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 you follow airline regulations. And if airline personnel ask you to switch off your phone, or disable its wireless functions, please do as they say.

In 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 petrol station

• Don’t use your phone at petrol stations. In fact, it’s always best to switch 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. Unauthorised repairs could break the terms of your warranty.

Around children

• Keep your phone out of children’s reach. It should never be used as a toy and it might not be good for their health.

Original accessories

• Only use the original accessories supplied with your phone or those approved by the manufacturer. Using unapproved accessories may affect performance, make the warranty void, 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℃ and 40℃. Please don’t use the phone outside the range. Using the phone under too high or too low temperature might cause problems.

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

Battery care and safety

• Keep the battery in a cool, ventilated place and out of direct sunlight.

• Although the battery is rechargeable, it’ll eventually start to lose its ability to recharge. If you find that the battery won’t recharge, it’s time to replace it.

• Please don’t throw old batteries into your household rubbish.
  You’ll find there are special bins for batteries at refuse collection points. And some high street electrical stores provide a battery recycling service too.

• Never throw the battery into a fire – it’s highly inflammable and could explode, hurting you or somebody else.

• When you put the battery into your phone, there’s no need to use force. Exerting too much pressure could make it leak, overheat, explode or burst into flame.

• Never take the battery apart. This may result in leakage, overheating, explosion or fire.

• If the battery becomes hot, changes colour or shape at any time (when in use, charging or even while in storage) please stop using it immediately and replace.

• Keep the battery dry. Damp or wet conditions can cause it to overheat or corrode.

• Don’t leave the battery in direct sunlight or anywhere really hot, like in a car on a summer’s day. That could make it leak or overheat, while lowering its performance and shortening its life.

• Don’t charge the battery continuously for 24 hours. Overcharging is not good for it.

Note: Please avoid contact with the materials inside a damaged or leaking battery. If they get on your skin, wash with lots of water and seek medical assistance if required.

Charger care and safety

• Only plug into voltages between 100VAC and 240VAC. 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. And 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 mend 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 and maintenance

• Your phone is a delicate device. The following advice will help you to keep it looking good and performing well…

• Use a soft dry cloth to clean your phone, battery 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 really 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 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 colour of the label on it changes, the warranty will be void, even if the warranty period hasn’t expired.

RF exposure information (SAR)
This mobile 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 1.6W/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 poser 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 the model phone as reported to the FCC, described in this user guide, is

(W/kg)
GSM850| Head| 0.214
Body| 0.533
GSM1900| Head| 0.370
Body| 1.030
WCDMA Band V| Head| 0.350
Body| 0.624
WCDMA Band 11| Head| 0.667
 | Body| 1.090

(Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available accessories and FCC requirements.)
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they 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-V8200 PLUS

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 the positions the handset a minimum of 1.0 cm from the body. Use of other accessories 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 1.0cm from your body when the phone is switched on.
This device is compliance with SAR for general population /uncontrolled exposure limits in ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1999 and had been tested in accordance with the measurement methods and procedures specified in OET Bulletin 65 Supplement C.
