8First Steps
8.1 Battery
The battery is inserted into the back of the mobile phone. The
battery is not fully charged when the mobile phone is pur-
chased, but it contains enough energy to power on the
phone. To obtain best battery performance and battery life,
let the battery discharge completely before charging it com-
pletely for the first three charging cycles.
8.1.1 Installing and Extracting the Battery
When installing the battery, insert the teeth at the top of the
battery into the corresponding notches of the mobile phone,
then press the battery down and secure it by turning the two
screws with the delivered screw driver (TORX T8). Ensure that
the battery is safely in place before powering on the phone.

Connect the i.safe PROTECTOR USB-cable with the phone as
indicated in the picture below:

Quick Start

Connect the plug with the socket of the power supply.
After charging, remove the USB-cable from the charger.
8.1.3 Battery Use
In actual use, the standby time and talk time of the mobile
phone varies with the network status, working environment
and usage.
When the power of the battery is lower than normal, the
phone will prompt you to charge it. Please charge the battery;
otherwise you may lose any files which are not saved.
If you do not charge for a long time, the phone will be pow-
ered off automatically.
Warning:
The phone may only be charged at ambient temperatures in a
range from 0°C ... 45°C. Please do not use charging equipment
if the temperature exceeds this range. Only use the i.safe
PROTECTOR USB-cable to connect to a charger. Using any
other cable may cause danger and will void the warranty.

The SIM-card holder is placed in the battery compartment.
Please remove the battery to gain access to the holder.
Unlock the SIM-card-holder by sliding it forward as indicated
on the holder. Open the holder and insert the SIM-card. Close
the holder and lock it again to safely retain the SIM-card.

9i.safe PROTECTOR
The ADVANTAGE 1.x contains specially designed safety cir-
cuits.
Connecting the phone to non-ex-approved equipment like a
computer can endanger the safety of the phone, as faults in
the non-approved equipment could lead to a power surge
into the phone large enough to destroy the safety circuits.
The i.safe PROTECTOR is a USB-cable for connecting the
phone with non-ex-approved equipment. It contains addi-
tional safety circuits to protect the phone from possible faults
in the non-ex-approved equipment.
For this reason, charging and USB-connections are only al-
lowed using the i.safe PROTECTOR.

tery, literature or packaging reminds you that all electrical
and electronic products, batteries and accumulators must be
taken to separate collection at the end of their working life.
This requirement applies in the European Union. Do not dis-
pose of these products as unsorted municipal waste.
Always return your used electronic products, batteries and
packaging materials to dedicated collection points. This way
you help prevent uncontrolled waste disposal and promote
the recycling of materials.

tailer, local waste authorities, national producer responsibility

tive.
