SAFETY INFORMATION
PERSONAL USE
Operation of any radio equipment including mobile phones may interfere with the function of in
adequately shielded medical devices such as hearing aids and pacemakers. You must consult t
he manufacturer of these devices or your physician before use.
In oil depots and chemical factories where explosive gas or other products are stored, the user
should pay close attention to the restriction on the use of mobile phone. Even if your phone is i
n the idle mode, it will still transmit radio frequency signals. Therefore, you must switch off wh
en requested to do so.
Do not move the antenna close to or touch any exposed part of the body when making a call.
Otherwise, it will cause minor burn to your body.
Note traffic safety. When you are driving, please do no use your mobile phone. Stop on the sid
e of the road when you do need to use it. Avoid making calls with your cellular phone in storm
y weather.
Safety Information related with children:
9Be cautious of children swallowing the small parts such as the SIM card
9Prevent children from playing with your cell phone as toys. For example, behaviors l
ike throwing, biting the phone, or immersing it into water should be avoided.
9Do not let children less than 14 years old hang the phone around the neck.

MOBILE PHONE USE
Please use only the accessories or parts offered by the manufacturer or those authorized by th
e manufacturer. Use of unauthorized accessories might influence the performance of the phone.
What’s worse, your phone might get damaged and harm will be caused to your body. It might
even violate the national regulations on the telecommunication terminal products.
Do not use chemical products like cleaning solvents or detergents to clean your phone. It is rec
ommended that you use slightly damp and static electricity proof cloth instead of cloth that is d
ry and easy to catch static electricity. Before cleaning, you should switch off your phone.
Your mobile phone produces magnetic fields. Do not place it next to magnetic storage media s
uch as computer diskettes. Operating your mobile phone close to other electrical equipment su
ch as televisions, phones, radios and personal computers may cause interference and therefore
influence the performance of your phone.
Do not expose your mobile phone to strong sunlight, direct heat or any liquids in case of any d
amage.
Harsh handling behaviors such as throwing; beating which might damage the internal integrate
d circuit of the phone should be avoided.
Please do not link it to other unnecessary equipments.

Note! Non-professionals must not try to dissemble the phone.
Phone Precautions!
9Use your phone battery only for its intended purpose, and never use any battery
charger which is damaged or worn out.
9When you unplug your phone from its charger, grasp and pull the plug, not the
power cord.
9Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean your
phone. Wipe it with a soft cloth slightly dampened in a mild soap-and-water
solution.
9Do not attempt to open the casing on your phone or its battery.
9Always keep SIM card out of children’s reach.
BATTERY USE
Do not short-circuit the battery terminals. This is dangerous and will damage the battery, produ
ce heat and may cause a fire.
Never dispose of batteries in a fire as it can cause explosion. Return waste batteries to your su
pplier or an approved recycling center. Do Not dispose along with household wastes.
Warning! If the battery case is broken, avoid contact with the contents. Wash contaminated s
kin with lots of water and seek medical attention.
Battery Precautions!

9Avoid dropping the cell phone. Dropping it, especially on a hard surface, can potenti
ally cause damage to the phone and battery. If you suspect damage to the phone o
r battery, take it to a service center for inspection.
9Never use any charger or battery that is damaged in any way.
9Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
9If you use the phone near the network’s base station, it uses less power; talk and st
andby time are greatly affected by the signal strength on the cellular network and t
he parameters set by the network operator.
9Battery charging time depends on the remaining battery charge and the type of bat
tery and charger used. The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of tim
es, but it will gradually wear out. When the operation time (talk time and standby ti
me) is noticeably shorter than normal, consider purchasing a new battery.
9If left unused, a fully charged battery will fully discharge itself over time.
9Extreme temperatures will affect the charging capacity of your battery : it may requ
ire cooling or warming first.
9Do not leave the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a car in summer or winter
conditions, as it will reduce the capacity and life of the battery. Always try to keep t
he battery at room temperature. A phone with a hot or cold battery may temporaril
y not work, even when the battery is fully charged. Batteries are particularly affecte
d by temperatures below 32°F.
9Do not place the phone in areas that may get very hot, such as on or near a cookin
g surface, cooking appliance, iron, or radiator.
9Prevent your phone or battery from getting wet. Even though they will dry and app
ear to operate normally, the circuitry could slowly corrode and pose a safety hazard.
9Avoid a battery out of the phone in coming contact with metal objects, such as coin
s, keys or jewelry.

