Optimize Memory Usage

Apps use two kinds of memory: internal storage and RAM. They

use internal storage for themselves and any files, settings, and

other data they use. They also use RAM (memory designed for

temporary storage and fast access) when they're running.

The memory available capacity shown is based on the actual usage capacity

after reduced by system usage.

Android also manages how apps use RAM. It may cache some

things you've been using recently, for quicker access if you need

them again, but it will erase the cache if it needs the RAM for

new activities.

You affect the way apps use internal storage directly and

indirectly in many ways, for example by:

 Installing or uninstalling apps.

 Downloading files in Browser, Gmail, and other apps.

 Creating files (for example, by taking pictures).

 Deleting downloaded files or files you created.

 Copying files between your device and a computer via

USB or Bluetooth.

You rarely need to manage the way apps use RAM. But you can

monitor apps RAM usage and stop them if they misbehave.

data in your mobile phone.

Attention:

 Use cell phone when the signal is good. Keep

your calls short, use headset or send a text

message. This advice applies especially to children, adolescents

and pregnant women.

 If you are using a Bluetooth headset device, please make

sure it has a low power emitter.

 Information about the meaning of Logo WEEE (Waste

Electrical and Electronic Equipment):

The WEEE logo on the product or on its box

indicates that this product must not be

disposed of or dumped with your other

household waste. You are liable to dispose

of all your electronic or electrical waste equipment by

relocating over to the specified collection point for recycling of

such hazardous waste. Isolated collection and proper recovery

of your electronic and electrical waste equipment at the time

of disposal will allow us to help conserving natural resources.

Moreover, proper recycling of the electronic and electrical

waste equipment will ensure safety of human health and

environment.

 Caution: risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an

incorrect type.

 Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.

 For pluggable equipment, the socket-outlet shall be installed

near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.

 RADIO WAVES:

Proof of compliance with international standards (ICNIRP) or

with European Directive 1999/5/EC (R&TTE) is required of all

mobile phone models before they can be put on the market.

The protection of the health and safety for the user and any

other person is an essential requirement of these standards or

this directive.

THIS DEVICE MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR

EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.

Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is

designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves

(radio frequency electromagnetic fields) recommended by

international guidelines. The guidelines were developed by an

independent scientific organization (ICNIRP) and include a

substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all

persons, regardless of age and health.

The radio wave exposure guidelines use a unit of measurement

known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit

for mobile devices is 1.6 W/kg.

Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions

with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level

in all tested frequency bands. The highest SAR values under the

ICNIRP guidelines for this device model are:

Maximum SAR for this model and conditions under which it

was recorded.

SAR

Body

0.788 W/kg

SAR

Head

0.874 W/kg

During use, the actual SAR values for this device are usually

well below the values stated above. This is because, for

purposes of system efficiency and to minimize interference on

the network, the operating power of your mobile device is

automatically decreased when full power is not needed for the

call. The lower the power output of the device, the lower its

SAR value.

If you are not using an approved accessory ensure that

whatever product is used is free of any metal and that it

positions the phone the indicated distance away from the body.

Organizations such as the World Health Organization has stated

that if people are concerned and want to reduce their exposure

they could use a hands-free device to keep the phone away

from the head and body during phone calls, or reduce the

amount of time spent on the phone.

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 phone at least 1.0 cm away from

the body.

To prevent possible hearing damage, do not listen at

high volume levels for long periods.

Using the battery and charger

Only use batteries and chargers approved by the manufacturer.

Do not use batteries or chargers that are not compatible with

your model to avoid any explosion.

Do not throw a battery in a fire as it might catch fire or explode.

Do not cause a short circuit to the charger as it might result in

malfunction, smoke or fire.

Do not place conductors like metals, keys or jewels, against the

battery poles or allow them to touch the ends of the battery to

avoid short circuiting the battery and causing injury (burns, for

example) as a result of battery overheating

If the power cable is damaged (wires exposed or broken) or the

connection to the plug is loose, do not use it to avoid electric

shock, short-circuit of the charger or a fire.

Do not dismantle the battery or weld the two poles of the

battery to prevent the battery from leaking, overheating,

catching fire or exploding.

Keep the charger away from any container of water or other

liquids. Infiltration of liquid may cause electric leakage or other

malfunction to the charger.

If the battery leaks, emits smoke or a strange odour, cease use

immediately and move it far away from naked flames or people

to avoid a fire or injury from explosion.

Do not charge the battery in a dusty or damp environment and

keep the cable away from heated objects.

The battery is not fully charged when leaving the factory.

Therefore, you should charge the battery for two hours before

use. Before charging, make sure the charge plug is correctly

inserted in the power socket. If it is incorrectly inserted, electric

shock might occur and the phone or battery may catch fire or

explode. When charging is completed, pull out the charger plug

from the power socket, and do not pull the cable.

If the liquid in the battery splashes into your eyes, do not rub

the eyes to avoid damaging your vision, rinse the eyes

immediately in clean water and go to a hospital for assistance.

Do not place heavy objects on the charger cable. Do not

damage, twist or pull the cable to avoid causing electric shock

or fire.

When the battery cannot be installed correctly in the phone, do

not press down on it heavily to prevent it from leaking or

exploding. Do not remove the battery when the phone is on.

If the battery is distorted, has changed colour or is unusually

hot when charging or when it is stored, remove immediately

the battery and stop using it or it may leak, become overheated,

explode or catch fire.

If a battery is not used for a long period of time after charging,

store it at room temperature

Do not touch the power socket, power cable or charger with

wet hands to avoid electric shock.

If water or other liquid enters the charger, immediately

disconnect the charger plug from the power socket to prevent

it from overheating, catching a fire or malfunction.
