Getting Started

CHARGING THE BATTERY

The battery of your Device is not fully charged as you unpack it, so you

need to charge it. When charging for the first time, we recommend charging the device for 8 to 12 hours when off. Full charging will subsequently take 5 to 6 hours. It’s strongly recommended to keep the Device off during the first charge, otherwise power consumption could be more, than charging, especially when you charge it from PC. Follow next steps to charge the battery:

1. Make sure the Device is off. In opposite case, press On/Off button

for a few seconds and select Power Off in menu appeared. The Device will shut down.

2. Connect your Device to power supply or computer using the mi-

croUSB cable included in package.

• Connect a USB cable to the jack of the Device:

USB cable

ATTENTION! Incorrect connection of the USB cable can seriously damage the

Device. Damages of the Device, caused by incorrect connection, aren’t covered by warranty.

• While the USB cable is connected, the Device should be near to

PC/charger.

NOTE It’s recommended to charge the battery using the charging device. In case if

you charge the battery from PC, it’s better to keep the Device off, because power consumption could be more, than charging.

for Internet access (for example, synchronization). Consult with your mobile operator about traffic rates.

The Device supports GSM and/or WCDMA mobile networks connection

for Internet access.

Device will ask you to enter it from on-screen keyboard. PIN-code re-

quest settings can be changed in Settings> Security > SIM card lock >

PIN-code when you are unlocking the screen, also you can change the SIM-card PIN-code.

NOTE In case when Lock SIM card parameter is on, you will be asked for PIN every

time when you’re unlocking the screen.

Usually mobile network operators pre-configure connection settings (such as APN) on a SIM-card, so the Device will connect to the network automatically.

ATTENTION! If the Device is connected to Wi-Fi network, it will have higher prior-

ity for data transfer.

If you need to change connection configuration, go to Settings > Wireless

& networks > More > Mobile networks.
