Safety and use
We recommend that you read this chapter carefully before using your
mobile phone. 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 mobile phone 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 mobile
phone when the vehicle is not parked. Check the laws and regulations
on the use of wireless mobile phones 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 mobile phone and headset to listen to
music or to the radio. Using a headset can be dangerous and forbidden
in some areas.
When switched on, your mobile phone 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 mobile phone 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 mobile phone RF
energy.
CONDITIONS OF USE:
You are advised to switch off the mobile phone from time to time to
optimize its performance.
Remember to abide by local authority rules of mobile phone use on
aircrafts.
Operational Warnings: Obey all posted signs when using mobile
devices in public areas.
Follow Instructions to Avoid Interference Problems: Turn off your
mobile device in any location where posted notices instruct you to do
so. In an aircraft, turn off your mobile device whenever instructed to
do so by airline staff. If your mobile device offers an airplane mode or
similar feature, consult airline staff about using it in flight.
Switch the mobile phone off when you are in health care facilities,
except in designated areas. As with many other types of equipment
now in regular use, mobile phones can interfere with other electrical

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 mobile phone or enabling a flashing-lights
feature on your mobile phone. Parents should monitor their children’s
use of video games or other features that incorporate flashing lights
on the mobile phones. 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 mobile phone, 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.
PROTECT YOUR HEARING
To prevent possible hearing damage, do not listen at high
volume levels for long periods. Exercise caution when holding
your device near your ear while the loudspeaker is in use.
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 mobile
phone regarding taking photographs and recording sounds with your
mobile phone. 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 mobile phone (including
the operator) disclaim any liability which may result from the improper
use of the mobile phone.
Switch the mobile phone 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 mobile phone 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 mobile phone you should hold it
against the ear on the opposite side to the device, if any.
Read and follow the directions from the manufacturer of your
implantable medical device. If you have any questions about using
your mobile device with your implantable medical device, consult your
healthcare provider.
To avoid hearing impairment, answer the call before holding your
mobile phone 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 mobile phone.
Please note the battery of your phone is not removable. If you
disassemble your phone the warranty will not apply. Disassembling the
phone may damage the battery, and may cause leakage of substances
that could create an allergic reaction.
Always handle your mobile phone with care and keep it in a clean and
dust-free place.
Do not allow your mobile phone to be exposed to adverse weather
or environmental conditions (moisture, humidity, rain, infiltration of
liquids, dust, sea air, etc.). The manufacturer’s recommended operating
temperature range is -10°C (14°F) to +55°C (131°F) (the max value
depends on device, materials and housing paint/texture).
Over 55°C (131°F) the legibility of the mobile phone’s display may be
impaired, though this is temporary and not serious.
Do not open or attempt to repair your mobile phone yourself.
Do not drop, throw, or try to bend your mobile phone.
Do not use the mobile phone if the glass made screen, is damaged,
cracked, or broken to avoid any injury.
Do not paint it.

Radio Waves
THIS MOBILE PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS
FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your mobile phone 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 mobile phones 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 mobile phone transmitting
at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands.
BATTERY AND ACCESSORIES:
Following new air regulation, the battery of your product is not
charged. Please charge it first.
For non-unibody device:
Before removing the battery from your mobile phone, please make
sure that the mobile phone 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 the battery,
- Do not burn or dispose of a used battery in the garbage or store it at
temperatures above 60°C (140°F).
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 TCL Communication Ltd. and/or its affiliates.
For unibody device:
Please note your phone is a unibody device, the back cover and battery
are not removable. Observe the following precautions:
- Do not attempt to open the back cover,
- Do not attempt to eject, replace and open battery,
- Do not punctuate the back cover of your phone,
- Do not burn or dispose of your phone in household rubbish or store it
at temperature above 60°C.
Phone and battery as a unibody device must be disposed of in
accordance with locally applicable environmental regulations.
This symbol on your mobile phone, the battery, and the
accessories means that these products must be taken to
collection points at the end of their life:
- Municipal waste disposal centers with specific bins for these
items of equipment
- Collection bins at points of sale.
They will then be recycled, preventing substances being disposed of in
the environment, so that their components can be reused.
In European Union countries:
These collection points are accessible free of charge. All products with
this sign must be brought to these collection points.

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 mobile phone 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 mobile
phone at least 10 mm away from the body.
Please note by using the device some of your personal data may
be shared with the main device. It is under your own responsibility
to protect your own personal data, not to share with it with any
unauthorized devices or third party devices connected to yours. For
products with Wi-Fi features, only connect to trusted Wi-Fi networks.
Also when using your product as a hotspot (where available), use
network security. These precautions will help prevent unauthorized
access to your device. Your product can store personal information
in various locations including a SIM card, memory card, and built-in
memory. Be sure to remove or clear all personal information before
you recycle, return, or give away your product. Choose your apps and
updates carefully, and install from trusted sources only. Some apps
can impact your product’s performance and/or have access to private
information including account details, call data, location details and
network resources.
Note that any data shared with TCL Communication Ltd. is stored
in accordance with applicable data protection legislation. For these
purposes TCL Communication Ltd. implements and maintains
appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect
all personal data, for example against unauthorized or unlawful
processing and accidental loss or destruction of or damage to such
personal data whereby the measures shall provide a level of security
that is appropriate having regard to
Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level,
the actual SAR level of the mobile phone while operating can be
well below the maximum value. This is because the mobile phone 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
mobile phone. Before a mobile phone model is available for sale to
the public, compliance with national regulations and standards must
be shown.
The highest SAR value for this model mobile phone when tested is
0.62 W/Kg for use at the ear and 1.43 W/Kg for use close to the body.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various
mobile phones and at various positions, they all meet the government
requirement for RF exposure. For body-worn operation, the mobile
phone meets FCC RF exposure guidelines provided that it is used with
a non-metallic accessory with the handset at least 10 mm from the
body. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC
RF exposure guidelines.
Additional information on SAR can be found on the Cellular
Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) Web site: http://
www.ctia.org/
The World Health Organization (WHO) considers that present scientific
information does not indicate the need for any special precautions
for use of mobile phones. 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 mobile
phones 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.
