Safety and use ..............................

We recommend that you read this chapter carefully before using your cellphone. The manufacturer

disclaims any liability for damage, which may result as a consequence of improper use or use

contrary to the instructions contained herein.

TRAFFIC SAFETY:•

Given that studies show that using a cellphone while driving a vehicle constitutes a real risk, even

when the hands-free kit is used (car kit, headset...), drivers are requested to refrain from using their

cellphone when the vehicle is not parked. Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless

cellphones and their accessories in the areas where you drive. Always obey them. The use of these

devices may be prohibited or restricted in certain areas.

When driving, do not use your cellphone and headphone to listen to music or to the radio. Using

a headphone can be dangerous and forbidden in some areas.

When switched on, your cellphone emits electromagnetic waves that can interfere with the

vehicle’s electronic systems such as ABS anti-lock brakes or airbags. To ensure that there is no

problem:

- do not place your cellphone on top of the dashboard or within an airbag deployment area,

- check with your car dealer or the car manufacturer to make sure that the car’s electronic devices

are shielded from cellphone RF energy.

CONDITIONS OF USE:•

You are advised to switch off the cellphone from time to time to optimize its performance.

Remember to abide by local authority rules of cellphone use on aircrafts.

Switch the cellphone off when you are in health care facilities, except in designated areas. As with

many other types of equipment now in regular use, cellphones can interfere with other electrical

or electronic devices, or equipment using radio frequency.

Switch the cellphone off 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 explosive

atmosphere.

When the cellphone is switched on, it should be kept at least 15 cm from any medical device such

as a pacemaker, a hearing aid or insulin pump. In particular when using the cellphone you should

hold it against the ear on the opposite side to the device, if any.

To avoid hearing impairment, answer the call before holding your cellphone to your ear. Also

move the handset away from your ear while using the “hands-free” option because the amplified

volume might cause hearing damage. It is recommended to have proper supervision while small

children use your cellphone.

When replacing the cover please note that your cellphone may contain substances that could

create an allergic reaction.

Always handle your cellphone with care and keep it in a clean and dust-free place.

Your cellphone should not be disposed of in a municipal waste. Please check local regulations for

disposal of electronic products.

Remember to make back-up copies or keep a written record of all important information stored

in your cellphone.

Some people may suffer epileptic seizures or blackouts when exposed to flashing lights, or when

playing video games. These seizures or blackouts may occur even if a person never had a previous

seizure or blackout. If you have experienced seizures or blackouts, or if you have a family history

of such occurrences, please consult your doctor before playing video games on your cellphone or

enabling a flashing-lights feature on your cellphone. Parents should monitor their children’s use of

video games or other features that incorporate flashing lights on the cellphones.

All persons should discontinue use and consult a doctor if any of the following symptoms occur:

convulsion, eye or muscle twitching, loss of awareness, involuntary movements, or disorientation.

To limit the likelihood of such symptoms, please take the following safety precautions:

- Play at the farthest distance possible from the screen.

When you play games on your cellphone, you may experience occasional discomfort in your hands,

arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of your body. Follow these instructions to avoid problems

such as tendinitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, or other musculoskeletal disorders:

- Take a minimum of a 15-minute break every hour of game playing.

- If your hands, wrists, or arms become tired or sore while playing, stop and rest for several hours

before playing again.

- If you continue to have sore hands, wrists, or arms during or after playing, stop the game and

see a doctor.

Prolonged exposure to music at full volume using the music player may damage your hearing.

Set your cellphone’s volume to it’s lowest setting prior to inserting headphones in your

ears and adjust the volume to your preference. Only use headphones that are

recommended by TCT Mobile Limited and it’s affiliates.

PRIVACY:•

Please note that you must respect the laws and regulations in force in your jurisdiction or other

jurisdiction(s) where you will use your cellphone regarding taking photographs and recording

sounds with your cellphone. Pursuant to such laws and regulations, it may be strictly forbidden to

take photographs and/or to record the voices of other people or any of their personal attributes,

and reproduce or distribute them, as this may be considered to be an invasion of privacy.

It is the user’s sole responsibility to ensure that prior authorization be obtained, if necessary, in

order to record private or confidential conversations or take a photograph of another person; the

manufacturer, the seller or vendor of your cellphone (including the operator) disclaim any liability

which may result from the improper use of the cellphone.

BATTERY AND ACCESSORIES:•

Before removing the battery from your cellphone, please make sure that the cellphone is switched

off.

Observe the following precautions for battery use:

- Do not attempt to open the battery (due to the risk of toxic fumes and burns).

- Do not puncture, disassemble or cause a short-circuit in a battery,

- Do not burn or dispose of a used battery in the garbage or store it at temperatures above

60°C.

Batteries must be disposed of in accordance with locally applicable environmental regulations. Only

use the battery for the purpose for which it was designed. Never use damaged batteries or those

not recommended by TCT Mobile Limited and/or its affiliates.

Characteristics of power supply (depending on the country):

Travel charger: Input: 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz, 0.15 A

Output: 5 V, 350/400 mA

Battery: Lithium 850 mAh

RADIO WAVES:•

THIS CELLPHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO

WAVES.

Your cellphone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed

the emission limits for exposure to radio-frequency (RF) energy.

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. These

guidelines include a substantial safety margin designed to ensure the safety of all persons, regardless

of age and health.

The exposure standard for cellphones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific

Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by public authorities such as the Federal Communications

Commission of the US Government (FCC), or by Industry Canada, is 1.6 W/kg averaged over 1 gram

of body tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with the cellphone

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

cellphone while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the cellphone 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 of the cellphone

Before a cellphone model is available for sale to the public, compliance with national regulations

and standards must be shown.

The highest SAR value for this model cellphone when tested is 1.15 W/Kg for use at the ear and

1.04 W/Kg for use close to the body.

While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various cellphones and at various

positions, they all meet the government requirement for RF exposure. For body-worn operation,

the cellphone meets FCC RF exposure guidelines provided that it is used with a non-metallic

accessory with the handset at least 1.5 cm from the body. Use of other accessories may not ensure

compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.

The World Health Organization (WHO) considers that present scientific information does not

indicate the need for any special precautions for use of cellphones. If individuals are concerned,

they might choose to limit their own or their children’s RF exposure by limiting the length of calls,

or using “hands-free” devices to keep cellphones away from the head and body. (fact sheet n°193).

Additional WHO information about electromagnetic fields and public health are available on the

following website: http://www.who.int/peh-emf.

Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital

device pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable

protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,

uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with

the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no

guarantee that interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning

the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or

more of the following measures:

- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is

connected.

- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/ TV technician for help.

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could

void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

For the receiver devices associated with the operation of a licensed radio service (e.g. FM

broadcast), they bear the following statement:

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the condition that this

device does not cause harmful interference.

For other devices, they bear the following statement:

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two

conditions:

(1) this device may not cause harmful interference

(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause

undesired operation.

Your cellphone is equipped with a built-in antenna. For optimal operation, you should avoid

touching it or degrading it.

As mobile devices offer a range of functions, they can be used in positions other than against your

ear. In such circumstances the device will be compliant with the guidelines when used with headset

or usb data cable. If you are using another accessory ensure that whatever product is used is free

of any metal and that it positions the cellphone at least 2cm away from the body.
