Warning: Data Connection of NGM You Color E505 Plus is active as soon as you first turn on the phone (and also after every factory data reset). If you do not have a special or "flat" rate for data connection with your SIM card, you are recommended to turn off data traffic and set up a Wi-Fi connection, in order to avoid additional costs.
Inserting the battery
Your device is provided with a lithium-ion battery and is designed to be used exclusively with original NGM batteries and chargers. Lift the cover from the slit on the lower right corner. The battery must be inserted into the backside of the phone. Insert the battery into the battery compartment with the contacts facing up, matching those of the phone. When done, put the hind cover back into position as shown in the following illustrations.
ENGLISH
Be careful if you intend to use a micro SIM card with an adapter on the SIM slot, as it might get stuck inside the slot thus impeding the correct insertion and removal of the SIM card. For these reasons, the use of card adapters is strongly discouraged.
Inserting the memory card: to better manage all the functions of NGM You Color E505 Plus, you are recommended to use a micro-SD card: insert it into the back side of the phone. After turning off the phone, remove the back cover and the battery; insert the micro-SD as shown in the figure and push it upwards.
Charging the battery
Charge the battery before starting to use the device. Use the supplied USB cable and the USB connector on the top side of the phone. Connect the charger to the provided wall socket adapter, and then the device to the USB cable. You can also charge the phone by connecting it with the PC USB port, but in this case charging will take longer. When the battery is charging, an animated icon on the screen will show the charging progress if the phone is on. Once the battery icon is filled, it is fully charged and the phone can be disconnected from the grid.
Attention: Do not connect the phone to a booting-up or running down PC to avoid voltage jumps. To preserve the functionality of the product and the integrity of the warranty, we recommend the use of original NGM chargers. Please charge the battery indoors, in a dry and favorable environment.

When the GPS function is activated, the phone starts to collect data from satellites and determines the current position.
