3.1 SIM and Battery
SIM card stores some personal information. You can lock and unlock each SIM card that you use in your
phone with a PIN (Personal Identity Number). When a SIM card is locked, the subscription linked to the card
is protected against misuse, meaning that you have to enter a PIN every time you start your device.
If you enter the PIN incorrectly more times than the maximum number of attempts allowed, your SIM card
will become blocked. You then need to enter your PUK (Personal Unblocking Key) and a new PIN. Your PIN
and PUK are supplied by your network operator.
Note：
· Remove the SIM card after several seconds after phone power off.
· SIM card is fragile, please handle it carefully.
-12-
· Keep SIM card and all other small parts out of the reach of small children.

7 FCC Regulations:
This mobile phone complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This mobile phone has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant
to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiated radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by
-31-
one or more of the following measures:
-Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
-Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
-Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
-Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
FCC Note:
Caution: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could
void the user‘s authority to operate the equipment.
8 RF Exposure Information (SAR)
This phone is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency
(RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the United States.
During SAR testing, this device was set to transmit at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency
bands, and placed in positions that simulate RF exposure in usage against the head with no separation, and
near the body with the separation of 10 mm. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power
level, the actual SAR level of the device while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is
because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to
reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power
-32-
output.
The exposure standard for wireless devices employing a unit of measurement is known as the Specific
Absorption Rate, or SAR.
The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.
This device is complied with SAR for general population /uncontrolled exposure limits in ANSI/IEEE
C95.1-1992 and had been tested in accordance with the measurement methods and procedures specified in
IEEE1528. This device has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines when tested with the
device directly contacted to the body.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels
evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is
on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after
searching on FCC ID: 2ACUZH450R.
For this device, the highest reported SAR value for usage against the head is 0.78 W/kg, for usage near the
body is 1.12 W/kg.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all
meet the government requirements.
-33-
SAR compliance for body-worn operation is based on a separation distance of 10 mm between the unit and
the human body. Carry this device at least 10 mm away from your body to ensure RF exposure level
compliant or lower to the reported level. To support body-worn operation, choose the belt clips or
holsters, which do not contain metallic components, to maintain a separation of 10 mm between this
device and your body.
RF exposure compliance with any body-worn accessory, which contains metal, was not tested and certified,
and use such body-worn accessory should be avoided.
9 Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC)
regulations for Mobile phones
In 2003, the FCC adopted rules to make digital wireless telephones compatible with hearing aids and
cochlear implants. Although analog wireless phones do not usually cause interference with hearing aids or
cochlear implants, digital wireless phones sometimes do because of electromagnetic energy emitted by the
phone's antenna, backlight, or other components. Your phone is compliant with FCC HAC regulations (ANSI
C63.19- 2011). While some wireless phones are used near some hearing devices (hearing aids and cochlear
implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices are more immune
than others to this interference noise and phones also vary in the amount of interference they generate. The
wireless telephone industry has developed a rating system for wireless phones to assist hearing device users
-34-
in finding phones that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phones have been rated. Phones
that are rated have the rating on their box or a label located on the box. The ratings are not guarantees.
Results will vary depending on the user's hearing device and hearing loss. If your hearing device happens to
be vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to use a rated phone successfully. Trying out the phone
with your hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal needs.
This phone has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids for some of the wireless technologies that it
uses. However, there may be some newer wireless technologies used in this phone that have not been tested
yet for use with hearing aids. It is important to try the different features of this phone thoroughly and in
different locations, using your hearing aid or cochlear implant, to determine if you hear any interfering noise.
Consult your service provider or the manufacturer of this phone for information on hearing aid compatibility.
If you have questions about return or exchange policies, consult your service provider or phone retailer.
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to generate less interference to
hearing devices than phones that are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.
T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to be more usable with a hearing
device’s telecoil (“T Switch” or “Telephone Switch”) than unrated phones. T4 is the better/ higher of the two
ratings. (Note that not all hearing devices have telecoils in them.)
Your phone meets the M3/T3 level rating.
Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing health professional may
