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 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 frequency.

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 +45°C.

At over 45°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 mobile
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 use the phone if the glass made screen, is damaged,
cracked or broken to avoid any injury.

Do not paint it.

Use only batteries, battery chargers, and accessories which are
recommended by TCL Communication Ltd. and its affiliates and
are compatible with your phone model. TCL Communication Ltd.
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.