ON THE ROAD
Before making or receiving calls acquaint yourself thoroughly with the applicable local laws and
guidelines regarding the use of mobile radio telephones and always abide by these laws.
Air bags, anti-lock brakes, cruise control and fuel injection systems are normally immune to rad
io transmissions but if you come across problems, please consult you vehicle dealer.
Turn off your mobile phone when refueling or where there are signs restricting the use of two-
way radio equipment. Do not store or carry flammable or explosive materials in the same comp
artment as your mobile phone because internal sparks could cause ignition.
Safety comes first, and is the ultimate responsibility of the driver. Please:
9Give full attention to driving – driving safely is your first responsibility.
9Use a Hands-free Kit, if available.
9If you have a Hands-free Kit make sure to pre-program numbers when possible, an
d keep calls brief and to a minimum.
9If you don’t have a handsfree kit, pull off the road and park your vehicle before ma
king or answering a call in driving conditions so require.
ON AN AIRCRAFT
Switch off your mobile phone before boarding an aircraft. Use of mobile phone is strictly forbid
den on an aircraft because of the potential interference with the telecommunication system. If

the plane has not taken off yet, you should ask the flight crew for permission before you use y
our phone.
Note! If you have set your phone to Auto Switch ON, please check the Alarm Clock setting stat
us and the Schedule menu to see the reminding time setting so that your phone will not power
on automatically during the flight.
EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES AND MATERIALS
Turn your phone off and do not remove the battery when in any area with a potential explosive
atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions. You must observe restrictions on the use of
radio equipment in fuel depots; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage
facilities; areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal
powders; areas with signs about explosive atmospheres or where blasting operations are in
progress; any other areas where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle
engines.
WIRELESS PHONE POSE A HEALTH HARZARD
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with
using wireless phones. There is no proof, however, that wireless phones are absolutely safe.
Wireless phones emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while
being used. They also emit very low levels of RF when in the stand-by mode. Whereas high
levels of RF can produce health effects(by heating tissue), exposure to low level RF that does

not produce heating effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low level
RF exposures have not found any biological effects may occur, but such findings have not been
confirmed by additional research. In some cases, other researchers have had difficulty in
reproducing those studies, or in determining the reasons for inconsistent results.
NON-IONIZING RADIATION(Exposure to Radio Frequency Signals)
Your phone is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is on, it receives and also
sends radio frequency(RF) signals. Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF
signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from
your mobile phone. RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded
electronic systems in motor vehicles. Consult your vehicle manufacturer and the manufacturer
of any equipment that has been added to the vehicle.
CAUTION! Read this information carefully before using your phone
In August 1996 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the United States with its
action in Report and Order FCC 96-326 adopted an updated safety standards for human
exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated transmitters.
Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standards previously set by both U.S and
international standards parties. The design of this phone complies with the FCC guidelines ad
these international standards.

BODY-WORN OPERATION
Body-worn operation is restricted to accessories that maintain a minimum of 1.5 cm separation
to the body and do not contain metallic components. Use of any other body-worn accessories
may not compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
For more information about RF exposure, please visit the FCC website an www.fcc.gov
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) for Wireless Phones
The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy absorbed in the head
of a user for a wireless handset. The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive testing,
measuring and calculation process. It does not represent how much RF the phone emits. All p
hone models are tested at their highest value in strict laboratory settings. But when in operatio
n, the SAR of a phone can be substantially less that the level reported to the FCC. This is beca
use of a variety of factors including its proximity to a base station antenna, phone design and o
ther factors. What is important to remember is that each phone meets strict federal guidelines.
Variations in SARs do not represent a variation in safety. All phones must meet the federal sta
ndard, which incorporates a substantial margin of safety. As stated above, variations in SAR val
ues between different model phones do not mean variations in safety. SAR values at or below t
he federal standard of 1.6W/kg are considered safe for use by the public.
The highest reported SAR values of T6QGM608 are:
PCS mode – Head: 1.34 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.162 W/kg
FCC Radio Frequency Emission
This phone meets the FCC Radio Frequency Emission Guidelines. FCC ID number: T6QGM608
More information on the phone’s SAR can be found from the following FCC website: http://ww
