Safety information
We recommend that you read this chapter carefully before using your device. The manufacturer disclaims any liability for damage, which may result as a consequence of improper use or use contrary to the instructions contained here.
• TRAFFIC SAFETY
Given that studies show that using a device 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 device when the vehicle is not parked.
When driving, do not use your device or headphone to listen to music. Using a headphone can be dangerous and forbidden in some areas. When switched on, your device 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 device 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 device RF energy.
• CONDITIONS OF USE
You are advised to switch off the device from time to time to optimize its performance.
Switch the device off before boarding an aircraft.
Switch the device off when you are in healthcare facilities, except in designated areas. As with many other types of equipment now in regular use, these devices can interfere with other electrical or electronic devices, or equipment using radio frequencies.
Switch the device 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 device 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,
5
etc. In particular when using the device, you should hold it against the ear on the opposite side to the device, if any.
To avoid hearing impairment, move the device away from your ear while using the “hands-free” mode because the amplified volume might cause hearing damage.
Do not let children use the device and/or play with the device and accessories without supervision.
Please note that your device is a unibody device, the back cover and battery are not removable. Do not attempt to disassemble your device. If you disassemble your device the warranty will not apply. Also, disassembling the device may damage the battery, and may cause leakage of substances that could create an allergic reaction.
Always handle your device with care and keep it in a clean and dust­free place.
Do not allow your device to be exposed to adverse weather or environmental conditions (moisture, humidity, rain, infiltration of liquids, dust, sea air, etc.). The manufacturer’s recommended operating temperature range is 0°C to +45°C.
At over 45°C the legibility of the device’s display may be impaired, though this is temporary and not serious.
Do not open, dismantle or attempt to repair your device yourself.
Do not drop, throw or bend your device.
Do not use the device if the glass made screen is damaged, cracked or broken to avoid any injury.
Do not paint it.
Use only battery chargers and accessories which are recommended by TCL Communication Ltd. and its affiliates and are compatible with your device model. TCL Communication Ltd. and its affiliates disclaim any liability for damage caused by the use of other chargers or accessories.
Remember to make back-up copies or keep a written record of all important information stored in your device.

- 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 device, 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.

• Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Declaration
of Conformity
This dev ice complies w ith part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two condit ions: (1) This device may n ot cause harmf ul inte rference, and (2) this device must accept any inter ference received, inc ludin g inter fere nce that may cau se unde sired operation.
Changes or modific ations not expressly approved by the part y responsible for compliance could void the user‘s aut hority to operate the equipment.
This dev ice has been te sted and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital , pursuant to Par t 15 of the FCC Rules . These limits a re designed to p rovide reason able protec tion agains t harmf ul inte rference in a residential installation. This equipment gener ates, uses and can radiate d radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may c ause harmf ul inte rference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee t hat interference will not occur in a p articular installation If this eq uipment doe s cause h armful interference to r adio or television reception, w hich can be det ermined by tur ning the equipment o ff and on, the user is encour aged to t ry to correct the interference by one or more of t he foll owing measures:
- Reorient or re locate the receiving ante nna.
- Increase the sepa ration between the equipment a nd receiver.
- Connect the equip ment into an outlet on a circuit different from
that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an exper ienced radio/T V technician for help.
FCC Caution:
Changes or modific ations not expressly approved by the part y responsible for compliance could void the user‘s aut hority to operate the equipment.
FCC RF Exposu re Informat ion (SA R):
10
This dev ice is de signed and manufac tured not to exce ed the emission limit s for exposure to radio freque ncy (RF) ene rgy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the United States.
During SAR testing , this is set to tr ansmit at its highest certified power level in all tested freque ncy bands, and placed in positions that simulate RF ex posure in usage near t he body with the separation of 0 mm. Al though the SA R is determin ed at the highest certified power level, t he actual SAR level of the device while o perating ca n be well below the max imum value. T his is because the device is designed to operate at mul tiple power leve ls so as to use only the powe r required to reach the network . In gen eral , the closer you are to a wire less base st ation antenna, t he lower t he power outpu t.
The exp osure standard for wi reles s devices empl oys a unit of measurement known as the S pecific Absorpt ion Rat e, or SA R. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/ kg.
Tests for SA R are conducte d using stand ard operating positions accept ed by the F CC with the device tra nsmitting at its highest certifie d power level in all t ested frequency bands.
The FCC has granted an E quipment Authori zation for this model device with all repor ted SA R levels evaluated as i n compliance w ith the FCC R F exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model device is on file with t he FCC and can be fo und under the Display Grant section of HYPERL INK “http: //ww w.fcc. gov/oet /ea/fccid” www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after searching on FCC ID: 2ACCJ B024.
For thi s device , the highest repor ted SAR value for usa ge near the body is:
Maximum SAR for this model and conditions under which it was
8080 (Body worn)
SAR com pliance for body operation is base d on a separation distance of 0 cm bet ween t he device and the human body. During use, the actual SAR values for this device are u sually well below the values stated above . This is b ecause, for purposes of system ef ficiency and to minimize int erference o n the network, the operat ing powe r of
recorded:
1.179 W/kg
11
your device is aut omatically decre ased when full power is not needed. The lower the powe r output of the device , the lower its SAR value.
Body-worn SA R testing has been carried out at a separation distance of 0 cm. To meet RF exposure guide lines during b ody-worn operation, the device should be pos itioned at least this dist ance away from the body.
If you are n ot using an approved accessory ensure that whatever produc t is used is free of any metal and th at it positions the device the indicate d dist ance away from the body.
Organizations such as the World Health Or ganizatio n and the US Food and Drug Administration have su ggested that if people are concerned and want to reduce t heir ex posure they could use a hands­free accessor y to keep the wireless device aw ay from th e head or body during use, or red uce the a mount of time spent on t he device
