Safety Precautions
Switch off your device in any area with potential explosive atmosphere such as
refueling stations, fuel depots, chemical plants or places where blasting
operation is in progress. Sparks arising out of radio frequency may cause fire or
explosion. Remember to comply with legal requirements and local restrictions
when using the phone.
Your Phone’s radio waves may interfere with medical devices.
Preferably maintain a distance of 15.3 cm (6 inches) between a wireless device
and implanted medical devices such as pacemaker or cardioverter defibrillator.
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 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.
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 device.
You may only open the phone to replace SIM card and memory card. 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.
Do not use the phone while driving. Please put the phone safely in the phone
stand. Do not put it onto any spot from which it may fall down during collision or
emergency braking.
17
Taking Care of your device
Your device is a product of superior design and craftsmanship and should be handled with
care in the following ways:
Keep the device dry. Precipitation, humidity, and all types of liquids can rust the
electronic circuits. If your device gets wet, wipe it with a dry cloth and take it to an
authorized service center.
Do not store the device in high or cold temperature. Extreme temperatures can
shorten the life of electronic devices and damage batteries.
Do not use or store the device in dusty, dirty areas. Its moving parts and electronic
components can get damaged.
Do not attempt to open the device other than as instructed in this guide.
Do not drop, knock, shake or bend the device. Rough handling can break internal
circuit boards and fine mechanics.
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the
device. Only use a soft, clean, dry cloth to clean the surface of the device.
Do not store or bring your device near magnetic fields for extended period of time.
Device Recommendations
We recommend you to charge the device at room temperature range.
Batteries have life cycles. After a full charge, if the power reserve of the device tends to
deplete inordinately faster than usual, the battery life is at an end.
Use only Micromax chargers and cables. Micromax will not be held responsible for
user’s safety when using incompatible accessories or supplies.
Flight is influenced by interference caused by the phone. It is not advised to
switch on a phone during flight.
Please repair the device at Micromax authorized service center only. Repairing
the device by yourself invalidates the warranty rules.
18
Temperature and Humidity
The device is designed for use within a temperature range of -20 ˚c ± 5 to 45˚c ± 5,
storage within the temperature range of -30 ˚c ± 5 to 65˚c ± 5. In case of violation of these
temperature conditions, the device can be damaged and battery life can be reduced.
The recommended humidity for maintaining the device is in the range 50 to 55%.
Do not expose your device to extreme temperatures or humidity.
Note: Micromax will not bear any responsibility for any incompliance with the above
mentioned guidelines or improper usage of the mobile phone.

charger to indicate that this product must not be disposed of or dumped
with your other household wastes. You are liable to dispose of all your
electronic or electrical waste equipment by relocating over to the specified

SAR Information
SAR Compliance
Your device 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 device is in use. SAR value is ascertained according to the highest RF level
generated during laboratory tests.
The SAR value of the device may depend on factors such as proximity to the network
tower, or use of accessories.
The SAR value of the device at the head and body are 0.84 W/kg and 1.22 W/kg
respectively averaged over 1 gm of human tissue.
SAR Recommendations
Use a wireless hands-free system (headphone, headset) with a low power Bluetooth
emitter.
Keep your calls short and use SMS whenever more convenient. This advice applies
especially to children, adolescents and pregnant women.
Prefer to use your handset when the signal quality is good.
People having active medical implants should preferably keep the handset at least
15 cm away from the implant.
Maintain a preferable distance of 15 mm from the device.
The FCC Advice
Many people mistakenly assume that using a cell phone with a lower reported SAR value
necessarily decreases a user’s exposure to RF emissions, or is somehow “safer” than using
a cell phone with a high SAR value. While SAR values are an important tool in judging the
maximum possible exposure to RF energy from a particular model of cell phone, a single
SAR value does not provide sufficient information about the amount of RF exposure under
typical usage conditions to reliably compare individual handset models.
World Health Organization (WHO) Advice
Organizations such as the World Health Organization and the US Food and Drug
Administration have stated that if people are concerned and want to reduce their exposure
they could use a hands-free device to keep the handset away from the head and body
during phone calls, or reduce the amount of time spent on the phone.
