data usage limit for your mobile phone contract in the
data usage limit function on your telephone.
 For example, if your monthly internet flat rate has a
max. limit of 1 GB, set the red line (limit) to 1 GB.
Set the yellow line (warning) to a lower value.

8. Addendum to instructions
for use of smartphone
8.1. Exposure to radio frequency
energy
Your smartphone has been tested and complies with the RF exposure limits prescribed
by the European Union in connection with
cellular networks, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
The expression “Specific Absorption Rate”, or
SAR for short, refers to the amount of RF energy absorbed by the human body.
The maximum SAR limit (Specific Absorption Rate) for mobile telephones approved
by the Council of the European Union is 2.0
W / kg.
Maximum levels applicable to this model:
SAR (head): 0.586 W / kg
SAR (body): 0.675 W / kg
The telephone has been tested and conforms to the directives on SAR exposure in
56 of 71
terms of operation of cellular networks, Wi-Fi
and Bluetooth.
Your telephone is fitted with radio transmitters and receivers. When it is lit up, your
smartphone is sending and receiving radio
frequency (RF) energy via its antenna.
It is advisable to use the mobile telephone
in good reception conditions in order to reduce the quantity of radiation absorbed (especially in underground car parks, when
travelling by train or by car).

GNU General Public Licence
Version 2, June 1991
Copyright (C) 1989,
1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston,
MA 02110-1301, USA
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom
to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public License is
intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software-to make sure the software is free for all its users. This General Public
License applies to most of the Free Software Foundation‘s software
and to any other program whose authors commit to using it. (Some
other Free Software Foundation software is covered by the GNU Lesser
General Public License instead.) You can apply it to your programs, too.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price.
Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have
the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this
service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new free
programs; and that you know you can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone
to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These
restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute
copies of the software, or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis
or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have. You
must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. And
you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
distribute and/or modify the software.
Also, for each author‘s protection and ours, we want to make certain that
everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free software.
63 of 71
If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we want its
recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so that any
problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors‘
reputations.
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents.
We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program
will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program
proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must
be licensed for everyone‘s free use or not licensed at all.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
modification follow.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND
MODIFICATION
0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
under the terms of this General Public License. The “Program”, below,
refers to any such program or work, and a “work based on the Program”
means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, either
verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another language.
(Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term
„modification“.) Each licensee is addressed as “you”.
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running
the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program is
covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Program
(independent of having been made by running the Program). Whether
that is true depends on what the Program does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program’s source
code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously
and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright
notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer
to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other
recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the Program.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you
may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of
64 of 71
it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute
such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above,
provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating
that you changed the files and the date of any change.
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole
or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to
be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms
of this License.
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
when run, you must cause it, when started running for such interactive
use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement
including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no
warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users
may redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling the
user how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: if the Program itself
is interactive but does not normally print such an announcement, your
work based on the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works
in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire
whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your
rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the
right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based
on the Program.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the
Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a
volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other
work under the scope of this License.
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
65 of 71
Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1
and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to
give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically
performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy
of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms
of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software
interchange; or,
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to
distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed only
for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the program
in object code or executable form with such an offer, in accord with
Subsection b above.)
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source
code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control
compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a special
exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that
is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major
components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on
which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies
the executable.
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to
copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy
the source code from the same place counts as distribution of the source
code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source
along with the object code.
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise
to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will
automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties
who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will
not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full
compliance.
66 of 71
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed
it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute
the Program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law
if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing
the Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your
acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for
copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based on it.
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original
licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms
and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the
recipients‘ exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible
for enforcing compliance by third parties to this License.
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgement or allegation of patent
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
excuse you from the conditions of this License.
If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations
under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a
consequence you may not distribute the Program at all. For example,
if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the
Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through
you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would
be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any
particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply
and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents
or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims;
this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free
software distribution system, which is implemented by public license
practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the
wide range of software distributed through that system in reliance on
consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to
decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other
system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.
67 of 71
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be
a consequence of the rest of this License.
8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain
countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original
copyright holder who places the Program under this License may add an
explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries,
so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus
excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if
written in the body of this License.
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new
versions of the General Public License from time to time. Such new
versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in
detail to address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and “any
later version”, you have the option of following the terms and conditions
either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number
of this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free
Software Foundation.
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the
author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the
Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we
sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by
the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free
software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS
NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE
COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM
“AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR
IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES
OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE
ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME
68 of 71
THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO
IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO
MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED
ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL,
SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF
THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT
LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR
LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE
PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH
HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
SUCH DAMAGES.
