Let’s get started

Thanks for choosing the Movistar Smile. It‟s a GSM dual
band GPRS digital mobile phone, which we‟ll simply call

„phone‟ from now on.

If you‟d like your phone to live a long and fruitful life, please

read this guide carefully and keep it for future reference.
You never know when you might need it.

1

And don‟t worry if the pictures we use to demonstrate your

phone‟s functions look a little different from what you see on

its screen. It‟s the functions they show that matter.

Lost or stolen?

If your phone goes missing, please tell your service provider
as soon as you know. That way other people can be barred
from using it.

2

Obviously, it‟s best to keep your phone with you at all times,

and we‟d strongly advise you to set a PIN, and change it

from time to time.

3

Using your phone safely

on the road

 Using a phone while driving is illegal in many countries. Please follow

local laws and drive safely at all times.

near sensitive electronics

 Don‟t use your phone near sensitive electronic equipment – 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

4

 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.

in hospital

 Your phone may interfere with the normal operation of medical

equipment. Follow all hospital regulations and turn it off when you‟re

asked to by posted warnings or medical staff.

at a petrol station

 Don‟t use your phone at petrol stations. In fact, it‟s always best to switch

off whenever you‟re near fuels, chemicals or explosives.

around water

 Keep your phone away from water (or any other liquid). It‟s not a

waterproof model.

making repairs

 Never take your phone apart. Please leave that to the professionals.

5

Unauthorised repairs could break the terms of your warranty.

broken antenna

 Don‟t use your phone if the antenna is damaged, as it could cause injury.

around children

 Keep your mobile out of children‟s reach. It should never 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.

6

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.

At very high volume, prolonged listening to a

mobile phone can damage your hearing.

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

ability to recharge. If you find that the battery won‟t recharge, it‟s time to

7

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 color 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 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

8

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.

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

9

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.

Work temperature and Frequency

The Handset work temperature is between 0℃ to 40℃.

Inserting and removing the SIM

Your phone needs a valid SIM card to work (…To keep it

simple, we‟ll just call it „SIM‟ from now on). Your network

connection data and your SIM address book are saved on
the SIM. So, to avoid damaging your SIM or losing data, try
not to touch the metal surface when you‟re handling it – and
keep well away from any magnetic or electric source.

here’s what you do…

1. Switch off your phone and disconnect any external

18

power.

2. Remove the back cover and then the battery.

3. Hold your SIM on the cut corner, and slide it – face

down – into the card holder.

4. Insert the battery.

5. Replace the back cover.

Charging the battery

The rechargeable Li-ion battery that
comes with your phone is ready to use,

but is not charged. That‟s easy to do. We‟ll

22

show you how below.

The first three times you use the battery, make sure it‟s

completely drained before recharging. And then recharge it
fully. That will help to ensure its optimum performance and
a long life.

1. Connect the charger to your phone, and plug it into an

110V/220V socket.

2. The battery indicator in the corner of the screen will scroll

up and down to show you it‟s charging. If the phone‟s

battery has been fully drained, the battery indicator may
not immediately appear on the screen when charging

starts. And please don‟t worry if the phone and charger

become warm while charging. That‟s completely normal.

23

3. When fully charged, the battery indicator will stop

scrolling up and down.

4. Disconnect the charger from your mobile, and unplug.

Power on/off

Press the power key until the power-on/off icon appears.

When you turn your phone on, it‟ll automatically check the

SIM and show the following information on screen:

 Input phone lock code: If you‟ve set a lock code.
 Input SIM PIN: If you‟ve set a PIN for your SIM.

Note:

24

The PIN is supplied with your SIM. Please replace it with your
own PIN as soon as possible. Enter the wrong PIN three

times, and your SIM will be locked. Then you’ll need to

contact your network service provider to ask for a PUK code

help you to keep it looking good and performing well…

 Use a soft dry cloth to clean your phone, battery and charger. Don‟t use

liquids such as alcohol, dilution agents or benzene.

 From time-to-time, clean the socket where the charger cable connects

to the phone. Dust tends to gather there. This will ensure a really good
connection.

 Don‟t use needles, pen points or other sharp objects on the keypad or

screen.

 Don‟t use your phone with wet hands – it could injure you and damage

the phone.

 Don‟t use your phone in dusty or dirty environment.

61

 Keep your phone away from extremes of heat – like radiators or ovens.

It may explode if it gets too hot.

 If your phone gets wet and the color of the label on it changes, the

warranty will be void, even if the warranty period hasn‟t expired.

RF 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

64

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 when tested for
use at the ear is 0.830 W/kg and when worn on the body, as described in this user
guide, is 0.921 W/kg (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 after searching
on FCC ID: Q78-X931.

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 1.5m from your body when the phone is switched on.

65

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.
