Personal Information and Data
Security
The use of some functions or third-party applications on
your device could result in your personal information and
data being lost or becoming accessible to others. Several
measures are recommended to help you protect personal
and confidential information.
• Place your device in a safe area to prevent it from
unauthorized use.
• Set your device screen to lock and create a password
or unlock pattern to open it.
• Periodically back up personal information kept on your
SIM card, memory card, or stored in your device
memory. If you change to a different device, be sure to
move or delete any personal information on your old
device.
• If you are worried about viruses when you receive
messages or emails from a stranger, you can delete
them without opening them.
• If you use your device to browse the Internet, avoid
websites that might pose a security risk to avoid theft
of your personal information.
• If you use services such as Wi-Fi tether or Bluetooth,
set passwords for these services to prevent
unauthorized access. When these services are not in
use, turn them off.
• Install or upgrade device security software and
regularly scan for viruses.
• Be sure to obtain third-party applications from a
legitimate source. Downloaded third-party
applications should be scanned for viruses.
• Install security software or patches released by Huawei
or third-party application providers.
• Some applications require and transmit location
information. As a result, a third-party may be able to
share your location information.
• Your device may provide detection and diagnostic
information to third-party application providers. Third
party vendors use this information to improve their
products and services.
• If you have concerns about the security of your
personal information and data, please contact
mobile@huawei.com.
Safety information
This section contains important information about the
operation of your device. It also contains information
about how to use the device safely. Read this information
carefully before using your device.

Do not use your device if using the device is prohibited.
Do not use the device if doing so causes danger or
interference with other electronic devices.
Interference with medical equipment
• Follow rules and regulations set forth by hospitals and
health care facilities. Do not use your device where
prohibited.
• Some wireless devices may affect the performance of
hearing aids or pacemakers. Consult your service
provider for more information.
• Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a
minimum distance of 15 cm be maintained between a
device and a pacemaker to prevent potential
interference with the pacemaker. If using a
pacemaker, hold the device on the side opposite the
pacemaker and do not carry the device in your front
pocket.
Protecting your hearing when using a headset
• Using a headset at high volumes may damage your
hearing. To reduce this risk, lower the headset volume
to a safe and comfortable level.
• Exposure to high volumes while driving may cause
distraction and increase your risk of an accident.
Areas with flammables and explosives
• Do not use the device where flammables or explosives
are stored (in a gas station, oil depot, or chemical
plant, for example). Using your device in these
environments increases the risk of explosion or fire. In
