1. Getting Started  
Please read the safety instructions in the “Precautions”  
section before using your phone.  
To use your phone, you must insert a valid SIM card  
supplied by your GSM operator or retailer. The SIM  
card contains your subscription information, your  
mobile phone number and a memory in which you  
can store phone numbers and messages.  
Insert the SIM card  
Follow the steps below to insert your new SIM card.  
Remember to switch off your mobile phone before  
removing the back cover and battery.  
Remove the battery  
To remove the battery, lift up the battery from the  
bottom as show below.  
Remove the back cover  
To insert the SIM card, you must first remove the  
back cover. Press on the back cover with your thumb  
and slide the cover downwards. Then use your free  
hand to lift up the door of the battery compartment as  
shown below.

Keeping the charger plugged to the mobile phone  
when the battery is fully charged will not damage the  
battery. The only way to disconnect the charger is to  
unplug it, so use an easily accessible AC power socket.  
If you are not using your phone for a period of time,  
we recommend that you remove the battery.  
Charge the battery  
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery. A  
new battery is partially charged and an alarm will warn  
you when the battery level is low. If the battery is  
empty, it needs to be charged for 2 or 3 minutes  
before the battery symbol indicators flash. Plug the  
charger into the charger connector at the top left side  
of the phone as shown below. Then plug the other  
end of the charger into an AC power socket.  
You can use your phone while it is charging. When the  
battery is completely discharged, the charge indicators  
will appear only after a few minutes of charging.  
The battery symbol indicates the state of charge. The  
charge indicators will scroll when the battery is  
charging. The battery is fully charged when the charge  
indicators stop scrolling. You can then disconnect the  
charger.

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:  
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  
1999/5/EC.  
26  
 
 
Check with the vehicle manufacturer that  
electronic equipment used in your vehicle  
will not be affected by radio energy.  
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 medical equipment.  
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.  
In areas with  
a
potentially explosive  
atmosphere (e.g. petrol stations and also  
areas where the air contains dust particles,  
such as metal powders).  
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.  
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.  
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:  
27  
 
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).  
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.  
• 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.  
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:  
28  
 
• 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.  
Environmental care  
Remember to observe the local regulations  
regarding the disposal of the packaging  
materials, exhausted batteries and old phone  
and please promote their recycling.  
Philips has marked the battery and packaging with

SAR Information - International  
(ICNIRP)  
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 Institue of  
Electrical and Electronics Engineers - Standard Associations (IEEE-SA) that forcast 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 2.0 W/kg in 10g of tissue  
and, is 1,6W/kg in 1g of tissue by IEEE-SA (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 its 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 191 when tested for compliance against the standard was 1,37 W/kg for ICNIRP  
recommendation.  
For limiting the radio waves exposure, it is recommened 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.
