Security
 To protect your mobile phone from illegal use, take the security
measures as follows:
 Set PIN codes of the SIM card.
 Set handset password.
 Set call restrictions.
Safety Precautions
This section includes some important information on safe and efficient
operation. Please read this information before using the phone.
Operational Precautions
 Please use your phone properly. When making or receiving a call,
please hold your phone as holding a wireline telephone. Make sure
that the phone is at least one inch (about two point five
centimeters) from your body when transmitting.
 Do not touch the antenna when the phone is in use. Touching the
antenna area affects call quality and may cause the phone to operate at
a higher power level than needed.
5
 Some people may be susceptible to epileptic seizures or blackouts when
exposed to flashing lights, such as when watching television or playing
video games. If you have experienced seizures or blackouts, or if you
have a family history of such occurrences, please consult your doctor
before playing video games on your phone or enabling a flashing-light
feature on your phone. (The flashing-light feature is not available on all
products.)
 Keep the phone out of the reach of small children. The phone may cause
injury if used as a toy.
Precautions While Driving
 Please pay attention to the traffic safety. Check the laws and
regulations on the use of your phone in the area where you drive.
Always obey them.
 Use hands-free function of the phone, if available.
 Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if conditions
require.
6
Precautions for Medical Devices and Facilities
 When using your phone near pacemakers, please always keep the
phone more than eight inches (about twenty centimeters) from the
pacemaker when the phone is switched on. Do not carry the phone in
the breast pocket. Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize
the potential for interference. Switch off the phone immediately if
necessary.
 Some phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event
of such interference, you may consult your hearing aids
manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
 If you use any other personal medical device, please consult the
manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded
from RF(radio frequency) energy.
 In those facilities with special demand, such as hospital or health care
facilities, please pay attention to the restriction on the use of mobile
phone. Switch off your phone if required.
7
Mobile Phone
 Please use original accessories or accessories approved by the
phone manufacturer. Using any unauthorized accessories may
affect your mobile phone’s performance, damage your phone or even
cause danger to your body and violate related local regulations about
telecom terminals.
 Turn off your phone before you clean it. Use a damp or anti-static
cloth to clean the phone. Do not use a dry cloth or electrostatically
charged cloth. Do not use chemical or abrasive cleaners as these
could damage the phone.
 As your mobile phone can produce electromagnetic field, do not place
it near magnetic items such as computer disks.
 Using the phone near electrical appliances such as TV, telephone,
radio and personal computer can cause interference.
 Do not expose your mobile phone to direct sunlight or store it in hot
areas. High temperatures can shorten the life of electronic devices.
 Keep your phone dry. Any liquid may damage your phone.
 Do not drop, knock or harshly treat the phone. Rough handling can
break internal circuit boards.
 Do not connect the phone with any incompatible enhancement.
8
 Do not attempt to disassemble the mobile phone or battery.
 Do not store the phone with flammable or explosive articles.
 Do not charge the mobile phone without battery.
Precautions for Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
 Switch off your phone prior to entering any area with potentially
explosive atmospheres, such as fueling areas, fuel or chemical transfer
or storage facilities.
 Do not remove, install, or charge batteries in such areas. Spark in a
potentially explosive atmosphere can cause an explosion or fire
resulting in bodily injury or even death.
 To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, switch off your
phone when you are near electrical blasting caps, in a blasting
area, or in areas posted “Turn off electronic devices.” Obey all signs
and instructions.
9
Precautions for Electronic Devices
 Some electronic devices are susceptible to electromagnetic
interference sent by mobile phone if inadequately shielded, such as
electronic system of vehicles. Please consult the manufacturer of the
device before using the phone if necessary.
Safety and General Use in Vehicles
 Safety airbag, brake, speed control system and oil eject system
shouldn’t be affected by wireless transmission. If you do meet
problems above, please contact your automobile provider. Do not
place your phone in the area over an airbag or in the airbag
deployment area. Airbags inflate with great force. If a phone is placed in
the airbag deployment area and the airbag inflates, the phone may
be propelled with great force and cause serious injury to occupants of
the vehicle.
 Please turn off your mobile phone at a refueling point, and the same
to the place where the use of two-way radio is prohibited.
10
Aircraft Safety
 Please turn off your mobile phone before the airplane takes off. In
order to protect airplane’s communication system from interference, it
is forbidden to use mobile phone in flight. Safety regulations require
you to have permission from a crew member to use your phone while
the plane is on the ground.
 If the mobile phone has the function of automatic timing power-on,
please check your alarm setting to make sure that your phone will not
be automatically turned on during flight.
Battery Use
 Do not short-circuit the battery, as this can cause the unit to overheat
or ignite.
 Do not store battery in hot areas or throw it into fire. Otherwise, it will
cause explosion.
 Do not disassemble or refit the battery. Otherwise, it will cause liquid
leakage, overheating, explosion and ignition of the battery.
 Please store the battery in a cool dry place if you don’t use it for a long
period.
11
 The battery can be recharged for hundreds of times, but it will
eventually wear out. When the operating time (talk time and standby
time) is noticeably shorter than normal, it is time to replace it with a
new one.
 Please stop using the charger and battery when they are damaged or
show evidence of aging.
 Return the worn-out battery to the provider or dispose of it in
accordance with environment regulations. Do not dispose of it in
household rubbish.
 Please use original batteries or batteries approved by the phone
manufacturer. Using any unauthorized battery may affect your handset
performance or may cause danger of explosion, etc.
Warning: If the battery is damaged, do not discharge it. If the leakage does
come into contact with the eyes or skin, wash thoroughly in clean water
and consult a doctor.
12
RF Exposure
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to
exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves recommended by international
guidelines. These guidelines were developed by the independent scientific
organisation ICNIRP and include safety margins designed to assure the
protection of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as Specific Absorption
Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile devices is 2.0 W/kg and the highest
SAR value for this device when tested at the ear was 1.030 W/kg*. As mobile
devices offer a range of functions, they can be used in other positions,
such as on the body as described in this user guide.
As SAR is measured utilising the device’s highest transmitting power, the
actual SAR of this device while operating is typically below that indicated
above. This is due to automatic changes to the power level of the device to
ensure it only uses the minimum power required to communicate with the
network.
* The tests are carried out in accordance with EN 62209-1.
13
Body Worn Operation
Important safety information regarding radio frequency(RF) radiation
exposure.
To ensure compliance with RF exposure guidelines the phone must be
used with a minimum of 15 mm separation from the body.
Failure to observe these instructions could result in your RF exposure
exceeding the relevant guideline limits.
Limitation of Liability
ZTE shall not be liable for any loss of profits or indirect, special,
incidental or consequential damages resulting from or arising out of or
in connection with using this product, whether or not ZTE had been
advised, knew or should have known the possibility of such damages.
The user should refer to the enclosed warranty card for full warranty and
service information.
