INSTALLING A microSDHC™ CARD
The microSDHC card can be installed and removed while the phone is powered
on. Unmount the microSDHC card before removing or replacing it.
1. Remove the back cover.
2. Hold your microSDHC card with the metal contacts
facing down and slide it into the card slot.
Note: Some applications may require a microSDHC
card to work normally or may store certain data on it.
Therefore, it is recommended that you keep a microSDHC
card installed and not remove or replace it randomly.
3. Press the back cover gently back into place until you hear a click.
CHARGING THE BATTERY
Your phone’s battery should have enough power for the phone to turn on,
find a signal, and make a few calls. You should fully charge the battery as

screen. As you charge your phone, the screen will tell you
the exact battery level each time you wake up your phone.
Warning! Use only ZTE-approved chargers and cables. The
use of unapproved accessories could damage your phone
or cause the battery to explode.
1. Connect the adapter to the charging port.
2. Connect the charger to a standard AC wall outlet. If the phone is on, you’ll
see a charging icon, such as or , appear in the Status Bar.
3. Disconnect the charger when the battery is fully charged.
Note: If the battery is extremely low, you may be unable to power on the
phone even when it is being charged. In this case, try again after charging
the phone for at least 20 minutes. Contact customer service if you still cannot
power on the phone after prolonged charging.

must draw a pattern or enter a numeric PIN or a password each time you power
on your phone.
WARNING! Encryption is irreversible. The only way to revert to an unencrypted
phone is to perform a factory data reset which erases all your data.
Encryption provides additional protection in case your phone is stolen and
may be required or recommended in some organizations. Consult your system
administrator before turning it on. In many cases the PIN or password you set
for encryption is controlled by the system administrator.
Before turning on encryption, prepare as follows:
• Set a lock screen pattern, PIN, or password.
• Charge the battery.
• Keep the phone connected to the charger.
Schedule an hour or more for the encryption process. You must not interrupt
it or you will lose some or all of your data.
When you’re ready to turn on encryption:
1. Tap the Home Key >
> Settings > Security.
2. Tap Encrypt phone.
The ENCRYPT PHONE button is dimmed if your battery is not charged or
your phone is not plugged in.

WARNING! If you interrupt the encryption process, you will lose data. Read
the information about encryption carefully.
3. Draw the lock screen pattern, or enter your lock screen PIN or password and
tap NEXT.
4. Tap ENCRYPT PHONE.
The encryption process starts and displays its progress. Encryption can take an
hour or more, during which time your phone may restart several times.
When encryption is completed, you’re prompted to draw the pattern or enter
your PIN or password.
Subsequently you must draw the pattern, enter your PIN or password each time
you power on your phone in order to decrypt it.
