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 please 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.
Do not allow your phone 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 -10°C to +55°C.

Over 55°C the legibility of the phone’s display may be impaired, though this is
temporary and not serious.

Emergency call numbers may not be reachable on all cellular networks. You
should never rely only on your phone for emergency calls.

Do not open, dismantle or attempt to repair your mobile phone yourself.
Do not drop, throw or bend your mobile phone.
Do not paint it.
Use only batteries, battery chargers, and accessories which are recommended by

TCT Mobile Limited and its affiliates and are compatible with your phone model.
TCT Mobile Limited and its affiliates disclaim any liability for damage caused by
the use of other chargers or batteries.

Remember to make back-up copies or keep a written record of all important
information stored in 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 never had a previous seizure or blackout. If you have experienced
seizures or blackouts, or if you have a family history of such occurrences, please
consult your doctor before playing video games on your phone or enabling a
flashing-lights 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, please 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.

PRIVACY:•

Please note that you must respect the laws and regulations in force in your
jurisdiction or other jurisdiction(s) where you will use your mobile phone
regarding taking photographs and recording sounds with your mobile telephone.
Pursuant to such laws and regulations, it may be strictly forbidden to take
photographs and/or to record the voices of other people or any of their
personal attributes, and duplicate or distribute them, as this may be considered
to be an invasion of privacy. It is the user’s sole responsibility to ensure that prior
authorisation be obtained, if necessary, in order to record private or confidential
conversations or take a photograph of another person; the manufacturer, the
seller or vendor of your mobile phone (including the operator) disclaim any
liability which may result from the improper use of the mobile phone.

BATTERY:•

Before removing the battery from your phone, please 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 TCT Mobile
Limited 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 organization (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:

Maximum SAR for this model and conditions under which it was recorded.

Head SAR GSM 900 0.557 W/kg

Body-worn SAR GSM 900 0.671 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 1.5 cm.
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.

Organizations such as the World Health Organization 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.

For more information you can go to www.alcatelonetouch.com
Additional information about electromagnetic fields and public health are

available on the following site: http://www.who.int/peh-emf.
Your telephone is equipped with a built-in antenna. For optimal operation, you

should avoid touching it or degrading it.
As mobile devices offer 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 1.5 cm away from the body.
