Safety and use ����������������������������
We recommend that you read this chapter carefully before using
your phone. The manufacturer disclaims any liability for damage,
which may result as a consequence of improper use or use contrary
to the instructions contained herein.
• TRAFFIC SAFETY
Given that studies show that using a phone while driving a vehicle
constitutes a real risk, even when the hands-free kit is used (car kit,
headset...), drivers are requested to refrain from using their phone
when the vehicle is not parked.
When driving, do not use your phone and headset to listen to music
or to the radio. Using a headset can be dangerous and forbidden in
some areas.
When switched on, your phone emits electromagnetic waves that
can interfere with the vehicle’s electronic systems such as ABS antilock brakes or airbags. To ensure that there is no problem:
- Do not place your phone on top of the dashboard or within an
airbag deployment area;
- Check with your car dealer or the car manufacturer to make sure
that the dashboard is adequately shielded from phone RF energy.
• CONDITIONS OF USE
You are advised to switch off the phone from time to time to optimise
its performance.
Switch the phone off before boarding an aircraft.
Switch the phone off when you are in health care facilities, except
in designated areas. As with many other types of equipment now in
regular use, phones can interfere with other electrical or electronic
devices, or equipment using radio frequencies.
6
Switch the phone off when you are near gas or flammable liquids.
Strictly obey all signs and instructions posted in a fuel depot, petrol
station, or chemical plant, or in any potentially explosive atmosphere.
When the phone is switched on, it should be kept at least 15 cm from
any medical device such as a pacemaker, a hearing aid, or an insulin
pump, etc.. In particular when using the phone, you should hold it
against the ear on the opposite side to the device, if any.
To avoid hearing impairment, pick up the call before holding your
phone to your ear. Also move the phone away from your ear while
using the "hands-free" mode because the amplified volume might
cause hearing damage.
Do not let children use the phone and/or play with the phone and
accessories without supervision.
If your phone has a removable cover, note that your phone may
contain substances that could create an allergic reaction.
If your phone is a unibody device, the back cover and battery are
not removable. If you disassemble your phone the warranty will not
apply. Disassembling the phone may damage the battery, and may
cause leakage of substances that could create an allergic reaction.
Always handle your phone with care and keep it in a clean and dustfree place.
Do not allow your phone to be exposed to adverse weather or
environmental conditions (moisture, humidity, rain, infiltration of
liquids, dust, sea air, etc.). The manufacturer’s recommended
operating temperature range is 0°C (32°F) to 55°C (131°F).
At over 55°C (131°F) the legibility of the phone’s display may be
impaired, though this is temporary and not serious.
Do not open, dismantle, or attempt to repair your phone yourself.
Do not drop, throw, or bend your phone.
Do not use the phone if the glass screen is damaged, cracked, or
broken to avoid any injury.
Do not paint it.
7
Use only batteries, battery chargers, and accessories which are
recommended by TCL Communication Ltd. and its affiliates and are
compatible with your phone model. TCL Communication Ltd. and its
affiliates disclaim any liability for damage caused by the use of other
chargers or batteries.
Remember to make backup copies or keep a written record of all
important information stored on your phone.
Some people may suffer epileptic seizures or blackouts when
exposed to flashing lights, or when playing video games. These
seizures or blackouts may occur even if a person person has never
had a previous seizure or blackout. If you have experienced seizures
or blackouts, or if you have a family history of such occurrences,
please consult your doctor before playing video games on your
phone or enabling a flashing-lights feature on your phone.
Parents should monitor their children’s use of video games or other
features that incorporate flashing lights on the phones. All persons
should discontinue use and consult a doctor if any of the following
symptoms occur: convulsion, eye or muscle twitching, loss of
awareness, involuntary movements, or disorientation.
To limit the likelihood of such symptoms, please take the following
safety precautions:
- Do not play or use a flashing-lights feature if you are tired or need
sleep;
- Take a minimum of a 15-minute break hourly;
- Play in a room in which all lights are on;
- Play at the farthest distance possible from the screen;
- If your hands, wrists, or arms become tired or sore while playing,
stop and rest for several hours before playing again;
- If you continue to have sore hands, wrists, or arms during or after
playing, stop the game and see a doctor.
8
When you play games on your phone, you may experience
occasional discomfort in your hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or
other parts of your body. Follow the instructions to avoid problems
such as tendinitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, or other musculoskeletal
disorders.

Radio waves ��������������������������������
Proof of compliance with international standards (ICNIRP) or with
European Directive 2014/53/EU (RED) is required of all phone
models before they can be put on the market. The protection of the
health and safety for the user and any other person is an essential
requirement of these standards or this directive.
THIS DEVICE MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR
EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed
not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves (radio
frequency electromagnetic fields) recommended by international
guidelines. The guidelines were developed by an independent
scientific organisation (ICNIRP) and include a substantial safety
margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of
age and health.
The radio wave exposure guidelines use a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for
mobile devices is 2 W/kg for Head SAR and Body-worn SAR, and 4
W/kg for Limb SAR.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions
with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all
tested frequency bands. The highest SAR values under the ICNIRP
guidelines for this device model are:
Maximum SAR for this model and conditions under which it
Head SAR (5 mm) LTE Band 20 + Wi-Fi 2.4G 1.05 W/kg
Body-worn SAR
(5 mm)
Limb SAR (0 mm) UMTS 900 + Wi-Fi 5.0G 2.13 W/kg
was recorded
GSM 900 + Wi-Fi 5.0G 1.62 W/kg
13
During use, the actual SAR values for this phone are usually well
below the values stated above. This is because, for purposes of
system efficiency and to minimise interference on the network, the
operating power of your phone is automatically decreased when full
power is not needed for the call. The lower the power output of the
phone, the lower its SAR value.
Body-worn SAR testing has been carried out at a separation
distance of 5 mm. To meet RF exposure guidelines during bodyworn operation, the phone should be positioned at least this distance
away from the body.
If you are not using an approved accessory ensure that whatever
product is used is free of any metal and that it positions the phone
the indicated distance away from the body.
Organisations such as the World Health Organisation and the
US Food and Drug Administration have stated that if people are
concerned and want to reduce their exposure they could use a
hands-free device to keep the phone away from the head and body
during phone calls, or reduce the amount of time spent on the phone.
For more information, you can go to tcl.com.
Additional information about electromagnetic fields and public health
are available on the following site: http://www.who.int/peh-emf.
Your phone is equipped with a built-in antenna. For optimal
operation, you should avoid touching it or degrading it.
As mobile devices offer a range of functions, they can be used
in positions other than against your ear. In such circumstances
the phone will be compliant with the guidelines when used with a
headset or USB data cable. If you are using another accessory
ensure that whatever product is used is free of any metal and that it
positions the phone at least 5 mm away from the body.
