1 General Information
1.1 Welcome
Thank you for choosing the ZTE WF832 CDMA Fixed
Wireless Terminal (FWT).
1.2 Safety Precautions
Some electronic devices are susceptible to
electromagnetic interference sent by FWT if
inadequately shielded; Try to use the terminal at least 20
cm away from TV sets, radio and other automated office
equipment so as to avoid electromagnetic interference.
Operating of FWT may interfere with medical devices
like hearing aides and pacemakers. Consult a physician
or the manufacturer of the medical device before using
the FWT.
Be aware of the usage limitation when using FWT at
places such as oil warehouses or chemical factories,
where there are explosive gases or explosive products
being processed, because even if your terminal is in idle
state, it still transmits radio frequency (RF) energy.
Do not touch the antenna while calling.
Keep the antenna free from obstructions and position the
antenna straight up. This will ensure best call quality.
1
Please put the terminal on the safe place. The terminal
may cause injury if used as a toy by children.
Do not put other things on the terminal to avoid
overlaying radiator.
Please use original accessories or accessories approved
by ZTE. Using any unapproved accessories may affect
your FWT’s performance, damage your terminal or even
cause danger to your body and violate related national
regulations about telecom terminals.
As your FWT can produce electromagnetic field, do not
place it near magnetic items such as computer disks.
Do not expose your FWT to direct sunlight or store it in
hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the life of
electronic devices.
Prevent liquid from leaking into your terminal.
Do not attempt to dismantle the FWT by yourself.
Non-expert handling of the devices may damage them.
It is highly recommended to charge the battery before
initial use. The battery may be fully discharged during
storage and delivery.
Keep the length of line between terminals and phone less
than 3 meters when it is connected to outer telephone.
Do not unplug the connector of the data cable from the
phone when the power is on.
2
1.3 Cleaning and Maintenance
The terminal is not water-resistant, so do not use it in
high humidity places such as the bathroom.
If you want to clean your terminal, please use clean
fabric that is a bit wet or anti-static. Turn off your
terminal before you clean it.
Do not use chemical cleaning solvents or strong
detergents to clean your terminal, such as alcohol,
dilution agent and benzene.
Use the terminal within a temperature range of
°
C~55°C and a humidity range of 25%~85%.
-10
Do not use your terminal during thunderstorm.

We, ZTE Corporation, declared that:
The user is cautioned that changes or modifications not
expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the
user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Your equipment is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is
4
designed and manufactured not to exceed limits for
exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S.
Government. These limits are part of comprehensive
guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy
for the general population. The guidelines are based on
standards that were developed by independent scientific
organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation
of scientific studies. The standards include a substantial
safety margin designed to assure the safety of all
persons, regardless of age or health.
This equipment complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1 )
This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2)
this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must be
installed with providing a separation distance of at least
20cm from all persons.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to
comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
5
interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more
of the following measures:
—Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
—Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver.
—Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiver is connected.
—Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/ TV
technician for help.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance could void the user‘s
authority to operate the equipment.
