Alcatel Carrier Internetworking Solutions One Touch 531 Battery, Chargers, Security codes

Do not switch the phone on when you are near gas or flammable liquids. Strictly obey all signs and instructions posted in a fuel depot, gas station, or chemical plant, or in any potentially ex- plosive atmosphere. Do not let small children use the phone without supervi- sion. Do not attempt to open or repair it yourself. Use only Alcatel batteries, battery chargers, and accessories that are compatible with your phone model. Alcatel will not be held responsible if this is not respected. Do not allow your phone to be exposed to unfavourable environmental conditions (humidity, rain, infiltration of liquids, dust, sea air, etc). The manufacturer's recommended operating temperature range is -10°C to

+55°C. Over 55°C the legibility of the phone's display may be impaired, but this is temporary and not serious.

Battery

Before removing the battery from your phone, please make sure that the phone is switched off. Take precautions with the battery and do not attempt to open the battery (chemical substances may cause burns). Do not pierce, disas- semble nor cause a short-circuit in a battery. Do not burn or dispose of a used battery in household waste or store it at temperatures above 60 °C. Batteries must be disposed of in accord- ance with locally applicable environ- mental legislation. Batteries should not be used for any other purpose than the one intended. Never use damaged bat- teries.

Chargers

Mains powered chargers mains will op- erate within the temperature range: 0 -40°C. The chargers designed for your

mobile phone meet with the standard for safety of information technology equipment. They should be used for this purpose only.

Protection against theft

Your telephone is identified by an IMEI (phone serial number) shown on the packaging label and in the product's memory. We recommend that you note the number the first time you use your telephone by entering #6#, and keep it safely. It may be requested by the police or your operator if your telephone is stolen. This number allows your mobile telephone to be blocked preventing a third person from using it, even with a different SIM card.

Security codes

The phone and SIM card are delivered to you pre-programmed with codes that protect the phone and SIM card against unauthorised use. A short de- scription of each follows. See Security features, page 39 to change your PIN and phonelock codes.

PIN and PIN2 codes (4-8 digits)

All SIM cards have a PIN (Personal Identity Number). It protects the card against unauthorised use.

Entering the wrong PIN code three times disables the SIM card and the message SIM Blocked is then dis- played.

Enter PUK: appears.

PUK and PUK2 codes (8 digits).

Please ask your service provider for your PUK code. Use it to unblock a disabled SIM card (see page Securi- ty features, page 39).

The PUK2 code is required to un- block the PIN2 code (see above).
