Safety and use ..................................................
We recommend that you read this chapter carefully before using your phone. The manufacturer
disclaims any liability for damage, which may result as a consequence of improper use or use contrary
to the instructions contained herein.
• TRAFFIC SAFETY:
Given that studies show that using a mobile phone while driving a vehicle constitutes a real risk, even
when the hands-free kit is used (car kit, headset...), drivers are requested to refrain from using their
mobile when the vehicle is not parked.
When driving, do not use your phone and headphone to listen to music or to the radio. Using a
headphone can be dangerous and forbidden in some areas.
When switched on, your phone emits electromagnetic waves that can interfere with the vehicle's
electronic systems such as ABS anti-lock brakes or airbags. To ensure that there is no problem:
- do not place your phone on top of the dashboard or within an airbag deployment area,
- check with your car dealer or the car manufacturer to make sure that the dashboard is adequately
shielded from mobile phone RF energy.
• CONDITIONS OF USE:
You are advised to switch off the telephone from time to time to optimise its performance.
Switch the phone off before boarding an aircraft.
Switch the phone off when you are in health care facilities, except in designated areas. As with many
other types of equipment now in regular use, mobile telephones can interfere with other electrical or
electronic devices, or equipment using radio frequencies.
Switch the phone off when you are near gas or flammable liquids. Strictly obey all signs and instructions
posted in a fuel depot, petrol station, or chemical plant, or in any potentially explosive atmosphere.
When the phone is switched on, it should be kept at least 15 cm from any medical device such as a
pacemaker, a hearing aid or insulin pump, etc. In particular when using the phone, you should hold it
against the ear on the opposite side to the device, if any.
To avoid hearing impairment, pick up the call before holding your phone to your ear. Also move the
handset away from your ear while using the "hands-free" mode because the amplified volume might
cause hearing damage.
Do not let children use the phone and/or play with the telephone and accessories without supervision.
When replacing the cover, note that your phone may contain substances that could create an allergic
reaction.
Always handle your phone with care and keep it in a clean and dust-free place.

your phone.
Some people may suffer epileptic seizures or blackouts when exposed to flashing lights, or when
playing video games. These seizures or blackouts may occur even if a person has never had a previous
seizure or blackout. If you have experienced seizures or blackouts, or if you have a family history of such
occurrences, consult your doctor before playing video games on your phone or enabling a flashinglights feature on your phone.
Parents should monitor their children's use of video games or other features that incorporate flashing
lights on the phones. All persons should discontinue use and consult a doctor if any of the following
symptoms occur: convulsion, eye or muscle twitching, loss of awareness, involuntary movements, or
disorientation. To limit the likelihood of such symptoms, take the following safety precautions:
- Do not play or use a flashing-lights feature if you are tired or need sleep.
- Take a minimum of a 15-minute break hourly.
- Play in a room in which all lights are on.
- Play at the farthest distance possible from the screen.
- If your hands, wrists, or arms become tired or sore while playing, stop and rest for several hours
before playing again.
- If you continue to have sore hands, wrists, or arms during or after playing, stop the game and see a
doctor.
When you play games on your phone, you may experience occasional discomfort in your hands,
arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of your body. Follow the instructions to avoid problems such as
tendinitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, or other musculoskeletal disorders.

improper use of the mobile phone.
• BATTERY:
Following air regulation, the battery of your product is not charged. Please charge it first.
Before removing the battery from your phone, make sure that the phone is switched off.
Observe the following precautions for battery use:
- Do not attempt to open the battery (due to the risk of toxic fumes and burns).
- Do not puncture, disassemble or cause a short-circuit in a battery.
- Do not burn or dispose of a used battery in household rubbish or store it at temperatures above
60ºC.
Batteries must be disposed of in accordance with locally applicable environmental regulations.
Only use the battery for the purpose for which it was designed. Never use damaged batteries
or those not recommended by TCL Communication Ltd. and/or its affiliates.
This symbol on your telephone, the battery and the accessories means that these products
must be taken to collection points at the end of their life:
- Municipal waste disposal centres with specific bins for these items of equipment.
- Collection bins at points of sale.
They will then be recycled, preventing substances being disposed of in the environment,
so that their components can be reused.
In European Union countries:
These collection points are accessible free of charge.
All products with this sign must be brought to these collection points.
In non-European Union jurisdictions:
Items of equipment with this symbol are not to be thrown into ordinary bins if your jurisdiction or your
region has suitable recycling and collection facilities; instead they are to be taken to collection points
for them to be recycled.
CAUTION: RISK OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS REPLACED BY AN INCORRECT TYPE. DISPOSE OF
USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE INSTRUCTIONS.
• CHARGERS
Mains powered chargers will operate within the temperature range of: 0°C to 40°C.
The chargers designed for your mobile phone meet with the standard for safety of information
technology equipment and office equipment use. They are also compliant to the ecodesign directive
2009/125/EC. Due to different applicable electrical specifications, a charger you purchased in one
jurisdiction may not work in another jurisdiction. They should be used for this purpose only.
• RADIO WAVES:
Proof of compliance with international standards (ICNIRP) or with European Directive 1999/5/EC
(R&TTE) is required of all mobile phone models before they can be put on the market. The protection of
the health and safety for the user and any other person is an essential requirement of these standards
or this directive.
THIS DEVICE MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits for
exposure to radio waves (radio frequency electromagnetic fields) recommended by international
guidelines. The guidelines were developed by an independent scientific organisation (ICNIRP) and
include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age
and health.
The radio wave exposure guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate,
or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile devices is 2.0 W/kg.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with the device transmitting at its
highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. The highest SAR values under the ICNIRP
guidelines for this device model are:
2051X/2051D:
Maximum SAR for this model and conditions under which it was recorded.
Head SARGSM 9000.249 W/kg
Body-worn SARGSM 9000.583 W/kg
During use, the actual SAR values for this device are usually well below the values stated above. This is
because, for purposes of system efficiency and to minimize interference on the network, the operating
power of your mobile device is automatically decreased when full power is not needed for the call. The
lower the power output of the device, the lower its SAR value.
Body-worn SAR testing has been carried out at a separation distance of 5 mm. To meet RF exposure
guidelines during body-worn operation, the device should be positioned at least this distance away
from the body. If you are not using an approved accessory ensure that whatever product is used is free
of any metal and that it positions the phone the indicated distance away from the body.
Organisations such as the World Health Organisation and the US Food and Drug Administration have
stated that if people are concerned and want to reduce their exposure they could use a hands-free
device to keep the phone away from the head and body during phone calls, or reduce the amount of
time spent on the phone.
