Installing the nano-SIM / microSDHC
Card
Your phone has two nano-SIM card slots. You can install one
nano-SIM card and one microSDHC card or both nano-SIM cards
into the slots. Power off your phone before installing or removing
the nano-SIM or microSDHC card.
WARNING!
To avoid damage to the phone, do not use any other kind of SIM
cards, or any non-standard nano-SIM card cut from a SIM card.
You can get a standard nano-SIM card from your service
provider.
NOTE:
Your phone is designed for simultaneous use of two nano-SIM
cards in standby mode. However, the nano-SIM cards cannot be
used simultaneously for calls or the Internet. If one nano-SIM
card is used in a voice call, the other nano-SIM card is not
available.
This situation is caused by the function of the phone and is
independent of the network. Such design can significantly reduce
the power consumption of the phone in standby mode.
14
1. Insert the tip of the tray eject tool into the hole on the
nano-SIM / microSDHC card tray.
2. Pull out the nano-SIM card tray or microSDHC card tray and
place the nano-SIM card or microSDHC card on the tray, as
shown. Then carefully install the tray back.
NOTE:
The two nano-SIM card slots support 4G/3G/2G nano-SIM
cards. When one nano-SIM card is set to connect with 4G/3G
networks, the other installed nano-SIM card can only connect
with 2G networks.
15
Charging the Battery
Your phone’s battery should have enough power for the phone to
turn on, find a signal, and make a few calls. You should fully
charge the battery as soon as possible.
If the battery is low, there will be a pop-up message on the
screen. As you charge your phone, the screen will show you the
exact battery level on the status bar.
WARNING!

unapproved accessories could damage your phone or cause the
battery to explode.
CAUTION:
Do not change the built-in rechargeable battery in your phone by

NOTE:
Remember the pattern, PIN or password you set. Otherwise, you

Upgrading the Phone Software on page 153.
Protecting Your Phone With Encryption
You can encrypt all the data on your phone: your accounts,
application data, music and other media, downloaded information,
and so on. If you do, you must draw an unlock pattern, or enter a
numeric PIN or a password each time you power on your phone.
WARNING!
Encryption is irreversible. The only way to revert to an
unencrypted phone is to perform a factory data reset, which
erases all your data.
Encryption provides additional protection in case your phone is
stolen, and may be required or recommended in some
organizations. Consult your system administrator before turning it
on. In many cases the pattern, PIN or password you set for
encryption is controlled by the system administrator.
Before turning on encryption, prepare as follows:
●
Set a lock screen pattern, PIN or password.
32
●
Charge the battery.
●
Keep the phone connected to the charger.
●
Schedule an hour or more for the encryption process: you
must not interrupt it or you will lose some or all of your data.
When you're ready to turn on encryption:
1. Touch the Home key, slide screen to touch Settings >
Security > Encrypt phone.
2. Read the information about encryption carefully.
The ENCRYPT PHONE button is dimmed if your battery is
not charged or your phone's not plugged in.
If you change your mind about encrypting your phone, touch
the Back key.
WARNING!
If you interrupt the encryption process, you will lose data.
3. Touch ENCRYPT PHONE.
4. Draw your lock screen pattern or enter your PIN or password,
and touch NEXT.
5. Touch ENCRYPT PHONE again.
The encryption process starts. Encryption can take an hour or
more, during which time your phone may restart several times.
When encryption is completed, you're prompted to draw the
unlock pattern, or enter the PIN or password.
Subsequently, you must draw the unlock pattern, enter the PIN or
password each time you power on your phone in order to decrypt
it.

Radio Frequency Interference
General Statement on Interference
Care must be taken when using your phone in close proximity to
personal medical devices, such as pacemakers and hearing aids.
Please consult your doctor and the device manufacturers to
determine if the operation of your phone may interfere with the
operation of your medical devices.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum
separation of 15 cm be maintained between a mobile phone and
a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker.
To achieve this, use the phone on the opposite ear to your
pacemaker and do not carry it in a breast pocket.
Hearing Aids
People with hearing aids or other cochlear implants may
experience interfering noises when using wireless devices or
when one is nearby.
The level of interference depends on the type of the hearing
device and the distance from the interference source. Increasing
the separation between them may reduce the interference. You
166
may also consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss
alternatives.
Medical Equipment
Switch off your wireless device when you are requested to do
so in hospitals, clinics or health care facilities. These requests
are designed to prevent possible interference with sensitive
medical equipment.
Aircraft
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 and enable airplane mode of your phone when
boarding an aircraft.
Interference in Vehicles
Please note that because of possible interference to
electronic equipment, some vehicle manufacturers forbid the
use of mobile phones in their vehicles unless a hands-free kit
with an external antenna is included in the installation.
Explosive Environments
Gas Stations and Explosive Atmosphere
In locations with potentially explosive atmosphere, obey all
167
posted signs to turn off wireless devices such as your phone or
other radio equipment.
Areas with potentially explosive atmosphere include fueling areas,
below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage
facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles,
such as grain, dust, or metal powders.
Blasting Caps and Areas
Power off your mobile phone or wireless device when in a
blasting area or in areas where signs are posted to power off
“two-way radios” or “electronic devices” to avoid interfering with
blasting operations.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) information:
This wireless phone meets the government's requirements for
exposure to radio waves. The guidelines are based on standards
that were developed by independent scientific organizations
through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies.
169
The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to
assure the safety of all persons regardless of age or health.
FCC RF Exposure Information and Statement. The SAR limit of
USA (FCC) is 1.6 W/kg averaged over one gram of tissue. The
Device (FCC ID: SRQ-ZTEV6PLUS) has also been tested
against this SAR limit. The highest SAR value reported under this
standard during product certification for use at the ear is
0.542W/kg and when properly worn on the body is 0.995W/kg.
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the
back of the handset kept1.0cm from the body. To maintain
compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, use
accessories that maintain a 1.0cm separation distance between
the user's body and the back of the handset. The use of belt clips,
holsters and similar accessories should not contain metallic
components in its assembly. The use of accessories that do not
satisfy these requirements may not comply with FCC RF
exposure requirements, and should be avoided.
Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations. To
comply with RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation
distance of 1.0 cm must be maintained between the user’s body
and the handset, including the antenna. Third-party belt-clips,
holsters, and similar accessories used by this device should not
contain any metallic components. Body-worn accessories that do
not meet these requirements may not comply with RF exposure
requirements and should be avoided. Use only the supplied or an
approved antenna.
