If the leakage does come into contact with the eyes or skin, please flush thoroughly in clean water and consult with a doctor. Aircraft Safety • Power off your phone before the airplane takes off. In order to protect airplane’s communication system from interference, it is prohibited to use mobile phone in flight. If you want to use mobile phone before the airplane takes off, you should get aircrew’s permission according to safety regulations. • If the mobile phone has the function of automatic timing power-on, please check your alarm setting to ensure that your phone will not be automatically powered on during the flight.

General Guidelines • In  some  countries,  national  law  prohibits  private  copying  of  copyrighted  material.  Please  check  the national legislation of the applicable country concerning the use of such material. • Many  jurisdictions  have  laws  and  regulations  about  taking  pictures  in  public  or  private  areas  and regarding the processing and further use of such pictures. The manufacturer encourages its customers to obey all laws and to respect the personal rights of others. • Please check roaming agreement availability with your service provider. • The use of mobile phones is not allowed in some radiation sensitive areas, such as hospitals, research centers and airplanes. The user is responsible to power-off the device. If there is any uncertainty, you should remove the battery from the handset. • Observe any signs that indicate powering off handsets, such as those near gas stations, or explosives, and power off the handset/device immediately. • If you have a heart condition, be careful with the settings of call vibration or tone volume. • Do not allow children to play with the handset, charger or batteries. • Do not use the handset where blasting is in progress. • Do not try to make a call or conversation while the temperature of charging battery is above 50°C. • Take care not to put your handset in the back pocket of your trousers or skirt and then sit on it.

  D300 User Manual  Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION 3    condition.  Road Safety • You must exercise proper control of your vehicle at all times. Give your full attention to driving. • Observe all of the recommendations contained in your local traffic safety documentation. • Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call, if driving conditions require so. Check if local laws and/or regulations restrict the use of handsets while driving. • You  MUST NOT  stop  on  the  hard shoulder  of  a  motorway to  answer  or  make a  call,  except  in  an emergency. • Power off your handset at a refueling point, such as a gas station, even if you are not refueling your own car. • Do not store or carry flammable or explosive materials in the same compartment as the handset. • Electronic systems in vehicle, such as anti-lock brakes, speed control and fuel injection systems are not normally  affected  by  radio  transmissions.  The  manufacturer  of  such  equipment  can  advise  if  it  is adequately  shielded  from  radio  transmissions.  If  you  suspect  vehicle  problems  caused  by  radio transmissions,  consult  your  dealer  and  do  not  power  on  the  handset  until  it  has  been  checked  by  a qualified technician.  Vehicles Equipped with an Airbag An airbag inflates with great force. Do not place objects, including either installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area over the airbag or in the airbag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed and the airbag inflates, serious injury could result.  Third Party Equipment The use of third party equipment, cables or accessories, not made or authorized by ZTE, may invalidate the warranty of your handset and also adversely affect the phone’s safety/operation.  Radio Frequency (RF) Energy This model 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 1.6 W/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 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. The highest SAR value for this model phone as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the ear is     0.848W/kg  and  when  worn  on  the  body,  as  described  in  this  user  guide,  is  0.819W/kg  (Body-worn measurements  differ  among  phone  models,  depending  upon  available  enhancements  and  FCC requirements.) While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they
   D300 User Manual 4 Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION 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-ZTECD300. 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 that positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body.    Use of other enhancements may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.    If you do not use a body-worn accessory and are not holding the phone at the ear, position the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from your body when the phone is switched on. Emergency Services To make an emergency call in any country: 1. Ensure that your handset is on and in service. 2. Tab Home Key as many times as needed to go back to Home screen. 3. Tab the Dialer. 4. Enter  the  official  emergency  number  for  your  present  location,  for  example,  112  (the  international emergency number). 5. Tab    to dial the number. Follow instructions received and do not end the call until told to do so.   Notes:  • Tell the operator which service you require: Police, Ambulance, Fire Brigade, Coastguard or Mountain Rescue Service. Tell them where you are and remain stationary to maintain contact if possible.  • Due to the nature of the cellular system, the connection of emergency calls cannot be guaranteed. You should never rely solely on any wireless device for essential communications like medical emergencies.  FCC Compliance This device 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. Caution:  Changes  or  modifications not  expressly  approved  by  the  manufacturer  could  void  the  user’s authority to operate the equipment. 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 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.
  D300 User Manual  Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION 5     Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. Information on Privacy Camera  usage  and  photo/audio/video  recordings  carried  out  with  the  handset  can  offend  the confidentiality of the subjects.

 Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION 34   C h a p t e r    12   Questions and Answers If  you  encounter  problems  while  using  the  phone,  or  if  it  performs  erratically,  you  can  consult  the information in the chart below. If your particular problem cannot be resolved using the information in the chart, contact the dealer where you purchased the phone. Problem Possible causes Possible solution Poor reception • The network signal is too weak at your current location, for example, in a basement or near a tall building, because wireless transmissions can not effectively reach it. Move to a location where the network signal can be properly received. • The network is busy at the current time (for example, during peak times, there may be too much network traffic to handle additional calls). Avoid using the phone at such times, or try again after waiting a short time. • You are too far away from a base station for your service provider. You can request a service area map from your service provider. Echo or noise • Poor network trunk quality on the part of your service provider. End the call and dial again. You may be switched to a better-quality network trunk or phone line. • Poor local telephone line quality. End the call and dial again. You may be switched to a better-quality network trunk or phone line. Unable to select certain features. Your service provider does not support these features, or you have not applied for services that provide these features. Contact your service provider. Battery will not charge. • The battery or battery charger is damaged. Contact the dealer. • The phone’s temperature is below 0°C or higher than 45 °C. Adjust the battery charging environment to avoid extremes of temperature. • Poor contact between the battery and charger. Check all connectors to make sure all connections have been properly made. Shortened standby time • The standby time is related to your service provider system configuration. The same phone used with different service providers’ systems will not provide exactly the same length of standby time. If you are located in an area where signaling is weak, temporarily power off the phone. • The battery is depleted. In high-temperature environments, battery life will be shortened. Use a new battery. • If you are not able to connect to the network, the phone will continue to send out signals as it attempts to locate a base station. Doing so consumes battery power and will consequently shorten standby time. Change your location to one where the network is accessible, or temporarily turn off your phone. You cannot switch your phone on. Battery power has been depleted. Recharge the phone's battery. UIM card error • UIM card malfunction or damage. Take the UIM card to your service provider for testing.

Contact your service provider. • You are not within the network's service area. Check the service area with your service provider. • Poor signal. Move to an open space, or if you are inside a building, move closer to a window. You cannot answer incoming calls. You have activated the Call Firewall feature. Go to Settings > Call > Call Firewall > Current Setting, and then select Firewall off. You cannot make outgoing calls. You have activated the Call Firewall feature. Go to Settings > Call > Call Firewall > Current Setting, and then select Firewall off. PIN Code is blocked. You have entered an incorrect PIN code three consecutive times.   Contact your service provider. If the service provider provides the UIM card's PUK code, use the PUK code to unlock the UIM card. Unable to enter information into the phone book. The phone book's memory is already full. Delete unnecessary data from the Contacts.
