5 6Some people may suffer epileptic seizures or blackouts when exposed to flashing lights, or when playing video games. These seizures or blackouts may occur even if a person never had a previous seizure or blackout. 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 cellphone or enabling a flashing-lights feature on your cellphone. Parents should monitor their children’s use of video games or other features that incorporate flashing lights on the cellphones.All persons should discontinue use and consult a doctor if any of the following symptoms occur: convulsion, eye or muscle twitching, loss of awareness, involuntary movements, or disorientation. To limit the likelihood of such symptoms, please take the following safety precautions:- Play at the farthest distance possible from the screen.When you play games on your cellphone, you may experience occasional discomfort in your hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of your body. Follow these instructions to avoid problems such as tendinitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, or other musculoskeletal disorders:- Take a minimum of a 15-minute break every hour of game playing.- If your hands, wrists, or arms become tired or sore while playing, stop and rest for several hours before playing again.- If you continue to have sore hands, wrists, or arms during or after playing, stop the game and see a doctor. Prolonged exposure to music at full volume using the music player may damage your hearing. Set your cellphone’s volume to it’s lowest setting prior to inserting headphones in your ears and adjust the volume to your preference. Only use headphones that are recommended by TCT Mobile Limited and it’s affiliates.• PRIVACY:Please note that you must respect the laws and regulations in force in your jurisdiction or other jurisdiction(s) where you will use your cellphone regarding taking photographs and recording sounds with your cellphone. Pursuant to such laws and regulations, it may be strictly forbidden to take photographs and/or to record the voices of other people or any of their personal attributes, and reproduce or distribute them, as this may be considered to be an invasion of privacy.It is the user’s sole responsibility to ensure that prior authorization be obtained, if necessary, in order to record private or confidential conversations or take a photograph of another person; the manufacturer, the seller or vendor of your cellphone (including the operator) disclaim any liability which may result from the improper use of the cellphone.Switch the cellphone off when you are near gas or flammable liquids. Strictly obey all signs and instructions posted in a fuel depot, gas station, or chemical plant, or in any potentially explosive atmosphere.When the cellphone is switched on, it should be kept at least 15 cm from any medical device such as a pacemaker, a hearing aid or insulin pump. In particular when using the cellphone you should hold it against the ear on the opposite side to the device, if any.Read and follow the directions from the manufacturer of your implantable medical device. If you have any questions about using your mobile device with your implantable medical device, consult your healthcare provider.To avoid hearing impairment, answer the call before holding your cellphone to your ear. Also move the handset away from your ear while using the “hands-free” option because the amplified volume might cause hearing damage. It is recommended to have proper supervision while small children use your cellphone.When replacing the cover please note that your cellphone may contain substances that could create an allergic reaction.Always handle your cellphone with care and keep it in a clean and dust-free place.Do not allow your cellphone to be exposed to adverse weather or environmental conditions (moisture, humidity, rain, infiltration of liquids, dust, sea air, etc.). The manufacturer’s recommended operating temperature range is -10°C (14°F) to +55°C (131°F)(the max value depends on device, materials and housing paint/texture).Over 55°C (131°F) the legibility of the cellphone’s display may be impaired, though this is temporary and not serious.Do not open or attempt to repair your cellphone yourself.Do not drop, throw or try to bend your cellphone.Do not use the cellphone if the glass made screen, is damaged, cracked or broken to avoid any injury.Do not paint it.Use only batteries, battery chargers, and accessories which are recommended byTCT Mobile Limited and its affiliates and are compatible with your cellphone model.TCT Mobile Limited and its affiliates disclaim any liability for damage caused by the use of other chargers or batteries.Your cellphone should not be disposed of in a municipal waste. Please check local regulations for disposal of electronic products.Remember to make back-up copies or keep a written record of all important information stored in your cellphone.

7 8• BATTERY AND ACCESSORIES:Before removing the battery from your cellphone, please make sure that the cellphone is switched off.Observe the following precautions for battery use:- Do not attempt to open the battery (due to the risk of toxic fumes and burns).- Do not puncture, disassemble or cause a short-circuit in a battery,- Do not burn or dispose of a used battery in the garbage or store it at temperatures above 60°C (140°F).Batteries must be disposed of in accordance with locally applicable environmental regulations. Only use the battery for the purpose for which it was designed. Never use damaged batteries or those not recommended by TCT Mobile Limited and/or its affiliates. This symbol on your cellphone, the battery and the accessories means that these products must be taken to collection points at the end of their life: - Municipal waste disposal centers with specific bins for these items of equipment - Collection bins at points of sale.They will then be recycled, preventing substances being disposed of in the environment, so that their components can be reused.In European Union countries:These collection points are accessible free of charge. All products with this sign must be brought to these collection points.In non European Union jurisdictions:Items of equipment with this symbol are not be thrown into ordinary bins if your jurisdiction or your region has suitable recycling and collection facilities; instead they are to be taken to collection points for them to be recycled.In the United States you may learn more about CTIA’s Recycling Program at www.recyclewirelessphones.comCAUTION: RISK OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS REPLACED BY AN INCORRECT TYPE. DISPOSE OF USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE INSTRUCTIONS• CHARGERSHome A.C./ Travel chargers will operate within the temperature range of: 0°C (32°F) to 40°C (104°F).The chargers designed for your cellphone meet with the standard for safety of information technology equipment and office equipment use. Due to different applicable electrical specifications, a charger you purchased in one jurisdiction may not work in another jurisdiction. They should be used for this purpose only.Characteristics of power supply (depending on the country):Travel charger: Input: 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz, 0.15 A Output: 5 V, 550/1000 mABattery: Lithium 1300 mAh• RADIO WAVES:THIS CELLPHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.Your cellphone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio-frequency (RF) energy.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. These guidelines include a substantial safety margin designed to ensure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.The exposure standard for cellphones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by public authorities such as the Federal Communications Commission of the US Government (FCC), or by Industry Canada, is 1.6 W/kg averaged over 1 gram of body tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with the cellphone 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 cellphone while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the cellphone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output of the cellphone.Before a cellphone model is available for sale to the public, compliance with national regulations and standards must be shown.The highest SAR value for this model cellphone when tested is 1.04 W/Kg for use at the ear and 1.04 W/Kg for use close to the body.While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various cellphones and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement for RF exposure. For body-worn operation, the cellphone meets FCC RF exposure guidelines provided that it is used with a non-metallic accessory with the handset at least 10 mm from the body. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.Additional information on SAR can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) Web site: http://www.phonefacts.netThe World Health Organization (WHO) considers that present scientific information does not indicate the need for any special precautions for use of cellphones. If individuals are concerned, they might choose to limit their own or their children’s RF exposure by limiting the length of calls, or using “hands-free” devices to keep cellphones away from the head and body. (fact sheet n°193). Additional WHO information about electromagnetic fields and public health are available on the following website: http://www.who.int/peh-emf.
