For Your Safety
General Care
Your handset contains delicate electronic circuitry, magnets and
battery systems. You should treat it with care and give particular
attention to the following points:
• Do not allow the handset, battery or accessories to come into
contact with liquids or moisture at any time. Do not immerse the
handset in any liquid.
• Do not place the handset alongside computer disks, credit cards,
travel cards and other magnetic media. The information contained
on disks or cards may be affected by the handset.
• Do not paint the handset.
• Do not leave the handset or the battery in places where the
temperature could exceed 60°C, e.g. on a car dashboard or a
windowsill, behind glass in direct sunlight, etc.
• Do not remove the handset’s battery while the handset is switched
on.
• Take care not to allow metal objects, such as coins or key rings to
contact or short-circuit the battery terminals.
• Do not dispose of battery in a re. The handset’s Li-ION batteries
may be safely disposed of at a Li-ION recycling point. Follow local
requirements for recycling.
• Do not put the handset’s battery in your mouth, as battery
electrolytes may be poisonous if swallowed.
• Do not attempt to dismantle the handset or any of its accessories.
• Do not put a battery into a microwave oven, dryer, or high-
pressure container.
• Do not contact battery directly to an electric outlet or cigarette
lighter charger. Use only approved charger units.
• Do not pierce battery with a sharp object such as a needle.

6
• Do not disassemble or modify the battery.
• Do not use a damaged or deformed battery.
• Do not drop, throw, or subject the handset to rough treatment.
• Do not solder the battery directly.
• Stop using the battery if abnormal heat, odor, discoloration,
deformation, or abnormal condition is detected during use,
charge, or storage.
• Remove the battery whose life cycle has expired from equipment
immediately.
• This equipment is tted with an internal battery. Take it to a qualied
service engineer when the replacement of the battery is required.
• The earpiece may become warm during normal use. Also, the
handset itself may become warm while the battery is being
charged.
• When a handset is in vibration mode, the vibration can sometimes
cause the handset to move.
• Be careful not to place the handset near heat sources (such as a
heater) or too close to the edge of the table.
• Power off your phone before you clean it. Use a damp or anti-
static cloth to clean the handset. Do not use an ordinary dry cloth
or electrostatic cloth. Do not use chemical or abrasive cleaners as
these could damage the casing.
• Remember to make backup copies of all important data on your
handset.
• Remember to recycle: the cardboard packing supplied with this
handset is ideal for recycling.
Warning:
In the unlikely event of a battery leak, take care to keep the battery
discharge away from your eyes or skin. If the leakage does come into
contact with the eyes or skin, please ush thoroughly in clean water
and consult with a doctor.

Aircraft Safety
• Power off your phone before the airplane takes off. In order to
protect airplane’s communication system from interference, it is
prohibited to use mobile phone in ight. If you want to use mobile
phone before the airplane takes off, you should get aircrew’s
permission according to safety regulations.
• If the mobile phone has the function of automatic timing power-
on, please check your alarm setting to ensure that your phone will
not be automatically powered on during the ight.
Hospital Safety
• Power off your phone and remove the battery in areas where the
use of handsets is prohibited.
• Follow the instructions given by the respective medical facility
regarding the use of handsets on their premises.
General Guidelines
• In some countries, national law prohibits private copying of
copyrighted material. Please check the national legislation of the
applicable country concerning the use of such material.
• Many jurisdictions have laws and regulations about taking pictures
in public or private areas and regarding the processing and further
use of such pictures. The manufacturer encourages its customers
to obey all laws and to respect the personal rights of others.
• Please check roaming agreement availability with your service
provider.
• The use of mobile phones is not allowed in some radiation
sensitive areas, such as hospitals, research centers and
airplanes. The user is responsible to power-off the device. If
there is any uncertainty, you should remove the battery from the
handset.

8
• Observe any signs that indicate powering off handsets, such as
those near gas stations, or explosives, and power off the handset/
device immediately.
• If you have a heart condition, be careful with the settings of call
vibration or tone volume.
• Do not allow children to play with the handset, charger or
batteries.
• Do not use the handset where blasting is in progress.
• Do not try to make a call or conversation while the temperature of
charging battery is above 50°C.
• Take care not to put your handset in the back pocket of your
trousers or skirt and then sit on it. Also, do not put your phone at
the bottom of bag where it may subject to excessive weight or
pressure. Doing so may damage the LCD and camera lens and
cause them malfunction.
• The operation of some medical electronic devices, such as
hearing aids and pacemakers, may be affected if a handset
is used next to them. Observe any caution signs and the
manufacturer’s recommendations.
• Do not leave the handset discharged or without a battery for a
long time, otherwise some data may be erased.
• Your phone contains metal, which may cause you an itch, a rash
or eczema depending on your physical condition.
Road Safety
• You must exercise proper control of your vehicle at all times. Give
your full attention to driving.
• Observe all of the recommendations contained in your local trafc
safety documentation.

9
• Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call,
if driving conditions require so. Check if local laws and/or
regulations restrict the use of handsets while driving.
• You MUST NOT stop on the hard shoulder of a motorway to
answer or make a call, except in an emergency.
• Power off your handset at a refueling point, such as a gas station,
even if you are not refueling your own car.
• Do not store or carry flammable or explosive materials in the
same compartment as the handset.
• Electronic systems in vehicle, such as anti-lock brakes, speed
control and fuel injection systems are not normally affected by
radio transmissions. The manufacturer of such equipment can
advise if it is adequately shielded from radio transmissions. If you
suspect vehicle problems caused by radio transmissions, consult
your dealer and do not power on the handset until it has been
checked by a qualied technician.
Vehicles Equipped with an Airbag
An airbag inflates with great force. Do not place objects, including
either installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area over
the airbag or in the airbag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless
equipment is improperly installed and the airbag inflates, serious
injury could result.
Third Party Equipment
The use of third party equipment, cables or accessories, not made or
authorized by ZTE, may invalidate the warranty of your handset and
also adversely affect the phone’s safety/operation.

Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
Your handset is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. When
powered on, it intermittently receives and transmits radio frequency
(RF) energy (radio waves). The transmit power level is optimized for
the best performance, and automatically reduces in the areas with
better reception.
Exposure to radio frequency energy
Radio wave exposure and Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
information:
• The handset is designed to comply with safely, requirements for
exposure to radio waves. This requirement is based on scientic
guidelines that include safety margins designed to assure the
safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
• The radio wave exposure guidelines employ a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR.
Tests for SAR are conducted using a standardized method with
the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all
used frequency bands.
• While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various
ZTE phone models, they are all designed to meet the relevant
guidelines for exposure to radio waves.
• The SAR limit recommended by the International Commission on
Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) is 2W/kg averaged
over ten (10) grams of tissue.
• The highest SAR value for this model phone tested for use at the
ear is 0.935 W/kg (10g).
Emergency Services
To make an emergency call in any country:
1. Ensure that your handset is on and in service.
