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 that you follow airline
regulations. If airline personnel ask you to switch off your phone, or to disable its wireless functions,
please do as they say.
In a 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 gas station
Don't use your phone at gas stations. In fact, it's always best to turn it 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. Unauthorized 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.
Please do not touch or cover the antenna area (the upper part on the back of your phone) during a
conversation to avoid affecting talk quality and consuming more battery power, which might reduce the
talk time and standby time.
Around children
Keep your phone out of children's reach. It should never be used as a toy.
Original accessories
Only use the original accessories supplied with your phone or those approved by the manufacturer.
Using unapproved accessories may affect performance, void the warranty, break national regulations
on the use of 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 touch 'send'. Explain exactly where you are and
don't hang up until help has arrived.
Working temperature
The working temperature for the phone is between 0°C and 45°C. Please don't use the phone outside
the range. Using the phone under too high or too low a temperature might cause problems.
Eyesight
Please do not use your phone in dim light for a long time to avoid damage to your eyesight.
For some people, exposure to flashing lights (such as TV) might trigger seizures or dizziness. If you
have a history of seizures or epilepsy, consult a doctor before playing video games or enabling a
flashlight feature on your phone.

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.
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 fix 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.

Care & Maintenance
The following advice will help you to keep your phone looking good and performing well…
- Use a soft dry cloth to clean your phone 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 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 a dusty or dirty environment.
- 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.
- If there's anything wrong with the phone, battery, charger, or any accessory, please send them to your
nearest service center for inspection.
