Your phone is designed to comply with all the necessary precautions and requirements and should be treated with care. The suggested safety measures will help you to use this product without causing you any health hazards.
Your phone is designed to comply with all the necessary precautions and requirements and should be treated with care. The suggested safety measures will help you to use this product without causing you any physical hazards.
When buying a cell phone, make sure it has a low SAR (Specific Absorption Rate).
Use a wireless hands-free system (headset) with a low power Bluetooth emitter.
Either keep calls short or send a SMS instead. This advice applies especially to children, adolescents and pregnant women.
Whenever possible, use cell phone only when the signal quality is good.
People having active medical implants should keep their cell phone at least 15cm away from the implant.
The FCC advice: “Many people mistakenly assume
that using a cell phone with a lower reported SAR
value necessarily decreases a user’s exposure to RF emissions, or is somehow “safer” than using a cell
phone with a high SAR value. While SAR values are an important tool in judging the maximum possible exposure to RF energy from a particular model of cell phone, a single SAR value does not provide sufficient information about the amount of RF exposure under typical usage conditions to reliably compare individual cell phone models.”
World Health Organization (WHO) Advice: Organizations such as the World Health Organization and the US Food and Drug Administration have stated
3
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.
Software Update Information
To enhance device performance, we recommend that you get in touch with the nearest VIDEOCON Authorized Service Center, regarding the availability of updated firmware for your device. Please see the enclosed Service Center Directory for the VIDEOCON Authorized Service Center nearest to your location.

“It is recommended to install the third party

“Memory Capacity - Memory capacity is dependent on Operating System usage. Available storage capacity may be less as it includes pre-installed operating system, such as Android and/or pre­installed applications, or media content, shared video/system memory.”
SAR
Your phone meets the SAR requirements for exposure to radio waves, recommended by Govt. of India. Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured so as not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio-frequency (RF) energy, as recommended by the Govt. of India. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The limits include a substantial safety margin designed to ensure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as SAR (Specific Absorption Rate). The SAR limit recommended by the Govt. Of India is 1.6 Watt/kg taken over a volume containing a mass of 1 gram of tissue. The highest SAR value for A55 is 0.000 W/Kg. Press *#07# to check the SAR value on your phone display.
Getting Started
Assembling the device
1. Locate the groove at the bottom of the device and gently remove the back cover by pulling it up from the device.
