Please consult the manufacturer of your device before using if necessary. • Operating your device may interfere with medical devices like hearing aids and pacemakers. Please always keep them more than 20 centimeters away from such medical devices when they are turned on. Turn your device off if necessary. Consult a physician or the manufacturer of the medical device before using your device. • Be aware of the usage limitation when using your device at places such as oil warehouses or chemical factories, where there are explosive gases or explosive products being processed. Turn off your device if required. • The use of electronic transmitting devices is forbidden in aircrafts, at petrol stations and in hospitals. Please observe and obey all warning signs and switch off your device in these conditions. • Do not touch the inner antenna area if not necessary. Otherwise it will affect your device’s performance. • Store your device out of the reach of little children. Your device may cause injury if
34 used as a toy. • Do not touch the metallic parts of your device so as to avoid a burn, when your device is working. Using Your Device • Please use original accessories or accessories that are authorized. Using any unauthorized accessories may affect your device’s performance, and violate related national regulations about telecom terminals. • Avoid using your device near or inside metallic structures or establishments that can emit electromagnetic waves. Otherwise it may influence signal reception. • Your device is not waterproof. Please keep it dry and store in a shady and cool place. • Do not use your device immediately after a sudden temperature change. In such case, it will produce dew inside and outside your device, so don’t use it until it becomes dry. • Handle your device carefully. Do not drop, bend or strike it. Otherwise your device will be damaged. • No dismantling by non-professionals and only qualified technicians can undertake repair work. • Operating temperature range of 0℃ ~ +35℃ and humidity range of 5% ~ 95% are recommended. • Do not connect the charger while using the device for a long period. Failing to do so will trigger the protection mechanism of the battery, and the battery will not be charged. If you want to charge the battery, please reconnect the charger. • Do not connect the charger while using the device for a long period or use the device and battery in non-operating temperature. Failing to do so will shorten battery life or cause battery swelling or leakage. If the battery shows signs of swelling or leakage, please stop use immediately. Using Battery • Do not short-circuit the battery, as this can cause excessive heat and fire. • Do not store battery in hot areas or dispose of it in a fire to avoid explosion. • Do not disassemble or modify the battery. • When not using the battery for a long period, remove it from your device and store it in a cool dry place. • Never use any charger or battery damaged or worn out. • Return the worn-out battery to the provider or put it in the appointed recycle place. Do not dispose of the battery in the trash. WARNING! If the battery is broken, keep away from it. If it taints your skin, wash your skin with abundant fresh water and ask doctor for help if necessary.
35 Radio Frequency (RF) Energy This device meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves. This device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government: The exposure standard for wireless mobile devices employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. *Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the device 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 device while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the device is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the poser required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output. The highest SAR value for the device as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the ear is 1.19 W/kg and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 1.41 W/kg (Body-worn measurements differ among device models, depending upon available enhancements and FCC requirements.) While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various devices and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this device with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this device is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/ after searching on: FCC ID: SRQ-MF985 SAR compliance for body operation is based on a separation distance of 10 mm between the unit and the human body. Carry this device, at least 10 mm away from your body to ensure RF exposure level compliant or lower to the reported level. FCC Compliance 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 manufacturer 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
36 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 technician for help. CTIA Requirements a) Do not disassemble or open crush, bend or deform, puncture or shred b) Do not modify or remanufacture, attempt to insert foreign objects into the battery, immerse or expose to water or other liquids, expose to fire, explosion or other hazard. c) Only use the battery for the system for which it is specified d) Only use the battery with a charging system that has been qualified with the system per CTIA Certification Requirements for Battery System Compliance to IEEE 1725. Use of an unqualified battery or charger may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard. e) Do not short circuit a battery or allow metallic conductive objects to contact battery terminals. f) Replace the battery only with another battery that has been qualified with the system per this standard, IEEE-Std-1725. Use of an unqualified battery may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage or other hazard. g) Promptly dispose of used batteries in accordance with local regulations h) Battery usage by children should be supervised i) Avoid dropping the phone or battery. If the phone or battery is dropped, especially on a hard surface, and the user suspects damage, take it to a service center for inspection. j) Improper battery use may result in a fire, explosion or other hazard. For those host devices that utilize a USB port as a charging source, the host device's user manual shall include a statement that the phone shall only be connected to CTIA certified adapters, products that bear the USB-IF logo or products that have completed the USB-IF compliance program.
