NOTE
The back cover of this product applies a “self-healing”
technology, which self-repairs minor scratches in just a few
minutes. Minor scratches are those cause by ordinary and normal
use of the phone. Scratches caused by abrasive surface, misuse,
including but not limited to intentional scratches, and damages
caused by a fall or dropping the product, may not disappear. The
“self-healing” results may vary depending on the extent of the
damage as well as other conditions. Any warranty on the “self-
healing” is hereby expressly excluded.

Getting Started
Before you start using the phone, you may need to
insert the Micro SIM card.
Installing the Micro SIM card
The eject button is a small round aperture on the
tray door. To install a new Micro SIM card:
1 Insert the Micro SIM ejection tool that comes
with the phone (or a thin pin) into the eject button
aperture, and push firmly but gently until the tray
pops out.

2 Remove the tray and place the Micro SIM card inside
it (see image above). There is only one possible way
to fit the card snugly into the tray.
3 Carefully reposition the tray in the slot and push it
gently back into the phone.
NOTE
Make sure the gold contact area on the card is facing
downwards.

Charging your phone
A rechargeable Li-ion polymer battery is used to
power your phone.
A USB Adapter, which is included with your phone,
is used to charge the battery. Ask your T-Mobile
sales representative for further details regarding
approved batteries and chargers.
Before using your phone for the first time, make sure
the battery is fully charged. An uncharged battery
will fully recharge after 3.5 hours.

USB Cable
Warning!
If the touch screen does not function while the phone is
in the process of charging, it may be due to an unstable
power supply. As a result, disconnect the USB cable from
the device or unplug the USB Adapter from the power
outlet.

1 Connect the USB Adapter and USB cable (as
shown on the previous page).
2 Plug the USB cable (as shown on the next image)
into the phone’s Charger/Accessory Port.
NOTE
• The battery must be fully charged initially to improve
battery lifetime.
• Your phone has an internal antenna. Be careful not to
scratch or damage this rear area, as that will cause loss
of performance.
• When charging your phone with a fully discharged
battery, the red LED indicator will briefly flash indicating
charging is occurring in a mode designed to prevent
battery damage. The blinking will stop and normal
charging will commence once a sufficient minimum
charge has been established.
