Before using location services, such as map and navigation applications, or internet services, ensure that there is an active wireless connection to the Internet and the function of the GPS satellites in the [Application Menu]> [Settings]> [Location

and blockades].

21. Smartphone software update by OTA

From time to time, the manufacturer provides system software update, so that the devices receive new possibilities, patches, etc.

There is an application in the system [System update] . It allows you to check whether any update is available and if so, you can download it from the Internet and install on the device.

The internal memory of the device is NOT used for updating system software, so during the upgrade process you may receive the message "Downloading and installing an update requires an SD card." It means that the update file is so large that it does not fit in the standard cache memory of the device. Therefore, to

properly perform the update process, insert the SD card containing enough free space and specify it in the system as an external memory. If the card is specified as an extension of internal memory, the update will not be possible.

Remember that updates tend to have an expected size counted in hundreds of megabytes, so we recommend that you carry them out when connected via Wi-Fi. Updating via the GSM network may contribute to the operator charging for data downloaded from the internet.

Please remember that before upgrading, the battery charge level should be higher than 30%. If it is lower, plug the device to the power grid and charge the battery at least to 30%.

While updating the device might restart on its own a few times. You should not remove the battery or use any of device features, as this may cause the device to stop working.

22. Safety remarks

22.1 Troubleshooting

In case of any problems with the device we strongly advice to make a copy of an important data (contacts, SMS, photos, videos, music etc.) and restart the phone or restore default factory settings.

If the problem continues, read the following tips and follow the given suggestions in case of problems with a particular section:

• SD Memory card - check if it is properly mounted in the corresponding SD card

slot. If it does not help use another memory card of appropriate class and capacity.

• USB - check the cable, by plugging another device. Check the form of a USB

connection in smartphone settings (shortcut available in screen notifications). If it doesn't help, use another cable.

• Bluetooth - check whether the connection is active and Bluetooth visibility

options are enabled. Make sure that both devices are in Bluetooth connection range and there are no obstacles between them (interesting fact - some LCDs absorb magnetic waves). Make sure that the devices have a sufficient amount of memory to exchange files. Make sure both devices have disabled the aeroplane mode. It blocks Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and cellular networks.

• Internet/Wi-Fi - Check if the aeroplane mode is not on, because it disables using

any wireless network functions. Check network range. Check if the function is activated in the device and the parameters set correctly. Check the login password to the Wi-Fi network.

• Sounds - make sure that the sound in the phone is not muted. Check other

smartphone sound settings. Check if the plug at the end of the cable is connected correctly to the 3.5 mm minijack socket. Some minijack plugs differ from each other which also might be a reason. Try another cable or use an

adapter.

• Photos and screenshots - check if the camera lens is not somehow obscured.

Check if the device has a sufficient amount of memory on the SD card or internal memory (depending on the carrier, in which photos or screenshots are stored). Check if the SD memory card has been mounted correctly.

• Although the battery is charging, the battery charge continues to drop - turn

off all options, such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Location, and then reduce the brightness of the screen (these options consume the most power from the battery of the device), then turn Aeroplane mode on the device. Those easy steps will accelerate the charging process. It is recommended to charge the device with the charger, and not through a USB port on your computer.

If the problem persists, contact your dealer.

22.2 Protection of memory card data

• Do not take out a memory card while information are being transferred or

used by the device. This may cause data loss or damage to the card or device.

way you can protect yourself from accessing your personal information by unauthorized people.

• Downloading applications, refer to the on-screen information. Particular

caution should be exercised in the case of applications that have access to many functions or to a significant amount of personal information.

• Regularly check your account in terms of unauthorized or suspicious use. If

traces of misuse of personal information are discovered, contact your service provider to delete or change your account information.

• In the case of loss or theft of the device immediately change the passwords

Nevertheless, it is not a recommended form of charging an operating device due to the low charging current offered by the USB - even though the device is connected to a power source battery can still gets discharged. If you wish to charge your device this way turn off the device.

• If the battery level is low, recharge it to continue the use of the device. If you

wish to prolong the battery life span, discharge the battery beneath 20% of the battery capacity and charge it back to 100%.

• If not used, unplug the charger from the device. Excessive charging might

cause shortened battery life.

• The temperature of the battery has an impact on its charging cycle. Prior to

the charging process, cool the battery or raise its temperature so that it is similar to the room temperature. If the battery temperature exceeds 40ºC/104ºF it must not be charged!
