Before you get started
Welcome
Thanks for choosing the T-Mobile Vibe (E200).
This User guide is designed to help you familiarise yourself in detail
with the mobile phone's basic functions.
Keeping your phone safe
Don’t make it easy for thieves to steal or abuse your phone. Don’t
leave it lying around and set a PIN code that you change from time to
time.
If your phone is lost or stolen, tell your network provider straight away.
You’ll need to give them your phone’s IMEI – the identity number
you’ll find on the back of your mobile when you take out the battery.
Remember to make a note of it and keep in a safe place.
Safety warnings and precautions
Precautions for using your mobile phone
You don’t need a license to use your phone, but there are some laws
and precautions you need to follow.
On the road
zTake note of the local laws and regulations while driving. In the UK,
that means no chatting on your phone without a hands-free kit.
Out and about
zYour mobile phone can cause some electronic devices to
malfunction, so think twice before using it near a pacemaker or

2
other electronic medical devices, fire detectors and auto-control
equipment. For details on how your mobile phone can affect
electronic medical devices, ask the manufacturer or your local
distributor.
zAlso be aware that using your mobile phone near TV sets, radios
and automated office equipment can interfere with signals.
In the air
zTurn off your mobile phone on any airplane where it’s forbidden
to use it. It can affect the normal operation of electronic devices.
In hospital
zTurn off your mobile phone in hospital where it’s forbidden to
use it.
When filling up
zDon’t use your mobile phone at the petrol station. And turn it off
anywhere near fuels or chemicals.
At the beach
zKeep your mobile phone away from water. If it gets wet, it could
overheat or cause electrical parts to leak or malfunction.
Near children
zDon’t let kids play with your mobile phone – it’s not a toy and
could cause an injury.
Explosion areas
zFollow relevant laws and regulations to the letter when they
concern turning off your mobile phone in or near explosion areas.
Antenna
zDo not use your mobile phone if your antenna is damaged – it
may cause you injury.

3
Original accessories
zThere’s a good reason for using only original accessories or ones
authenticated by the manufacturer. Any others may affect the
mobile phone’s performance, violate your warranty provisions or
breach national regulations. They could even cause injury.
Emergency calls
zTurn on your phone, make sure you’re in a reception area, type in
the emergency number and press the Send key to dial.
Precautions for using the battery
zStore the battery in a cool, ventilated place away from direct sunlight.
zAll batteries have a limited life – which becomes shorter and
shorter the more your recharge it. If charging fails several times,
it’s time for a replacement.
zDon’t just throw your worn-out battery in the bin. Dispose of it in
designated places according to specified regulations.
zDo not throw your worn-out batteries into fire. It will ignite or
explode.
zWhen you’re installing the battery, be gentle. Pressing too hard
can cause it to leak, overheat, explode or ignite.
zDo not disassemble or reassemble the battery. It may result in
leakage, overheating, explosion or fire.
zIf the battery becomes hot, changes in color or gets deformed
during the course of use, charging or storage, stop using it
immediately and replace it.
zKeep the battery away from dampness to prevent overheating,
smoldering or erosion.
zDo not leave the battery in direct sunlight, in a car or other high-
temperature places, as this may result in leakage or overheating
– and could affect the battery’s performance and shorten its life.
zDo not keep charging the battery continuously over 24 hours.

4
Note: If the battery is damaged, avoid touching it. If your skin
comes into contact with any of the materials inside the battery,
flush it with lots of water and seek help from a doctor if necessary.
Precautions for using the charger
zUse the power voltage between 110VAC and 220VAC. Using
voltage beyond this range may cause leakage, fire or damage to
the phone and charger.
zDo not short-circuit the charger. It might cause electric shock,
smoldering or damage.
zDo not charge the battery in direct sunlight, near dampness,
dust, vibration, TV sets, or radios.
zDo not use the charger if the power cable is damaged. It might
cause fire or electric shock.
zDo not place water containers near the charger. If water or any
other kind of liquid splashes on the charger, immediately remove
the charger from the power socket to avoid overheating, fire,
electric shock or power failure.
zDo not disassemble or reassemble the charger. It might cause
injury, electric shock, fire or damage.
zDo not touch any charger, power cable or power socket with wet
hands. It might cause electric shock.
zDo not place heavy objects on top of power cables or refit power
cables. It might cause electric shock or fire.
zRemove the power plug from the socket before cleaning and
maintenance.
zHold the charger rather than pull the power cable while
removing the plug from the socket. Failure to do say might cause
damage, electric shock or fire.

Inserting and removing a SIM card
You need to insert a valid SIM card into your phone before you can
make and receive calls. All your information regarding network
connection plus many of your contacts are saved on the SIM card. So
it makes sense to keep it safe from harm – don’t touch the metal
surface and keep it far away from electricity or magnetism.
1. Turn off your phone, remove the battery and disconnect any
external power sources.
2. Put your SIM card into the socket as shown in the figure.
3. Turn off your phone and remove the battery before taking out
your SIM card.
Inserting and removing a memory card
1. Remove the battery cover.
2. Insert the memory card into the slot as shown.
3. Before you take out the card, please open the battery cover and
press the card inward to unlock.

Using and charging the battery
There’s no need to charge the battery first – you can use it as soon as
you’ve removed the packaging. To help your battery live a long and
healthy life, exhaust it completely before fully recharging it for the first
three times.
Installing the battery
1. Align the battery's contact points in the direction of the arrow
shown and insert the battery into the slot.
2. Put on the battery cover and press it gently until you hear a click.
Removing the battery
1. Make sure that your phone is switched off.
2. Remove the back cover.
3. Lift the battery up and remove it from the phone.

9
Charging the battery
1. Open the USB port cover at the left side of the phone and insert
the plug.
2. Connect the charger to an AC power socket. When the phone is
powered on and the battery is charging, the battery capacity bar
on the top-right corner of the screen will rise and fall. When the
phone is powered off and the battery is charging, you will still
see a charging indicator on the screen.
3. If the phone is used excessively without sufficient battery power,
the charging indicator will not appear on the screen immediately
and the phone might not be powered on until a few minutes after
the charging starts.
4. It usually takes about two-and-a-half hours to complete the
charging. During charging, it’s normal for the battery, phone and
charger to become warm.
5. Disconnect the charger from your phone and the socket once
the charging is completed.
