1.3Safety
FOR YOUR SAFETY

 ROAD SAFETY COMES FIRST

Do not use a hand-held phone while driving. Use hands-free fittings when calls are
unavoidable while driving. In some countries, dialing or receiving calls while driving is
illegal!

 SWITCH OFF IN AIRCRAFT

Wireless devices can cause interference in aircraft. Using a mobile phone in flight
is illegal and risky. In order to protect the airplane’s communication system from
interference, it is forbidden to use mobile phones in flight.

 SWITCH OFF BEFORE ENTERING RISKY AREAS

Strictly observe the relevant laws, codes, and regulations on the use of mobile phones in
risky areas. Turn off your mobile phone before entering a place susceptible to explosion,
such as an oil station, oil tank, chemical plant or a place where a blasting process is
under way.

 OBSERVE ALL SPECIAL REGULATIONS

Follow any special regulations in force in any area such as hospitals and always switch
off your phone whenever it is forbidden to use it or, when it may cause interference or
danger. Properly use your mobile phone near medical apparatuses, such as

-9-

pacemakers, hearing aids and some other electronic medical devices, as it may cause
interference to such apparatuses.

 INTERFERENCE

The conversation quality of any mobile phone may be affected by radio interference. An
antenna is built inside the mobile phone and located below the microphone. Do not
touch the antenna area during a conversation, lest that the conversation quality
deteriorate.

 QUALIFIED SERVICE

Only qualified personnel may install or repair phone equipment. Installing or repairing

the call until told to do so.

Note: Just like all other mobile phones, this mobile phone does not necessarily
support all the features described in this manual due to network or radio transmission
problems. Some networks even do not support the emergency call service. Therefore,
do not rely solely on the mobile phone for critical communications such as first aid.
Please consult the local network operator.

Precautions

-10-

This mobile phone is well designed with fine art. Please exercise special care when
using it. The following suggestions will help your mobile phone survive the warranty
period and extend its service life:

inside the mobile phone to damage electronic circuits when the mobile phone is moved
to a constant temperature place.

 Do not throw, knock or shock the mobile phone, as that will destroy the internal

circuits and high-precision components of the mobile phone.

you have set an alert tone, an alert tone will be given off when the battery level is too
low.

 A charging animation appears when the battery is being charged. When the charging

is complete, the animation disappears.

Use of the travel charger:

 Install the battery into the mobile phone before charging the battery.
 Connect the adapter of the travel charger with the charging slot in the mobile phone.

Ensure that the adapter is fully inserted.

 Insert the plug of the travel charger to an appropriate power outlet.

Note:

Ensure that the plug of the charger, the plug of the earpiece, and the plug of the
USB cable are inserted in the right direction. Inserting them in a wrong direction may
cause charging failure or other problems.

Before the charging, ensure that the standard voltage and frequency of the local

mains supply match the rated voltage and power of the travel charger.

Using the Battery

The performance of a battery is subject to multiple factors: radio network
configuration, signal strength, ambient temperature, chosen functions or settings, phone
fittings, and the voice, data or other application mode you choose to use.
To guarantee the optimal performance of your battery, please stick to the following rules:

 Use only the battery provided by the vendor. Otherwise, damages or even injuries

could be caused during the charging.

 Power off the mobile phone before removing the battery.
 The charging process lasts a longer time for a new battery or a battery not in use for

long. If the battery voltage is too low to enable the mobile phone to be powered on,
charge the battery for a longer time. In this case, the battery icon does not flicker until a
long time after the battery enters the charge status.

 During the charging, ensure the battery is placed in a room temperature environment

or in an environment close to room temperature.

 Immediately stop using the battery if the battery produces odor, overheats, cracks,

-18-

distorts or has other damage, or if the electrolyte leaks.

 The battery wears out with use. A longer charging time is required as the battery is

put into use for a long time. If the total conversation duration decreases but the charging
time increases even though the battery is properly charged, purchase a standard battery
from the OEM or use a battery approved by our company. Using any poor-quality fittings
will cause harm to your mobile phone or even incur danger!

Note: To guarantee your personal safety and protect the environment, do not litter
the battery! Return the old battery to the mobile phone manufacturer or place it in
