3. Preparation before Use

3.1 Installing the SIM Card

When registering the mobile phone number, you can apply for two different phone numbers, two different mobile phone network service providers and thus obtain two SIM (Subscriber Identification Module) cards.

With these two SIM cards, you can use all functions of your mobile phone. The SIM cards save the parameters needed for communications and personal data, including PIN (Personal Identification Number) code, phonebook, short

message and other extra system services. Warning: Do not distort or scratch the SIM card

nor let it come in contact with dust or moisture. If it is lost, please immediately contact your network operator for help.

Before SIM card installation, please switch off the mobile phone. The SIM card is installed on the back of the mobile phone.

Follow the following diagram to install the SIM card. Please insert the host SIM card into the SIM1 slot and the slave SIM card into the SIM2 slot.

Note: If SIM card is inserted only into the SIM1 slot, then only the host works; similarly, If SIM card is inserted only into the SIM2 slot, then only the slave works. When two SIM cards are inserted into the SIM1 slot and SIM2 slot respectively, you can choose work mode freely as

you wish. Note: As the SIM card is a small object, keep it

out of children’s touch.

SIM1

3.2 Installing the Memory card revamp

Installing the T-FLASH card: Open the back cover to take out the battery, release the T-Flash card lock, insert the T-Flash card into its slot, and restore the lock and the battery before restarting the mobile phone.

Memory card

Note: As the T-FLASH card is a small object, keep it out of children’s touch.

3.3 Installing the Battery

3.4 Charging the Battery

The new battery cannot reach the optimal efficiency level unless it has undergone several continuous complete charges and discharges.

When the battery is used up, charge it in time. Over-discharge can damage the battery. After the battery is charged fully, cut off the

connection of the charger with the AC power supply and the connection with the mobile phone.

Follow the following diagram to connect the charger.

Earphone

During charging, the battery capacity icon on the screen flickers from the right to the left. After the battery is charged fully, the icon is full of bars. Slight heat during charging is normal.

Warning: When a travel charger and its accessories are used to charge the battery, please firstly check if they are original or recognized by the original manufacturer. The use of other accessories may damage your mobile phone and cause risks! Always use them indoor and near dry places.

3.5 Notice on using the battery

The performance of the battery is affected by many factors, including radio barrier network settings, signal strength, work temperature, chosen and used functions or settings as well as phone accessories, tone, data or other applications.

For optimal performances, please follow the rules below:

 New battery or the battery having been idle

for long need charging for long. The standard voltage scope for the battery is

3.6V-4.2V.

 During charging, keep the battery at room

temperature or similar temperature.

 With time passing by, the battery will

gradually be worn and thus needs a longer time to charge. This is normal. However, after normal charging, if call duration decreases but charging time increases, you need to buy another battery from the original manufacturer or authorized by the original manufacturer. The battery of interior quality can damage your mobile phone and cause danger!

 If the phone is overused at low battery

when charging, it may take the charge indicator a longer time to show up on the screen.

Note: Please dispose the battery according to the local regulations. Try to recycle the battery as possible. Do not treat the waste battery as common waste.

Warning: Do not throw the battery into fire so as

to prevent an explosion.

Warning: Charging the mobile phone by improper means can cause an explosion. Always refer to the related regulations for the disposal of the battery

3.6 PIN code

PIN1 Code: It is the personal identification number used to enter SIM and able to prevent others using SIM1 without permission. If the mobile phone has activated the PIN1 code protection, when the mobile phone is switched

on, the screen will display “Input PIN”. In the

process of inputting PIN1 code, the screen will use ‘*’ to represent the input content. While obtaining SIM, you can obtain its PIN1 code.

PIN2 Code: It is the personal identification number used for some special functions such as paid call etc.

PUK Code and PUK2 Code(8-digit) To change the locked PIN code, you need to use

PUK (Personal Unblocking Key) code. To change the locked PIN2 code, you need to use PUK2 code. If these two codes are not provided together with the SIM cards, ask the local service provider for

them. Warning: If the PIN code is input wrongly for

successively three times, the SIM card will be locked. Please contact the network operator immediately for help. Attempt to unlock the code may make the SIM card ineffective forever!
