3. Preparation before Use
3.1 Installing the SIM Card
When registering the mobile phone number, you
can apply for two different phone numbers, two
different mobile phone network service providers
and thus obtain two SIM (Subscriber
Identification Module) cards.
With these two SIM cards, you can use all
functions of your mobile phone. The SIM cards
save the parameters needed for communications
and personal data, including PIN (Personal
Identification Number) code, phonebook, short

12
message and other extra system services.
Warning: Do not distort or scratch the SIM card
nor let it come in contact with dust or moisture.
If it is lost, please immediately contact your
network operator for help.
Before SIM card installation, please switch off the
mobile phone. The SIM card is installed on the
back of the mobile phone.
Follow the following diagram to install the SIM
card. Please insert the host SIM card into the
SIM1 slot and the slave SIM card into the SIM2
slot.
Note: If SIM card is inserted only into the SIM1
slot, then only the host works; similarly, If SIM
card is inserted only into the SIM2 slot, then only
the slave works. When two SIM cards are
inserted into the SIM1 slot and SIM2 slot
respectively, you can choose work mode freely as
you wish.
Note: As the SIM card is a small object, keep it
out of children’s touch.

13
3.2 Installing the Memory card revamp
As the mobile phone does not have enough
storage space, to use some functions, you need
to install a memory card (This mobile phone uses
T-FLASH card.)
Installing the T-FLASH card: Open the back cover
to take out the battery, release the T-Flash card
lock, insert the T-Flash card into its slot, and
restore the lock and the battery before restarting
the mobile phone.

Note: As the T-FLASH card is a small object, keep
it out of children’s touch.
3.3 Installing the Battery
The mobile phone is suitable for original battery
and accessories. When the battery is idle, it is
recommended to put it into the protection box.
Follow the following diagram to install the
battery.
Note: Do install the battery as per the diagram so
as to prevent the battery contact patch from
being damaged.

3.4 Charging the Battery
The new battery cannot reach the optimal
efficiency level unless it has undergone several
continuous complete charges and discharges.
When the battery is used up, charge it in time.
Over-discharge can damage the battery.
After the battery is charged fully, cut off the
connection of the charger with the AC power
supply and the connection with the mobile
phone.
Follow the following diagram to connect the
charger.

During charging, the battery capacity icon on the
screen flickers from the right to the left. After the
battery is charged fully, the icon is full of bars.
Slight heat during charging is normal.
Warning: When a travel charger and its
accessories are used to charge the battery, please
firstly check if they are original or recognized by
the original manufacturer. The use of other
accessories may damage your mobile phone and
cause risks! Always use them indoor and near dry
places.
3.5 Notice on using the battery
The performance of the battery is affected by
many factors, including radio barrier network
settings, signal strength, work temperature,
chosen and used functions or settings as well as
phone accessories, tone, data or other
applications.
For optimal performances, please follow the rules
below:

New battery or the battery having been idle
for long need charging for long. The
standard voltage scope for the battery is
3.6V-4.2V.
During charging, keep the battery at room
temperature or similar temperature.
With time passing by, the battery will
gradually be worn and thus needs a longer
time to charge. This is normal. However,
after normal charging, if call duration
decreases but charging time increases, you
need to buy another battery from the
original manufacturer or authorized by the
original manufacturer. The battery of
interior quality can damage your mobile
phone and cause danger!
If the phone is overused at low battery
when charging, it may take the charge
indicator a longer time to show up on the
screen.
Note: Please dispose the battery according to the
local regulations. Try to recycle the battery as
possible. Do not treat the waste battery as
common waste.
Warning: Do not throw the battery into fire so as

18
to prevent an explosion.
Warning:Charging the mobile phone by
improper means can cause an explosion. Always
refer to the related regulations for the disposal of
the battery
3.6 PIN code
PIN1 Code: It is the personal identification
number used to enter SIM and able to prevent
others using SIM1 without permission. If the
mobile phone has activated the PIN1 code
protection, when the mobile phone is switched
on, the screen will display “Input PIN”. In the
process of inputting PIN1 code, the screen will
use ‘*’ to represent the input content. While
obtaining SIM, you can obtain its PIN1 code.
PIN2 Code: It is the personal identification
number used for some special functions such as
paid call etc.
PUK Code and PUK2 Code(8-digit)
To change the locked PIN code, you need to use
PUK (Personal Unblocking Key) code. To change
the locked PIN2 code, you need to use PUK2 code.
If these two codes are not provided together with
the SIM cards, ask the local service provider for

19
them.
Warning: If the PIN code is input wrongly for
successively three times, the SIM card will be
locked. Please contact the network operator
immediately for help. Attempt to unlock the code
may make the SIM card ineffective forever!
