Installing the SIM card

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 the 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 (SMS) and other system services.
Warning: do not distort or scratch the SIM card nor let it contact static electricity, dust or moisture. If it is lost, please contact immediately your network operator for help.
Before SIM card installation, please switch off the mobile phone. The SIM cards have to be inserted into the slots placed in the back side of the phone, under the battery. To remove the cover, start from the slit on the lower back side of the phone. Both SIM cards must be inserted with the golden contacts facing downwards.
Note: if only the SIM1 slot contains a SIM card, then only the primary SIM slot will function; likely, if only the SIM2 slot contains a SIM card, only the secondary slot works. When two SIM cards are inserted into both slots, you can freely choose the work mode you wish.
Note: as the SIM card is a small object, keep it out of children’s reach to prevent children from swallowing it!

dedicated slot for the memory card is placed beside the SIM cards slots (see below); unlock the memory card
slot by pushing the metal harness toward the ―Unlock‖ position, then insert the microSD card with the golden
contacts facing downwards. Then close and lock the harness.

Messages

SMS
Both SIM cards are able to send and receive SMS. When an SMS message is sent from a mobile phone, it will reach an SMS center first. The SMS center then forwards the SMS message towards the destination. If the recipient is unavailable (for example, when the mobile phone is switched off), the SMS center will store the SMS message. It will forward the SMS message when the recipient is available. The storage duration of the message depends on sender's settings and network operator's policy. Sending and receiving text messages can become costly depending upon the text message plan you have with your provider. Please contact your service provider/network operator for further details. If SMS storage capability is exhausted, a SMS icon will flash in standby screen. Unnecessary SMS storage can affect the reception of new SMS; please delete older messages to prevent such problems. When a message has been received, you will get an SMS notification message (if the option has been previously selected).
Note: when sending SMS, the phone will usually show the “Message sent” notification. This means that the SMS has been sent to the SMS Center, but the message could anyway not be received by recipients. Please contact your service provider/network operator for further details.
MMS
MMS is a standard way to send messages that include multimedia content (short video clips, photos and audio). If MMS is over the size limit, the phone won't display the message. The phone will automatically resize the images attached to the MMS, so that they can be fully shown on the screen. The visualization of each single MMS depends heavily upon the receiving devices.
Note: you can't send or receive multimedia content if your network operator/service provider does not support this service. Multimedia content can't be received or shown if the recipient doesn't have a MMS-compatible cell phone.
Write message
Select this option to write a new text message or a multimedia message. This device implements the T9 input mode, an advanced predictive text method for quickening and simplifying the whole message writing process. Each SMS can contain at most 160 characters; by linking two or more messages together (up to a maximum of 8, after that the message is automatically converted in MMS) you can build a combined message (up to a maximum of 1140 characters). Press the ― ‖ key to change the input method and the capital/small letters input. Press the key to delete the last entry; press and hold to clear it all. If the text contains more than 160 characters will be split into two or more parties. You can insert pictures, animations, sounds, etc. within an SMS. However, the SMS won't be received and displayed if the network and the receiving phone do not support it. To send an SMS/MMS, enter a number directly or choose a number from the phonebook. In dual-SIM, you can choose to send SMS/MMS via SIM1 or SIM2 away.
Available options:
Send to: send a message, inserting the addressee (typing or retrieving it from Phonebook). Insert symbol: insert one symbol in the text. Input method options: enable/disable from here the XT9 input mode and some of its features.
o Writing language: the phone has the Italian language and input method as default. For
different areas, there are other 4 different languages and the corresponding input method.

NGM – Special Functions

Calls & SMS firewall

The Black List of contacts (phone numbers) allows everyone to call you or send messages to you, except
for the members of the Black List.
When this access control function is active, a blacklisted caller will just hear busy tone all the time; later,
you will get a network SMS alert (if allowed in your network services) informing you about the number of the caller who was trying to contact you. Messages received from a blacklisted number will be automatically transferred to the Junkbox folder.
The White List of contacts allows nobody to call you or send messages to you, except for the members of
the White List. When this access control function is active, a non-whitelisted caller will just hear busy tone all the time; later, you will get a network SMS alert (if allowed in your network services) informing you about the number of the caller who was trying to contact you.
Messages received from a non-whitelisted number will be automatically transferred to the Junkbox folder.
Regardless of White and Black list, you can also block the calls coming from anonymous callers or from callers not stored in the Phonebook.
SIM1/SIM2 Here you can set and enable, separately for each SIM, a Black List and a White List, for Messages as well as for Calls.
Calls: Create a Black/White list for incoming calls: add the contacts to the Black or White List.

