Safety Precautions

Using your phone safely

On the road

Using a phone while driving is illegal in many countries. Please follow local laws and drive safely at all times.

Near sensitive electronics

Don't use your phone near sensitive electronic equipment – particularly medical devices such as pacemakers – as it could cause them to malfunction. It can also interfere with the operation of fire detectors and other automatic-control equipment.

For more information about how your phone affects pacemakers or other electronic equipment, please contact the manufacturer or your local distributor.

Your phone may cause interference when used near TVs, radios or automated office equipment.

While flying

Your phone can cause interference with aircraft equipment, so it's essential that you follow airline regulations. If airline personnel ask you to switch off your phone, or to disable its wireless functions, please do as they say.

In a hospital

Your phone may interfere with the normal operation of medical equipment. Follow all hospital regulations and turn it off when you're asked to by posted warnings or medical staff.

At a gas station

Don't use your phone at gas stations. In fact, it's always best to turn it off whenever you're near fuels, chemicals or explosives.

Around water

Keep your phone away from water (or any other liquid). It's not a waterproof model.

Making repairs

Never take your phone apart. Please leave that to the professionals. Unauthorized repairs could break the terms of your warranty.

Broken antenna

Don't use your phone if the antenna is damaged, as it could cause injury.

Please do not touch or cover the antenna area (the upper part on the back of your phone) during a conversation to avoid affecting talk quality and consuming more battery power, which might reduce the talk time and standby time.

Around children

Keep your phone out of children's reach. It should never be used as a toy.

Original accessories

Only use the original accessories supplied with your phone or those approved by the manufacturer. Using unapproved accessories may affect performance, void the warranty, break national regulations on the use of phones, or even cause injury.

Near explosives

Turn off your phone in or near areas where explosive materials are used. Always obey local laws and turn off your phone when requested.

Emergency calls

To make an emergency call, your phone must be turned on and in an area where there's network coverage. Dial the national emergency number and touch 'send'. Explain exactly where you are and don't hang up until help has arrived.

Working temperature

The working temperature for the phone is between 0^ C and 45^ C. Please don't use the phone outside the range. Using the phone under too high or too low a temperature might cause problems.

Eyesight

Please do not use your phone in dim light for a long time to avoid damage to your eyesight.

For some people, exposure to flashing lights (such as TV) might trigger seizures or dizziness. If you have a history of seizures or epilepsy, consult a doctor before playing video games or enabling a flashlight feature on your phone.

Safety information

In order to protect your personal information and prevent disclosure of sensitive information, please set a phone password and change it from time to time, make sure to back up important data, back up the data on your phone before disposal and reset your phone.

Please do not download unknown applications or browse suspected websites in order to protect your phone from malicious applications and viruses.

At very high volume, prolonged listening to a phone can damage your hearing.

Charger care and safety

• Only plug into voltages between 110VAC and 220VAC. Using a voltage outside that range can damage the phone/charger – and cause the battery to leak or catch fire.
• Never short-circuit the charger – this may cause electrocution, overheating or damage.
• Don't charge the phone in direct sunlight or in an area where it's damp, dusty, or on a vibrating surface. Charging your phone near – or on – a TV or radio could interfere with transmission.
• Don't use the charger if the power cable is damaged. It may cause a fire or give someone an electric shock.
• Keep water well away from the charger. If the charger does get splashed by water, or any other kind of liquid, immediately unplug it to avoid overheating, fire or electrocution.
• Don't take the charger apart. It could cause injury, give you an electric shock or catch fire.
• Never touch any charger, electric cable or socket with wet hands.
• Don't place heavy objects on the electric cable.
• If the cable is damaged, don't try to fix it yourself – it could cause a fire or electrocute you.
• Always unplug the charger before you clean it.
• When unplugging the charger, hold the plug itself, rather than pulling on the cable. A damaged cable can cause electrocution or fire.

Care & Maintenance

The following advice will help you to keep your phone looking good and performing well.

• Use a soft dry cloth to clean your phone and charger. Don't use liquids such as alcohol, dilution agents or benzene.
• From time-to-time, clean the socket where the charger cable connects to the phone. Dust tends to gather there. This will ensure a good connection.
• Don't use needles, pen points or other sharp objects on the keypad or screen.
• Don't use your phone with wet hands – it could injure you and damage the phone.
• Don't use your phone in a dusty or dirty environment.
• Keep your phone away from extremes of heat – like radiators or ovens. It may explode if it gets too hot.
• If your phone gets wet and the color of the label on it changes, the warranty will be void, even if the warranty period hasn't expired.
• If there's anything wrong with the phone, battery, charger, or any accessory, please send them to your nearest service center for inspection.
