Use a damp or anti-static cloth to clean the handset. Do not use an ordinary dry cloth or electrostatic cloth. Do not use chemical or abrasive cleaners as these could damage the casing.

Third party equipment: The use of third party equipment, cables, or accessories, not made or authorized by ZTE, may invalidate the warranty of your phone and also adversely affect the phone’s safety and operation.

Remember to make backup copies of all important data on your handset.

Remember to recycle: The cardboard packing supplied with this handset is ideal for recycling.

Warnings: In the unlikely event of a battery leak, take care to keep the battery discharge away from your eyes and skin. If the leakage does come into contact with the eyes or skin, flush thoroughly with clean water and consult with a doctor.

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.

C78 User Manual

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 calls.

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 for poweringoff the device. If there is any uncertainty, the battery should be removed.

Observe any signs that indicate powering off your handset, such as those near gas stations or explosives.

If you have a heart condition, be careful with the setting of call vibration or tone volume. This phone is capable of producing loud noises which may damage your

C78 User Manual

hearing. Turn down the volume before using headphones, Bluetooth stereo headsets or other audio devices.

Do not allow children to play with the handset, charger or batteries.

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 camera lens and cause them to malfunction.

The phone contains metal and may cause a reaction for overly sensitive skin types.

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.

C78 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 a 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 the 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.

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.

C78 User Manual

Efficient Use

For optimum performance with minimum power consumption, do not cover the antenna area (It’s 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 needed, and may shorten talk and standby times.

Radio Frequency (RF) Energy

Your handset is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is turned on, it intermittently receives and transmits Radio Frequency (RF) energy in radio waves to handle and control the power level at which the handset transmits. Exposure to radio frequency energy:

Radio wave exposure and Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) information. The handset is designed to comply with safety 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.

C78 User Manual

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 for use at the head is

1.53 W/kg (1g).

The highest SAR value for this model phone tested for use at the body is 0.662 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 user’s body.

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, i.e., 911.

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.
