We recommend that you read this chapter carefully before using your
cellphone. 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 cellphone 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 cellphone when the vehicle is
not parked. Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless cellphones
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 cellphone and headphone to listen to music
or to the radio. Using a headphone can be dangerous and forbidden in some
areas.
When switched on, your cellphone 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 cellphone 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 cellphone RF energy.
• CONDITIONS OF USE:
You are advised to switch off the cellphone from time to time to optimize
its performance.
Remember to abide by local authority rules of cellphone 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 cellphone off when you are in health care facilities, except in designated
areas. As with many other types of equipment now in regular use, cellphones can
interfere with other electrical or electronic devices, or equipment using radio
frequency.
Switch the cellphone 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 cellphone 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 cellphone 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 cellphone to
your ear. Also move the handset away from your ear while using the “handsfree” option because the amplified volume might cause hearing damage.
It is recommended to have proper supervision while small children use your
cellphone.
When replacing the cover please note that your cellphone may contain
substances that could create an allergic reaction.
Always handle your cellphone with care and keep it in a clean and dust-free
place.

though this is temporary and not serious.

Do not drop, throw or try to bend your cellphone.
Do not paint it.

by TCT Mobile Limited and its affiliates and are compatible with your cellphone
model.TCT Mobile Limited and its affiliates disclaim any liability for damage
caused by the use of other chargers or batteries.
Your cellphone should not be disposed of in a municipal waste. Please check
local regulations for disposal of electronic products.
Remember to make back-up copies or keep a written record of all important
information stored in your cellphone.
Some people may suffer epileptic seizures or blackouts when exposed to
flashing lights, or when playing video games. These seizures or blackouts may
occur even if a person never had a previous seizure or 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
cellphone or enabling a flashing-lights feature on your cellphone. Parents should
monitor their children’s use of video games or other features that incorporate
flashing lights on the cellphones. 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 cellphone, 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

(32°F) to 40°C (104°F).
The chargers designed for your cellphone meet with the standard for safety
of information technology equipment and office equipment use. Due to
different applicable electrical specifications, a charger you purchased in one
jurisdiction may not work in another jurisdiction. They should be used for
this purpose only.
Characteristics of power supply (depending on the country):
Travel charger: Input: 100~240 V, 50/60 Hz, 0.15A
Output: 5V, 400/550 mA
Battery:

• RADIO WAVES:
THIS CELLPHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR
EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your cellphone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radiofrequency (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 cellphones 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 cellphone 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 cellphone while operating can be well below the maximum
value. This is because the cellphone 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 cellphone. Before a cellphone model is available for sale to the
public, compliance with national regulations and standards must be shown.
The highest SAR value for this model cellphone when tested is 0.999 W/Kg for
use at the ear and 1.12 W/Kg for use close to the body.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various cellphones
and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement for RF
exposure. For body-worn operation, the cellphone meets FCC RF exposure
guidelines provided that it is used with a non-metallic accessory with the
handset at least 1.5 cm 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.phonefacts.net
The World Health Organization (WHO) considers that present scientific
information does not indicate the need for any special precautions for use of
cellphones. 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 cellphones 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.
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 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 technician for help.
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 cellphone 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 cellphone at least 1.5 cm away
from the body.
