Setting Up Your Phone

Power off your phone before removing or replacing the battery. Power off your phone before installing or removing the nano-SIM card. The microSDXC card (optional) can be installed or removed while the phone is turned on, but you need to unmount it before removing it.

WARNING!

To avoid damage to the phone, do not use any other kind of SIM cards, or any non-standard nano-SIM card cut from a SIM card. You can get a standard nano-SIM card from your service provider.

1. Insert your fingernail into the slot at the bottom left of the back

cover and lift it up gently.

2. Install the nano-SIM card and the microSDXC card (optional).

 Slide the nano-SIM card into the card holder.

 Hold the microSDXC card with the cut corner oriented as

shown and slip it into the card slot.

3. Insert the battery. Make sure the connectors on the battery go

into the battery compartment first and align with the connectors in it. Gently push down on the battery until it clicks into place.

4. Install the back cover in the order and direction as shown in the

figure.

Charging the battery

Your phone’s battery should have enough power for the phone to turn on, find a signal, and make a few calls. You should fully charge the battery as soon as possible.

If the battery is low, there will be a pop-up message on the screen.

NOTE:

Your phone supports QuickCharge 2.0. To use it, you need to buy the compatible QuickCharge accessories which are sold separately.

WARNING!

Use only approved chargers and cables. The use of unapproved accessories could damage your phone or cause the battery to explode.

1. Connect the adapter to the charging jack. Ensure that the

adapter is inserted with the correct orientation. Do not force the connector into the charging jack.

2. Connect the charger to a standard AC power outlet. If the

phone is on, you’ll see a charging icon, such as appear on the status bar.

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