Your phone's battery level is shown on the status

• Blinking red: The battery level is lower than 10%.
• Steady red (when charging): The battery level is
lower than 10%.
• Steady yellow (when charging): The battery level is
higher than 10%.
• Steady green (when charging): The battery is almost
or already full.
Important information about
the battery
• Rechargeable batteries have a limited lifecycle and
may eventually need to be replaced. If you notice
significantly reduced battery life, replace the
battery. Your phone's built-in battery is not user-
removable. To replace the battery, contact an
authorized service center. Do not attempt to
remove it yourself.
Return
Touch to return to the previous
screen or exit the current
application.
Home Touch to return to the home screen.
Recent Touch to display the list of recently
used applications.

• If your phone has been running for long periods of
time, especially in hot environments, heat may be
pushed to the surface of the phone. If your phone is
overheating, cease using it immediately and unplug
it from any power source to let it cool down. Do not
hold on to the phone for too long to avoid burn
injuries.
• Use the original battery, power adapter, and USB
cable to charge your phone. Using third-party
accessories may reduce your phone's performance
or pose security risks. Do not operate your phone or
cover it with any object while it is charging. Do not
cover the power adapter either.
• The time required to fully charge the battery
depends on the ambient temperature and age of the
battery.
• If your phone is low on power, it plays an alert tone
and displays a message. If the battery level is
extremely low, your phone automatically powers
off.
• If the battery power is depleted, you may not be
able to power on your phone immediately after you
begin charging the battery. This is normal. Allow
the battery to charge for a few minutes before
attempting to power on your phone.
Powering on or off your phone
• To power on your phone, press and hold the power
button.
• To power off your phone, press and hold the power
button to display an option menu, and then touch
Power off > OK .
If you are experiencing slowdown issues or the
system isn't responding properly, press and hold
the power button for 10 seconds or more to
restart your phone.

Locking and unlocking the
screen
Locking the screen not only prevents mistaken
operations from occurring without your knowledge,
but also protects your phone from unauthorized use.
You can lock and unlock your screen in different ways.
The pre-installed screen unlock method is used as an
example in this section.
Locking the screen
• Method 1: Press the power button to manually lock
the screen.
• Method 2: After being idle for a specified period of
time, your phone automatically locks its screen.
To set the screen lock method, touch on the
home screen. On the displayed
General tab, touch
Screen lock .
Unlocking the screen
If the screen is off, press the power button to turn it
on. Follow the onscreen instructions and drag to
unlock the screen or open an application.
