Foreword

Read this guide carefully before using your device.

All pictures and illustrations in this document are for your reference only and may differ from the final product.

Some features in this guide may not be supported by certain devices or carriers.

Unboxing your Phone

Inserting a SIM card and microSD card

Your phone features a 2-in-1 SIM card slot. You can insert two nano-SIM cards, or one nano-SIM card and one microSD card.

• The SIM card slot only supports nano-SIM cards. Contact your network provider for a new or replacement nano-SIM card.
• Only use standard nano-SIM cards to avoid damaging the SIM card tray.
• Ensure that the card is in the correct position and keep the card tray level when inserting it into your device.
• Be careful not to hurt yourself or damage your device when using the SIM eject pin.
• Store the SIM eject pin out of the reach of children to prevent accidental swallowing or injury.
• The SIM eject pin should only be used to eject the SIM card tray. Inserting the SIM eject pin into other holes may damage your device.

1 Touch and hold the power button and touch ⏻ to turn off your device.

2 To remove the card tray, insert the SIM eject pin included with your device into the small hole next to the card tray.

3 Insert a SIM card or microSD card into the card tray.

4 Insert the card tray back into your phone in the correct orientation.

Charging your device

Your device displays a low battery warning when the battery is nearly empty. Charge your device immediately to prevent it from switching off automatically.

Using a charger to charge your device

Connect your device to a socket using the factory-provided charger and USB cable.

You must use the charger and USB cable that came with your device for quicker charging speeds. Using other chargers or USB cables may cause your device to continuously restart or increase the charging time. It may also cause the charger to overheat, or even damage your device.

- If your device does not respond when you press the power button, the battery is probably empty. Charge your battery for at least 10 minutes (use the charger that came with your device), and then restart your device. - Your device automatically conducts a safety check when you connect it to a charger or other devices. If your device detects that the USB port is wet, it will automatically stop charging and display a safety message. If this message is displayed, unplug the USB cable from your device and allow the USB port to dry out completely to avoid damaging your device or battery.

Using a USB port to charge your device

If you do not have access to a charger, you can charge your device by connecting it to a computer with a USB cable.

1 When you use a USB cable to connect your device to a computer or another device, Allow access to device data? will be displayed in a popup dialog.
2 Touch No, charge only.

If another USB connection mode has been selected, swipe down from the status bar to open the notification panel. Touch File transfer via USB, and then select Charge only.

Using your USB Type-C port to charge other devices

USB Type-C connectors are reversible and can be inserted either way up. It is possible to use your device to charge another device with a USB Type-C cable.

1 Use a USB Type-C cable to connect your device to the other device.
2 On your device, swipe down from the status bar to open the notification panel, and then set the USB connection mode to Reverse charging.
3 On the other device, set the USB connection mode to Charge only.

To use another device to charge your device, set the USB connection mode to Charge only on your device, and then set the USB connection mode on the other device to Reverse charging.

Safety information

• Only use genuine Huawei batteries, chargers, and USB cables to charge your device. Third-party accessories are a potential safety hazard and may impair your device's performance.

• You can recharge your battery many times, but all batteries have a limited lifespan. If you notice a significant deterioration in your device's battery life, purchase a genuine Huawei replacement battery. Do not attempt to remove built-in batteries. If your device has a built-in battery, contact an authorised Huawei service centre for a replacement. If the battery is removable, replace it with a genuine Huawei battery.

• Your device may become warm after prolonged use or when exposed to high ambient temperatures. If your device becomes hot to the touch, stop charging it and disable unnecessary features. Place your device in a cool location and allow it to cool down to room temperature. Avoid touching the surface of your device for prolonged periods when it becomes hot.

• Charging times may vary depending on the ambient temperature and the remaining battery level.
• Avoid using your device when it is charging. Do not cover your device or the charger.

For more information on charging and battery care, visit http://consumer.huawei.com/ and search for your device's user guide.

Orange Charging, 10–90% remaining
Green Charging, at least 90% remaining. If 100% is displayed next to the battery icon in the status bar, or a charging complete message is displayed on the lock screen, this indicates that charging is complete.

Quick charging

Your device supports quick charging technology. This allows your device to automatically adjust the charging voltage and current for shorter charging times.

You must use the charger and USB cable that came with your device to use the quick charge feature. Using other chargers or USB cables may cause your device to continuously restart or increase the charging time. It may also cause the charger to overheat or damage your device or battery.