The option Firewall close allows to disable at the same time all the firewall combinations previously enabled.
Note: when the firewall type has been selected, you will be requested to set (if you want) the Activation Time and the Rejection Method (for the Calls Firewall).

Phone control

Phone Control is a function that has been designed to improve mobile device users' privacy and security. It is
composed of two applications (SIM binding and Remote Control, plus Trusted Numbers), allowing the user to manage security in different modes.
SIM binding: The SIM binding function is offered to help end-user to find his phone in case it has been
lost or stolen. The function is based on the binding between SIM card and phone: the device is able to recognize when a different SIM card is inserted into the phone and immediately alerts by SMS the 5 trusted numbers previously set by the owner. By activating this option, the phone password will be requested (1122 preset, changeable in Settings > Security settings > Change password). The user must first insert at least one trusted number for SMS notification. From Phone Control menu,
select ―Trusted Numbers‖ and insert up to 5 phone numbers to receive the message. Select Activation in SIM Binding and choose ―On‖ to enable the function.
After completing the configuration, at every start-up the phone will check the presence of the SIM cards to which it is bound to. If the two SIM cards are inverted or one of them has been removed, the phone still starts regularly.
23
User Manual
If a not-bound SIM card is inserted into the SIM1 or SIM2 slot, the phone shall display the ―Input phone password‖ popup (the default password is 1122, freely modifiable by user). If the password is correctly inserted, the phone starts regularly, but a popup will advise the user that the SIM card is changed: ―SIM card is changed. Do you want to bind it?‖ Choosing ―Yes‖, the current SIM cards will be bound replacing the old ones; choosing ―No‖, the old binding will remain active.
In case the wrong password is inserted, the phone will normally start and provide the ―new‖ user all the functionalities except for the ―Phone control‖ menu. In the meantime, an alert SMS ( - Attention: this phone number is using your mobile phone IMEI: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX - ) will be sent to all the trusted phone numbers set in the menu from each replaced SIM card. Every time the power on password is wrongly inserted, the phone will continue to send out alert SMS. If SIM1 has no money or is out of range, SIM2 will provide to send the alert SMS. If the SMS is not correctly sent out for any reason, the phone will attempt to send the SMS out periodically, until the SMS is correctly sent out.
Note: if Phone lock is enabled, this function chronologically comes before SIM binding. This means that even if the SIM binding is activated, it will be unavailable if the wrong password is inserted (because the phone simply won't boot). Tip: to avoid this problem, it's advisable to disable Phone lock and enable Privacy firewall instead, since this function assures the same high level of data security and does not inhibit the use of SIM binding.
Remote Control:
The user must first insert at least one number for SMS notification. The Remote control function is offered to provide end-user the possibility to manage some phone functions remotely from another phone able to send SMS out. Using this function, end user can, when he has not the phone with him, for ward calls, power the phone off or activate the answering machine. By activating this option, the phone password will be requested (1122). Please refer to the paragraph
―Security settings‖ in the chapter ―Settings‖ for the instructions on how to modify this password. Select ―Activation‖ and choose ―On‖ to enable the function.
Trusted Numbers: insert up to 5 phone numbers and edit and rename them as you wish with Options.
After completing configuration, the phone will accept the following remote commands from one of the trusted numbers.
1) Call forwarding
If the user wants to forward all the incoming calls to another number, he can send to the NGM phone (with its remote control enabled) an SMS containing the following text:
*#CALLFWD*#destination number, where ―destination number‖ is the number where the user wants to receive the forwarded calls.
Example:
- if the phone number with the NGM remote control enabled is +390000000000;
- if the phone number to remotely control the phone is +391111111111 (trusted number);
- if the phone number where you want to forward the calls is +392222222222. The operations sequence shall be: a) +391111111111 send one SMS to +390000000000 with the content: *#CALLFWD*#2222222222. b) +390000000000 receive one SMS from +391111111111 and automatically set the forwarding to +392222222222. c) all the incoming calls to +390000000000 shall be forwarded to +392222222222.
Note: the SMS content is “case insensitive”, so it may be indifferently written with capital letters, lower-case letters or a combination of the two.
24
User Manual
2) Remote shutdown (and activate the phone password at power on) If the user wants to remotely shut down the phone, he can send to the NGM Phone (with its remote control enabled) an SMS containing the following text:
*#SHUTDOWN*#
Example:
- if the phone number with the NGM remote control enabled is +390000000000;
- if the phone number to remotely control the phone is +391111111111 (trusted number). The operations sequence shall be: a) +391111111111 send one SMS to +390000000000 with the content: *#SHUTDOWN*#. b) +390000000000 receive one SMS from +391111111111 and automatically shut down. c) the phone password is automatically activated, so that it will require the use of the password at the next start­up. If the password is correctly inserted, the phone shall starts regularly, and won't require the use of the password anymore (except for the case of the user that choose this particular setting).
Note: the SMS content is “case insensitive”, so it may be indifferently written with capital letters, lower-case letters or a combination of the two.
3) Activate the answering machine
If the user wants to record all the incoming calls on the answering machine, he can send to the NGM Phone (with remote control enabled) an SMS containing the following text:
*#ANSW*#
Example:
- if the phone number with the NGM remote control enabled is +390000000000;
- if the phone number to remotely control the phone is +391111111111 (trusted number). The operations sequence shall be: d) +391111111111 send one SMS to +390000000000 with the content: *#ANSW*#. e) +390000000000 receive one SMS from +391111111111 and automatically activate the answering machine for both the SIM cards. f) all the incoming calls on +390000000000 shall be recorded on the answering machine.
Note: the SMS content is “case insensitive”, so it may be indifferently written with capital letters, lower-case letters or a combination of the two.

