1. Safety Instructions
This user manual includes important safety information. Please read below instructions carefully. It may be dangerous or illegal if you do not follow these instructions.
Pay attention to Traffic Safety Obey local traffic laws and do not use the phone while driving. Using a cell phone while driving is dangerous and it is illegal in some areas. Radio frequency (RF) signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles such as electronic fuel injection systems, electronic antiskid (antilock) braking systems, electronic speed control systems, and air bag systems. For more information, check with the manufacturer of your vehicle for any equipment that has been added. Do not place objects, including installed or portable wireless equipment in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area.
Pacemaker Interference Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 15.3 centimeters (6 inches) be maintained between a wireless phone and a pacemaker in order to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker.
Turn Off Your Cell Phone in Medical and Health Care Facilities. Switch off your device in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Switch Off on Airplanes Using your device while flying in aircraft is prohibited. Switch off your device before boarding an aircraft. The use of wireless
devices in an aircraft may be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft, disrupt the wireless telephone network, and may be illegal.
Accessories and Batteries Use only the approved accessories and batteries. Please do not try to use with any product that was not manufactured for use with this phone. Please be sure the phone has been switched off before taking out the battery. Please dispose of scrap batteries properly according to the local regulations.
Cell Phone Should Be Turned Off Near Sites of Explosion. Potentially explosive atmospheres include areas where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. Switch off the device at refueling points such as near gas pumps at service stations and in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions. Observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots, storage, chemical plants or where blasting operations are in progress.
Using the Phone Correctly Please use this phone in its normal intended position. Do not let children use the phone without supervision. Your phone contains small parts such as SIM card, which can be accidentally swallowed by a child.
Your Phone is Not Waterproof This phone is not waterproof. Please do not expose your phone to wet weather or environment (such as rain, snow, seawater, etc.).

Cannot receive incoming calls 1. Ensure your mobile phone is switched on and
connected to a network. 2. Ensure your SIM card is correctly installed. 3. Call restrictions may be prohibiting incoming phone
calls, so these settings must be checked. 4. Poor areas of network coverage can prevent incoming
calls so check the network status of your phone.
Phone not charging 1. Bad connections can hinder the phone charging;
ensure all contacts are correctly connected. 2. Check to see whether the phone battery charging
slot or the charger itself is damaged. If so, discontinue use. Replace battery or charger. 3. The phone cannot be charged in temperatures below 10°C or above 55°C.

14. Radio Frequency (RF) Exposure and SAR
This device meets international guidelines for exposure to radio waves. Your mobile
device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) radiation recommended by international guidelines (ICNIRP). These limits are part of the comprehensive guidelines and establish the permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The exposure standard for mobile devices employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR of the device while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the device 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 base station, the lower the power output of the device. SAR values may vary depending on national reporting and testing requirements and the network band. Use of device accessories and enhancements may result in different SAR values. The SAR limit for mobile devices used by the public is 2.0 w/kg (watts per kilogram) averaged over 10 grams of body tissue. The guidelines incorporate a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements. The highest SAR Value - 1.430 W/kg.
