You can go to Menu > Settings > Security settings > SIM security to set the PIN.

- Create a password so only you can access your phone.

You can go to Menu > Settings > Security settings > Phone security to set the password.

▶ Set call restrictions.

You can go to Menu > Settings > Call settings > Call barring to set the restrictions.

safety precautions

This section includes all the important ‘dos and don’ts’ about using your phone safely and efficiently. It might not be the most interesting thing you’ve ever read, but it could prevent you from damaging your phone, yourself, or even someone else. So please spare a moment to take it all in. Thank you.

safe operation

• Keep the phone at least 1.5cm from your body when making or receiving a call.
• Keep the phone out of the reach of small children. They could hurt themselves.
• Don’t touch the phone with wet hands because this might give you an electric shock, hurting you and/or your phone.

vehicles and driving

• Please obey the traffic laws and regulations on the use of your phone in the country where you're driving.
• Only make or receive calls using the hands-free feature of the phone. – and only if legal where you’re driving.
  If you're not making or taking a legal hands-free call, pull off the road, park and switch off the engine before using your phone.
  ■ Switch off your phone at petrol stations, even if you are not filling your own tank.
  Electronic systems in vehicles, such as anti-lock brakes, airbags, speed control and fuel injection equipment, aren't normally affected by the radio transmissions from your phone. The manufacturer of such equipment can tell you whether it's adequately shielded from radio transmissions. However, if you suspect that problems are being caused by radio transmissions, don't turn on the phone until the problem has been checked out by a qualified technician.

- Don’t put your phone in the area over an airbag or where it could be deployed. An airbag inflates with great force and serious injury could result if you place your phone – or any other object, such as hands-free equipment – over it.

health and hospitals

• When your phone is switched on, keep it more than eight inches (20cm+) from a pacemaker. If you have a pacemaker, don’t carry the phone in your breast pocket. Also, use your ear furthest from the pacemaker to minimise the potential for interference. If you experience any problems at all, switch off the phone immediately.
  Some people are susceptible to epileptic seizures or blackouts when exposed to flashing lights. For example, when watching television or playing video games. If you’ve ever had seizures or blackouts, or if you have a family history of them, please consult your doctor before playing video games on your phone or using any feature that involves flashing lights.
  ■ Hearing aids can be affected by phones. If that's happening to you, consult the hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.

If you use any personal medical device, please consult the manufacturer to make sure it won't be affected by RF (radio frequency) energy.

- Whenever you're in a hospital or a healthcare facility, pay attention to the restrictions on the use of your phone. Please switch it off if asked.

care and cleaning

- Only use original accessories or accessories approved by your phone’s manufacturer. Using unauthorised accessories could affect your phone’s performance, damage it, cause injury or break local telecoms regulations.

■ Turn off the phone before you clean it. Use an anti-static cloth. Don’t use an ordinary dry cloth or electrostatic cloth. And don’t use chemical or abrasive cleaners, as they could damage it.

- Your phone can produce an electromagnetic field, so don’t place it near magnetic items, such as computer disks.

■ Using your phone near electrical devices such as TVs, telephones, radios and personal computers can cause interference. If you're

concerned about how your phone might affect them, consult the manufacturers before using it.

• High temperatures can shorten phone life. Don’t expose yours to direct sunlight or leave it in hot places – like on a radiator or on the dashboard of a car parked in the sunshine.
• Keep your phone dry. Liquid may damage it.
• Don’t drop, knock or harshly treat your phone. It’s a sensitive device.
• Don’t take apart the phone or its battery.
• Don’t store the phone with flammable or explosive articles.
• Don’t charge your phone without its battery.
• Don’t touch the antenna when you’re on the phone – it’ll affect call quality and possibly make it use more power than necessary.
• Don’t use other sharp objects to operate the keys or the touchscreen.
• Don’t use or leave your phone in a dusty or dirty environment.

explosives and inflammables

■ Switch off your phone before entering any potentially explosive environments, such as petrol stations, chemical depots or storage facilities.
■ Do not remove, install, or charge batteries in explosive environments.
- To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, switch off your phone when you're near electrical blasting caps, in a blasting area, or any areas where signs ask you to switch off electronic devices.
■ Obey all signs and instructions about phone usage.

flying

It's forbidden to use your mobile when flying, as it could interfere with the plane's communication systems. Please switch off your phone before take-off. You also need permission from a crew member to use your phone while the plane is on the tarmac.
If your phone has an automatic power-on feature, please check that it won't automatically switch itself on during the flight.

battery use

• Don't short-circuit the battery, as this can cause overheating or fire.
• Don't store the battery in hot places or throw it in a fire. It may explode.
• Don’t take the battery apart. It could leak chemicals, overheat, explode or ignite.
  If you don't intend to use it for a while, store the battery in a cool, dry place.
  ■ The battery can be recharged many times, but it will eventually wear out. When the operating time (talk time and standby time) is noticeably shorter than normal, the battery should be replaced.
  ■ Stop using the charger and battery when either get damaged or show evidence of ageing.
• Dispose of the battery according to local environmental regulations. Don’t throw it in your household rubbish.
  ■ Always use the original rechargeable battery or a battery approved by the phone manufacturer. Using an unauthorised battery could be dangerous and costly – damaging your phone and/or causing fires.

WARNING

In the unlikely event of a battery leak, keep the chemical discharge well away from your eyes and skin. If it does come into contact with either, immediately flush thoroughly with clean water and consult a doctor.

understanding exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy

Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves recommended by international guidelines. These guidelines were developed by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) to make sure everybody stays safe, regardless of age and health.

The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR limit for mobile devices is 2.0 W/kg and the highest SAR value for this one when tested for use at the ear was 1.11 W/kg (carried out in accordance with EN 62209-1). (Mobiles can, of course, be used in other positions as described in this guide.)

As SAR is measured at your phone's highest transmitting power, the actual SAR of this phone while operating is typically below that indicated above. This is because it automatically chooses the lowest power level required to communicate with the network.

IMPORTANT: To comply with RF exposure guidelines, please use phone no closer than of 15mm away from your body. Otherwise your RF exposure could exceed the guideline limits.

limitation of liability

Orange shall not be liable for any loss of profits or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages resulting from, arising out of, or in connection with using this product, whether or not Orange had been advised, knew or should have known the possibility of such damages. The user should refer to the enclosed warranty card for full warranty and service information.

IMPORTANT: The pictures and icons in the guide are meant for illustrative purposes only and might not look exactly like your phone or the features on it.

how to follow this guide

You'll find that in the next pages, every step you need to perform a task, or reach a menu, is shown in a straightforward condensed form, with arrows taking you from one step to another. For example: Settings > Phone settings > Time and date.

When you're asked to ‘press’ a key, it means pressing and releasing it immediately.

And the instruction to ‘hold’ a key, means you should press the key for at least two seconds before releasing it.

Makes sense? We hope so. Let's go for it...
