Please read through the following briefings
carefully, and act in accordance with these rules,
so as to prevent causing any danger or violating any law.
• Your mobile phone model has been designed to
compile with applicable safety requirements for
exposure to radio waves. The radio wave exposure
guidelines employ a unit of measurement called
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The recommended
SAR limit for mobile handset is 1.6 W/Kg averaged
over a 6 minutes period and taken over a volume
containing a mass 1g of human tissue.
•Use cell phone when the signal strength is good. Keep
your calls short or instead 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.

On The Road
Using a phone while driving is illegal in many countries.
Please follow local laws and drive safely at all times.
Near Sensitive Electronics
Don’t use your phone near sensitive electronic
equipment – particularly medical devices such as
pacemakers – as it could cause them to malfunction. It
can also interfere with the operation of fire detectors and
other automatic-control equipment.

contact the manufacturer or your local distributor.
Your phone may cause interference when used near TVs,
radios or automated office equipment.
While Flying
Your phone can cause interference with aircraft
equipment. So it’s essential you follow airline regulations.
And if airline personnel ask you to switch off your phone,
or disable its wireless functions, please do as they say.
In Hospital
Your phone may interfere with the normal operation of
medical equipment. Follow all hospital regulations and
turn it off when you’re asked to by posted warnings or
medical staff.
At a Petrol Station
Don’t use your phone at petrol stations. In fact, it’s always
best to switch off whenever you’re near fuels, chemicals
or explosives.
Around Water
Keep your phone away from water (or any other liquid).
It’s not a waterproof model.
Making Repairs
Never take your phone apart. Please leave that to the
professionals. Unauthorized repairs could break the terms
of your warranty.

Around Children
Keep your mobile out of children’s reach. It should never
be used as a toy and it might not be good for their health.
Original Accessories
Only use the original accessories supplied with your
phone or those approved by the manufacturer. Using
unapproved accessories may affect performance, make
the warranty void, break national regulations on the use
of mobile phones, or even cause injury.
Near Explosives
Turn off your phone in or near areas where explosive
materials are used. Always obey local laws and turn off
your phone when requested.
Emergency Calls
To make an emergency call your phone must be turned
on and in an area where there’s network coverage. Dial
the national emergency number and press ‘send’. Explain
exactly where you are and don’t hang up until help has
arrived.
Working Temperature
The working temperature for the phone is between 0
Degree and 40 Degree Celsius. Please don’t use the
phone outside the range. Using the phone under too high
or too low temperature might cause problems.
At very high volume, prolonged listening to a
mobile phone can damage your hearing.

Your device is a product of superior design and
craftsmanship and should be handled with care: The
following suggestions will help you protect your phone:
Always keep the small parts of the phone away
from children.
Keep the device dry. Precipitation, humidity, and
all types of liquids or moisture can contain
minerals that will rust electronic circuits. If your
device does get wet, remove the battery, and
allow the device to dry completely before
replacing it.
Do not use or store the device in dusty, dirty areas.
Its moving parts and electronic components can be
damaged.
Do not store the device in high or cold
temperature. High temperatures can shorten the
life of electronic devices and damage batteries.
Do not attempt to open the device other than as
instructed in this guide.
Do not drop, knock, or shake the device. Rough
handling can break internal circuit boards and fine
mechanics.
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or
strong detergents to clean the device. Only use a
soft, clean, dry cloth to clean the surface of the
device.
Do not paint the device. Paint can clog the moving
parts and prevent proper operation.
Use indoor chargers.
![](/img.php?id=2297208&img=bg16.png)
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, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation.
CAUTION: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the
equipment.
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 will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful 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 technici
an for help.
This device has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines.
The highest reported SAR values for head, body-worn accessory,
simultaneous transmission conditions are
0.279W/kg(1g), 0.668W/kg(1g), 0.833W/kg(1g) respectively.
WARNING!! Read this information before using your phone
In August 1986 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the United
States with its action in Report and Outer FCC 96-326 adopted an updated
safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic
energy emitted by FCC regulated transmitters. Those guidelines are
consistent with the safety standard previously set by both U.S. and
international standards bodies. The design of this phone complies with the
FCC guidelines and these international standards. Use only the supplied or an
approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas modifications, or attachments
could impair call quality, damage the phone, or result in violation of FCC
regulations. Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged
antenna comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Please
contact your local dealer for replacement antenna.
![](/img.php?id=2297208&img=bg17.png)
BODY-WORN OPERATION:
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the back of the
phone kept 1.0cm from the body. To comply with FCC RF exposure
requirements, a minimum separation distance of 1.0cm must be maintained
between the user's body and the back of the phone, including the antenna,
whether extended or retracted. Third-party belt-clips, holsters and similar
accessories containing metallic components shall not be used. Body-worn
accessories
that cannot maintain 1.0cm separation distance between the user’s body
and the back of the phone, and have not been tested for typical body-worn
operations may not comply with FCC RF exposure limits and should be
avoided.

For more information about RF exposure, please visit the FCC website at
www.fcc.gov
Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low power radio transmitter
and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and also sends out radio frequency
(RF) signals. In August, 1996, the Federal Communications Commissions
(FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for hand-held
wireless phones. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standards
previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies:
<ANSIC95.1> (1992) / <NCRP Report 86> (1986) / <ICIMIRP> (1996)
Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic evaluations of
the relevant scientific literature. For example, over 120 scientists, engineers,
and physicians from universities, government health agencies, and industry
reviewed the available body of research to develop the ANSI Standard
(C95.1). Nevertheless, we recommend that you use a hands-free kit with
your phone (such as an earpiece or headset) to avoid potential exposure to
RF energy. The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines (and
those standards).
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized
antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the phone and may
violate FCC regulations.
