Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to
Philips!
To fully benefit from the support that Philips offers,
register your product at www.philips.com/welcome.
Please read the safety instructions in the "Precautions"

6 Getting Started
Insert the SIM card

rubber cap covering the charger connector. Plug in the
connector as shown below. Then plug the other end
into a main AC power socket.

Precautions
Radio Waves
Your cellular mobile phone is a low power
radio transmitter and receiver. When it is
operating, it sends and receives radio waves.
The radio waves carry your voice or data
signal to a base station that is connected to the
telephone network. The network controls the power
at which the phone transmits.
• Your phone transmits/receives radio waves in the
GSM frequency (900 / 1800 MHz).
• The GSM network controls transmission power
(0.01 to 2 watts).
• Your phone complies with all relevant safety
standards.
• The CE mark on your phone shows compliancy
with European electromagnetic compatibility (Ref.
89/336/EEC) and low voltage directives (Ref. 73/
23/EEC).
Your cellular mobile phone is your responsibility. To
avoid damage to yourself, to others or to the phone
itself, read and follow all the safety instructions and
make them known to anyone borrowing your phone.
Furthermore to prevent unauthorised use of your
phone:
Keep your phone in a safe place and keep it
out of small children's reach.
Avoid writing down your PIN code. Try to
remember it instead.
Switch off the phone and remove the battery if you are
going to leave it unused for a long time.
Change your PIN code after purchasing the phone
and to activate call restriction options.
The design of your phone complies with all
applicable laws and regulations. However
your phone may cause interference with
other electronic devices. Consequently you
should follow all local recommendations and
regulations when using your cellular phone both at
home and when away. Regulations on the use of
cellular phones in vehicles and aircraft are
particularly stringent.
Public concern has been focused for some time on the
possible health risks for users of cellular phones. The
current research on radio wave technology, including
the GSM technology, has been reviewed and safety
standards have been drawn up to ensure protection
from exposure to radio wave energy. Your cellular
telephone complies with all applicable safety
standards and the Radio Equipment and
Telecommunications Terminal Equipment Directive

Always switch off your phone...
Inadequately protected or sensitive electronic
equipment may be affected by radio energy. This
interference can lead to accidents.
Before boarding an aircraft and/or when
packing the phone in your luggage: the use
of mobile phones in an aircraft may be
dangerous for the operation of the aircraft, disrupt the
mobile phones network and may be illegal.
In hospitals, clinics, other health care
centres and anywhere else where you may be
in the close vicinity of medic
al equ
ipment.
In areas with a potentially explosive
atmosphere (e.g. petrol stations and also
areas where the air contains dust particles,
such as metal powders).
In a vehicle transporting flammable products (even if
the vehicle is parked) or a vehicle powered by liquefied
petroleum gas (LPG), check first that the vehicle
complies with the applicable safety rules.
In areas where you are requested to turn off radio
transmitting devices, such as quarries or other areas
where blasting operations are in progress.
Check with the vehicle manufacturer that
electronic equipment used in your vehicle
will not be affected by radio energy.
Pacemakers
If you have a pacemaker:
• Always keep the phone more than 15 cm from your
pacemaker when the phone is switched on, in order
to avoid potential interference.
• Do not carry the phone in a breastpocket.
• Use the ear opposite to the pacemaker to minimise
the potential interference.
• Switch off your phone if you suspect that
interference is taking place.
Hearing aids
If you are a user of a hearing aid, consult your
physician and hearing aid manufacturer to learn
whether your particular device is susceptible to
cellular phone interference.
Improved performance
In order to improve the performance of your phone,
reduce radio energy emission, reduce battery
consumption and ensure safe operation adhere to the
following guidelines:
60
For the optimal and satisfactory operation of
the phone you are recommended to use the
phone in the normal operating position
(when not using in hands-free mode or with
a hands-free accessory).
• Do not expose your phone to extreme temperatures.
• Treat the phone with care. Any misuse will void the
International Guarantee.
• Do not immerse the phone in any liquid; if your
phone is damp, switch it off, remove the battery
and let them dry for 24hrs before using them again.
• To clean the phone, wipe it with a soft cloth.
• Placing and receiving calls consumes the same
amount of battery energy. However, the mobile
consumes less energy in idle screen when kept in
the same place. When in idle screen and while you
are moving, your phone consumes energy to
transmit updated location information to the
network. Setting the backlight for a shorter period
of time as well as avoiding unnecessary navigating
in the menus will also help to save the battery’s
energy for longer phoning and stand-by
performances.
Battery information
• Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery.
• Use specified charger only.
• Do not incinerate.
• Do not deform or open the battery.
• Do not allow metal objects (such as keys in your
pocket) to short circuit the battery contacts.
• Avoid exposure to excessive heat (>60° C or
140° F), moisture or caustic environments.
You should only use Philips Authentic
Accessories, as the use of any other
accessories may damage your phone and will
make all guarantees for your Philips phone
null and void.
Make sure damaged parts are replaced immediately by
a qualified technician and that they are replaced with
genuine Philips replacement parts.
Your mobile phone and your car
Studies have shown that speaking on the
telephone while driving lowers your
concentration, which can be dangerous.
Adhere to the following guidelines:
61
• Give your full attention to driving. Pull off the road
and park before using the phone.
• Respect the local regulations in countries where you
drive and use your GSM phone.
• If you want to use your phone in a vehicle, install
the hands-free car kit which is designed for that
purpose.
• Ensure that your phone and car kit do not block
any air bags or other security devices fitted in your
car.
The use of an alarm system to operate a vehicle's light
or horn to indicate incoming phone calls is prohibited
on public roads in some countries. Check local
regulations.
EN 60950 Norm
In hot weather or after prolonged exposure to the sun
(e.g., behind a window or a windscreen), the
temperature of your phone's casing might increase,
especially when featuring a metallic finish. Be very
careful in this case when picking up your phone and
also avoid using it with an ambient temperature over
40° C.
For your phone, the socket-outlet shall be installed
near the phone and shall be accessible.
Environmental care

