Safety and use ..............................

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.

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 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.

Prolonged exposure to music at full volume using the music player may damage

your hearing. Set your cellphone’s volume to it’s lowest setting prior to

inserting headphones in your ears and adjust the volume to your preference.

Only use headphones that are recommended by TCT Mobile Limited and it’s

affiliates.

• 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 cellphone regarding

taking photographs and recording sounds with your cellphone. 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

cellphone (including the operator) disclaim any liability which may result from the

improper use of the cellphone.

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 “hands-free” 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.

Do not allow your cellphone 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 cellphone’s display may be impaired, though

this is temporary and not serious.

Do not open or attempt to repair your cellphone yourself.

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

Do not use the cellphone if the glass made screen, is damaged, cracked or broken

to avoid any injury.

Do not paint it.

Use only batteries, battery chargers, and accessories which are recommended 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.

• BATTERY AND ACCESSORIES:

Before removing the battery from your cellphone, please make sure that the

cellphone 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 a 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 TCT Mobile Limited and/or its affiliates.

This symbol on your cellphone, 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.

In non European Union jurisdictions:

Items of equipment with this symbol are not be thrown into ordinary bins if your

jurisdiction or your region has suitable recycling and collection facilities; instead they

are to be taken to collection points for them to be recycled.

In the United States you may learn more about CTIA’s Recycling Program at www.

recyclewirelessphones.com

CAUTION: RISK OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS REPLACED BY AN INCORRECT

TYPE. DISPOSE OF USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE INSTRUCTIONS

• CHARGERS

Home A.C./ Travel chargers will operate within the temperature range of: 0°C (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, 0.15 A

Output: 5 V, 550/1000 mA

Battery: Lithium 1300 mAh

• 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 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 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 1.04 W/Kg for use at

the ear and 1.04 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 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.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 10 mm away from the body.
