Remember to comply with legal requirements and local restrictions when using the phone, for example, in airplanes, petrol stations, hospitals or while driving.
Mobile phones can interfere with the functioning of medical devices such as hearing aids or pacemakers. For more information,
consult your doctor.
Always keep the phone and accessories out of reach of small children. Small parts such as the SIM card, dust cap, lens ring and lens cap as well as the microSD card can be dismantled and swallowed by small
children.
Do not place the phone near to electromagnetic data carriers such as credit cards and floppy disks. Information stored on them could be lost.
Do not look directly into the LED (such as flash LED) with optical magnifiers because of harmful radiations. This product complies with IEC/EN 60825-1 “Safety of Laser Products” for LED Class 1M products; such products are safe under
reasonably foreseeable operating conditions.
Permanent hearing loss may occur if you use earphones or headphones at high volume. You can adapt over time to a higher volume, which may sound normal but can be damaging to your hearing. Set your volume to a safe level. If you experience discomfort or buzzing in your ears, reduce the volume or discontinue use of your earphones or headphones.
Ring tones, info tones and hands-free talking are reproduced through the loudspeaker. Do not hold the phone to the ear when it rings or when you have switched on the hands-free function.
The mains voltage (V) specified on the power supply unit must not be exceeded. Otherwise the charging device may be damaged. The power supply must be plugged into an easily accessible AC mains power socket when charging the battery. The only way to
turn off the charging device after charging the battery is to unplug it.
You may only open the phone to replace the battery, SIM and microSD 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.
Dispose of unwanted batteries and phones as permitted by the laws in your country.
Only use Micromax specified batteries and charging devices. All batteries can cause property damage, injury or burns if a conductive material such as jewelry, keys or beaded chains touch exposed
terminals. Exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when placing it inside your pocket, purse or other container with

3. Getting Started
What is a SIM card
When registering your mobile phone number, you will have a SIM card (Subscriber Identity Module) provided by the network operator. The SIM card has information reserved for your use. It includes your phone number, PIN (Personal Identification Number), PIN2, PUK (password to
unlock PIN), PUK2 (password to unlock PIN2), IMSI (International Mobile Subscriber Identity) number, network information, phone book data, SMS data and so on.
PIN code
PIN is the password provided by your network operator. It is usually 4 digits. When you input the PIN code, the screen displays “*” to replace the number entered.
PIN is used to access the SIM card. If the PIN protection function is enabled, the screen will display “Enter PIN” each time the phone is switched on. You can deactivate this feature but you risk unauthorized use of the phone. Some network operators do not permit deactivating the control.
PIN2 code
PIN2 is required for some specific functions provided by the network, such as the charge information. Note: If you enter the PIN incorrectly three times in a row, the SIM card will be locked. Please contact your network operator immediately for
decoding. Attempting to decode by yourself may result in the permanent failure of the SIM card.
PUK code
PUK (Personal Unblocking Key, 8-digit) unlocks a locked PIN. If you enter the PUK incorrectly ten times in a row, the SIM card will become invalid. Please contact your network operator for a new SIM card.
Installing the SIM card
1. Press and hold the ending key to turn off the phone.
2. Remove the battery cover and then the battery.
3. Insert the SIM card into the card holder. Ensure that the cut corner is at the top left and the metal contacts face the phone.
4. Re-install the battery. Place the battery cover onto the back of your phone and slide it forward until the latch catches the cover.
Note: A SIM card can be easily damaged if its metal contacts become scratched. Therefore, take special care when holding or inserting it and keep it away from children.
Charging the battery
The battery is not fully charged when unpacked for the first time. It takes three charging-discharging cycles for the battery to reach its peak performance. The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times. However, the capacity of the battery will be reduced each time it is charged/emptied, and it will eventually wear out. When the talk time and the standby time are noticeably shorter than normal, replace the battery. Use only Micromax specified batteries and char ging devices only.
Unplug the charger from the outlet and the phone when not in use. Do not leave a fully-charged battery connected to a charger because overcharging may shorten the lifetime of the battery. If unused, a fully-charged battery will lose its charge over time.
If the battery is completely discharged, the charging may not start immediately when you plug in the connector. Wait 10 to 15 minutes for the phone to begin charging.
Use the battery only for its intended purpose. Never use any charger or battery that is damaged. Do not short-circuit the battery. An accidental short circuit may occur when a metallic object such as a coin, clip or pen causes the direct connection of
the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals of the battery, for example, when you carry a spare battery in your pocket or purse. Short circuit may damage the battery and the connecting object.
Storage at too high or low temperatures will result in a gradual capacity loss. As a result the operating time of your mobile phone may be considerably reduced, even after the battery is fully charged.
Do not dispose of batteries in fire as they may explode. Batteries may also explode if damaged. Dispose of unwanted batteries a
nd phones as permitted
by the laws in your country.
Battery type Standby time Call duration Li-ion battery 260 hours 180 minutes
Note: The actual operation time of a battery varies based on the operation mode, network settings and call settings.
Charge a battery according to the following steps:
1. Connect the charger to the connection jack of the phone in proper direction, and connect the charger to a main socket.
2. The phone displays "Charger Connected!" and starts charging after properly connected. The battery icon dynamically displays the charging
process. In switch-off state, the phone dynamically displays the charging process.
3. When the battery is fully charged, the charging process stops automatically, and the battery icon indicates full grid on the screen. After the battery
is fully charged, remove the charger from the phone and socket as soon as possible.
Note:
z After the phone has run out of battery, we recommend that you recharge the battery in time. If you do not recharge the battery in two days, the
phone may enter the slow charging mode. When you recharge the battery, there may be no display temporarily. After about 10 minutes, the
7
charging indicator icon is displayed on the screen of the phone. If you do not recharge the battery more than two days, the battery may enter the overdischarge protection state. Thus, in order to get the battery into normal charging mode quickly, we recommend that you charge the battery on an adapter to activate the battery for charging, and then charge the battery with the phone. Alternatively, you can charge the battery with the adapter.
z Do not change the parts and accessories of the battery by yourself or take off the battery cover for safety. z Use only original batteries and charging devices. Otherwise you risk serious damage to health and property. z The temperature range for charging a battery is -10°C to +55°C. Do not charge batteries in too high or too low temperature. z Do not use the phone while charging. z It takes approximately four hours to fully charge a battery. Remove the charger quickly after the battery is fully charged.
T-Flash card
T-Flash card is a kind of multimedia memory card. You can connect the phone to a computer with a USB cable to copy and move files between the T-Flash card and the computer. You can also browse photo, audio and video files stored in the phone or T-Flash card by the computer. Plug the smaller end of the USB cable into the data cable jack of the phone, and the bigger end into the USB port of the computer.
Switching the phone on
Press and hold the End key to turn the phone on/off. The phone will automatically search for the network, if there is no password protection for the SIM card and the phone. After the phone is registered on the network, the name of the service provider will be displayed on the idle screen. Then you can make or answer a call.
The phone remains in searching state if it fails to find the available network, temporarily. After the phone is switched on, if a password is required, enter the correct PIN code and press the left soft key or the OK key for confirmation. After
unlocked, the phone will display the name of the registered network and the signal strength. Contact your network operator if you do not know the PIN code. The default password of the phone is “1234”.
After the phone is switched on, if it displays “Insert SIM Card” on the screen, press and hold the end key to turn the phone off, and check whether the SIM card is properly inserted.
Switching the phone off
Press and hold the end key to turn the phone off. After the switch-off animation is displayed on the screen, the phone will be switched off. Do not attempt to turn the phone off by directly taking out the battery.
