Safety airbag, brake, speed control system and oil eject system shouldn’t be
affected by wireless transmitting. 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 2-way radio is prohibited.

your alarm setting to ensure that your phone will not be automatically turned on
8
during flight.
Battery use
Do not short-circuit the battery, as this can cause overheating to bring about fire.
Do not store battery in hot areas or throw it into fire. Otherwise, it will cause
explosion.

Exposure to radio frequency energy
Radio wave exposure and Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) information
The handset is designed to comply with safely, requirements for exposure to radio
waves. This requirement is based on scientific guidelines that include safety
margins designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The radio wave exposure guidelines employ a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. Tests for SAR are conducted using a
standardized method with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level
in all used frequency bands.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various ZTE phone
models, they are all designed to meet the relevant guidelines for exposure to radio
waves.
The SAR limit recommended is 1.6W/kg averaged over one(1) gramme of tissue.
The highest SAR value for this model phone tested by MORLAB for use at the head
is 0.566 W/kg(1g)
The highest SAR value for this model phone tested by MORLAB for use at the body
is 0.683W/kg(1g)
SAR compliance for body-worn operations is restricted to belt-clips, holsters, or
similar accessories that have no metallic component in the assembly and which
provide at least 1.5 cm separation between the device, including its antenna, and
10
the users body
Warning: If the battery is damaged, keep away from the discharge. If the leakage does
come into contact the eyes or skin, please wash thoroughly in clean water and consult
with a doctor.
