– particularly medical devices such as pacemakers – as it
could cause them to malfunction. It can also interfere with
the operation of fire detectors and other automatic-control
equipment.

 For more information about how your phone affects

pacemakers or other electronic equipment, please
contact the manufacturer or your local distributor.

 Your phone may cause interference when used near TVs,

radios or automated office equipment.

while flying

 Your phone can cause interference with aircraft

equipment. So it’s essential you follow airline regulations.
And if airline personnel ask you to switch off your phone,
or disable its wireless functions, please do as they say.

-23-

be used as a toy and it might not be good for their health.

original accessories

 Only use the original accessories supplied with your

phone or those approved by the manufacturer. Using
unapproved accessories may affect performance, make
the warranty void, break national regulations on the use
of mobile phones, or even cause injury.

near explosives

 Turn off your phone in or near areas where explosive

materials are used. Always obey local laws and turn off
your phone when requested.

emergency calls

 To make an emergency call your phone must be turned

on and in an area where there’s network coverage. Dial
the national emergency number and press ‘send’. Explain
exactly where you are and don’t hang up until help has
arrived.

working temperature

and 40℃. Please don’t use the phone outside the range.
Using the phone under too high or too low temperature

-24-

might cause problems.

At very high volume, prolonged listening to a mobile
phone can damage your hearing.

-25-

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 throw old batteries into your household

rubbish. You’ll find there 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 need

to use force. Exerting 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.

 Don’t leave the battery in direct sunlight or anywhere really

-26-

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 seek medical assistance if required.

-27-

Charger care and safety

 Only plug into voltages between 110VAC and 220VAC.

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

electrocution, overheating 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 shock.

 Keep water well away from the charger. If the charger

does get splashed by water, 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

you an electric shock or catch fire.

 Never touch any charger, electric cable or socket with wet

hands.

 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.

 Always unplug the charger before you clean it.
 When unplugging the charger, hold the plug itself, rather

than pulling on the cable. A damaged cable can cause
electrocution or fire.

Health and safety

4RF exposure information (SAR)

This mobile 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 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, described in this user guide, is

Position SAR(W/Kg)

Head 1.167W/Kg
Body 1.116W/Kg

-29-

(Body-worn measurements differ among phone models,
depending upon available accessories 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
ID:Q78-V6020.

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 positions the
handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body. Use of other
accessories 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 1.5cm from your body when the
phone is switched on.

This device is compliance with SAR for general population
/uncontrolled exposure limits in ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1999 and
had been tested in accordance with the measurement
methods and procedures specified in OET Bulletin 65
Supplement C.