Declaration of conformity (R&TTE)
We, NGM Italia declare under our sole responsibility that the product identified as: GSM Mobile Phone: Soap EVO
conforms to the following standards and specifications:
Health EN 50360, EN 62209-1 Safety EN 60950-1+A11 EMC EN 301 489-1/-7/-17 Radio EN 301 511
EN 300 328 We declare that [all the series of fundamental radio test have been conducted and that] the aforesaid product meets all the essential requirements of the Directive 1999/5/EC. The conformity assessment procedure referred to in Article 10 and detailed in Annex IV of Directive 1999/5/EC has been followed with the involvement of the following notified bodies:
PHOENIX TESTLAB GmbH Königswinkel 10, D-32825 Blomberg, Germany

S.A.R. (Specific Absorption Rate)
SAR certification information
Cell phones are radio transceivers. They have been projected not to exceed the radio wave exposition limits recommended by international guidelines. These guidelines have been determined by the international independent scientific organizations ICNRP and IEEE and include security limits to ensure protection to all persons, independently from their age and health conditions. This phone meets European Union (EU) requirements concerning exposure to radio waves coming from telecommunication and radio devices. The exposure standard for mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as SAR (Specific Absorption Rate). The SAR limit recommended by the EU Council is 2.0 W/kg averaged over ten grams of body tissue. The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for use at the ear was 1,313 watt/kg [1,2]. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR of the phone while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a base station, the lower the power output of the phone. The Declaration of Conformity here above proves that the designated product is in compliance with the essential requirements and other relevant provisions of the R&TTE - Directive (European Radio & Terminal Telecommunications Equipment)1999/5/EC.

User Manual
NGM advises to use mobile devices of any brand or model with moderation and to keep them at a minimum distance of 1,5 cm from the body or to use earpieces or other hands-free devices.
[1] These controls have been made according to international guidelines on controls. [2] For the use next to the body, this telephone model has been controlled and is conform to the directives for the exposition to electromagnetic radiation, when used with accessories provided by or approved by NGM and not containing metallic parts and that position the mobile phone at least at 1,5 cm distance from the body.
Warnings
WHO (World Health Organization) confirms that the actual scientific information does not indicate the necessity to adapt particular precautions for the use of cell phones. Nevertheless, for all those users not comforted by these data, NGM advises to limit their own and their children’s exposure, for instance by reducing the calling time, or by using earpieces or hands-free devices to keep the mobile phone distant from the body and the head. For more information on the argument, NGM invites to consult the WHO document (Fact sheet N°193, June 2011) entitled Electromagnetic fields and public health: mobile phones at the following web address:
