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 i
nformation te chnology e quipment and office equipm ent use. Due to different applicable electrical specifications, a charger you purchased in one jurisdiction may n
ot work in another jurisdiction.They should be used for this purpose only.
RADIO WAVES:
Proof of compliance with internationalstandards (ICNIRP) or with European Directive 1999/5/EC (R&TTE) is required of allmobile phonemodels before they can be put on the market.The protection of the health and safety for theuser andany other person is an essential requirement of these standards or this directive. THIS MOBILE PHONE COMPLIES WITH INTERNATIONAL AND EUROPEAN REQUIREMENTS REGARDING EXPOSURE TO RADIOWAVES. Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter/receiver.It was designed and manufactured to comply with the radiofrequency (RF) expo sure thresholds recommended by international requirements (ICNIRP)
(
1)
and by the Council of the European Union
(Recommendation 1999/519/EC)
(
2)
. These limits are part of a set of requirements and establish authorised radiofrequency levels for the public.These limits were established by independent groups of experts on the basis of regular and detailed scientific assessments.They include a significant safety margin intended to ensure the safety of all,regardless of age or state of health. The exposure standardfor mobile phones is determined by a measurement unit known as the Specific Absorption Rate or SAR. The SAR limit is set by international requirements or by the Council of the European Union at 2 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over 10 grams of body tissue.The tests used to determine SAR levels were carried out on the basis of standard usage modes with the phones transmitting at their maximum power level over the entire range of frequency bands. Although the SAR was established at the highest certified level, the actual SAR level for the mobile phone during use is generally much lower than the maximum values. In fact, since mobile phones are designed to operate at many different power levels, they only use the minimum level of power required to provide a connection to the network.In theory, the closer you are to a base station antenna,the lower thepower level required by the mobile phone.
My mobile phone has a low level of autonomy
Make sure you respected the complete charge timing (minimum 3
hours)
After a partial charge, the battery level indicator may not be exact.
Wait for at least 20 minutes after removing the charger to obtain an exact indication

Make sure that your battery is not completely discharged; the battery
charge indicator can take several minutes and may be accompanied by a quiet whistling sound
Make sure charging is carried out under normal conditions (0°C-
+40°C)
Make sure your batter y is inserted. It must be inserted before
plugging in the charger
Make sure you are using an Alcatel battery and charger
When abroad, check that the electrical current is compatible
My mobile phone will not connect to a network
Try connecting in another location
Verify the network coverage with your operator
Check with your operator that your SIM card is valid
Try selecting the available network(s) manually
Try connecting at a later time if the network is overloaded
SIM card error

T
he highest tested SAR valuefor this mobile phonefor useat theear andcompliance against the standard is 1.26W/kg (OT-203e),1.26 W/kg (OT-206),1.25W/kg (OT-106). While there may be differences between the SAR levels on various phones and at v
arious positi ons, they all me et t he releva nt I nternational g uidelines and EU requirements for RF (radio-waves) exposure. T
heWorld Health Organisation(WHO) considersthat present scientific information does not indicate the need for any special precautions for use of mobile phones. If individuals are concerned, they might choose tolimit their own or their children’s RF exposure by limiting the length of calls,or using hands-freedevices to keep mobile phones away from the head and body (fact sheet n° 193).Additional information about electromagnetic fields and public he alth are available on th e followi ng site : http://www.who.int/peh-emf. Although no danger relating to the use of telephone was ever proved, the World Health Organisation advises as a precautionary measure to use your telephone with a good level of network reception as indicated on the telephone display (4 to5 bars). It is also advised to keep the telephone, during communications,away from the belly of pregnant women and from the lower abdomen for teenagers. Your telephone is equipped with abuilt-in antenna.For optimal operation,you should avoid touching it or degrading it. As mobile devicesoffer a range of functions,they can be used in positions other than against your ear.In such circumstances the device will be compliant with the guidelines when used with headset or usb data cable. If you are using another accessory ensure that whatever product is used is free of any metal and that it positions the phone at least 2cm away from the body.
