Using this Guide

This guide has been specially designed to guide you through the basics of your device, such as getting started with the device.
Please read this guide carefully before using your device to ensure safe and correct use.

The descriptions in this guide are based on the default settings of your device.

Please keep this guide for future reference.

Installing the SIM card and Storage card

You need to remove the back cover on the side of the device before you can install the SIM card and storage card. Also, make
sure to always turn off the power before installing or replacing the SIM card and storage card.

To remove the back cover

1. Make sure your device is turned off.

2. Firmly hold the device with both hands and the front panel facing down.

3. Pull cover from the corner at bottom until it disengages from the device and then pull it up to remove.

To install the SIM card

The SIM card contains your phone number, service details, and phonebook/ message memory. Your device supports both 3G
and 2G SIM cards.

1. Remove the side panel on the back side.

2. Locate the SIM card slot, and then insert the SIM card with its gold contacts facing down and its cut-off corner facing out the

card slot.

3. Push the SIM card completely into the slot.

Note:

• The phone supports dual SIM cards, SIM slot 1 & SIM slot 2 both supports 3G networks.

• Some legacy SIM cards may not function with your device. You should consult with your service provider for a replacement of

SIM card. There may be some fees for this service.

To install the memory card

6

To have additional storage for your images, videos, music, and files, you can purchase a memory card and install it into your
device.

1. Make sure that your device is turned off, and then remove the back cover.

2. Locate the memory card slot on the upper part of the exposed right panel.

3. Insert the memory card into the slot with its gold contacts facing down until it clicks into place.

Note: To remove the memory card, pull it to eject it from the slot.

Which class of SD card is supported on my device?

The word class is another term for speed. Different type of flash memory is used for different SD cards. This suggests that the
read/write speed of the SD card differs in different classes.

Class 2 SD card2 MB/sSD card recording

Class 4 SD card 4 MB/sHD recording including full HD (from 720p to 1080p/1080i)

Class 6 SD card  6 MB/s HD recording including full HD (from 720p to 1080p/1080i)

Class 10 SD card 10 MB/sFull HD (1080p) video recording and consecutive recording of HD stills

For HD video recording a SD card of class 6 or higher is suggested because of the constant stream of data that needs to be

written. If you will use a class 2 SD card for HD video recording, the video will sufferer dropouts and you will get a corrupted
video.

Charging the Battery

New batteries are shipped partially charged. Before you start using your device, it is recommended that you charge the battery.
Some batteries perform best after several full charge/discharge cycles.

The battery can be charged and discharged many times, but it will eventually wear out. When the talk and standby times are

noticeably shorter than normal, get the battery replaced. Use only iBall approved batteries, and recharge your battery only with

iBall approved chargers designated for this device. If a battery is being used for the first time or if the battery has not been used

for a prolonged period, it may be necessary to connect the charger, then disconnect and reconnect it to begin charging the

battery. If the battery is completely discharged, it may take several minutes before the charging indicator appears on the display
or before any calls can be made.

Note: Only the AC adapter provided with your device must be used to charge the device.

Connect the USB connector of the AC adapter to the sync connector on your device, and then plug in the AC adapter to an
electrical outlet to start charging the battery.

As the battery is being charged while the device is on, a charging icon appears in the title bar of the Home screen. After the
battery has been fully charged, a full battery icon appears on the title bar of the Home screen.

 Close applications and data connections, for example, your Bluetooth connection, when not in use.

7

 Deactivate unnecessary sounds, such as touch screen and key tones.

SAR

This device is SAR accredited adheres to international quality benchmarks and safety measures concerning the harmful impact

of radiations. It complies with applicable safety requirements for exposure to radio waves. The radio waves exposure guidelines

employ a unit of measurement called Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). SAR is a measure of the rate at which energy is

absorbed by the body when exposed to a radio frequency (RF). SAR is usually averaged either over the whole body, or over a

small sample volume (typically 1g or 10g of tissue). The recommended SAR limit for a mobile handset/similar device is 1.6
W/Kg averaged over a volume containing a mass 1g of human tissue.

SAR Value

• Your Slide is designed not to exceed the limits of emission of radio waves recommended by international guidelines.

• SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) is the measurement of body-absorbed RF quantity when the phone is in use. SAR value is

ascertained according to the highest RF level generated during laboratory tests.

• The SAR value of the phone may depend on factors such as proximity to the network tower, use of accessories.

SAR Recommendations

• Use a wireless hands free system (headphone, headset) with lower Bluetooth emitter.

• Make sure the device has a low SAR.

• Please keep your calls short and use SMS whenever more convenient. This advice applies especially to children and

pregnant women.

• Prefer to use your Slide when the signal quality is good.

SAR Value

Tested SAR Value of 3G 7271 HD70 is as follows:

2G) GSM900MHz: 1.201 W/Kg (1g)

(2G) GSM1800MHz: 0.991 W/Kg (1g)

(3G) GSM2100MHz: 0.825 W/Kg (1g)

Maximum Permitted SAR value is: 1.6 W/Kg (1g)
