General Information
Welcome
Thank you for using ZTE A711G GSM Dual-band digital mobile phone.
To guarantee the mobile phone always in its best condition, please read this manual carefully and keep it for fu rther
use.
The pictures, symbols and contents in this manual are just for your reference. They might not be completely identical
with your mobile phone.
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 loss resulted from unauthorized use.
To protect your mobile phone from illegal use, take the security measures as follows:
¾ Set PIN 1 code of the SIM card.

¾ Take it with you as you can.
¾ Set call restrictions.
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 one inch (two point five centimeters) from your body when transmitting.
Do not touch the antenna area when the phone is in use. Touching the antenna area affects call quality and may
cause the phone to operate at a higher 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 have experienced seizures or blackouts, or if you have
a family history of such occurrences, please consult your doctor before playing 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 eight inches (twenty
centimeters) from the pacemaker when the phone is switched on. Do 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 necessary.
Some phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may 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.
4
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, damage your phone or even cause danger to your
body and violate related local 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 dr y
cloth or electrostatically charged cloth. Do not use 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.
Keep your phone dry. Any liquid may damage 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 are a with potentially explosive atmospheres, such as fueling areas,
fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.
Do not remove, install, or charge batteries in such areas. Spark in a potentially explosive atmosphere can cause
an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
To 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 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 two-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 forbidden to use mobile phone in flight. Using mobile phone before the plane
taking off should get aircrew’s permission according to safety regulations.
5
If the mobile phone comprises 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.
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 batter y to the provider or dispose of it in accordance with environment regulations. Do no t
dispose of it in household rubbish.
Only use the original batteries. Caution: Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Warning: If the battery is damaged, do not discharge it. If the leakage does come into contact with the eyes or skin,
wash thoroughly in clean water and consult a doctor.
Exposure to radio frequency energy
Radio wave exposure and Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) information The handset is designed to comply with
safely, requirements for exposure to radio waves. This requirement is based on scientific guidelines that include
safety margins designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The radio wave exposure guidelines employ a unit of measurement known as the specific Absorption Rate, or
SAR. Tests for SAR are conducted using a standardized method with the phone transmitting at its highest
certified power level in all used frequency bands.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various ZTE phone models, they are all designed to
meet the relevant guidelines for exposure to radio waves.
The SAR limit recommended is 1.6 W/kg averaged over one (1) gram of tissue. The highest SAR value for this
model phone tested by CTTL for use at the head is 1.52 W/kg(1g)
The highest SAR value for this model phone tested by CTTL for use at the body is 0.816 W/kg(1g) SAR
compliance for body-worn operations is restricted to belt-clips, holsters, or similar accessories that have no
metallic component in the assembly and which provide at least 1.5 cm separation between the device, including
its antenna, and the users body.
