1 Open the micro SIM card and microSD card

access panel located on the left side of the phone.

2 Position the micro SIM card into the upper

slot (as shown on the next image) and insert it until it clicks into place.

4 Close the micro SIM card and microSD card

access panel.

NOTE

•

Turn the phone off before inserting or removing

the SIM card.

•

This device supports up to a 64GB microSD

card.

•

Some applications from Play Store store data

on the microSD card as well as on the phone. Due to this feature, if you skip the unmount procedure, it can cause an error because information between the microSD card and the phone is not accorded properly. In the worst case, the microSD card can be corrupted or damaged.

Charging your phone

1 Connect the wall adapter and USB cable as

shown below. The USB symbol on the USB cable should face toward you.

2 Plug the USB cable (as shown below) into

the phone's Charger/Accessory Port. Make sure the USB symbol is facing upwards.

Always unplug the charger from the wall socket after the phone is fully charged to save unnecessary power consumption of the charger.

NOTE

The battery must be fully charged initially to improve battery lifetime.

Getting Started

NOTE

Your phone has an internal antenna. Be careful not to scratch or damage this rear area, as that will cause loss of performance.

When the battery becomes fully discharged and you connect the phone to a charger, the LED lights for the keys at the bottom of the phone will blink. This is normal operation for a completely discharged battery to prevent overﬂ owing current because the phone is designed to provide reasonable protection against damage to the battery. Once the battery has enough charge, the screen will turn on and display a battery image.

Removing the microSD card

To safely remove the microSD card from your phone, you must first unmount it.

1 From the Home screen, tap the

Safety Guidelines

TIA Safety Information

Provided herein is the complete TIA Safety Information for Wireless Handheld phones. Inclusion of the text covering Pacemakers, Hearing Aids, and Other Medical Devices is required in the owner’s manual for CTIA Certification. Use of the remaining TIA language is encouraged when appropriate.

Exposure to Radio Frequency Signal

Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a lowpower radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.

In August, 1996, the Federal Communications Commissions (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for handheld wireless phones. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standards previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies:

ANSI C95.1 (1992) * NCRP Report 86 (1986) ICNIRP (1996)

Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic evaluations of the relevant scientific literature. For example, over 120 scientists, engineers, and physicians from universities, government health agencies, and industry reviewed the available body of research to develop the ANSI Standard (C95.1).

* American National Standards Institute;

National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements; International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection

The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines (and those standards).

Antenna Care

Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the phone and may violate FCC regulations.

Tips on Efficient Operation

For your phone to operate most efficiently: Don’t touch the antenna unnecessarily when the phone is in use. Contact with the antenna affects call quality and may cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than otherwise needed.

Safety Guidelines

Driving

Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless phones in the areas where you drive and always obey them. Also, if using your phone while driving, please observe the following:

] Give full attention to driving - driving safely

is your first responsibility;

] Use hands-free operation, if available; ] Pull off the road and park before making or

answering a call if driving conditions or the law require it.

Electronic Devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your wireless phone.

Pacemakers

The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of six (6’) inches be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.

Persons with pacemakers:

] Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than

six (6) inches from their pacemaker when the phone is turned ON;

] Should not carry the phone in a breast

pocket;

] Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker

to minimize the potential for interference;

] Should turn the phone OFF immediately

if there is any reason to suspect that interference is taking place.

Hearing Aids

Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult AT&T.

Caution: Avoid potential hearing loss.

Prolonged exposure to loud sounds (including music) is the most common cause of preventable hearing loss. Some scientific research suggests that using portable audio devices, such as portable music players and cellular telephones, at high volume settings for long durations may lead to permanent noise induced hearing loss. This includes the use of headphones (including headsets, earbuds and

Bluetooth

or other wireless devices).

Exposure to very loud sound has also been associated in some studies with tinnitus (a ringing in the ear), hypersensitivity to sound and distorted hearing. Individual susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss and other potential hearing problems varies.

The amount of sound produced by a portable audio device varies depending on the nature of the sound, the device, the device settings and the headphones. You should follow some commonsense recommendations when using any portable audio device: 204 Safety

] Set the volume in a quiet environment and

Safety Guidelines

select the lowest volume at which you can hear adequately.

] When using headphones, turn the

volume down if you cannot hear the people speaking near you or if the person sitting next to you can hear what you are listening to.

] Do not turn the volume up to block

out noisy surroundings. If you choose to listen to your portable device in a noisy environment, use noisecancelling headphones to block out background environmental noise.

] Limit the amount of time you listen. As the

volume increases, less time is required before your hearing could be affected.

] Avoid using headphones after exposure

to extremely loud noises, such as rock concerts, that might cause temporary hearing loss. Temporary hearing loss might cause unsafe volumes to sound normal.

] Do not listen at any volume that causes

you discomfort. If you experience ringing in your ears, hear muffled speech or experience any temporary hearing difficulty after listening to your portable audio device, discontinue use and consult your doctor.
