•
Take extra precautions
• Keep the battery or device dry and away from water or
any liquid as it may cause a short circuit.
• Keep metal objects away so they don’t come in contact
with the battery or its connectors as it may lead to short
circuit during operation.
• The phone should be only connected to products that
bear the USB-IF logo or have completed the USB-IF
compliance program.
• Do not use a battery that appears damaged, deformed,
or discolored, or the one that has any rust on its casing,
overheats, or emits a foul odor.
• Always keep the battery out of the reach of babies and
small children, to avoid swallowing of the battery. Consult
the doctor immediately if the battery is swallowed.
• Only use the battery with a charging system that has been
qualified with the system per this standard, IEEE-Std1725-2006. Use of an unqualified battery or charger may
present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage or other hazard.
• Replace the battery only with another battery that has
been qualified with the system per this standard, IEEEStd-1725-2006. Use of an unqualified battery may present
a risk of fire, explosion, leakage or other hazard.
• Avoid dropping the phone or battery. If the phone or
battery is dropped, especially on a hard surface, and
the user suspects damage, take it to a service centre for
inspection.
• If the battery leaks:

• Do not allow the leaking fluid to come in contact
with skin or clothing. If already in contact, flush the
affected area immediately with clean water and seek
medical advice.
• Do not allow the leaking fluid to come in contact
with eyes. If this occurs, DO NOT rub; rinse with clean
water immediately and seek medical advice.
• Take extra precautions to keep a leaking battery away
from fire as there is a danger of ignition or explosion.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR DIRECT SUNLIGHT
Keep this product away from excessive moisture and extreme
temperatures. Do not leave the product or its battery inside a vehicle
or in places where the temperature may exceed 60˚C (140˚F), such
as on a car dashboard, window sill, or behind a glass that is exposed
to direct sunlight or strong ultraviolet light for extended periods of
time. This may damage the product, overheat the battery, or pose a
risk to the vehicle.
PREVENTION OF HEARING LOSS
CAUTION: Permanent hearing loss may occur if earphones or
headphones are used at high volume for prolonged periods of
time.
SAFETY IN AIRCRAFT
Due to the possible interference caused by this product to an
aircraft’s navigation system and its communications network, using
this device’s phone function on board an airplane is against the law
in most countries. If you want to use this device when on board an
aircraft, remember to turn off your phone by switching to Airplane
Mode.
10
ENVIRONMENT RESTRICTIONS
Do not use this product in gas stations, fuel depots, chemical
plants or where blasting operations are in progress, or in potentially
explosive atmospheres such as fuelling areas, fuel storehouses, below
deck on boats, chemical plants, fuel or chemical transfer or storage
facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such
as grain, dust, or metal powders. Please be aware that sparks in such
areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or
even death.
EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES
When in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere or where
flammable materials exist, the product should be turned off and
the user should obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas
could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even
death. Users are advised not to use the equipment at refueling points
such as service or gas stations, and are reminded of the need to
observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots,
chemical plants, or where blasting operations are in progress. Areas
with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always,
clearly marked. These include fueling areas, below deck on boats,
fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air
contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.
ROAD SAFETY
Vehicle drivers in motion are not permitted to use telephony services
with handheld devices, except in the case of emergency. In some
countries, using hands-free devices as an alternative is allowed.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR RF EXPOSURE
• Avoid using your phone near metal structures (for example, the
steel frame of a building).
11
•
Avoid using your phone near strong electromagnetic sources,
such as microwave ovens, sound speakers, TV and radio.
•
Use only original manufacturer-approved accessories, or
accessories that do not contain any metal.
•
Use of non-original manufacturer-approved accessories may
violate your local RF exposure guidelines and should be avoided.
12
INTERFERENCE WITH MEDICAL EQUIPMENT FUNCTIONS
This product may cause medical equipment to malfunction. The use
of this device is forbidden in most hospitals and medical clinics.
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the
manufacturer of your device to determine if they are adequately
shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to
assist you in obtaining this information.
Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations
are posted. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment
that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
HEARING AIDS
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In
the event of such interference, you may want to consult your service
provider, or call the customer service line to discuss alternatives.
NONIONIZING RADIATION
Your device has an internal antenna. This product should be operated
in its normal-use position to ensure the radiative performance and
safety of the interference. As with other mobile radio transmitting
equipment, users are advised that for satisfactory operation of the
equipment and for the safety of personnel, it is recommended that no
part of the human body be allowed to come too close to the antenna
during operation of the equipment.
Use only the supplied integral antenna. Use of unauthorized
or modified antennas may impair call quality and damage the
phone, causing loss of performance and SAR levels exceeding the
recommended limits as well as result in non-compliance with local
regulatory requirements in your country.
13
To assure optimal phone performance and
ensure human exposure to RF energy is
within the guidelines set forth in the relevant
standards, always use your device only in
its normal-use position. Contact with the
antenna area may impair call quality and
cause your device to operate at a higher
power level than needed. Avoiding contact
with the antenna area when the phone is IN
USE optimizes the antenna performance and
the battery life.
General Precautions
• Avoid applying excessive pressure to the device
Do not apply excessive pressure on the screen and the device
to prevent damaging them and remove the device from your
pants’ pocket before sitting down. It is also recommended that
you store the device in a protective case and only use the device
stylus or your finger when interacting with the touch screen.
Cracked display screens due to improper handling are not
covered by the warranty.
• Device getting warm after prolonged use
When using your device for prolonged periods of time, such
as when you’re talking on the phone, charging the battery or
browsing the web, the device may become warm. In most cases,
this condition is normal and therefore should not be interpreted
as a problem with the device.
14

