Safety Precautions

Therefore switch off your device at refueling stations, fuel depots, chemical plants or places where blasting operation is in progress. Remember to comply with legal requirements and local restrictions when using the phone.

Your Phone’s radio waves may interfere with inadequately shielded medical devices. Consult a physician or manufacturer of the medical device to know whether they are adequately shielded from external Radio Frequency. Switch off your device when regulations require you to do so.

Always keep the phone and accessories out of reach of small children. Small parts such as the SIM card or microSD card can be dismantled and swallowed by small children.

Do not place the phone near electromagnetic data carriers such as credit/Debit cards. Information stored on them could be lost.

Permanent damage to hearing may occur if you use earphones at high volume for prolonged periods. Set your volume to a safe level. If you experience discomfort in your ears, reduce the volume or discontinue the use of your earphones.

Manufacturers of medical devices recommend a minimum distance of 15.3 cm (6 inches) between a wireless device and an implanted medical device such as pacemaker or cardiverter defibrillator to avoid issues arising out of radio frequency interference.

The mains voltage (V) specified on the power supply unit must not be exceeded to prevent damage to the charging device. The power supply must be plugged into an easily accessible AC power socket when charging the battery.

You may only open the phone to replace the battery (if not inbuilt), SIM card and micro SD card. You must not open the battery under any circumstances. All other changes to this device are strictly prohibited and will invalidate the warranty.

The phone may cause interference in the vicinity of TV sets, radios and PCs.

Only use Micromax specified batteries and charging devices. The battery may cause damage, injury or burns if a conductive material closes the circuit of the terminals. Exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when placing it inside your pocket, purse or other container with metal objects. Do not dispose of batteries in fire as they may explode.

Do not use the phone while driving. When you have to use the phone, please use the earpiece. Please put the phone safely in the phone stand. Do not put it onto any passenger seat or any place from which it may fall down during collision or emergency braking.

Flight is influenced by interference caused by the phone. It is illegal to use a phone on the airplane. Please turn off your phone during a flight.
