Getting Started

SIM and TF Card Installation

Insert Nano-SIM Card:

Face the chip side of the Nano-SIM card down when inserting into the slot. Be aware of the direction of the cut edge when placing the Nano-SIM card into the slot.

Reminder: Please use a standard Nano-SIM card. Do not use a non-standard card that is pre-cut, to prevent the SIM slot and card tray from being damaged and to avoid card-rejection situations.

The device supports the following configurations:

• Two Nano SIM cards (Either SIM Slot can be used if only 1 Nano SIM Card is inserted).
• One Nano SIM card and one TF (Micro-SD) card.

TF Card Installation:

Please place the metal contact of the TF card face down, be aware of the direction of the cut edge. Place the card onto the tray and insert it into the device.

Reminder: Please turn off the phone before changing or replacing the TF card. TF cards are not included with the phone and must be purchased separately. Do not insert or remove the SIM card tray when the phone is on. Be careful when using the slot thimble to avoid scratching the phone.

Dual-SIM Management

Choose which SIM card slot will be the main one for 4G network via Settings > SIM Card. Set your preferred network types (4G/3G/2G) via Settings > Network & Internet > Mobile network > Preferred network type.

Network Connection

Connecting Wi-Fi

Navigate to Settings > Network & Internet > Wi-Fi. When Wi-Fi is on, a list of available Wi-Fi connections will appear. Click on the desired network, enter the password if the network is encrypted, then click Connect. For public networks, simply click Connect. When the network shows "connected", it is available for use.

Bluetooth Function

Navigate to Settings > Connected devices > Bluetooth. Enable the Bluetooth function by clicking the Menu Button, then select "Scan". The phone will search for available Bluetooth devices for pairing and list them on the screen. Click on the desired device to pair, then click "Pair" on the dialog pop-up. Documents are available for transmission after Bluetooth pairing.

Reminder: Slide down the status bar twice to open the shortcut switches for Bluetooth and other functions.

Wi-Fi and Hot-spot Setting

Navigate to Settings > Network & Internet > Hotspot & tethering > Wi-Fi hotspot to turn on the Portable Wi-Fi Hot-spot function. When setting up the Wi-Fi hotspot, enter your desired username in "Network Name" and a password, then click Save. Another device can use the Wi-Fi hotspot by searching for the network name and entering the password.

Reminder: Please enable the Data Connection before enabling the network sharing function. Your mobile traffic will be shared by other devices, so please use it carefully. The signal strength of the Wi-Fi hotspot depends on the signal strength and the connected devices.

Camera Usage

Aim the camera at the shooting object; the phone will start to focus automatically. Alternatively, you can tap the screen to choose the object you want to focus on, then tap the "Capture" icon to take photos. You can also choose other modes such as video recording, beautifying, and panorama to take photos/videos.

Dual-Card Standby

The term "Dual card, dual standby, single pass" means you can insert two SIM cards and have them both in "standby" mode. However, you cannot make phone calls using both SIMs simultaneously. During standby mode, both cards are available for receiving phone calls. Once one of the cards is activated for a call, the other card cannot receive or make phone calls.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to 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.

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; 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.

ISEDC Warning:

Operation of 5150-5250 MHz is restricted to indoor use only. This device complies with Innovation, Science, and Economic Development Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) Information:

SAR tests are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC/ISEDC 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. Before a new model phone is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC/ISEDC that it does not exceed the exposure limit established by the FCC/ISEDC. Tests for each phone are performed in positions and locations as required by the FCC/ISEDC.

For body-worn operation, this model phone has been tested and meets the FCC/ISEDC RF exposure guidelines when used with an accessory designated for this product or when used with an accessory that contains no metal and that positions the handset a minimum of 10mm from the body. Non-compliance with the above restrictions may result in violation of RF exposure guidelines.

EU Member States: In all EU member states, operation of 5150-5250 MHz is restricted to indoor use only.