documentation, do not service any product yourself. Service
needed on components inside the device should be done by an

6.5 Using Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology that
allows Bluetooth devices to exchange information over a distance of
about 26 feet (8 meters) without requiring a physical connection.
Bluetooth on your phone operates in three different modes:
• On. Bluetooth is turned on. Your phone can detect other
Bluetooth-enabled devices, but not vice versa.
•
Discoverable. Bluetooth is turned on, and all other Bluetoothenabled devices can detect your phone.
•
Off. Bluetooth is turned off. In this mode, you can neither send
nor receive information using Bluetooth.
Notes
• By default, Bluetooth is turned off. If you turn it on, then turn off your
phone, Bluetooth also turns off. When you turn on your phone again,
Bluetooth automatically turns on.
• Turn off Bluetooth when not in use to conserve battery power, or in
places where using a wireless device is prohibited, such as on board
an aircraft and in hospitals.

Pairing and connecting with a Bluetooth hands-free
headset or car kit
You can connect your phone to a Bluetooth hands-free headset or a
Bluetooth car kit and use those devices to listen to music and send
and/or receive calls. Before you can use a Bluetooth hands-free
headset or car kit, you must pair it first with your phone.
Important
The phone supports the following Bluetooth profiles: HSP 1.2
(Headset Profile 1.2), HFP 1.5 (Handsfree Profile 1.5), A2DP 1.2
(Advanced Audio Distribution Profile 1.2), AVRCP 1.0 (A/V Remote
Control Profile 1.0), GAVDP (Generic A/V Distribution Profile), and
GAP (Generic Access Profile).
118 Getting Connected
1. Press HOME > MENU, and then tap Settings.
2. Tap Wireless controls > Bluetooth settings and then select the
Bluetooth check box.
3. Tap Scan for devices. Your phone will start to scan for Bluetooth
devices within range and will display all detected devices below
the Bluetooth devices section.
Tips
• If you do not find the device in the list, tap Scan for devices to scan
again.
• Make sure that the Bluetooth device that you want to pair with is set
to discoverable mode. Consult the Bluetooth device’s documentation
to learn how to set it to discoverable mode.
4. Tap the hands-free headset or car kit in the list to start pairing.
Note For some Bluetooth devices, you need to enter a passcode to pair
with the Bluetooth device. You can try “0000” as the passcode. If
that does not work, consult the Bluetooth device’s documentation.
5. The pairing and connection status will appear below the handsfree headset or car kit name in the Bluetooth devices list. When
the other Bluetooth hands-free headset or car kit is connected
to your phone, the Bluetooth connected icon (
) will appear in
the status bar. You can now start using the hands-free headset or
car kit to listen to music and to make and/or receive phone calls.
