hold your phone as holding a wireline telephone. Make sure that the phone is at least one inch (about two point five centimeters) from your body when transmitting.
4
y Do not touch the antenna 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.
y 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 suc h occurrences, please consult your doctor before playing video games on your phone or enabling a flashing-light feature on your phone. (The flashing-light feature is not available on all products.)
y Keep the phone out of the reach of small children. The phone may cause injury
if used as a toy.
Precautions While Driving
y 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.
y Use hands-free function of the phone, if available.
y Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if conditions require.
5
Precautions for Medical Devices and Facilities
y When using your phone near pacemakers, please always keep the phone more
than eight inches (about 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.
y Some phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such
interference, you may consult your hearing aids manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
y If you use any other personal medical device, please consult the manufacturer
of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from RF(radio frequency) energy.
y 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
y 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.
6
y Turn off your phone before you clean it. Use a damp or anti-static cloth
to clean the phone. Do not use a dry cloth or electrostatically charged cloth. Do not use chemical or abrasive cleaners as these could damage the phone.
y As your mobile phone can produce electromagnetic field, do not place it near
magnetic items such as computer disks.
y Using the phone near electrical appliances such as TV, telephone, radio and
personal computer can cause interference.
y Do not expose your mobile phone to direct sunlight or store it in hot areas. High
temperatures can shorten the life of electronic devices.
y Keep your phone dry. Any liquid may damage your phone.
y Do not drop, knock or harshly treat the phone. Rough handling can break
internal circuit boards.
y Do not connect the phone with any incompatible enhancement.
y Do not attempt to disassemble the mobile phone or battery.
y Do not store the phone with flammable or explosive articles.
y Do not charge the mobile phone without battery.
7
Precautions for Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
y Switch off your phone prior to entering any area with potentially
exp lo si ve atmospheres, such as fueling areas, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.
y 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.
y 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
y 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
y Safety airbag, brake, speed control system and oil eject system shouldn’t be
affected by wireless transmission. 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
8
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.
y 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
y 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. Safety regulations require you to have permission from a crew member to use your phone while the plane is on the ground.
y If the mobile phone has the function of automatic timing power-on,
ple ase check your alarm setting to make sure that your phone will not be automatically turned on during flight.
Battery Use
y Do not short-circuit the battery, as this can cause the unit to overheat or ignite.
y Do not store battery in hot areas or throw it into fire. Otherwise, it will
cause explosion.
y Do not disassemble or refit the battery. Otherwise, it will cause liquid leakage,
overheating, explosion and ignition of the battery.
9
y Please store the battery in a cool dry place if you don’t use it for a long period.
y 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 it with a new one.
y Please stop using the charger and battery when they are damaged or show
evidence of aging.
y Return the worn-out battery to the provider or dispose of it in accordance with
environment regulations. Do not dispose of it in household rubbish.
y Please use original batteries or batteries approved by the phone manufacturer.
Using any unauthorized battery may affect your handset performance or may cause danger of explosion, etc.
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.

Clearance and Maintenance
Please maintain your mobile phone with good care since it is delicately designed
and manufactured. The following advice might help you extend the life of your
mobile phone.
33
Clean your mobile phone, battery and charger with a soft dry cloth.
Do not clean your mobile phone with the liquor such as alcohol, dilution agent
or benzene.
Clean the socket from time to time because a dusty socket might cause
disconnection, power failure, or even charging failure.
Do not press keys with needles, pen points or other sharp objects to avoid
damage or misoperation.
Keep tiny metal objects such as thumb pins away from the phone receiver. The
phone speaker is magnetic and thus magnetizes those metal objects,
which may hurt people or damage the phone.
Keep your mobile phone dry. Rain, moisture or any kind of liquid containing
minerals might corrupt the circuit.
Don’t touch the mobile phone with wet hands because this might cause an
electric shock, which could cause an injury or damage the phone.
Don’t use and put your mobile phone in a dusty or dirty environment because
this might damage the phone components.
Don’t keep your mobile phone near high-temperature because it might shorten
34
the life of electronic devices, damage the battery, twist or melt some plastic
parts.
Don’t keep your mobile phone in a place where the temperature is too low,
otherwise the water vapor would form inside the phone when the temperature
rises up to normal degree, which would damage PCB of the phone.
Don’t put your mobile phone in or on heating devices (microwave oven, toaster
or radiator) because overheating might result in an explosion.
The colour of the waterproof label in the phone will be changed if the phone
or battery gets wet. In this case, the warranty provisions will become void
even if the warranty period doesn’t expire.
Please send your mobile phone to the nearest service center for inspection if
there is anything wrong with your mobile phone, battery, charger or accessories.
The service center staff will be happy to help.
