Aircraft Safety
Switch off your phone or activate the airplane mode when inside or near an
aircraft. Use of handsets in an aircraft may be dangerous to the operation of the
aircraft and may disrupt the cellular network. Failure to observe this instruction
may lead to suspension or denial of phone service to the offender, or legal
action, or both.
Airplane mode allows you to use many of your phone’s features, such as
games, calculator, voice memos, and many others when you are in an airplane or
other area where wireless signals may cause interference. In the airplane mode,
you are prohibited from making or receiving voice/data calls.
13
C77 User Manual
Hospital Safety
Switch off your phone and remove its battery in areas where handset use is
prohibited.
Follow the instructions given by any respective medical facility regarding the use
of cellular handsets on their premises.
General Guidelines
Many jurisdictions have laws and regulations about taking pictures in public or
private areas regarding the processing and further use of such pictures. ZTE
encourages its customers to obey all laws and to honor the personal rights of
others.
Check the roaming agreement availability with your network operator.
The use of mobile phones is not allowed in some radiation sensitive areas, such
as hospitals, research centers, and airplanes. The user is responsible to poweroff the device. If there is any uncertainty, the battery should be removed.
Observe any signs that indicate to power off your handset, such as those near
gas stations, or explosives and power off the handset/device upon them.
If you have a heart condition, be careful with the setting of call vibration or tone
volume.
Do not allow children to play with the handset, charger, or batteries.
14
C77 User Manual
The operation of some medical electronic devices, such as hearing aids and
pacemakers, may be affected if a handset is used next to them. Observe any
Caution signs and the manufacturer’s recommendations.
Take care not to put your phone in the back pocket of your pants and then sit on the
phone. Also, do not put your phone at the bottom of a bag where it may be
subject to excessive weight or pressure as this may damage the LCD and cause
them to malfunction.
Your phone contains metal, which may cause you to develop an itch, rash or
eczema depending on your physical condition.
Do not leave the phone discharged or without a battery for a long period of time.
Otherwise some data may be erased.
Road Safety
You must exercise proper control of your vehicle at all times. Give your full
attention to driving.
Observe all of the recommendations contained in your local traffic safety
documentation.
Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call, if driving
conditions require so. Check if local laws and/or regulations restrict the use of
cellular phones while driving.
15
C77 User Manual
You must not stop on the hard shoulder of a motorway to answer or make a call,
except in emergency situations.
Switch off your handset at a refueling point, such as a gas station, even if you
are not refueling your own car.
Do not store or carry flammable or explosive materials in the same compartment
as the handset.
Electronic systems in vehicle, such as anti-lock brakes, speed control and fuel
injection systems are not normally affected by radio transmissions. The
manufacturer of such equipment may advise if it is adequately shielded from radio
transmissions. If you suspect vehicle problems caused by the radio transmitter in
handset, consult your dealer and do not switch on the handset until your
handset has been checked by a qualified technician.
Vehicles Equipped with an Airbag
An airbag inflates with great force. Do not place objects, including either installed or
portable wireless equipment, in the area over the airbag or in the airbag deployment
area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed and the airbag inflates,
serious injury could result.
16
C77 User Manual
Third Party Equipment
The use of third party equipment, cables or accessories, not made or authorized by
ZTE, may invalidate the warranty of the handset and also adversely affect the
handset’s operation. For example, use only the ZTE charger supplied with the handset.
Efficient Use
For optimum performance with minimum power consumption, do not cover the
antenna area (it is on the bottom of your phone) with your hand. Covering the antenna
affects the call quality, may cause the handset to operate at higher power levels than
otherwise needed, and may shorten talk and standby times.
Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
This model phone meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves.
This phone is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for
exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications
Commission of the U.S. Government:
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit
set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg. *Tests for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions accepted by the FCC with the phone transmitting at its
17
C77 User Manual
highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is
determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the
phone while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because
the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the
poser required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless
base station antenna, the lower the power output.
The highest SAR value for the model phone as reported to the FCC when tested
for use at the ear is 1.45 W/kg and when worn on the body, as described in this
user guide, is 0.723 W/kg (Body-worn measurements differ among phone
models, depending upon available enhancements and FCC requirements.)
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and
at various positions, they all meet the government 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 http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid
after searching on FCC ID: Q78-ZTEC77.
For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC RF
exposure guidelines for use with an accessory that contains no metal and the
18
C77 User Manual
positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body. Use of other
enhancements may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
If you do no t use a body-worn accessory and are not holding the phone at the
ear, position the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from your body when the phone
is switched on.
Emergency Services
To make an emergency call in any country:
1. Ensure your handset is ON and in service.
2. Press the End Key as many times as needed to clear the display and ready the
device for calls.
3. Enter a local emergency number.
4. Press the Send Key to dial the number. Follow instructions received and do not
end the call until told to do so.
Note: Tell the operator which service you require: Police, Ambulance, Fire Engine,
Coastguard or Mountain Rescue Service. Give your position and, if possible,
remain stationary and maintain contact. Due to the nature of the cellular system, the
connection of emergency calls cannot be guaranteed. You should never rely on any
wireless device for essential communication such as medical emergencies.

FCC Notice
This mobile phone complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2)
this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
This mobile phone has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate 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 determined 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 relocate the receiving antenna.
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.
20
C77 User Manual
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Turn on the HAC Setting
When the HAC setting is on, your C77 sends the audio from your phone calls to the
telecoil rather than to the microphone of your hearing aid. You are likely to hear calls
much better because volume is increased and background noise and feedback are
diminished. The HAC setting improves only the calls you listen to through the earpiece.
HAC requires extra battery power, so watch your battery consumption when it's turned
on.
