Before you get started

Welcome

Thanks for choosing the T-Mobile Affinity.

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

Take 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

Your mobile phone can cause some electronic devices to malfunction, so think twice before using it near a pacemaker or 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.

Also be aware that using your mobile phone near TV sets, radios and automated office equipment can interfere with signals.

In the air

Turn 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

Turn off your mobile phone in hospital where it’s forbidden to use it.

When filling up

Don’t use your mobile phone at the petrol station. And turn it off anywhere near fuels or chemicals.

At the beach

Keep your mobile phone away from water. If it gets wet, it could overheat or cause electrical parts to leak or malfunction.

Near children

Don’t let kids play with your mobile phone – it’s not a toy and could cause an injury.

Explosion areas

Follow relevant laws and regulations to the letter when they concern turning off your mobile phone in or near explosion areas.

Antenna

Do not use your mobile phone if your antenna is damaged – it may cause you injury.