Troubleshooting
The phone does not switch on
Remove/reinstall the battery. Then charge the phone
until the battery icon stops scrolling. Unplug from
charger and try to switch the mobile on.
The display shows BLOCKED when you
switch on
Somebody tried to use your phone but didn’t know
the PIN code nor the unblocking code (PUK).
Contact your service provider.
The display shows IMSI failure
This problem is related to your subscription. Contact
your operator.
Your phone doesn’t return to the idle
screen
Long press the hangup key or switch off the phone,
check that the SIM card and the battery are installed
correctly and switch it on again.
The network symbol is not displayed
The network connection is lost. Either you are in a
radio shadow (in a tunnel or between tall buildings) or
you are outside the network coverage area. Try from
another place, try to reconnect to the network
(especially when abroad), check that the antenna is in
place if your mobile has an external antenna, or
contact your network operator for assistance/
information.
The display doesn’t respond (or the
display responds slowly) to key presses
The display responds more slowly at very low
temperatures. This is normal and does not affect the
operation of the phone. Take the phone to a warmer
place and try again. In other cases please contact your
phone supplier.
Your battery seems to over heat
You might be using a charger that was not intended
for your phone. Make sure you always use the Philips
authentic accessory shipped with your phone.
Your phone doesn’t display the phone
numbers of incoming calls
This feature is network and subscription dependent.
If the network doesn’t send the caller’s number, the
phone will display Call 1 or Withheld instead. Contact
your operator for detailed information on this subject.
You can’t send text messages
Some networks don’t allow message exchanges with
other networks. First check that you entered the
number of your SMS centre, or contact your operator
for detailed information on this subject.
64
You can’t receive and/or store JPEG
pictures
A picture may not be accepted by your mobile phone
if it is too large, if its name is too long, or if it doesn’t
have the correct file format.
You have the feeling that you miss some
calls
Check your call divert options.
During battery charge, the battery icon
shows no bar and the outline is flashing
Only charge the battery in an environment where the
temperature does not go below 0°C (32°F) or above
50°C (113°F).
In other cases please contact your phone supplier.
The display shows SIM failure
Check that the SIM card has been inserted in the right
position. If the problem remains, your SIM card may
be damaged. Contact your operator.
When attempting to use a feature in the
menu, the mobile displays NOT
ALLOWED
Some features are network dependent. They are only
available, therefore, if the network or your
subscription supports them. Contact your operator
for detailed information on this subject.
The display shows INSERT YOUR SIM
CARD
Check that the SIM card has been inserted in the right
position. If the problem remains, your SIM card
might be damaged. Contact your operator.
The autonomy of your phone seems lower
that indicated in the user guide
The autonomy is linked to your settings (e.g., ringer
volume, backlight duration) and the features you use.
To increase the autonomy, and whenever possible,
you must deactivate features you do not use.
Your phone doesn’t work well in your car
A car contains many metallic parts that absorb
electromagnetic waves which can affect the phone’s
performances. A car kit is available to provide you
with an external antenna and enables you to make and
receive phone calls without handling the handset.
Check with local authorities if you are allowed to use
the phone whilst driving.
Your phone is not charging
If your battery is completely flat, it might take several
minutes of pre-charge (up to 5 minutes in some cases)
before the charging icon is displayed on the screen.
65
Philips Authentic
Accessories
Some accessories, such as a battery and a charger, are
included as standard in the package of your mobile
phone. Additional accessories may also be provided or
sold separately. Package contents may therefore vary.
To maximise the performance of your Philips mobile
phone and not to void the warranty, always purchase
Philips Authentic Accessories that are specially
designed for use with your phone. Philips Consumer
Electronics cannot be held liable for any damage due
to use with non authorised accessories.
Charger
Charges your battery in any AC outlet. Small enough
to carry in a briefcase/handbag.
Mono headset
Your phone will activate headset mode automatically
when you plug in the headset.
66 Specific Absorption Rate Information
Specific Absorption Rate Information
International standards
THIS MOBILE PHONE MEETS THE INTERNATIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS FOR EXPOSURE TO
RADIO WAVES
Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the limits for
exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy defined by the international standards. These recommendations have been
established by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) and, the Institute
of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) that forecast a substantial safety margin for assuring the protection
of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure recommendations for mobile phones use a measurement unit known as the Specific Absorption Rate
(SAR). The SAR limit recommended by the ICNIRP for the mobile phones used by the general public is 2.0W/
kg averaged over ten grams of tissue and, is 1,6W/kg averaged over one gram of tissue by IEEE Std 1528 for the
head.
Tests for SAR have been conducted using recommended operating positions with the mobile 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 levels of the mobile phone while operating are generally below the maximum
SAR 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 base station antenna, the lower the power output.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet
the international protection standards for exposure to radio waves.
The highest SAR value for this Philips Xenium 9@9v model phone when tested for compliance against the
standard was 0,690 W/kg for ICNIRP recommendation.
For limiting the radio waves exposure, it is recommended to reduce the mobile phone call duration or to use a
headset. The purpose of those precautions is to take the mobile phone away from the head and the body.
