Battery care and safety

 Keep the battery in a cool, ventilated place

and out of direct sunlight.

 Although the battery is rechargeable, it’ll

eventually start to lose its ability to recharge.
If you find that the battery won’t recharge,
it’s time to replace it.

 Please don’t t hr o w old bat teri es into yo ur

household ru bbi s h. Y ou’l l fi nd the re are
special bins for batteries at refuse collection
points. And some high street electrical
stores provide a battery recycling service
too.

 Never throw the battery into a fire – it’s

highly inflammable and could explode,
hurting you or somebody else.

 When you put the battery into your phone,

there’s no ne ed to use force. Exertin g too
much pressure could make it leak, overheat,
explode or burst into flame.

 Never take the battery apart. This may

result in leakage, overheating, explosion or
fire.

 If the battery becomes hot, changes colour

or shape at any time (when in use, charging
or even while in storage) please stop using
it immediately and replace.

 Keep the battery dry. Damp or wet

conditions can cause it to overheat or
corrode.

- 16 -

 Don’t leave the battery in direct sunlight or

anywhere really hot, like in a car on a
summer’s day. That could make it leak or
overheat, while lowering its performance and
shortening its life.

 Don’t charge the battery continuously for 24

hours. Overcharging is not good for it.

Note:

Please avoid contact with the materials
inside a damaged or leaking battery. If
they get on your skin, wash with lots of
water and see k medical assist ance if
required.

RISK OF EXPLO SION IF BATTERY IS
REPLACED BY AN INCORRECT TYPE.
DISPOSE OF USED BATTERIES
ACCORDING TO THE INSTRUCTIONS.

Adapter shall be installed near the
equipment and shall be easily accessible.

- 17 -

Charger care and safety

 Only plug into v olta ges be t ween 100VAC

and 240VAC. Using a voltage outside that
range can damage the phone/charger – and
cause the battery to leak or catch fire.

 Never short-circuit the charger – this may

cause el ect roc ut io n, overheati ng or
damage.

 Don’t charge the phone in direct sunlight or

in an area where it’s damp, dusty, or on a
vibrating surface. And charging your phone
near – or on – a TV or radio could interfere
with transmission.

 Don’t use the charger if the power cable is

damaged. It may cause a fire or give
someone an electric sho ck .

 Keep water wel l awa y from the char ger . If

the charger do es get spla s he d b y wate r , or
any other kind of liquid, immediately unplug
it to avoid overheating, fire or electrocution.

 Don’t take the charger apart. It could cause

injury, give yo u an electric shoc k or catc h
fire.

 Never touch any charger, electric cable or

socket wit h wet han ds.

 Don’t place heavy objects on the electric

cable.

 If the cable is damaged, don’t try to mend it

yourself – it could cause a fire or electrocute
you.

- 18 -

 Always unplug the charger before you clean

it.

 When unplugging the charger, hold the plug

itself, rather than pulling on the cable. A
damaged ca bl e can cau se el ec tro c uti o n or
fire.

- 19 -

Care and maintenance

 Your phone is a delicate device. The

following adv ic e wil l hel p yo u to keep it
looking goo d and perf orm i ng well…

 Use a soft dry cloth to clean your phone,

battery and charger. Don’t use liquids such
as alcohol, dilution agents or benzene.

 From time-to-time, clean the socket where

the charger cable connects to the phone.
Dust tends to gather there. This will ensure
a really good connection.

 Don’t use needles, pen points or other sharp

objects on the keypad or screen.

 Don’t use your ph on e wit h we t hands – it

could injure you and damage the phone.

 Don’t use your ph on e in dus t y or dirt y

environment.

 Keep your phone away from extremes of

heat – like radiators or ove ns . It ma y
explode if it gets too hot.

 If your phone gets wet an d the c olo ur of the

 If there’s anything wrong with the phone,

battery, ch ar ge r, or an y acc esso ry, please
send them to your nearest service centre
for inspection.

Certification information (SAR)

This mobile de vi ce me ets guidelin es for
exposure to radio waves.

This device does not support V.O.I.P. function.
It means that the functions of WLAN and
Bluetooth do not have voice capability in the
held to ear mode for phone service.

Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and
receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits
for exposure to radio waves recom m en ded by
international guidelines. These guidelines were
developed by the independent scientific
organizat io n IC N IRP and include safety
margins designed to assure the protection of all
persons, regardless of age and health.

The exposure guidelines for mobile devices
employ a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate or SAR. The SAR limit
stated in the ICNIRP guidelines is 1.6
watts/kil og ram (W/kg) averag ed over 1 gram of
tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted using
standard op era ti n g posi tio ns wit h the d evic e
transmitting at its highest certified power level
in all tested frequency bands. The actual SAR
level of an operating device can be below the
maximum value because the device is
designed to use only the power required to
reach the network. That amount changes
depending on a number of factors such as how
close you are to a network base station.

Use of device accessories and enhancements
may result in different SAR values. SAR values

- 21 -

may vary depending on national reporting and
testing req uir em ent s and the netw or k band .

Your mobile device is also designed to meet the
requirements for

exposure to radio waves

established by the Federal Communications
Commission (U SA) and Industry Canada. These
requirements set a SAR limit of 1.6 W/kg
averaged over one gram of tissue. The highest
SAR value reported under this standard during
product certification for use at the head is 0.560
W/Kg an d wh en pr op er ly worn on the body is

1.367 W/Kg. Simultaneous RF expos ure i s

1.531W/Kg.
While there m a y be differences b et ween t he

SAR levels of individual phones and at various
positions, they all meet the governm e nt
requirement.

The FCC has granted an Equipment
Authorization for this model phone with all
reported SAR levels evaluated as in
compliance with the FCC RF exposure
guidelines. SAR information on this model
phone is on file with the FCC and can be found
under the Display Grant section of
www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after searching on
FCC ID: SRQ- V320.

For body worn operation, this phone has been
tested and meets the FCC RF exposure
guidelin es for us e wit h an accessory that
contains no metal an d that positions the
handset a minim um of 1.0 cm from the bod y.
Use of other accessories may not ensure

- 22 -

compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
If you d o not us e a bo dy -w or n acce s sory an d ar e
not holding the phone at the ear, position the
hands et a mini mu m of 1. 0 cm fro m y our body
when the phone i s sw it ched on.

FCC compliance information

FCC statements:

- 23 -

radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determin ed by turning
the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by
one or more of the following measures:

‐ Reorient or rel ocat e the receivin g ante nna .
‐ Increase the separation between the

equipment and receiver.
‐Connect the equipment into an outlet on a
circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
‐Consult the deal e r or an e xperi enced
radio/TV technician for help.
