1 General Information
1.1 Welcome
Thank you for using ZTE A16 GSM/GPRS dual-band digital mobile phone.
To guarantee the mobile phone always in its best condition, please read this manual
carefully and keep it for further use.
The pictures, symbols and contents in this manual are just for your reference. They
might not be completely identical with your cellular phone.
1.2 Security
If your mobile phone is lost or stolen, please report to your service provider or
proxy agencies to ban the use of your lost SIM card, which will protect you from
economic losses resulted from unauthorized use.
To protect your mobile phone from illegal use, please take the security measures
as follows:
Set PIN codes of the SIM card.
1
Set handset lock code.
Take it with you as you can.
Set call restrictions.
1.3 Safety Precautions
This section includes some important information on safe and efficient operation. Please
read this information before using the phone.
Operational Precautions
Please use your phone properly. When making or receiving a call, please hold your
phone as holding a wireline telephone. Ensure the phone is at least 1 inch (2.5
centimeters) from your body when transmitting.
Do not touch the antenna area (the upper area at the back of the handset) when the
phone is in use. Touching the antenna area affects call quality and may cause the
phone to operate at a high power level than needed.
Some people may be susceptible to epileptic seizures or blackouts when exposed
to flashing lights, such as when watching television or playing video games. If you
2
have experienced seizures or blackouts, or if you have a family history of such
occurrences, please consult with you doctor before playing video games on you
phone or enabling a flashing-lights feature on your phone. (The flashing-light
feature is not available on all products.)
Keep the phone out of the reach of small children. The phone may cause injury if
used as a toy.
Precautions While Driving
Please pay attention to the traffic safety. Check the laws and regulations on the use
of your phone in the area where you drive. Always obey them.
Use hands-free function of the phone, if available.
Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if conditions require.
Precautions for Medical Devices and Facilities
When using your phone near pacemakers, please: Always keep the phone more
than 8 inches (20 centimeters) from the pacemaker when the phone is switched on.
Not carry the phone in the breast pocket. Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to
minimize the potential for interference. Switch off the phone immediately if
3
necessary.
Some phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such
interference, you may want to consult your hearing aids manufacturer to discuss
alternatives.
If you use any other personal medical device, please consult the manufacturer of
your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from RF energy.
In those facilities with special demand, such as hospital or health care facilities,
please pay attention to the restriction on the use of mobile phone. Switch off your
phone if required.
Mobile phone
Please use original accessories or accessories approved by the phone
manufacturer. Using any unauthorized accessories may affect your mobile phone’s
performance, hurt your phone or even cause danger to your body and violate
related national regulations about telecom terminals.
Turn off your phone before you clean it. Use a damp or anti-static cloth to clean the
phone. Do not use a dry cloth or electrostatically charged cloth. Do not use
4
chemical or abrasive cleaners as these could damage the phone.
As your mobile phone can produce electromagnetic field, do not place it near
magnetic items such as computer disks.
Using the phone near electrical appliances such as TV, telephone, radio and
personal computer can cause interference.
Do not expose your mobile phone to direct sunlight or store it in hot areas. High
temperatures can shorten the life of electronic devices.
Prevent liquid from leaking into your phone.
Do not drop, knock or harshly treat the phone. Rough handling can break internal
circuit boards.
Do not connect the phone with any incompatible enhancement.
Do not attempt to disassemble the mobile phone and battery.
Do not store the phone with flammable and explosive articles.
Do not charge the mobile phone without battery.
Precautions for Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Switch off your phone prior to entering any area with potentially explosive
5
atmospheres, such as fueling areas, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.
Do not remove, install, or charge batteries in such areas. Sparks in a potentially
explosive atmosphere can cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or
even death.
T o avoid possible interference with blasting operations, switch off your phone when
you are near electrical blasting caps, in a blasting area, or in areas posted “Turn off
electronic devices.” Obey all signs and instructions.
Precautions for Electronic Devices
Some electronic devices are susceptible to electromagnetic interference sent by
mobile phone if inadequately shielded, such as electronic system of vehicles.
Please consult the manufacturer of the device before using the phone if necessary.
Safety and General Use in Vehicles
Safety airbag, brake, speed control system and oil eject system shouldn’t be
affected by wireless transmitting. If you do meet problems above, please contact
your automobile provider. Do not place your phone in the area over an airbag or in
the airbag deployment area. Airbags inflate with great force. If a phone is placed in
6
the airbag deployment area and the airbag inflates, the phone may be propelled
with great force and cause serious injury to occupants of the vehicle.
Please turn off your mobile phone at a refueling point, and the same to the place
where the use of 2-way radio is prohibited.
Aircraft Safety
Please turn off your mobile phone before the airplane takes off. In order to protect
airplane’s communication system from interference, it is never allowed to use
mobile phone when it is in flight. Using mobile phone before the plane taking off
should get aircrew’s permission according to safety regulations.
If the mobile phone has the function of automatic timing power-on, please check
your alarm setting to ensure that your phone will not be automatically turned on
during flight.
Battery use
Do not short-circuit the battery, as this can cause overheating to bring about fire.
Do not store battery in hot areas or throw it into fire. Otherwise, it will cause
explosion.
7
Do not disassemble or refit the battery. Otherwise, it will cause liquid leakage,
overheating, explosion and ignition of the battery.
Please store the battery in a cool dry place if you don’t use it for a long period.
The battery can be recharged for hundreds of times, but it will eventually wear out.
When the operating time (talk time and standby time) is noticeably shorter than
normal, it is time to replace a new one.
Please stop using the charger and battery when they are damaged or show
evidence of aging.
Return the wear-out battery to the provider or dispose of it in accordance with
environment regulations. Do not dispose of it in household rubbish.
Warning: If the battery is damaged, keep away fr om the discharge. If the leakage does
