Installing the microSD Card and Battery

Switch off your phone before installing or replacing the battery.

Unmount the microSD card before removing it.

1. Remove the back cover.

2. Hold your microSD card with the metal contacts facing down and slide it in.

CAUTION: The microSD card cannot be installed or removed when the battery is in the phone.

NOTE: Some applications may require a microSD card to work normally or may store certain data on it. Therefore, it is recommended that you keep a microSD card installed and not remove or replace it randomly.

3. Insert the battery by aligning the metal contacts on the battery with the metal contacts in the battery compartment. Gently push down on the battery until it clicks into place.

4. Press the cover gently back into place until you hear a click. Make sure all the tabs are secure and there are no gaps around the cover.

Charging the Battery

Although the battery comes partially charged, it is recommended you fully charge the battery before using your phone for the first time.

If the battery is low, there will be a pop-up message on the 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. Open the charger/micro-USB jack cover.

2. Connect the adapter to the charger/micro-USB jack. Ensure that the adapter is inserted with the correct orientation. Do not force the connector into the charger jack.

3. Connect the charger to a standard AC wall outlet. If the phone is on, you’ll see a charging icon, such as or , appear on the status bar.

4. Disconnect the charger when the battery is fully charged.

Extending the Battery Life

Active applications, screen brightness levels, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi usage and GPS functionality can drain your battery. You can follow the helpful tips below to conserve your battery power:

 Reduce the screen backlight time.  Lower the screen brightness.  Turn Wi-Fi and Bluetooth off when not in use.

 Disable the GPS function when not in use. Most applications

using this function will periodically query the GPS satellites for your current location; each query drains your battery.

 When taking pictures, do not use a flash unless necessary.

Protecting Your Phone With Encryption

You can encrypt all the data on your phone: Google Accounts, application data, music and other media, downloaded information, and so on. If you do, you must enter a numeric PIN or 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:

1. Set a lock screen PIN or password.

2. Charge the battery.

3. Keep the phone connected to the charger.

4. 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. Touch the Home Key > Menu Key > System settings > Security > Encrypt phone.

2. Read the information about encryption carefully. The Encrypt phone button is dimmed if your battery's not

charged or your phone's not plugged in. If you change your mind about encrypting your phone, touch

the Back Key. WARNING! If you interrupt the encryption process, you will

lose data.

3. Touch Encrypt phone.

4. Enter your lock screen PIN or password and touch Next.

5. Touch Encrypt phone again.

The encryption process starts. Encryption can take an hour or more, during which time your phone may restart several times.

When encryption is completed, you're prompted to enter your PIN or password.

Subsequently, you must enter your PIN or password each time

you power on your phone, to decrypt it.
