• Emergency calls

IMPORTANT!
This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio signals,
wireless and landline networks, and user-programmed functions.
Because of this, connections in all conditions cannot be guaranteed.
Therefore, you should never rely solely on any wireless phone for
essential communications (for example, medical emergencies).

Remember, to make or receive any calls, the phone must be switched on
and be used in a service area that has adequate signal strength. Emergency
calls might not be possible on all wireless phone networks or when certain
network services and/or phone features are in use. Check with local
service providers.

Always make sure that your phone is properly charged before attempting
any emergency calls. If you allow your battery to become empty, you will be
unable to receive or make calls, including emergency calls. You must then
wait a few minutes after the charging begins to place any emergency calls.

Make an Emergency Call

1

If the phone is not on, switch it on.

Some networks may require that a valid SIM card is properly inserted
in the phone.

2

Enter the emergency number for your present location (for example, 911
or any other official emergency number. Emergency numbers vary by
location).

3

Press Call.

If certain features are in use (Fixed dialing, restrict calls, and so on), you
might first need to turn those features off before you can make an emergency
call. Consult this document and your local cellular service provider.

When making an emergency call, remember to give all of the necessary
information as accurately as possible. Remember that your wireless phone
might be the only means of communication at the scene of an accident—
do not terminate the call until given permission to do so.

Certification Information (SAR)

THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT'S REQUIREMENTS FOR
EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.

Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio
frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of
the U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines
and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The
guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent
scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of
scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin
designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.

The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit
set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.* Tests for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions accepted by the FCC with the phone transmitting at
its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although
the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR
level of the phone while operating can be well below the maximum value.
This is because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels
so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the
closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.

Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested
and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by
the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are
performed in positions and locations (for example, at the ear and worn on
the body) as required by the FCC for each model. The highest SAR value
for this model phone as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the
ear is .86 W/kg, and when worn on the body, as described in this user
guide, is 0.68 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among phone
models, depending upon available accessories and FCC requirements).

While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones
and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement.

The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone
with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF
exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with
the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid

after searching on FCC ID GMLNPB-1NB.

For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC
RF exposure guidelines when used with the Nokia accessories supplied or
designated for this product. Use of other accessories may not ensure
compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.

*In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used
by the public is 1.6 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over one gram of
tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give
additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in
measurements. SAR values may vary depending on national reporting
requirements and the network band. For SAR information in other regions
please look under product information at www.nokia.com.
