• PRIVACY:
Please note that you must respect the laws and regulations in force in your country regarding taking photographs and
recording sounds using your mobile telephone. 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
authorisation be obtained,
if necessary, in order to record private or confidential conversations or take a photograph of another person; the
manufacturer, the seller or reseller of your mobile phone (including the operator) disclaim any liability which may result
from the improper use of the mobile phone.
• BATTERY:
Before removing the battery from your phone, please make sure that the 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, do not burn batteries or dispose of them in household rubbish, and do not expose to
temperatures in excess of 60°C. 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 not
recommended by Alcatel.
•CHARGERS
Mains powered chargers will operate within the temperature range: 0°C to 40°C.
The chargers designed for your mobile phone meet with the standard for safety of information technology equipment and
office equipment use. They should be used for this purpose only.
Electrical Characteristic of power supply (depending on the country):
110 V charger (used in Mexico):
Input: 100-127 V, 50/60 Hz, 0.30 A
Output: 4.5 V, 350 mA
220 V charger:
Input: 220-240 V, 50/60 Hz, 0.30 A
Output: 4.5 V, 350 mA
Travel charger:
Input: 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz, 0.15 A
Output: 6.5 V, 350 mA
Battery: Lithium 800 mAh

Safety and Use ......................................................
We recommend that you read this chapter carefully before using your phone. The manufacturer disclaims any liability for
damage, which may result as a consequence of improper use or use contrary to the instructions contained in this manual.
•TRAFFIC SAFETY:
Given studies, which show that using a mobile phone while driving a vehicle constitutes a real risk, even when the handsfree
kit is used (car kit, headset...), drivers are requested to refrain from using their mobile when the vehicle is not parked.
When switched on, your 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 phone on top of the dashboard or within an airbag deployment area.
- check with your dealer or car manufacturer to make sure that the car electronics is well insulated.
•CONDITIONS OF USE:
Switch off the phone before boarding an aircraft to avoid prosecution.
Switch off the phone when you are in health care facilities, except in designated areas. As with other types of equipment
now in regular use, mobile phones can interfere with the operation of other electric, electronic or radio frequency devices
in their vicinity.
When the telephone is on, it should not come closer than 15 cm to any medical device (i.e. cardiac pacemaker, hearing aid,
insulin pump, etc.). When making or receiving a call, make sure you place the phone against the ear that is furthest away
from the pacemaker or the hearing aid (if there is only one).
Switch the phone off when you are near gas or flammable liquids. Strictly obey the rules relating to the use of mobile phones
at fuel depots, petrol stations, chemical plants or in any potentially explosive atmosphere.
Do not allow children to use your mobile phone without supervision.
Do not open or attempt to repair your mobile phone yourself.
Move the handset away from your ear while using the “handsfree” option because the amplified volume might cause
hearing damage.
Only use your telephone with Alcatel batteries, chargers and accessories compatible with your model (see page 92). The
manufacturer disclaims any liability for damage caused by the use of other chargers or batteries. Do not allow your phone
to be exposed to adverse weather or environmental conditions (dampness, rain, infiltration, dust, sea air, etc.). The
minimum and maximum temperatures recommended by the manufacturer are between -10°C and +55°C. Beyond 55°C,
the legibility of the display may be impaired, but this is temporary and not serious.

General Information ............................................
•Internet address: www.alcatel.com - Wap address: wap.alcatel.com
•Alcatel Hot Line Number: see the “Alcatel Services” leaflet (calls charged at applicable local rates in
your country)
An electronic version of this user guide is available in English and other languages according to availability on
our Alcatel Server: www.alcatel.com
Your telephone is a transceiver that operates on GSM networks with 900, 1800 and 1900 MHz bands.
Protection against theft
Your mobile phone has an identification number called IMEI (phone serial number) shown on the packaging
label and in the product’s memory. We recommend that you note this number the first time you use your
telephone by entering , , , , and keep it safely. It may be requested by the police or your
operator if your telephone is stolen. This number allows your mobile telephone to be blocked, preventing
a third person from using it, even with a different SIM card.

•RADIO WAVES:
THIS MODEL 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 organisations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The guidelines include a substantial
safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless 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), the Australian Communications Authority (ACA) 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 phone transmitting at its highest certified power
level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level
of the phone while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the 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 phone. Before a 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 phone when
tested for use at the ear is 0.20 W/Kg and for use close to the body is 0.25 W/Kg. While there may be differences between
the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement for RF exposure.
For body-worn operation, the phone meets FCC RF exposure guidelines provided that it is used with a non-metallic
accessory with the handset at least 2 cm from the body. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF
exposure guidelines.
Your telephone is equipped with a built-in antenna. For optimal operation, you should avoid touching it or degrading it (see
page 14).
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 site: http://www.who.int/peh-emf."
