20

compartment. Gently push down on the battery until it clicks into place.
WARNING: Do not handle a damaged or leaking Li-Ion battery as you can be burned.
4. Press the cover gently back into place until you hear a click.
21
Removing the Battery and microSD Card
1. Make sure that your mobile phone is turned off.
2. Remove the back cover.
3. Lift the battery up and out.
4. Slide the microSD card out gently and remove it.
Charging the Battery
When you first get your new phone you’ll need to charge the battery like this:
NOTE: Although the battery comes partially charged, it is recommended you fully charge the battery before using
your device for the first time.
1. Connect the adapter to the charger jack. Ensure that the adapter is inserted with the correct orientation. Do not
force the connector into the charger jack.
22
2. Connect the charger to a standard AC wall outlet.
3. Disconnect the charger when the battery is fully charged.
WARNING: Use only ZTE-approved batteries and chargers with your device. The failure to use a ZTE-approved
battery and charger may increase the risk that your device will overheat, catch fire or explode, resulting in serious
bodily injury, death or property damage.
How much charge have you got?
If the battery is low, there will be a pop-up message on the screen and the LED indicator will be red. As you charge
your phone, the screen will tell you the exact battery level each time you wake up your phone.
If the phone is on, you‘ll see this charging icon / appear on the status bar. As soon as charging is completed,
this icon appears on the status bar.
23
Extending the Battery Life
Active applications, screen brightness levels, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi usage and GPS functionality can drain your
battery. You can follow the helpful tips below to conserve your battery power:
• Reduce the screen backlight time.
• Lower the screen brightness.
• Turn Bluetooth off when not in use.
• Turn Wi-Fi off when not in use.
• Disable the GPS function when not in use. Most applications using this function will periodically query the GPS
satellites for your current location; each query drains your battery.
• When taking pictures, do not use a flash unless you have to.
Switching Your Phone On/Off
1. Make sure the battery is charged.
2. Hold the Power Key to switch on your phone. If your phone is activated, it will search for Sprint service and
enter the standby mode.
3. To switch it off, hold the Power Key to get the phone options. Select Power off, and then tap OK.

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 1.6 W/kg.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the phone 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 power 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 values for this model phone as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the ear and on the
body are:
Head: 1.14 W/kg, Body: 1.19 W/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 individual ZTE Fury 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/ea/fccid after searching on
146
FCC ID: Q78-ZTEN850
For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines for use with an
accessory that contains no metal and that 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 1.0 cm from your body
when the phone is switched on.
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 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.
147
• 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.
Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid Device
Your ZTE Fury is compliant with the FCC Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) requirements. For additional HAC
information, including the HAC rating of this product, please refer to www.zteusa-support.com.
When some wireless phones are used near some hearing devices (hearing aids and cochlear implants), users
may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this
interference noise, and phones also vary in the amount of interference they generate. The wireless telephone
industry has developed ratings for some of their mobile phones to assist hearing device users in finding phones
that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phones have been rated. Phones that have been rated
have a label on the box.
Your ZTE Fury has been tested for hearing aid device compatibility and has an M4/T4.
These ratings are not guaranteed. Results will vary, depending on the level of immunity of your hearing device and
the degree of your hearing loss. If your hearing device happens to be vulnerable to interference, you may not be
able to use a rated phone successfully. Trying out the phone with your hearing device is the best way to evaluate it
for your personal needs.
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to generate less interference with
hearing devices than phones that are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.
T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to be more usable with a hearing
device’s telecoil (“T Switch” or “Telephone Switch”) than unrated phones. T4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.
(Note that not all hearing devices contain telecoils.) The more immune your hearing aid device is, the less likely
you are to experience interference noise from your wireless phone.
148
Hearing devices may also be measured for immunity to this type of interference. Your hearing device
manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you find results for your hearing device.
For additional information about the FCC's actions with regard to hearing aid compatible wireless devices and
other steps the FCC has taken to ensure that individuals with disabilities have access to telecommunications
services, please go to www.fcc.gov/cgb/dro.
Turning on the HAC Setting
To turn on the HAC function, tap Home Key > Menu Key > Settings > Call settings and tick the Hearing aids
check box. For detailed information, refer to “Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid Device” on page xxx.
This section applies to T-Rating only and hearing aids that contain telecoils. When the HAC setting is on, your ZTE
Fury sends the audio from your phone calls to the telecoil rather than to the microphone of your hearing aid. You
are likely to hear calls much better because volume is increased and background noise and feedback are
diminished. The HAC setting improves only the calls you listen to through the earpiece. It does not affect calls
heard on the speaker or with a headset. HAC requires extra battery power, so watch your battery consumption
when it's turned on.
CAUTION: Do not turn on the HAC setting unless you use a hearing aid with a telecoil. Using this setting without a
hearing aid or with a hearing aid without a telecoil may be harmful to your hearing.
