To use your mobile, a SIM card is required at all times –
this contains important information about your mobile and
network. The message Insert SIM appears when the SIM
card is not installed.
Please take care of your SIM card and don’t keep it near
magnetic and electronic devices as this can interfere with
data storage and network operations.
• Turn your mobile over and slide the cover off
• Release the battery latch and lift the battery off the mobile
Please note:
Do not remove the battery when the mobile is on. Doing
so could cause you to lose personal settings or data stored
either on your SIM card or in the mobile’s memory.
Inserting your SIM card

• Slide the SIM card in under the metal grooves in the SIM
card slot, with the SIM card’s metal contacts facing down
and the cut corner at the top left
Please note:
A SIM card can be easily damaged if its metal contacts
become scratched. Therefore, take special care when
holding or inserting it.
If you wish to remove the SIM card, you
must first press down the stay, then push
the SIM card out of the slot.

Removing the battery
Slide the cover off. Push the battery latch inwards and then

charger in at the socket.
Please ensure you insert the charger the right side up.
Please note:
Before you use the battery for the first time, make sure

fully each time will help prolong its lifetime – and is much
better than frequent short bursts of charging.

• Do not remove the battery while your mobile
is charg i n g
• Do not over charge the Li-Ion battery, as this can re s u l t
in a reduction in battery perf o rmance and life span.
The recommended maximum charge time is 6-8 hours
• Never store a battery near a fire
• Don’t attempt to take the battery apart. Only use the
battery approved by the manufacturer
• Never touch the battery terminals with a metallic
object, as this can lead to short circuiting. Take special
care when carrying a battery in your pocket
• Misuse of the battery can lead to burns from hot
temperatures and even explosion. Never drop or
apply any physical shock to the battery as it may
damage the battery and even cause fire
• Please keep your battery out of children’s reach and
in a dry and cool area
• Store and charge your battery at room temperature.
Extremes of temperature can prevent full charging
and affect battery life and performance
• Since a battery is a consumable product, the
operating time will gradually decrease through use
• Keep the terminals of the battery clean and dry
• When there is risk of lightning, remove the charger’s
plug from the socket to protect the mobile
