call, please hold your phone as holding a wireline telephone.
Make sure that the phone is about one inch from your body
when transmitting.
 Do not touch the antenna when the phone is in use. Touching
the antenna area affects call quality and may cause the phone
to operate at a higher power level than needed.
 Some people may be susceptible to epileptic seizures or
blackouts when exposed to flashing lights, such as when
watching television or playing video games. 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 phone or enabling a flashing-light
feature on your phone. (The flashing-light feature is not
available on all products.)
 Keep the phone out of the reach of small children. The phone
may cause injury if used as a toy.
Precautions While Driving
 Please pay attention to the traffic safety. Check the laws and
regulations on the use of your phone in the area where you
drive. Always obey them.
 Use hands-free function of the phone, if available.
 Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if
conditions require.
Precautions for Medical Devices and Facilities
 When using your phone near pacemakers, please always keep
the phone more than eight inches (about twenty centimeters)
from the pacemaker when the phone is switched on. Do not
carry the phone in the breast pocket. Use the ear opposite the
pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference. Switch off
the phone immediately if necessary.
 Some phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the

Precautions for Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
 Switch off your phone prior to entering any area with potentially
explosive atmosphere, such as fueling areas, fuel or chemical
transfer or storage facilities.
 Do not remove, install, or charge batteries in such areas. Spark
in a potentially explosive atmosphere can cause an explosion or
fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
 Power off your mobile phone or wireless device when in a
blasting area or in areas posted power off “two-way radios” or
“electronic devices” to avoid interfering with blasting operations.
Precautions for Electronic Devices
 Some electronic devices are susceptible to electromagnetic
interference sent by mobile phone if inadequately shielded,
such as electronic system of vehicles. Please consult the
manufacturer of the device before using the phone if necessary.
Safety and General Use in Vehicles
 Safety airbag, brake, speed control system and oil eject system
shouldn’t be affected by wireless transmission. If you do meet
problems above, please contact your automobile provider. Do
not place your phone in the area over an airbag or in the airbag
deployment area. Airbags inflate with great force. If a phone is
placed in the airbag deployment area and the airbag inflates,
the phone may be propelled with great force and cause serious
injury to occupants of the vehicle.
 Please turn off your mobile phone at a refueling point, and the
same to the place where the use of two-way radio is prohibited.
Aircraft Safety
 Switch off your wireless device whenever you are instructed to
do so by airport or airline staff.
 Consult the airline staff about the use of wireless devices on
board the aircraft. If your device offers a ‘flight mode’, this must
be enabled prior to boarding an aircraft.
Battery Use
 Do not short-circuit the battery, as this can cause the unit to
overheat or ignite.
 Do not store battery in hot areas or throw it into fire. Otherwise,
it will cause explosion.
 Do not disassemble or refit the battery. Otherwise, it will cause
liquid leakage, overheating, explosion and ignition of the battery.
 Please store the battery in a cool dry place if you don’t use it for
a long period.
 The battery can be recharged for hundreds of times, but it will
eventually wear out. When the operating time (talk time and idle
time) is noticeably shorter than normal, it is time to replace it
with a new one.
 Please stop using the charger and battery when they are
damaged or show evidence of aging.
 Return the worn-out battery to the provider or dispose of it in
accordance with environment regulations. Do not dispose of it in
household rubbish.
 Please use original batteries or batteries approved by the phone
manufacturer. Using any unauthorized battery may affect your
handset performance or may cause danger of explosion, etc.
Warning: If the battery is damaged, do not discharge it. If the
leakage does come into contact with the eyes or skin, wash
thoroughly in clean water and consult a doctor.
FCC Com plia nc e
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
harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not

H e a lt h a nd sa fe t y inform a t ion
Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
This model phone meets the government’s requirements for exposure to
radio waves.
This phone 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 phones employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR
limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg. Tests for SAR are conducted using
standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the phone
11
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 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 model phone as reported to the FCC
when tested for use at the ear is 1.260W/kg and when worn on the body,
as described in this user guide, is1.180W/kg (Body-worn measurements
differ among phone models, depending upon available enhancements
and FCC requirements).
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various
phones and at various positions, they all meet the government
requirement.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone
with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF
exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file
with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on
FCC ID: Q78-S236
For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the
FCC RF exposure guidelines for use with an accessory that contains no
12
metal and the positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body.
Use of other enhancements may not ensure compliance with FCC RF
exposure guidelines. If you do not use a body-worn accessory and are
not holding the phone at the ear, position the handset a minimum of 1.5
cm from your body when the phone is switched on.
